THE BEND BULLETIN, BEND, OREGON TUESDAY, APRIL 4, 1950 PAGE SIX. Latest Saucer Stories Result In New Denials Washington, April 4 mi Two new "real" stories of flying sau cers today provoked vigorous de nials from the armed forces that they are, in reality, secret U.S. weapons. Both the air force and the navy said flatly that they are not ex perimenting with any plane or weapon that could account ior widespread reports about the fly ing discs. A spokesman for the air force, which has been investigatlnp hundreds of flying saucer stories, said the armed services are stand ing on conclusions reached last December that flying saucers Just don't exist. At the time, the air force in terpreted tiie persistent reports to "misrepresentation of various conventional objects, a mild form of mass hysteria, or hoaxes." But stories of strange objects soaring through space, often at fantastic speeds, keep cropping up. Radio commentator Henry J. Taylor and U.S. News and World Report, a weekly news magazine published here, gave the latest versions yesterday. Both stated flatly that flying saucers do ex ist, but neither quoted any au thority for their statements. Two Types Listed In a broadcast over the Amer ican Broadcasting system, Taylor said that there are two types of "flying saucers" which the mili tary has classified as secret. One, he said, is a harmless, pi lotless disk which usually disin tegrates in the air. Its purpose, he said, is a lop military secret. He said the other is the navy's so-called "flying phantom" or Jet propelled XF-5-U-1. The navy, he said, is experimenting with the radical plane at its Patuxent, Md., test center. U.S. News said simply that the saucers are revolutionary new planes, probably developed by the navy as part of its guided missile experiments. The air force issued Its denial promptly. A spokesman said: "The armed services are not doing anything that could bei traced to being the basis of re ports of flying saucers."

As for the XF-5 U-1, he said It was built two years ago, but proved a failure. The only model made, known as the "Flying Pan cake," he said, now is in storage at Langley Field, Va. He said the "Flying Phantom" actually Is the navy's first jet fighter, the McDonnell FM. It has been in use for somb time aboard carriers, he said, and in no way resembles a flying saucer.

Baldock, Oregon state highway engineer, wants to cut spending on new highway construction in half and increase work on re pairs. Baldock yesterday said he would formally recommend to slate highway commission that about half the $15,000,000 spent annually on new highway con struction be diverted to repair and strengthening of existing highways. The engineer told the commis sion that much damage had been done to the state's highways dur ing the last two years. He blamed (he damage partly on increased trucking, resulting from the pop ulation influx, and partly on ov erloading by some operators. Cutting new construction funds in hajf will not mean half as many miles of new construction, but will mean less new road mile age for a given amount of mon ey, Baldock said. He told the commission that along with strengthening old roads, it would be necessary to build new high ways stronger than those built in the past.
