NOVEMBER U. iSSJ A 5 Powerful Jets Usher in New Transportation Era Pan American Airways, with other airlines and merg maintained the only flight ! ing of large companies were into Cuba in the critical weeks i before the blockade became i effective, Richard W. Ems, j district sales manager for the airline raid in an addr - here! Tuesday. I Speaking before the Med-i ford Rotary club's luncheon meeting at the Rogue Valley Country club, Ems said that Pan American maintained the single flight to Havana as a good-will gesture. Refugees who packed the out-bound jet each day could pay only in pesos. The speaker, who has been with Pan-Am's organization lor the past eight years, re minded his audience that new and more powerful jets have urhered in a new era in trans portation and since their ad vent the world has shrunk in size 40 per cent. Size of Airliner Pan American's new 707-821-B jet airliners are half the length of a football field with tails rising as high as a four story building. The huge planes, which have a cruising range of 6,000 miles, can each carry in a single year the yearly passenger capacity of the Queen Mary. The co?t of one of these giant airlines is approximately $6,000,000. Planes that can be converted from passenger lo cargo car riers have recently been ac quired by Pan American. Americans who travel abroad were urged to use American planes. The greater experience of U.S. airlines and proven dependability of . American planes were cited ' as plus factors in planning nir trips abroad. With new . jet airliners. American air transport established a 1961 safety record of only one fa tality per 100 million passen ger miles. In other words, Ems said, it is five times safer lo ride in a jet plane operated by a recognized company than to ride in an automobile. A further inducement to air travel is the fact that U.S. excise taxes will be lowered from 10 to 5 per cent this . week end for domestic flights. Unless passengers stop over in U.S. cities en route over seas, no tax is involved. Maintenance Costs Pointing further to the economies nf larger, faster jet planes, Ems listed lower maintenance costs with fewer . major overhauls, and ability to make more frequent big load trips. Pooling resources noted. There is rumor that Pan American Airways and Trans World Airways will merge due to growing costs and trans-oceanic competition, the speaker said. This merger, if effected, would make the new organization the largest in the world. The strike of flight engin eers, which extended from la?t November to July, 1962, was costly lo U.S. lines, ac cording to Ems. Although Pan American was not direct ly affected, the strike cost the company in excess of $15 million. Ken Cook, United Air Lines manager here, introduce! the speaker. Two Accidents Are Reported in Area State police reported two non injury traffic accidents yesterday on Interstate 5 free way in the Gold Hill-Rogue River area. The first occurred early yes terday afternoon near Rogue River when a tire on a car driven by John Nelson West, 77, Aurora, Ore., blew out, causing tile car and house trailer it was pulling to tip over on their sides. Early last night near Gold Hill, a car driven by Aiva Newton Mauldin. 45, Grants Pass, struck the rear of a log ging truck and trailer when the hood of the car opened, police said.

' Britain, is now Field Marshal the Viscount Slim, and the manner in which he achieved his meteoric rise is de tailed in his book "Unof ficial History." Lord Slim begins his tale with a notable com mentary on human na ture: "there is nothing like seeing the other fel low run to bring back your courage." Once he stood behind a low wall with a captured Italian officer when bombs be Igan falling all around. Slim tells, "At each burst the Italian, with his arms still above his head, and I with my revolver still pointing at his belt buckle, in perfect unison, flexed our knees, and sank below the wall to rise again just in time to duck once more. We must have looked remarkably silly." Bernie Hart remembers a time when he was coaching a beauti ful Hollywood star for her first role in a Broadway play. She jwas notoriously bad study, and Hart had a very hard time get ting her ready for the opening in Boston. Two days before zero hour the worried producer called Hart and said. "Well, has she learned her lines yet?" Hart replied cheerfully, "Boss, she's letter perfect." There was a moment's pause and then he added, "That is, she's learned one letter." Swifty Morgan, a statistician of great renown, looked up from the financial page and announced, "It says here that freight car loadings are going down, but that the sale of Scotch whisky has gone up. This means only one thing; more people are getting loaded than freight cars!" C 163. t)' Bennett Cerf, Diitnbuled by Kinf Feature!
