C WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 20, 1937 BUSINESS PHONE 4156 NUMBER 29 World News - o By Nelson Large PASSENGERS AND CREW OF "MAINLINER" DEAD Salt Lake City, Oct. .19 Workmen began removing the Ibodies of 19 victims of the Unit ed air lines "Mainlined" today jqX ter the flying palace was found wrecked on a 10,000 foot level. The plane struck a ridge about 80 miles east of Salt Lake City, -and scattered the bodies of the passengers about the wreckage. Removal of the bodies, mail, and recoverable parts will be very difficult as the plane crash ed in an almost inaccessible area.

At such a level it -will be possible for mules and liorses to take up the work. No report as to the condition of the victims' bodies was' re ceived, and officials of the air line declined to estimate- how long it would take to bring the bodies down. It was indicated, lowever, that it may be possible ;to complete this task by night fall. When the "Mainliner" crash ed, the storm had swept it 15 miles off the regular airline be tween Cheyenne and Salt Lake City. tNINE-FOWER'S SUCCESS DEPENDS ON HITLER , London, Oct. 19 The-success of the formula for withdrawal of foreign soldiery from Spain to day rested on the decision of Germany's Chancellor Hitler. .

The problem comes up, what color was thebear and why? Solution of the three family tangle: . (1) Henry is Al's brother because (si) he couldn't be Charles' brother as Charles makes one-third of his oldest brother's salary and he could, not make -one-third of $5; (b) he is not Bud's brother, for Bud's brother is Gu's, the only one of the "oldest", brothers not in either the newspaper or sandwich business. (2) ; In point (1) we have shown that Gus is Bud's oldest brother. By elimination, .then, Irving is Charles oldest brother - (3) . EdV mother is Charles' -aunt and so he must be either Bud's or Al's "middle" brother but he cant' be Al's brother for his (Ed's) father . goes bowling with Al's father (who. is also, as . we have shown, Henry's father). . v- . ' . mr . . (4) Dave is not the brother of Henry for Dave's father is dead (his stepfather is . a dog catcher.) while Henry's is not, and since he cannot be the intermediate brother of Gua (we already know that he is J2d) . then he must be, by elimination, the brother of Irving. (5) The last answer then is that. Frank is Henry's intermediate brother. In summary: Al, Frank, Henry are brothers; Bud, Ed, Gus are brothers; Charles, Dave and Irv ing ire brothers. Easy, huh?
