Driven by storm from a height of
5000 feet into the Everglades of Flor
ida, Lieutenant Smith, an aviator sta
toned at Carlstrom field, Miami, was
forced to- add to his startling expert
ences the prospect of starvation in q
trackless swamp, infested with snakes
and alligators. He and his passenger,
Sergeant O'Connor. were rescued by
Seminole Indians. after having wan
dered through the Everglades for two
days without food or water.
The airplane in which Lieutenant
Smith and Sergeant O'Connor were at
tempting to fly over the Everglades
was submerged in the mud and water
and somewhat damaged, but later was
put In order and sailed forth once
more, to the great wonder Of the Semi
nOles.
Lieutenant Smith had undertaken
the work of photographing a shorter
line of flight over the Everglades to
Fort Meyers, and was on his mission
at the time Of his adventure. He had
reached an altitude of 1000 feet above
the great swamp when he observed a
storm approaching from the south and
changed his course to the southwest in
an effort to avoid it. Finding this i'm
possible, he veered to the west and at
tempted to climb above it. At 5000
feet, however, he encountered terrific
wind from the north which tossed the
plane and twice turned it almost COM
pletely on it's back.
The motor cut out twice and Lieu
tenant Smith had to put the plane in
q nose dive to clear itself. Suddenly
the machine broke through the clouds
and the swamps appeared just below.
The motor was still giving trouble and
the pilot was compelled to land. He
continued his flight along the shallow
and open places fringing the swamp,
but the gas gave out and he came down
4S miles west of Miami. In the land
ing Sergeant O'Connor's lips were cut
and he was bruised about the body and
legs. Lieutenant Smith was only
slightly bruised.

Swift & Company

Swift & Company, in fifty years of well
ordered growth, has become one of the
great national services because it has
learned to do something for the American
people which they needed to have done
for them, in the way in which they
preferred to have it done.
1t has met each successive demand, in
the changing conditions of national life,
by getting good meat to increasing mill
lions effectively, efficiently, economically,
and expeditiousy.
The Swift & Company packing plants,
refrigerator cars, car routes, branch
E houses organization, and personnel Of
today are the practical solutions, born of
practical experience. to the food problems
of half century.
Because of all these elements working in
correlation and unison, Swift & Company
is able to supply more and better meat to
more people than would have been pos
sible otherwise, at a net profit per pound of
meatso low "a fraction of a cent? that the
consumer price is practically unaffected.
Strip away any portion of this vast,
snooth-running human machine, and you
make large part of the meat supply
uncertain, lose the benefit ofhalf a century
of fruitful experience, and scatter the
intelligent energies of men who have
devoted a life work toward meeting the
needs OF nation in one vital field.
