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

per second.
That isn't fast enough,' how
ever. Dr. Levitt said the ship
must attain the speed of "escape

. Dr. Levitt said step rockets
could provide the extra push for
the ship to reach "escape veloc

the ship would revolve around
the earth, like a satellite. Then,
he said, it can be used as a jump

Wood Works for Ton ...
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.
