Wild Flyer Dive Bombs Fairbanks

A 30-minute 'joyride' in "borroWed'' airplane, during which he gave scores of gasping Fairbanksans his version of dive bombing tactics, may tailspin Al Ian B. Hunt into a Swear over haul in the Federal penitentiary.
 Jailed when he finally swoop,d to earth with a fear-crazed pas senger, Ken FraWley, shortly be fore-9 o'clock April 20, the young refrigeration expert who aspired to higher activities faces felony charge of Wanton injury to per sonal property, and possible cita- tionS on at least nine Civil Aero nautics Administration air traffic regulations.
 Second "Escapade'
 Last nights escapade in which spellbound spectators on the ground saw the tiny ship power dive, stall, sid2slip, and skid as close as 20 feet and scarcely ever higher than a few hundred feet off the ground, was the second such experience for Hunt. H. served 50 days in the Fairbanks jail last summer after pleadig guilty to Alaska's "joyride stat ute"-operating a motor vehicle without the owners consent and without intention to stsal
 The airplane taken by Allen Hunt was parked at the Arctic Wings Flying Service reserva- tion. Owner of the ship, a Pipe~ Coupe flown to Fairbanks from Juneau by two girls from Lock Haven, Pennsylvania, last sum- msr, is Arthur H. Purdy of Chicken. Purdy signed the com plaint against Hunt.
 Frawley, who stated he ven: up with Hunt on the latter'S word that he was competent and authorized to fly, said when he reached the ground, totally un- n2rVed by the narrowing ride, that his companion seemed all right until he got in the air. Then he went off his head, and began laughing and taking drinks from bottle he had with him.
 Narrowing Ride
 The passenger said he pleaded with the other man to bring the plane back to earth. Hunts reply was a series of dives a. he tower of the United States Signal Corps transmitting station on the banks of the Cinema southeast of Fair banks. In one of these maneuv- CTS the propellor clipped cable stretched from the top of the l80- foot tower to a 75-foot support on the opposite river bank.
 Inspection of the plane indicat- ed the cable had switched around many revolutions with the pro- pellor, ripping gashes in the wing fabric and punching holes in the cowling. The landing gear was also slightly damaged.

Stambaugh declared:
"Under existing agreements and

and every other nation where there is
hope for the rights of free men and
the will to fight for the overthrow
and destruction of Hitler, there no

"Any remaining vestige of even a

Confidence Is Factor
"The American Federation of Labor
appreciates the necessity for national
and international unions and their af-

elimination of the racketeer and the
criminal from it's ranks"
The resolution was introduced by
the resolutions committee, headed by
Matthew Woll, vice president of the
A. F. of L., and was based on recon!
mendations made the first day of the
convention by the Executive Council.
In another resolution adopted the
convention recommended greater labor
representation on all national defense
boards and agencies. The resolution
cited England as an example of maxi
mum results of the "home front" be-
cause of trade union participation in
all phases of the national struggle.

"But with regard to the larger
question of labor peace, the obvious
fact is that it takes two sides to make
peace. The President himself declared
at press conference in Washington,
D. c., more than year ago that the
American Federation of Labor had
responded willingly and favorably to
each appeal for both sides to sit down
together and work out a settlement
of differences around the conference
table. At the same time the Presi-
dent acknowledged that he had not
received a favorable response from
the dual labor organization.
"The same situation has obtained
ever since. We of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor have made repeated
overtures for resumption of peace
negotiations with the CIO. Our pleas
have been rejected or ignored each
time. In my Labor Day address a
month ago declared that the restor-
alton of labor unity would be a Vita
factor in making the national defense
effort more effective. Only two days

not heard a word or a whisper from

execution of the respected labor lead
ers of Norway, following on the heels
of the abolition of real unions in the
most Of the rest of Europe" he said,
"darkly underlines the crucial impor
tance of the success of our policy"
'It is also important" the Cover
nor said, "to safeguard the preser-
vation of the rights of the free work
man and of private enterprise and the
sovereignty of the individual citizen
under democracy when this crisis
has passed. This requires the full
influence of labor to keep the unusual
powers which the national govern
ment needs now on temporary basis,
as it will otherwise be difficult to take
them away again in future years"
Turning to the tremendous prob
lens of readjustment "when the
emergency has passed and the de-
fense program ends," Gov. Stassen
said it was the function of labor to
prepare a program commensurate
with these problems and to develop
public support for it. In this field he
suggested "an extensive public works
program, not Of the WPA type, but
rather a contractual construction OF
undertakings of permanent national
value such as super-highways, an ad-
vanced network of airdromes and the
harnessing of water power, with pro-
vision for revenue use Of the results
in manner similar to the Pittsburgh
toll highway, and the Inauguration OF
extensive low-cost housing construc
ton founded on private capital ant
individual ownership with a direct
government subsidy but of the mini
mum necessary amount"
"The fifth great future issue befor'
