Ward announced lie had received word from a searching pnrty that it had nil bnen a mistake---that (he men had not been reached. The food had been dropped at the feet of a band of not the marooned men, Ward said, and he dispatched a plane to aid ground parties in locating the disabled ship.

At the controls was Carl Day. blind flying party. The plane returned shortly before dawn with a report that the occupants of the disabled ship wern still huddled around their fire and none of the ground searching pat- tics was within five miles of them. Another national guard plane was dispatched with anew supply of food to be dropped by parachute. The guardsmen also planned to drop a small axe with the package of food so the men might cut wood for their fire.

State troopers using the village of Gary, six miles west of the site, as the base for their operations, pushed slowly through the woods towards the scene. They cut their way into the thick forests, taking with them a team of horses and a sleigh. It was planned to remove the victims to a Utica hospital. En route from Syracuse to Albany, the luxury liner, sister ship to one which crashed on Lost Chance Mountain in Southern New York last June, killing seven persons, fell in a sparsely-settled region in the foothills of the Adirondacks. Since the blinding snowstorm tossed them from modern luxury Into a savage siege with elemental forces of nature, they have bivouacked by their smashed ship, with nothing to eat, nothing to drink and faced with threat of freezing to death in the sub-zero weather.

Occupants of the plane were Ernest and Dale Dryer, Cleveland, and J. H. Brown, Boston, all pilots, and H. W. Hambrook, Washington, the sole passenger.

The pilot apparently noticed the general store was on fire. He could not make a landing but he came down to a low altitude and circled the village three times.

The roar of the engines awakened the villagers and drew their attention to the fire.

Nazis have no need of such a squad, the petitioners asserted, now that troops occupy the territory. More than 50 shots were fired in the Malstatt disorder. A Hitler youth was Injured. It was estimated 15 persons were injured In the disorder at Blieskastel.

International police were called in to restore order at Blieskastel when the disturbance developed at a meeting of the Catholic "Germany People's party," which Is leading the Catholic campaign against a return to Germany in the Jan. 13 plebiscite, Try to break up Meeting. Heinrich Imbush, Catholic leader, was severely injured when struck on the head with a beer mug and beaten with chairs. Catholic leaders charged that a band of 50 Nazis started the disturbance by rushing into the hall and attempting to break up the meeting. Three shots were fired before the assailants leaped from windows of the hall and fled In waiting automobiles upon the arrival of the police.

Charges that Prance Is financing Catholic opposition to Bcichsfueh- rer Hitler in the Saar Basin territory were made by Hugo Hagn, editor of a Catholic newspaper. In a public statement Hagn who resigned in protest said the German Peoples' Party, which opposes a re- i turn to Germany in the January 12 plebescite, receives "French money monthly." French mining interests, the editor asserted, were back of the alleged subsidiaries. Similar charges were made recently by the German Front, Nazi organization. CONVICT RISKS DEATH TO ESCAPE FROM PRISON Chicago, Dec. Risking death, Mario De Staffino, 19, escaped from the eleventh-floor cell room of the detective bureau early today by diving through a ventilator to an ice-coated fire escape three feet from the aperture.

De Staffino broke away from a jailer. Policeman John Joyce, while he was being transferred with three others to another cell. De Staffino was arrested after a tavern gun battle In which Benjamin Yoder, 67, was killed and Policeman Thomas Lydon and three others were wounded. Police said De Staffino and a companion had confessed more than fifty recent robberies. reputedly "talked" and disclosed for the first time the identity of their companion the night of the slayings.

The prediction was that Mrs. Gil- Hs, now a prisoner at Milan, prison, serving a comparatively mild sentence for violation of parole, would be called as a chief government witness at Chase's trial, although Prosecutor Green said he didn't believe it was necessary, The trial of Chase will bo tlie first federal murder trial under the new passed last May, providing the death penalty for the slaying of a federal agent. Banning is prescribed for federal executions the law further provides for dissection of the body in the interest of Money Mailed By Chase Authorities still remained at variance on the inception of the Chase cache at Helena. Montana authorities professed to see a possible connection, between the currency and the ransom money paid for the release of Edward J. Bremer, wealthy St.

Paul banker who was kid- naped, but E. P. Guinane, chief of the department, of justice division at San Francisco denied the money was part of the ransom sum. The money in question was mailed to Pratt by Chase October 8 but tracd by postoffice authorities! who subsequently baited several futile traps for Chase. Pratt, who said he met Chase in Sausalito, Cal, when the latter was a bootlegger, denied knowledge of Chase's implication in the Bar- rlngton slayings, or his alleged connections with Nelson and Dillinger.
