The craft carried 37 veterans of the Korean War and a crew of three. It was en route from Se- attle, Wash., to Ft. Jackson, S. C., where the veterans were to be Teleased from service, Even while the search spread, another craft crashed near Seattle, killing all seven persons aboard. This plane, a four-engine C54 of the Flying Tiger Airline, Burbank, Calif., ploughed into the’ ground of Issaquah, at the foot of Squak Mountain 15 miles east of Seattle. If the troop-carrying plane, be- lieved missing in the Bear Lake area of Southeastern Idaho, met with disaster it would be the 11th crash of military or military-char- tered planes around the rim of the Pacific Ocean in little more than two months. A jeep-mounted sheriff's headed into pg aves Peg Bear Lake last night to investigate a report by a farmer and his wife that they saw three red flares. The posse turned back because of deep snow and the rugged ter- rain after several hours but planned to try again after day- light. Jesse Schidegger and his wife, who live near Paris, Idaho, on the west side of mile-high Bear Lake, reported they saw the flares across .|the lake.

The new Road Board which came in with Gov. Dan McCarty Wednes- day ordered immediate dismissal of workers who have been loafing on the job. The rest of the 400 were ordered removed from the payroll as an economy measure. Those who have been doing a good job were given until Jan. 15 before being dis- missed and will be given two weeks salary when they leave. Cuts in proposed road construc- tion also were ordered by the The boar#’s new chairman, Rich- ard H. Simpson, said the Road Department is in the poorest fi- nancial shape in its history with a cash deficit and a carryover in projects under way. The department has a million dollars in cash on hand but has five millions worth of outstanding bills and soon will owe three mil- lions more to contractors now at work on projects. The Road Board, listening with mounting alarm to the depart- ment’s condition, also ordered the magazine Florida Highways sus- pended unless it is legally required as an organ for publishing the board’s minutes, and decreed a crackdown on users of road de- partment cars who take them out on pleasure trips. < Chairman Simpson reported one instance of three road department trucks being seen at one fishing spot on a Sunday.
