TMB BBtNEtANDElKWlS) 0AlMf NEWS JUNE Improper Use of Explosives Caused Mine Blast Report WASHINGTON. June 5 A senate public lands subcommittee declared today that "USP of explosives in a nonpermissiblo manner" was the immediate cause of the March 25 Centralia UlU mine disaster. Submitting a report to the scn- fftc on an investigation it made, the committee said: "In summing up the responsibility, committee members found that almost everyone concerned was guilty of negligence in one degree or the miners, the mine workers' union, slate bureaus and federal bureaus." Chairman Cordon (R-Ore.) told the senate the committee recom- rfiends federal legislation giving the U. S. bureau of mines or some other federal agency, "authority, 'not only to promulgate an adequate stofely code, but also authority to enforce it." The committee report states: "The evidence in this investigation shows that the immediate cause of explosion at the Centralia mine was the use of explosives in a nonpermissible manner; "That the blasting practice in use in this mine was contrary'both the federal mine safety code and to the Illinois statute; "That the men doing the blast- 'ing, in some instances at least, con- to law, used coal dust for stemming their shots: that is to say, coal dust was used to fill in 'the drill holes after explosives had been inserted, instead of non-explosive, non-inflammable material as required by state law." Educating Ex-GIs May Cost $12 Billion CAMBRIDGE, June 5 (JP) Omar N.

Bradley, veterans administrator, said today it may cost the government $12 billion to educate the ex-GI's. The cost for the 20 months since the war ended is nearly billion, he said and of 2,300,000 students now in colleges, 1,200,000 are veterans getting their education at government expense. Bradley, here to receive an honorary degree from Harvard University, told the Harvard Alumni Association: "By the time it is completed, it may have cost a total of $12 billion barely enough to have run the war for several more The Stand Guofd Memorial Day Dedication of Forest to Be Long Remembered By HELEN M. MCCABE Memorial Day 1947 will be long remembered by 600 men and women who came together that day in a virgin forest area in northern Wisconsin to dedicate a living memorial to three forest service men who gave their lives in World War II. Representatives of three national forests were there in 1he Nicolet, in northeastern Wisconsin, with headquarters, at Rhinelander; the Chequamegon, in which the memorial is located: and the Superior, in northern Minnesota.

There were 35 members of the regional office in Milwaukee, who had chartered a sdhool bus to make the 250-mile trip. The state of Wisconsin, for which one of the soldier dead had worked as a civilian conservation camp foreman, also was represented. And there were others, townspeople from Park Falls and Fifield, 20 miles away. Boy Scouts in little groups of three and four, and brothers and sisters and friends of the. men to whom the virgin timber was dedicated.

For all of them Memorial Day was more than a holiday. It was a day of tribute and a day of consecration. Antigo Man Honored For many of them it was a day of poignant memories. In a car on a nearby trail, a little gray- haired mother from Antigo leaned against her crutches to peer through the window at the memorial plaque bearing the name of Edward S. Kafka.

At her side was Ed's father. Steve, whose heart, like hers, was torn between grief and pride. Als tfhe solemn- faced boys and girls of the Falls High School band played the Star-Spangled Banner, their thoughts went back to 1934 when Ed was graduated from Antigo High and to their high hopes for him when he finished his course in forestry at the University of Minnesota four years later. And then, relentlessly, their memories turned to North Africa, where their son fell in battle in 1943. The music paced trfeir thus be it ever, when free men shall Between their loved homes and the war's desolation.

Within the shelter stood Mr. and Mrs. Herman Lundstrom of Biwabik. near Ruth, the widow of their son. Their eyes were fixed on a small photograph of Arnold Lundstrom as he was awarded the Bronze Star by General Rose not Jong before both men lost their lives in the Battle of the Bulge In 1945.

Tears slipped down the father's ruddy -cheeks, but they failed to dim the light dn his eyes. "Blessed with victory and peace, may the heaven-blessed land Praise the Power that has made and preserved it a 'nation. On a bench before the shelter sat Mrs. Maurice Blair, who had married high school sweetheart in Iowa in 19jfe-and cbtne. with him to the regional office in Milwaukee.

He entered the. Army in 1 1942 and was mortally wounded in France in 1944. Her eyes 'we're fixed'on. the ground for most part.
