THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 1 7, 1 949 PAGE TWELVE THE BEND BULLETIN, BEND, OREGON m Bush Pilot Battles Crazed Filipino In Plane Flight Anchorage, Aiaska, Feb. 17 ni'i A veteran Alaska bush pilot Tuesday told of a harrowing two hour llight over rugged Alaska terrain, locked In a plane with a crazed Filipino passenger. The pilot, 35-year-old Donald Dorothy, told federal marshals how the man, Lerado Bello, San Francisco, attacked him and at tempted to strangle him as he was flying between Seward and Anchorage. Dorotny said he took off Mon day afternoon on a regular pas senger run, completely alone in the six-passenger plane with Bel- 1. Attacked From Behind Shortly after the takeoff, he said, Bello crept up behind him. and struck him on the neaa, knocking him out of the seat. "He kicked me in the moulti as I fell, knocking off my glasses and headphones," he related. "When the guy hit me, I lost control of the' plane," Dorothy said. "We were over mountains at the time, about 4,000 feet up. I felt sure we were going to smash up." Neck Choked "I must have pushed him away, for when 1 got back into the seat again he grabbed me around the neck and startea cnoKing me. "I let go the controls and fought wiln him but the controls dldn t stay locKcd and we startuu to spin again. "1 couldn't pry his fingers away from my tin oat so I liau to let him keep throttling me while I tried to pilot the plane," he said. Dorothy estimated they rocked back and forth for nearly 30 min utes until the plane got out of a stretch of turbulent air. Bello Is Strong "Then I opened the engines wide and put the nose of the ship up and got to work on Bello. He was pretty strong for his size and we went at it tooth and nail.

Craw. ford, supervisor, shows that in the past season 2,HW more per sons visited the Deschutes nation al forest than In the previous year. This gain, it is pointed out, strik ingly contrasted with conditions in otner parts of ttie faclllc north west, where a marked drop in tourists was noted. Exclusive of tourists passing through the Deschutes forest on highways, 185,440 visitors were estimated to have spent a total of 507,400 man-days on the forest. In 1947, there were 162,000 visitors who spent 357,400 man-duys on the forest. "Not only were there more vis itors in 1948, but the average length of stay exceeds that of 197 anu set a new record for forest visitors," the report states. Campgrounds received the heav iest use, as tne report shows 88, 000 campers and 23,00 picnickers suing tne.se facilities. Since the termination of the Civilian Con servation corps program, congress has not allotted money to the for est service for recreation improve ments. Tne hevay use received by forest camps this past year in many cases greatly exceeded the available facilities. The East lake forest camp was designed to ac commodate six camping parties, and throughout the camping sea son it contained an average of 25 camps. Over the July 4 holiday, this forest camp contained 43 camping parties, the maximum number camped ehere last season. Other forest camps, particularly those In the Newberry crater and at South Twin lake, experienced comparable overcrowded condi tions. It is obvious that addition al camping facilities are needed at several heavily-used forest camps on the Deschutes nutional forest, officials said. Organization camps such as the Methodist Youth camp at Suttle lake, the Crescent lake Organiza tion camp, and the Odd 1-ellows camp at Paulina lake were used by 3,700. Kesorts on the forest accounted for 24,200 visitors. Sum mer home owners and their guests were responsible for 3,000 visits. ' The survey shows that fishing was the main attraction, being re sponsible for 100,100 visitors, stunt and sent the plane into a ban ell roll. That threw the Fili pino against the ceiling and back down on the floor. Vvnen he hit, I Jumped up and beat him over the head with a fire extinguisher until it bent." After subduing his passenger, Dorothy radioed ahead to An chorage where federal marshals met trie plane and placed Bello Into a stralt-jacKet.

The Fort Rock ranger district received the heaviest use by 35,000 campers. This use was concen trated in the Newberry crater forest camps and at hunter camp spots.

Recession Will Effect World Washington, Feb. 17 U' As sistant secretary of state Willard L. Thorp said Tuesday a business recession in the United States would have "a most serious" ef fect on world recovery. He said this country must con tinue to buy foreign goods if world economic stability is to be attained. "Any recession In our economic activity," he told the joint con gressional economic committee, "would be quickly reflected in re duced purchases on our part." That, he said, would reduce the ability of foreign nations to "pay for our products." Thorp was the first witness as the house-senate committee, head ed by Sen. Joseph C. O'Mahoney, D., Wyo., resumed hearings on President Truman's economic rec ommendations. Members of the committee are divided over whether tight re strictions on consumer credit are still necessary to curb inflation in view of recent price dips. NO WHEEL. NO GO .
