Graham candidate for Congress race
Butler, Pennsylvania – (special)
Attorney John C. Graham today announced his candidacy for the Republican nomination for Congress at the April 25 primary.
Mr. Graham has sought election to Congress several times, the last two years ago when he polled Butler County over Congressman Louis E. Graham, but lost the nomination in the results from the other two counties in the district, Beaver and Lawrence.
Mr. Graham said his candidacy gives Butler County a chance “to have a representative in Congress for the first time in 20 years.”

U.S. airmen rescued from Alpine icefields
London, England (UP) –
The German DNB News Agency reported today that a number of U.S. airmen had been rescued from the icefields of the Eastern Alps. They were reported suffering from frostbite and hardly able to move.
An earlier DNB dispatch said 114 U.S. fliers who bailed out in that area were doomed to death in the snow and cold because storms were making it impossible for German Alpine guides to rescue them.

Democrats in House
Nashville, Tennessee –
Tennessee Republican leaders at their 1944 Lincoln Day dinner to hear an address by Alfred M. Landon, GOP candidate in 1936, were somewhat surprised, to say the least, at the selection of background music. Among the songs selected were “Donkey Serenade” and “Night Train to Memphis” (Memphis is the stronghold of Edward H. Crump, Democratic political boss).
