116 Romance Found in Philadelphia (U.R) The moon, with all its romantic sig nificance, is nothing but a great big problem to scientists. The problem is how to reach it. Dr. L M. Levitt, director of the Fejs Planetarium in Philadel phia, has an idea on how to solve it. Speaking at a meeting of the Kittenhouse Astronomical society, Dr. Levitt said a rock et ship about 250 feet long and 75 feet in diameter, shaped like cigar, should do the job. The cost would be about $200,000, 000. The major problem is fueL Dr. Levitt said the best fuel to day is a mixture of alcohol and liquid oxygen which could pow er a craft at a speed of two miles per second. That isn't fast enough,' how ever. Dr. Levitt said the ship must attain the speed of "escape WORKING B OR YOU! Saving Deposits mad en or before April 10th am Interest from April 1st.

Moon by Scientists velocity," which is seven miles per second, before it can break loose from earth's gravitational pull. .-. . Dr. Levitt said step rockets could provide the extra push for the ship to reach "escape veloc ity." Once that speed is attained, the ship would revolve around the earth, like a satellite. Then, he said, it can be used as a jump ing off place for other craft, sav ing them the trouble of reaching "escape velocity" before soaring into the cosmos. The astronomer said a space ship sattellite could be used for world-wide weather predictions, scientific vacuum experiments, a radar beacon for navigators around the world and clearer observations of the universe by astronomers.

Let the Lord look down as in the days of old and He'd ' see a great deal going on beside the evil that men ; do. Productive work, for one 'item. His eye could see a sawmill almost any where' in this land of ours, for example, with trees . growing around it. Men are at work with wood all over the U. S. A, and likewise wood is working for men. . So it was with our grandpas and their grandpas. And so it will be with . the grandsons of our grandsons and. their Ameri can way of life. The seedling trees of our time will rise high to work for them in homes, news papers, furniture, ur thousands of things. ':, In 1949 the Census counted 53,000 sawmills mostly small enterprises 245 pulp mills, 768 paper mills and 650 veneer and plywood plants, all with 1,780, 000 full-time employees. The year saw us use 40,000,000,000 board feet of lumber alone. Paul Bunyan never did dream of such doings. Imagine a freight train with 1,300,000 carloads of lumber on- any railroad you know. Or think of a city of 4,000,000 houses, each having 10,000 board feet of lumber in its construction. Such is the story told by Harry T. Kendall, national . lumber leader, in a facts .and figures booklet published by American Forest Products Industries. There is much more to it, particularly on the supply fide of the picture. The true story, I say again, is fabulous beyond Paul Bunyan, and it is glorious and inspiring. $20,000,000,000 . The value of wood products contributed to the national econ omy in 1949 was-20 billion dol lars. It was double the money spent on gambling and four times as much as the money lapped up in alcoholic beverages. The point on this is to under line the first statement up yonder. The good and productive things going on here below greatly exceed the evil and the destruc Winter Skidding Tests Hope To Cut Big Truck Mishaps Clintonville, Wis. 4U.R) The National Safety Council has com pleted a long series of skidding tests on ice which it hopes will help cut down winter accidents involving big trucks. Ross G. Wilcox, -traffic engi neer for tne council, was in charge of the experiments, which lasted four weeks. They were devoted almost entirely to Gtium Si. tive. It is likely so even in Com munist Russia. Vastly more peo ple, in that darkened land are sawing wood than are making war or lapping up vodka or playing hrbacek for rasbuckniks. The propaganda of production itself is our best ally there. The. roar of the tractor. The scream, of the power saw. The machine of work is the voice of America. The world knows it. I The 20 billion dollars pro duced in a year by men and ma chines working with wood in this country could yield up moun tains of more good if the part of it taken for war taxes could be used for education. But to war it goes. And the good hope re mains in the woods. Trees for Tomorrow ... It was back in 1910, when people saw the last of the wil derness forests of the Lake States falling under the ax, that fears of a national "timber famine" grew into a near panic. A decade of destructive forest fires had added to the scare. Record-breaking lumber consumption and pro duction was viewed with alarm by many rather than as an ele ment of pride and hope in a thriving and growing America. All of this is dramatically out lined in Harry Kendall's power ful speech. He traces the effects of that Big Scare down into our own times, in which hosts of good folks see only evil in the timber industries and no hope for the forests. The volume of timber taken in our annual use of wood is in deed enormous, and in addition there is widespread killing of trees by fire and bugs. The mir acle is that the land is yet green and bright for the most part around our. country's 53,000 saw mills, for there the trees do grow and grow and grow. Cubic feet growth about equals loss, and in board feet growth climbs steadily toward a balance with the annual harvest and losses from fire, pests and disease. ; There'll be trees for tomorrow, work with wood for the future. study ' of skidding . and jack- knifing problems on ice and snow with all types of tractor and trailer trucks.. The results were recorded with motion pictures and scien tific instruments and are being studied by a sub-committee of traffic experts. Tests Complicated The National Safety. Council's committee on winter driving hazards is made up of men rep resenting automatic equipment makers, insurance executives, public . safety officials and traf fic engineers. The same com mittee has made tests in previous years with automobiles and straight trucks but the 1952 series of tests with trailer-trucks was much more complicated. Two organizations also made experimental . tests with new type equipment while the Safe ty. Council's tests were being made. A.. H. Easton, director of the truck research program at the University of Wisconsin, tested a new articulated trailer suspen sion system. Easton said the new type hitch may enable a trailer to transport far , greater loads without damaging highways. It also may have a greater resist ance to skidding. Better Than Driver Another test on the ice at Clintonville was made by Wade C. Johnson, director of tire test ing for the Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co. . Johnson tested a new braking system which may help control a heavy vehicle better on ice and snow. - It automatically "fans" or "pumps" air brakes better than a driver can do it, Johnson said. He said early tests indicate it greatly reduces skidding by its rapid on-off-on brake action, all of which is done automatically. The device brakes to a point of impending skid, releases, then repeats automatically. i The city of Natchez, Miss., be gan its history in 1700, when the French set up a trading post on the bluffs which later became famous during the Civil; War. -Australia is developing a new tobacco-growing area which is expected to produce 12,000,000 pounds of tobacco a year.
