the plane approached. Not real
izing her peril at first, she leaned
from the window and started to
wave to the cicw members, she
said.
The anny said the bomber left
Bedford, Mass., on "contact fly
ing regulation." A control tower
operator at the field said the
ceiling was 1,100 feet over Man
hattan at 9:50 a.m., the time of
the crash. The Empile State
building is 1,250 feet tall and on
foggy days its peak usually is
obscured.
Reporter Diet
The main foyer on the 34th
street (uptown) side of the build
ing was converted into an emer
gency station and was crowded
with internes. One of the first
dead to be identified was Paul
Deering, 40, reporter for the Buf
falo Couiier-Exprcss. Deering's
body was recovered from a win
dow ledge on tha 72nd floor, and
police believed he died trying
to escape from an upper floor.
Roofs of several nearby build
ings were set afire by the spray
of blazing gasoline.
Stanley Lomax, sports an
nouncer, who was driving past
the scene at the time of the blast,
said: "I heard the plane's en
gines. I looked up and then I
knew it would crash . . . Its
course was straight down Fifth
avenue and the pilot must have
known when I saw the plane it
would hit the building. He pull
ed up a little, but not enough."
Lomax said the plane struck at
a point where there is a recess
in the building, just below the
observation tower.
"The left wing catapulted up
into the fog, and then over to
ward Madison avenue, one block
west," Lomax said.
What 'Shambles'
Means Shown In
Empire State
' By JOAN YOUNGER
SEVENTY - N I N T H FLOOR,
EMPIRE STATE BUILDING,
NEW YORK, July 23 (UP) This
place is a shambles.
I've heard iiiai phrase ueed
many times before but never un
til now did I realize its meaning.
The police have set up on em
ergency sub-station in the offices
of, ithc war relief si vice, of the
national Catholic welfare council
hero, as a collection point for the
dead.
Parts of Bodies
Parts of 11 charred bodies lie
on a desk. There are the heads
of two girls, mangled torsos and
limbs still not matched. The
hair on one gill's head was not
even singed. One torso has an
arm sticking up, the elbowbent.
As I stood in the doorway, mo
mentarily aghast at the scene, a
man approached carrying a
brown paper bag.
"Where are they putting the
bodies, lady?" he asked, I pointed
toward the desk. He had picked
up part of a body from the sev
enth floor parapet.
There normally were 40 per
sons working on the 78th floor,
25 of them in the Catholic wel
fare office. Only part of the staff
was at work this Saturday morn
ing and in the confusion, none
could remember who hud report
ed to work and who had not.
Sees Body
The Catholic office files, stand
ing in the center of the room,
had almost escaped damage.
Near the files stood a coat rack,
also undamaged. Four women's
coats, a man's jacket, two
women's hats and a woman's
pocket book, dripping wet, hung
from the rack. A pocket hook
and a comb lay on the floor.
From the gaping window, 1
can sec a body lying on a para
pet on the BOth floor. On the
north side, where the plane
struck, steel girders hang
out like spaghetti over a canine:
15-foot hole. On the south side
a smaller hole showed whore one
engine of the plane shot through
and out the building.

(Continued from Page 1)
venl the onrush of flames the
same maneuver which finally
stopped the great 1033 burn.
The watersheds of Forest
Grove and Hiilsboro were en.
dangered in Clear creek and
Seine creek. Sprinklers were
I'ut over the big wooden pipes
and a crew of soldiers battled the
new flames, which encroached
during the night. The fire was
within 10 miles of Forest Grove
i town of 2750 population. All
water use except for drinking
was stopped.
Residents on Pol Hand's west
side hills and cast of Benverlon
could see flames flickering in Ihc
distance about 30 airline miles
away.
Stale 1 wester Nvls S. Rogers
termed I lie fire situation "def

the1 high wind kept the spot fires
.'stirred up.
Long Series
Latent reports from the fire-
lines placed the northern front
on Spni'je Run creek midway
between the Salmonberry-Neha
loin junction and Elsie in Clal
sop county. The entire country
for more than 15 miles south to
the Wilson river was a long se
ries ril fires.
On the southern front, the fire
moved down to the base line
'guard station and broke through
at least four miles west and far-
ther south along the south fork
( of the Tualitan and north' fork
of the Tr.e.k.
The Clatsop county fires were'
