Dramatic Story Told
Of Near Air Tragedy

NEWARK, N. j., Jan. %. UP
The passenger plane from the west

workers on the field of Newark

lights cutting bright squares in her

overhead.
Pilot Lou Gravis, at the controls,
and his co-pilot sat side by side,
their faces cold and grim. The
stabilizer had frozen. Gravis did
not dare point his machine down

DALLAS-PAR|S
HOP PLANNED

DALLAS, Tex, June 90 G.N.S).
An odd-looking plane, especially
designed for high speed, SubStrat-
oSpheric flying, was standing idle
at Love Field here while Pilot
Clyde E. Pangborn and the planes
designer, Monty G. Mason, con-
ferred with Texas Centennial Of
ficials on a proposed Dallas-Paris
flight.
Tentative plans call for Pang-
born to take off from Dallas on
an indefinite date for New York,
then to Paris. A nonstop Paris
Dallas flight is scheduled for the
return hop.
The plane itself, unlike the late
Wiley Posts stratosphere plane
Winnie Mae, is but 80 feet long
and has a Widespread of 551a feet.
1t carries gasoline tanks with a
capacity of 1900 gallons, enough
for an 8,000-mile flight. The planes
maximum speed is 245 miles per

Homecoming Tourists
Guzz|e Their Liquor
To Escape New Tax

NEW YORK, June 20 QN.S).
I'm gonna see lawyer" was the
angry refrain today of many of
the 915 southern cruise passen-
gers who yesterday were obliged,
as a result Of abrogation of the
500 tax-free liquor exemption, to
pay duty on giggle-water or else
lose their purchases.
Previously allowed to bring
500 worth of liquor tax-free,
many of the passengers had
stocked up with the full quota at
Caribbean ports. However, under
the new ruling, announced Satm.
day, they were allowed to bring
in no more than one gallon tax
free, and also we're forced to pay
total duty of $3.50 a gallon on
all over that amount.
Some of the passengers
had virtually exhausted their
funds on the vacation trip. Some
tried to imbibe their entire stock
at one sitting. All offered free
