Two Die in Wreck Near McDowell County Town
A passenger train wreck near a McDowell County town, northwest of Bluefield, left two men dead and injured several others. Eyewitnesses described the engine leaping and dust-filled air as cars left the rails on a sharp curve. Wrecking teams cleared the scene as officials planned repairs by midnight. The Powhatan Arrow had recently returned to service after a fuel conservation order tied to the coal strike.

Cost of Living Hikes Noted by OPA Bread Prices Rise
The OPA announced a penny rise in rolls and a two cent rise in rye bread from April 20, with other bread prices up due to higher bakers costs after a 25 percent reduction in flour use. Production cuts limit supply and keep prices at March 1842 levels. The move aligns with the famine emergency program and aims to ensure adequate bread supply.
