THREE MEN STILL MISSING
But for the presence of mind, on the part of the skilful pliot. Captain Ed. Smith, a much more disastrous accident might ̈ have occurred to the ill-fated China National Aviation Corpora tion plane, Cheklang, when she overturned in a forced landing off Chilang Paint Lighthouse on Sunday,"owing to' unfavour- able weather and bad visibility.
An Intensive search is being continued by the Chinese Mari- time Customs cruiser, Hohsing, for the three missing members of the crew, their names being G. Ochrnberger, Russian co-pilot: N.. A. Chen, wireless operator; and F. H. Chen, steward.
Little hope is held out for the safety of the three missing men, though it is thought to be just possible that they were picked up by a sampan and landed elsewhere than Chilang Point.

The survivors were taken Chilang Point Lighthouse where they were later transferred to the Hohsing.
