cused Red China yesterday of de

Red strategy.
Dulles made the remarks in a

days of talks with Generalissimo]
Chiang Kai-shek in Formosa.
“We returned confident that the]
Chinese Communists will not gain'

Dulles in effect invited the Pei
ping regime to match Nationalist 1
China m renouncing the use of
force to achieve its objectives.

93 Men Feared Dead
In Canadian Mine Blast
SPRINGHILL, N. S. (/P) Barriers of rock and gas held
87 men captive or dead last night in the crumpled depths of
a coal mine.
It so far has yielded six bodies.
Hope was all but abandoned for those still missing of the
working shift of 174 caught by a
sudden, shattering shift of rock,
coal and earth Thursday night in
North America’s deepest coal
mine.
Eighty-one men came out, some
staggering to safety, others on
stretchers.
If the worst fears are realized,
the upheaval will have taken
93 lives, the greatest toll in any
Canadian mine disaster since
1914.
Rescue workers fought deadly
gas and rock slides. For a time;
the gas was so bad it endangered
even those with respirators. ]
Figures on the night shift, origi
nally reported to number 166, rose
to 174 Mine officials summed up
last night: 81 survivors, 6 bodies:
recovered, 87 still missing.
With tears welling in his
eyes, a mine official told report- 1
ers all hope is gone for men
trapped in two lower levels of
the mine, named Cumberland 1
No. 2. He held out only a glim- 1
mer for the rest on a third level. •

wives and children waited anx
iously for -a miraculous rescue.
For many, it was a second agoniz
ing wait. Two years ago, Cumber
land No. 4, next to No. 2, was
rocked by an explosion that killed
39. Some of the men trapped this
time survived the one m 1956.
Gordon said the only reason
hope still was held for men at the
third level—l3.ooo feet from the
pithead—was that they had not
been located. About 36 men were
working at this level, 400 and
800 feet, respectively above the
others.
