I MERCURY DIPS HERE
Temperatures In Cleburne stood
ft at a lower point today than at
any time in the last week and a
half.
The mercury had dipped to 31
degrees at 6 a. m. today and re-
mained there until after 10 a.m.
Sixty-nine was the reading at
11:30 a. m. Sunday. From that
time, the temperature dropped to
50 degrees at 12:15 p. m.: 40
degrees at 3:30 p. m. and on to
38 degrees at midnight.
I The high mark for the last wek
tion-wide strike seemed inevitable
unless the new talks get farther
than the earlier negotiations. "
Bierne has said It is useless to
bargain with Indidivual Bell af-
filiates unless the parent Ameri-
can Telephone A Telegraph Co.
empowers them to make contract
commitments. Bell companies have
flatly turned down most union
demands.
If CWA strikes the system. It
will have the full support of the
CIO. according to CIO President
Philip Murray. This presumably
will include the full weight of the
CIO behind Bierne’s proposal to
"overuse” telephones to J a m

out the country by GWA locals,

Joined the Royal Canadian Air
Four ships every hour as the
neareh was intensified.
The priority areas were set up
after residenta sent persistent re-
ports of explosions, flares and
lights. Other planes were ordered
to'search the vast wastelands out-
side the priority sections.
Costly Search
The search was the biggest, and
costliest In the history of the
North .vest More than 7,000 men
were engaged in the operation
which alrudy has cost more than
$1,000,000.
RCAF Air Commodore M. Cos-
tello, who took charge of the
search yesterday, sald today was
the "biggest day of all in the
search because of the large con-
centration of planes” over the
area.
Aboard the missing C-54 were
soldiers returning home oil fur-
lough, and Mrs. Joyce M Espe,
wife of an air force sergeant, and
her two-year-old son, Victor. Her
husband. Sgt James R. Espe, who
snid nhe was an expectant moth-
er, hitchhiked to Whitehorse from
hin base at Mendorf, Alaska, In a
frantic effort to join the search.
The big, four-engine transport
disappeared over the treacherous
Canadian Rockies Thursday on a
flight from Anchorage, Alaska, to
Great Falls, Mont.
The first priority search area
lies near Carcross, 42 miles south
of Whitehorse, where a mechanic
reported he heard a "large ex-
plosion” about the time the Great
Falls-bound C-54 flew over the
settlement.
Await Clear Weather
The other prlority area extends
along a high mountain range
nearby. Most of the range has
been blanketed by clouds and an
effective search awaits clearing
weather.
RCAF planes circled Car-
cross Sunday but were ham-
pered by steady snowfall and
heavy overcast. A ground party
was forced, to turn back.
The enemies in this gigantic
peacetime maneuver were time,
distance and the weather. Hope
was waning that, the missing
plane's passengers and crew sur-
vived, even if they mude a safe
landing
