Three Hundred Held By Snow Drifts At Indian Mission
Gallup New Mexico December 12. U R Corrals, fences and frame buildings at Genado Presbyterian Mission in the Navajo Reservation were demolished to provide fuel for 300 snowbound mission workers and Indian School children. The mission is 58 miles north of Gallup and has been cut off since Wednesday. Only a shaky telephonic link remained as the hospital and dormitories faced heating needs. It may take three more days to open roads after the second blizzard. Snow plows from the mission attempted to reach the mines, making only three miles in four hours amid worsening drifts. The report notes drastic economy and potential tax measures as part of broader fiscal debate.
