Wind, Snow Hinder Efforfs of Fliers
Fresno, Calif. w A pre
diction of gale winds and
heavy snows appeared likely
today to block the efforts of
two Army fliers to remove
the body of a dead pilot from
the High Sierra.
The fliers, Chief Warrant
Officers John Cooney, 35, of
Marlboro, Mass., and William
J. Williams, 30, of Bingham
ton, N. Y., had hoped to go
in Tuesday, but a severe storm
prevented them.
The dead man is Peter
Gring, 39, a Santa Barbara,
Calif., businessman and social
ite. He lost his life a week
ago when his helicopter
crashed near McClure Meadow
at the 9,500-foot level of
Sierra National Forest.
Cooney and Williams flew
their H21 helicopter into a
remote area of Yosemite Na
tional Forest on Monday and
rescued four stranded skiers.

Just as a hare will have
smaller ears as you find him
farther north where it is cold
er, so too you will find that
an evergreen tree will tend to
have shorter limbs as it grows
in country which has heavier
branch-breaking snows.
But an even more unusual
adjustment,-1 think, has been
made by the Lodgepole pine
of the Rocky Mountains. This
tree has worked out a method
for coping with a tree's most
deadly enemy the forest
fire! In . the mile and a half
high Rockies, lightning - set
fires are not unusual. To
meet this age-old ordeal by
fire, this pine has developed
a peculiar highly - resinous
cone, containing from 10' to
50 seeds, which remains at
tached to the tree for up to
75 years and during a fire
these cones seal up tightly.
Then, after the fire has
burned itself out and left be
hind it only a bed of black
ashes with charred trunks left
standing, these half - burned
cones, which still adhere to
the branches, open, and out
cascade a shower of tiny seeds
so tiny that if takes 100,000
to weigh a pound.
The following year I have
found young Lodgepoles al
most as thick as grass up
wards of 300,000 to the acre.
Had this pine not worked
out such a fine adaptation,
vast areas in the Rockies
would today be nothing more
than wind - blown plateaus,
sending down great freshets
of muddy water each spring.

Loy sent him family to the

"I picked it up and carried
it to the middle of the road
and the people really scat

Police Capt. G. A. Stephens
had more nerve. He un

a beeping electric bicycle

Porter Says MATS
Hurting Airlines
Washington "Competi
tion by the government-
owned and government-opera
ted airline, MATS, with U.S.
flag commercial airlines is
reducing the Civil Reserve
Air Fleet by 14 4-engine
planes, and the Government
has just admitted to me that
it would cost between $9 mil
lion and $10 million for re
placements to make up for
this blunder," Congressman
Charles O. Porter, of Oregon
declared today.
"By allowing the govern
ment airline, MATS, to take
away traffic that should be
carried by commercial air
lines, the Administration has
put several commercial air
lines out of business and
threatens to cut down several
more," the Oregon Congress
man stated.
"As I noted in. my speech
on the floor of the House on
March 5, the results of this
MATS competition with com
mercial airlines will be that
there will be 14 fever 4
engine commercial planes on
hand ready to respond to the
country's defense when the
whistle blows. I asked the
Civil Aeronautics Board how
much it would cost this gov
ernment to replace these
planes that are being sold off
(mostly to foreign countries)
by companies bankrupted by
MATS competition and CAB
Chairman James R. Durfee
has replied: 'Between $9 mil
lion and $10 million'."

WHICH ONE DO YOU WANT ?
you can have your dream bouse -this easy way!
A dream? Not at all. Thousands of
people with modest incomes have been
able to save the down payment, or the
whole price, of the home of their dreams
because they invested in U. S. Savings
Bonds on the Payroll Savings Plan where
they work.
You, too, can accumulate enough money
for the down payment on a home. Of
enough for your children's college edu
cation or a retirement income. And by
saving only a few dollars a week, too.
The answer is that you save systematically
on the Payroll Savings Plan. AH you have
to do is tell your pay office how much
you've decided to save each payday (it
can .be as little as a couple of dollars).
After that your money is saved for you,
before you get your salary. Then each
time enough has accumulated, it is in
vested in a Bond; and the Bond turned
over to you.
And remember your U. S. Savings
Bonds now will bring you an average of
3 interest, compounded semiannually,
for 19 years and 8 months. That's why the
money you put into Bonds now growl
to such a surprisingly big sum.
wliy don't you start today? Sign, where
you work, for the Payroll Savings Plan.
Or, if you're self-employed, join the
Bond-A-Month Plan, at your bank.
