Albuquerque, June 27.-Forest Off
GERS here have announced the pur-
chase of several new specially con-
sIructed motorcycle vans for use in
rushing tools and food supplies to fire
fighting crews. The new vehicles are
in the nature of an experiment. 1t is
said that experience has repeatedly
demonstrated that the effectiveness of
6 crew of fire-ighters often depends
largely on the possibility of supplying
them with special equipment or extra
provisions at the strategic moment.
Where the base of supplies far from
the Ger of the fire, wagon transpor.
tation is often too slow and automo-
biles unduly expensive.
The new motorcycle vans are ex-
pected to fill this need. They consist
of a one-wheel side-car, %attachable to
any motorcycle, and have a capacity
Of 500 pounds of freight. They will
make 10 to Is miles per hour, loaded,
on mountain roads, which Is more than
twice the speed of a wagon. At the
same time the cost is much less than
for automobiles.
H the present conditions continue.
forest officials, say, there will be plen-
ty of chances to try out the new vans.

place Of the conferees if the meeting

heat of FL Paso led DR.. Jordan to look
around for a cooler spot for the con-
ference. Some one told him Albu-
