I ! ; ; TOKYO, April 16 (U.R) News of the world's worst mining dis- i aster in which 1,527 Chinese and Koreans were killed and 268 injured, in-jured, was made public today by General Douglas MacArthur's headquarters. The explosion which caused the tragedy occurred at the Honkeiku ; Colliery in the Ienhsihu coalfield of Manchuria on April 26, 1942. The Japanese had kept the news from the outside world until today's to-day's announcement. K. V. Cammock, of headquarters' headquart-ers' mining and geology division, said a short circuit occurred in the mine's electrical system, igniting ig-niting methane gas and causing a blast that trapped 4,400 workers. A power failure stopped the centilating system, Cammack said, and officials did not attempt to turn the fans on after the blast for fear of the flow of air would spread the fire. He said had the ventilating system sys-tem been turned on after the blast, more lives might have been saved. Most of the victims died of carbon monoxide poisoning Cammack said. Hadquarters said the only other mine disaster comparable compar-able to the Manchuria tragedy trage-dy occurred near Calais, France, in 1906 when 1,110 workers were killed. Two other Oriental mine disas ters ranked third and fourth, re spectively, on the world list. headquarters said.
