raised the question of what would
happen in the event of an accident
involving one of Kingsley Field's
muclear-armed F-101B Voodoos.
Although Kingsley's flying safe
ty record has been outstanding,
the base is constantly practicing
air and ground emergency proce
dures. The base's rescue uni
were on the scene Sunday m i n-
ules after the crash.
Kingsley's lone fatality in two
years of flying was Lt. Clarence!
E. Peoples, a radar observer whoi
ejected at sea in April 1'JtiO after
the canopy inadvertently ripped
off an F-101B in flight. Although
Peoples died, the pilot, Capt.
Coleman Baker, brought the crip
pled jet back to the field.
The Voodoo is capable of car
rying two nuclear "Genie" rock
ets and two "falcon" heat or ra
dar-seeking missiles. Chances are
that in normal flying activities,
the 101s at Kingsley would not
be nuclear armed. Unlike Strate
gic Air Command bombers, which
carry atomic weapons in train
ing, interceptors usually carry
dummy weapons on training mis-i
sions.
Even if a Voodoo were armed
with "Genies," there would be
no danger from nuclear explosion
in the event of a crash. The "Ge
nie" cannot be exploded acci
dentally. It must be detonated by
a precise method by the aircrew
and radar-controlled weapons sys
tem. The most serious hazard in
any jet crash is the possible ex
plosion of thousands of pounds of
jhigh octane jet fuel.
A lesser danger in a 101 crash
would be the possible detonation
of high explosives carried in the
weapons. The explosives could be
triggered by impact with the
ground. Air Force officials have'
cautioned that radioactive mate-:
rial could be scattered in the
area.
If a nuclear-armed interceptor,
or bomber crashed locally, sev
eral Kingsley Field units would
go into action. A special nuclear
weapons team of experts would
monitor the area for radioactiv
ity. Fire fighting units would be
in action and Air Police would
secure the area from curiosity
seekers.
A fully equipped rescue heli
copter would be scrambled from
base operations to stand by to
pick up survivors and rush them
to medical - attention. Medical
teams, including a doctor, would
be dispatched from the base dis
pensary. A giant "dinosaur" type
crane would lift chunks of wreck
age.
Tl. n..kli,. ,...M o.-.-icl in roc,

and possibly cost precious mill-:

AN IMPORTANT cog in the disaster rescue squad oper
ations at Kingsley Field is this helicopter, the H-19. It
was the helicopter that was the first unit from Kingsley
over the wreck scene, and airlifted the injured to the base
dispensary.

Ejection Procedure Is

WASHINGTON lUPI' - Presi-i
dent Kennedy wants Congress!
lo provide for more research on
new uses for agricultural products
a field in which the Congress it-j
self has been anxious lo get more
action for a long time.
Kennedy's special farm message
last week called for expansion of,
agricultural research in threcl
fields marketing, nutrition, and
especially utilization.
The President put special em
phasis on utilization research the
kind of studies which have al
ready developed such things as a
new process for using animal fats
in making plastic, and new meth
ods for making wash-and-wear
clothing from cotton and wool
The government now puts about
S18 million a year into research
on new uses for farm products,
less than one-third of the total rc
seaich budget.
Proposals to scl up a so-called
"cash" program to find new uses
for farm surpluses have won the
support of many members of Con
gress in recent years. A bill pro
posing a $100 million a year utili
zation research program has
twice been passed in the Senate.
Kennedy did not propose any
thing on this scale in his message
last week. But he said the rela
tively small spending on utiliza
tion research in the past has al
ready produced good results. And
he said the proportion of the re
search effort devoted to utilization
studies ought to be increased.
When the President's budget (or
(he 1962 fiscal year reaches Cap
itol Hill, it will also include pro-1
posed increases for aid to soil con
servation districts, for developing
small watersheds, and (or forestry
programs. j
When the detailed drafl of Pres
ident Kennedy's new long-range
(arm program goes to Congress,
it may include an emergency sec-:
tion providing a one-year surplus
reduction program (or wheat.
The wheat section, if it's includ
ed, would deal with the 1962 crop
only. It would call for a certifi-i
calc marketing control plan in I
which farmers would get quotas
