Add $500 Tank
Cars on Coast
Gasoline Haul

A total of 8,4OO tank cars have been
released for the transportation of
petroleum into the Eastern Seaboard
district as the result of an Office of
Defense Transportation order recently
restricting use of the cars in short
haulS.
The Office announced that during
August there was reduction of 2,426
in the number of tank cars engaged in
short hauls, a decrease resulting gen.
orally from the diversion Of short haul
traffic to tank trucks.
At an average of two trips month,
the total of 8,4OO tank cars released by
September l would move 117600 bar
rels of oil day from the producing
fields of the Middle West to the East
ern district.
The order effecting this diversion
General Order ODT No. y requires
that no railroad accept for transport
any loaded tank car without special or
general permission from the ODT, ex-
cept cars specifically exempted. An
exception order-since revised-ex-
empted cars used in hauling any COM
modify for a distance of more than
100 miles over the shortest available
published rail tariff route.
Effective October 10, the permit
system restricting use of tank cars
will cover all movements of 200 miles
or less.

FORMER MONTANA
REPORTER FOUND
AT PORT MORESBY. STATES
HIGH COMMAND

Vern Haugland, Associated Press
war correspondent and former Mon
tana newspaper man, missing since he
parachuted into the wild New Guinea
jungles nearly seven weeks ago, now
has reached the Allied base of Por,
Moresby, the high command recently
announced.
The correspondent was brought into
an Australian Army outpost in New
Guinea Sept. 81, emaciated and de-
lirious. and authorities began i'm
mediately to arrange for his hospital
ization.
The United Press quoted spokes-
man at Gen. MacArthurs headquar-
tiers as saying that Haugland was
very sick but will recover" First
word of his whereabouts was received
at headquarters Sept. 10. when it was
reported that he was at an inland
mission, the United Press said, and he
was taken from there to the outpost,
where he received treatment, and was
later taken by plane to Port Moresby.
CHaugland was said to be suffering
from malaria, hunger and exhaustionD
Haugland has described Allied raids
on Japanese bases the training Of
troops and the reactions of the Amer
leans to Australians and vice versa.
before he got a chance to go to the
New Guinea front
He left Townsville, Australia, Aug. 7,
winning a seat in the Inflated leading
plane by the toss of a coin.
The squad ran into storms. When
they were over the leading plane and
another were missing. The second
plane eventually landed safely but it
was days before anyone heard the fate
of the leader The men on the plane
struggled in until only Haugland and
the navigator were missing. Thus far
there has been no word Of the navi-
gator
The plane, it was learned, ran out
of fuel in the storm and the men had
to bail out in the New Guinea jungle.
Haugland was born May 81. 1908 in
Litchfield, Mimi, the eighth of II
children of Claus and Hanna Haug-
land. He was graduated from Mon
tana State university in 1881 and
worked on the Missoula Sentinel and
Daily Muscular. Next he worked
for the Montana Standard Butte, be-
for joining the Associated Press bureau
in Salt Lake City, Utah, in 1896. He
was transferred to Los Angeles in
1889

Sugar Goal Is Put
At 2.IOO.OOO Tons

The foods requirements committee
has announced its goal of sugar in
ventories in the continental United
States at the end of this year as
100000 short tons, raw value, or be-
tween three and four months supply.
Commute Chairman Claude R
Wickard, secretary of agriculture, said
that the inventories would be carried
in equitable proportions by the var
ious branches of the sugar industry"
The foods requirements committee
Wickard said, does not feel that re-
duction in the basic sugar ration,
which is now one-half pound a per-
son a week, should be made solely to
accumulate the stockpile during the
present year. The year-end inven-
tories will appoach the goal if sup
plies become available in excess of
those necessary to meet present re-
quirements of civilians, the armed
services and lend-leasc exports, he
said.
Wickard indicated that the time and
manner of accommodating the govern
ment stockpile would be reconsidered
before the end of the year if it ap-
pears that the inventories will fall far
short of the goal

Yellowstone Geyser

Candy-hungry bears have squatted in
the center of many Yellowstone park
highway to block traffic, but for the
first time a geyser has taken over to
halt motorists.
Bursting through hardsurfaced pave
ment between Norris and Madison

GUS eruption, the geyser pours forth a
tremendous volume of gas and steam.

Park officials have ordered a detour

strains of fast flying in high attitudes.
To cope with these hazards, all
Flyers must be properly nourished If,
Tor example, they want perfect vision
Tor night flying, they must get plenty
OF vitamin A in their daily diets. II
they wish to avoid indigestion, which
often occurs at high attitudes, they
must avoid gas-forming foods.
At height of 10000 feet, air sup
plies only about two-thirds as much
oxygen as at sea level while at $4,000
feet it furnishes only half as much.
In this lowered atmospheric pressure,
gases of the stomach expand and may
cause great discomfort, including
cramps. Reduction of oxygen also re-
suits in slower digestion.
When ready to fly an aviator must
therefore, avoid bulky, rough foods,
such woody green vegetables, raw
fruits, tough stringy meats, whole
grain cereals and gassy beverages.
Then the flyer requires a bland,
smooth diet, high in food-energy units,
and comprised mainly of easily d.
gestible carbohydrate foods. The best
fare for the purpose includes buttered
toast enriched white bread, eggs,
cooked cereals or rice, pasteurized milk,
baked potato, tender meats, cooked
fruits and fruit juices, custard, plain
cake, salt, and little sugar like dex-
trose, honey or molasses. Coffee Is
all right. tea is less desirable, and al
cohol is absolutely out.
The atrman must, of course, avoid
foods that disagree with him because
Of an allergy or special sensitivity. He
should also shun greasy, highly sea-
soned foods, and should generally pass
up such gassy items as onions, cab
bage, beans, cucumbers, radishes, eau
liflower, cantaloupe, fried foods and
all unripe raw fruits.
For vitamin A and keen vision he
needs chiefly carrots, butter, cream,
whole milk, liver, and yellow vegeta-
bles. In an emergency the best-fed
flyer has the best chances of coming
down safely.
