equal to a wage bhoost of 31 cents

tion, they rejected a reccmmenda
tion by a presidential fact-finding
board that they be granted a 40-

18 cents an hour.
The unon now was a contract
with the Delaware, Lackawanna

requested of the other lines. That
agreement raised the pay of switch
foremen or yard conductors from
$13.06 a day to $15.67; helpers or
yard brakemen from $12.21 to
$14.65, and switch tenders from
$10.71 to $12.86.
The strike deadline at 6 a. m.
local time yesterday found the
four railroads ready tc halt op
erations. They had announced
earlier that if final negotiations
failed of a settlement, they would
not even try to run any trains dur
ing the strike.
They announced the layoff of at
least 35,000 other employes, most
of them effective today.
Settlement negotiations con
tinued until shortly before the
strike deadline under supervision
of the National (railway) Media
tion Board. In a final effort, T. E.
Bickers, board secretary, made a
telegraphic appeal to union presi
dent Arthur J. Glover to postpone
the walkout.
Glover replied from his home in
Buffalo, N. Y. that the railroads
had “not only offered no solution
to the dispute, but absolutely re
fused to bargain in the spirit in
tended by the Railway Labor Act.
“It is our position,” Glover add
ed, “that no board heard our dis
pute in accordance with the pro
visions of the Railway Labor Act,
consequently there eould be no
board recommendations that would
apply to us.”

WEST UNION, W. Va., June 26.— (AP) —At least 21
persons were dead and 33 missing today in the wake of
flash floods that struck a six-county area of north-central
West Virginia early Sunday morning. The surging torrents
rolled out of the darkness without warming. ;
Authorities fear the toll may go much higher. At least

votes to Graham’s 257,156. The to
tal vote, 534,828, exceeded that for
any previous Democratic primary
except the record 618,479 cast May
27 when Graham led Smith.
Since the state is overwhelm
ingly democratic, the winner of
the Demoeratic primary is assured
of victory in the November general
election.
Smith said Graham once fav
ored FEPC and had failed to sup
port Southern senators in defeat
ing the federal measure. He also
said Graham was too free in en
dorsing organizations later termed
sublversive by the Attorney-Gen
eral.

is known to be alive. The body
of Mrs. Bailey, about 60, has been
recovered, and another body, be
lieved to be that of a five-months
old grandson, also has been found.
The Bailey home was directly in
the path of the flood. Sheriff Paul
B. Davis said the house was car
ried nearly two miles downstream.
The only known survivor of the
family is charles Bailey, a son,
who is in a West Union Hospital
with a fractured leg, cuts and
bruises.
Six members of the B. J. Cooper
family at Smithburg also were
listed as dead in the swirling wat
ers, and three members of another
family there were killed when their
home was pounded into bits
against a railway trestle.
Berea, a little agricultural com
munity located on a horse shoe
curve of the South fork of the
Hughes river south of here, also
was hard hit. Six persons were
known dead there, including a
grandmother and two of her
grandchildren.
Postmaster Ray Bonnell said
th 2 toll at Berea might have been
higher except for the Paul Revere
actions of two of the town’s young
men, Harland Hodge and Chatles
Bridge, who dashed through the
community knocking on doors to
warn residents, X ek
Property damage is expected to
run high. In West Union, 200
homes were destroyed. City offi
cials at Weston, 25 miles to the
southeast on the West Fork river,
estimated the "damage there at
$2,000,000.
All of Weston except sections on
the hillsides was under water at
one time.
Two of the victims at Berea
Mrs. Clara Bee, 70, and her bro
ther, William Gribble, 72, of Cle
veland, lost their lives trying to
warn the other four who died
there.
Truman’s committee on Civil
rights, said flatly he was opposed
to compulsory FEPC. He also de
clared he never knowingly was a
member of any Communist-domi
nated group.
On May 27, Graham led a field
of four candidates in the regular
Democratic Senatorial Primary.
Graham had 303,605 votes and
Smith, 250,222. Trailing far be
hind were former U. S. Senator

Counteraffack
By The Assoclated Press
A Communist northern spear
head drove within nine miles of
Seoul tonight (Korean time) and
fear was expressed that it might
reach the capital of the invaded
southern republic before dawn.
It appeared that the Soviet-sup
ported troops might be on the out
skirts of Seoul before promised U.
S. military aid arrives from Japan.
Tanks and artillery of northern
Korea’s army crumbled Southern
resistance at Uijongbu, only 12
miles from Seoul. They captured
the town and sent a flying column
down the Uijongbu Valley, where
a Southern counteroffensive failed
miserably earlier today.
Two Southern divisions totalling
20,000 men had dug in outside
Uijongbu but they were pushed
aside by the armored forces from
the North which rolled on toward
the capital.
Another 10,000 Southern troons
were in trouble at Kangmung, on
the east coast 15 miles south of the
38th parallel—the dividing line be
tween the two nations, erossed by
the invading Northern armies on
Sunday. Perhaps a third of the
military forces of the American
supported South Korean republic
'was imperiled.
© In Seoul the U. S. Embassy
burned its important secret papers.
Air raid sirens screeched. The city
buzzed after four Northern planes
strafed the streets. President Syng
man Rhee and his cabinet were in
emergency session. Two ships
carrying 700 dependents of Ameri
cans in Korea sailed from Ichon
for Fukuoaka, Japan, with U. S.
Naval and air escort.
This was the latest word from
a newly-erupted baitlefront that
caused grave concern in all world
capitals and called President Tru
man back to Washington to confer
with his top officials on what can
be done to save Western-recog
nized South Korea from Commun
ist conquest.
The headquarters of Gen. Mac-
Arthur in Tokyo estimated that
70,000 troops from Soviet-support
ed North Korea, spearheaded by
70 tanks, launched the invasion on
Sunday—long a favoriate day for
surprise attacks.
The U. N. Security Council,
meeting in extraordinary session
without Russia, called on both
sides to cease fire. It took the
action at the strong urging of the
United States, which also direeted
the speeding of military aid to the
embattled South Koreans.
About 30,000 South Xorean
troops were endangered at two
points along the 38ta parallel—the
dividing ‘line between North and
South Korea. i s =
The invaders’ artillery fire dis
persed the defenders at Jijongbu,
only 12 miles north of Seoul. South
Korean forces reeled in retreat
under the assault, launched at
dusk. Advices. reaching Seoul
said the retreating Southern troops
were in dire straits. Still another
segment of the Southern army was
in trouble at Kangmung, 15 miles
south of the 38th parallel on the
east coast. : . :
The east coast division was be
ing attacked from both the north
and south. It sent an urgent call
for reinformements. An American
military official sai dhe was un
certain whether they would be
forthcoming. Morzle in Seoul it
self was high, despite strafing of
several downtown streets by
Northern planes.
The Southern forces started a
counteroffensive earlier today
after halting the Northern invad
ers yesterday. South Korea threw
the seventh and second divisions
of 10,000 men each into the fight.

Search Sfill 0
ST. JOSEPH, MICH., June 26—
(AP)—A grim search got under
way today in the depths of lake
Michigan where it is virtually cer=
tain that the lost Northwest Air
lines plane went down.
An airline representative left
little doubt that resort community
was the scene of{ioom for the
capacity-loaded snip when he
identified a torn piece of blue
blanket early today. The blanket
was marked with the letters NW.
Other traces of plane wreckage
an dpieces of human bodies were
found on the lake waters Ilast
night. An oil slick has been sight
ed.
There was only the faintest hope
that any of the 58 passengers
aboard the airship could have lived
through the worst disaster in this
country’s history.
Paul Benscoter, sent here by
NWA to help direct the search for
the big plane, looked over some
grim tokens of the crash—bits of
bodies, blanket fragments, a man’s
fur-collared jacket, other pieces of
clothing, part of a suitcase,
ury Department put oa tour to
remind the natiom that thrift is a
“cornerstone of Independence”

The bell, which is one of fifty
two donated by America’s copper
producing companies, will impress
everyone with its size. It weighs
over two thousand pounds and
measures three feet from the lip
over the crown.
Lasting Reminder
Bellmaster claim that the bell
which is more than eight per cent
copger, will last for centuries and
be a permanent reminder of Am
erican ideals.
After the tour of Georgia Secre
tary of the Treasury John W. Sny
der will present it to the people
of the state for permanent exhibit.
“We sincerely hope that the
