U.S. Coast Guardsmen, who spotted the Boeing 720-B from a helicopter: landed and found no indication that any of the 35 pas- sengers and eight crew mem- bers had survived.

The Armed Force Hike Seen For Malaya KUALA LUMPUR, Malaya (Reuters)--The government to- day announced plans for an "'im- mediate' and "substantial" orate as a result of their dispute over the British-backed plan to form the Malaysia Federation linking Malaya and Singapore with Borneo territories of Bru- nei, Sarawak and North Borneo.

The death toll was three per cent above the 1961 total of 43,500 persons killed in accidents 43 crash scene is nine miles from the nearest road. Coast Guard Lt. - Cmdrs. James Dillon and W. C. Wai- lace, who spied the wreck near darkness, landed gingerly on boggy ground nearby and e x- plored the scene. They said they were drawn to the area by "fires which were little parts of the burning plane." "All around us were little pieces of wreckage and a lot of luggage," Dillon said. '"Mr. Wal- lace said it looked as if all the bodies were intact. All he had was a flashlight and he couldn't see too much. The tail was broken off. The fuselage . was badly burned--gutted."' Dillon said it looked as if the airliner's pilot was "trying to bring her in' for some un- known emergency cause. Ground radio contact with the jetliner suddenly broke off at 1:42 p.m. EST.

GENEVA (AP) -- President Kennedy's chief disarmament negotiator began a series of private talks with neutral dele- gates at the 17-nation disarma- ment conference today in an at- tempt to bring the maim focus of the talks back to a ban on nuclear weapon tests. U.S. delegate William C. Fos- ter's first meeting was with Ab- del Fattah Hassan of the United Arab Republic. He also sched- uled talks with the Swedish and Nigerian delegations and with the delegates from Britain, It- aly and Canada. Vasily .V Kuznetsov, .

OTTAWA (CP) -- Unemploy- ment in Canada increased by 127,000 from mid-December to a total 541,000 at mid-January, the bureau of statistics and labor department said today in a joint statement. The jobless total was 4,000 less than the 545,000 unemplo: in January last year. The month's rise in unemploy- ment--described as 'about a normal change for the time of year"--pushed the jobless nate to 8.3 per cent of the labor force from 6.3 per cent in December. This compared with rates of 8.5 per cent a year earlier and 10.8 per cent two years ago. The number of persons with jobs fell sharply by 204,000 be- y' tween mid-December and mid- January to a total 5,956,000, as a result of seasonal slackening in outdoor activities and in re- tail trade, which had been busy before Christmas.
