Newspaper Page TextNewsman Of B-52 N Editors: Russell Nielsen is the first newsman to accom pany a crew on a flight in a B52 nuclear bomber, the. Strategic Air Command's main weapon of retaliation in case of attack. Describes Flight uclear Bomber BY RUSSELL NIELSEN Spokane (UPI) It takes a good plane and a good crew to deliver a nuclear bomb to a target halfway around the world and Maj. Rodney Bar to has both. Should enemy planes or missiles wing toward this country, Barto's crew would have its sleek, eight-jet bomb er in the air within 15 minutes to retaliate. This requires practice and that was the purpose of this flight. Every phase of a flight to the enemy's homeland must be practiced until the crew men can perform their various duties mechanically. Today's mission involved serial refueling, navigation and bombing. Lt. Col. George Cameron, commander of the 326th Bomb Squadron at Fairchild Air Force Base here, was at the controls as the B52 shrieked down the runway and then began a fast climb to rendez vous with a KC135 tanker at 37,000 feet. Refueling Practice ' Cameron slowly slipped the lomber through the down thrust of the tanker's engines until it was just below and behind the 135. The extended refueling boom made its con nection just behind the cock pit, and Cameron worked to keep the plane level. The tanker's tail hovered just above the bomber's cockpit. Barto, the aircraft com mander and a pilot of various types of bombers since World "War II, took the next refuel un. Once, after the connec tion was made, the B52 be gan to swing sharply from ide to side because of the tanker's downthrust. Barto chuckled. into the in ,rcom to S.Sgt. James Hill, "Stay with me, gunner." The gunner is positioned in the remote tail turret. His only connection with the crew is by intercom and he has a rough ride during refuel oper ations. 4 For two, hours, Cameron and Barto practiced these high-speed hookups which re quire great flying skill, but lastly increase the bomber's range. Then we headed east on a navigational exercise to Minot, N.D. The bomber loafed along at about 450 miles per hour, and at 39,000 feet the ride was smoother than if we had been in the finest car on the finest highway. Over Salt Lake At Minot, we climbed to 41,000 and headed southwest to Salt Lake City. The brown of the Montana plains gave way to the white-topped green of the Wyoming mountains, and soon the Great Salt Lake appeared as a huge steel-blue blob. Here we veered northwest ior a bombing run on Boise, Idaho. Capt. William 'Jent, tha navigator, and Capt. James Weiss, the radarman, Huddled over their table downstairs and cross-checked the information gathered by iheir instruments. The mater ial was fed into a ballistics control panel. Weiss took command of the plane during the final mo ments, took it in on radar, and made a simulated bomb drop which if real, would have sent the unsuspecting city ris ing in a column of dust. Several more bomb runs nd then we headed home to Spokane. he Birds Tour Plant Of Mai! Tribune The Merry Blue Birds of Roosevelt school toured the Hail Tribune plant Monday fternoon, with Gerald La tham, business manager, as guide.

(UPI Mer chant Sam" Bruce was more than faintly suspicious when he read the name on the check. Then he read the sign er's address and really began to worry. He called the bank on which the check was drawn. The signer Yes the check was all right, bank oficials assured Bruce. The signer's name was really Blue Monday and he really lived on Dead Man's Alley in Langley, S.C. Reulher Plans Negotiations On Wednesday Detroit (UPI) United Auto Workers President Walt er P. Reuther will enter nego tiations at General Motors Wednesday or Thursday in a final-hour attempt to jolt the company from its "take it or leave it" contract renewal of fer. i UAW Vice President Leon and Woodcock revealed Re uther will enter the talks be fore the contract expires Thursday midnight. Woodcock said whether Reuther shows up at the General Motors Building Wednesday or Thurs day "depends on devlop ments, presumably on wheth er GM starts to budge on the union' minimum demands. The UAW this morning ask ed for immediate lifting of news blackouts on negotia tions on GM, Ford and Chry sler. General Motors and Ford declined to erase bargaining secrecy immediately and held the union to the 24-hour no tice agreement. The blackouts will be lifted at GM at 9:57 a.m. and at Ford at 10:10 a.m. Woocdock strongly indi cated the union will charge the company is barganing in bad faith and perhaps will call for outside mediation. Woodcock said there will be no new union proposal. MAIt TRIBUNE, MedforJ, Oregon, Tueiday, May 27, 1958 I y . c 1 PlRMIlRY9 Ittk Jllllt St! fiNr? A MONTH " 'Bft jr TOWNSEND ROMANCE RUMORS Princess Margaret passes a line of nurses during her visit to Moorfield Eye Hospital in London for giving of annual prizes. The same day, an official Palace announcement denied rumors that the Princess' romance with Peter Townsend, with whom she has had three dates in the last week, was on again. Showdown Starts On Alaska Statehood Washington (UPI) Show down voting on efforts to kill the Alaska statehood bill started in the House today with President Eisenhower re ported to have thrown his ac tive support behind the meas ure. Statehood boosters express ed cautious confidence they would have the margin need ed to pass the bill and send it to the Senate. Debate on the measure ended late Mon day. , "Officials in the White House" were reported to have been contacting congressmen by telephone to urge them to vote for the bill. The President met today with congressional Republi can ' leaders for the usual weekly conference. Probable topic for conversation was the White House announcement of Monday that the President had "no present intentions" of recommending any tax re ductions this year other than its previously - proposed tax relief for small business. It appeared, however, that congress appeared in a mood to override the recommenda tion and cut some federal ex cise sales taxes. The House Democratic lead ership threw its support be hind Eisenhower's plea to continue present excise and corporation taxes for another year. But there were stirrings of revolt among members of the House ways and means committee and even louder rumblings in the Senate. The Senate met to debate the administration's unem ployment compensation bill with a final vote expected to day or Wednesday. Liberal Senate Democrats and Repub licans promised to try to broaden and liberalize the House-passed measure. The House subcommittee in vestigating federal regulatory agencies promised to produce a series of letters today be tween high administration of ficials and the agencies about pending cases. Other congressional news: Rackets: Testimony before the Senate Rackets committee indicated brotherly love is a virtue some unions might find it difficult to afford. Commit tee Counsel Robert F. Ken nedy said records of two New York butcher union locals in New York showed two broth ers. Max and Louis Block, to gether with their sister and brother-in-law, have received $241,506 in salaries and ex penses from the union in the past three'years. Housing: A Senate housing committee approved a hous ing bill which would include a $3,500,000,000 10-year ex pansion in slum clearance programs and a $400 million increase in college housing Droerams. Railroads: The Senate com merce committee approved a broad program of aid to the nation's hard - pressed r a i 1 roads, including repeal of ex cise . taxes and ; guaranteed loans. Evaporation from the sur face of the Great Lakes is said to vary from about 20 to as much as 30 inches a year. Study Continues On News Services Washington (U.P.I.)
