Mercy Missions
DENVER, Nov. 12-;P-The
greatest series of mercy missions
in Colorado's history winged and
plowed over eastern and southern
parts of the state in a struggle
against mountainous snowdrifts to
save both human beings and livestock.
Success climaxed many of the
trips, but darkness found the provision-carrying
work still unfin
ished and the mercy tasks will
continue tomorrow.
Sub-freezing temperatures pre
vented the thawing of the drifts
some of them 10 to 18 feet high
piled up by snowstorms which
have whipped the area since early
last week. Clear skies aided the
rescue efforts.
