Fire Biggest

On the heela of two of the na
tion wont air tragedies, the Na
tional 1'lre protection aaaoclatlon
announce that 67 per cent of all
aviation accident reported to the
NKPA ahow that fire wa either
the chum! or reault.
Calling attention to their "itand.
rd operating procedure for aircraft
accident" which waa panned by the
NKPA memberahln at their Slat an
nual meeting In Chicago, May 36-29,
the aMociatlon emphasized that
rescue without fire control la moat
often a "fatally delayed formality."
In an article appearing In the
NKPA auartcrly for April, 1847. the
curea for crash fire were luted by
ueorge H. rryon oi tsoaion, aecre
tary of the NKPA committee on
aviation and airport fire protection.
Theae recommendation! were: Mi
lllgh-flaiih gasoline In lieu of stand
ard grade; 1 2 1 non-flammable hy
draulic fluid: 3 non-flammable
aircraft lubricant: '4i flre-retard-
ant fabric; 'Si cranh-prodf fuel
tanks; - 8 flre-reltant aircraft
fuel and oil line piping; 7i craih
Impact fire extinguishing ayatenu:
i8 Improved design ol air-flow
configuration within fuselage and
whirs; i 0 Improved resistance In
aircraft structures to crash damage;
UOi aegregatlon of fir hazard
from ignition sources.
The fire deaths In the LaOuardla

come up with a neat scheme for
financing its new post and
auxiliary home. As the area Is
uniquely adapted to the growing
of illy bulbs, the kind most adapt
able for Kaater forcing, and thla
year's crop Is bringing on many
large bulbs, the members are pool
ing part of their digging and selling
them, mail order, through a 'Nation
al advertising plan, All the profits
from the venture will be turned
into a fund for reconstructing and
furnishing a mess hall the organi
sation bought at Camp White and
has already trucked across 160
miles of Oregon mountain road.
The post Is set up to make ship
menu of one to thousands of over
size bulbs, each package containing
simple instructions for further
growing. Indoors or out. anywhere
In the country. The grower's name
and address will also go Into each
package.
Previously, there have not been
enough bulbs to supply the home
gardener, the florist taking the
whole crop, and this Is the first
time these widely advertised hvbrtd
Illy bulbs have been made available
to the oubllc. They were all propa
eated from a single sport developed
bv the late Svdnev Croft. In 1M5.
The bulbs make ideal, living gifts.
