In keeping with the condition of their shoes the stock- ings were a mass of holes. The children were provided with shoes, two pairs of woolen stockings, overshoes and underwear, Dahlen said. Another fact reported by volunteer investigators is that many families are sleeping cold. Bed coverings do wear out and many persons find it difficult to replace them. A start in relieving this condition was made Wednesday when the Bis- marck War Mothers donated two quilts which they had made. They asked that they be given to families with children.

They were the German passenger Walter Schuberk, the wireless operator Von Bemmel and the stewardess, Frau- lien von Bon Gertman. The condi- tion of the men was grave; that of the stewardess, who leaped. from the craft before it caught fire, was not dangerous. Trapped by twisted steel and flames, de la Clerva died with the former Swedish secretary of state, Admiral Arvid Lindman, and 12 others, in- cluding two of the crew. No Ameri- cans were aboard, 17 Person Aboard There were 17 persons aboard the airliner, The “K.L.M.”" announced that among other dead was: Baron Gottfried Meyern-Hohenburg of Germany, who is the former hus- band of the Viennese actress, Luli Desete.
