GLIDER CONTEST IN SWISS HIGH ALPS
(NeW York TimeS)


 Rules and regulations for an international alpine glider competition open to pilots of all lands being worked out by the Swiss Aero Club The club held it's first championship meet in 1943 the flying field Samaden-St. Moritz in the Upper Engadne, when II experts competed.
 In recent years, according to the Swiss Information Bureau it has been discovered that the Alps with their mighty buwarks of rocks their valleys and gorges and their glaciers are, from typographical and meteoro- logical standpoint, sometimes desirable for gliding than the lowland regions
 The sport in the high Alps naturally is danger ous. Landing opportunities are extremely limited and flying through clouds is possible only within fair dis tance at the side at sufficient altitude above the mountains.
 Strong upward winds which carry pilot skyward thousands of feet in few minutes, change in flash into downward winds which force him down into valley. Here the skill of the pilot receives it's most severe test.
 But the reward is rich The pilot floats through sum- lit spheres above realm where dazzling glaciers regal peaks sparkling lakes dark forests and verdant pas lures form grandiose panorama.

 Another Betty who got first class passage to stardom on the wings of a song and the support of a name band is curvesome Betty Grable-she was originally spotted by a talent scout when canarying with Ted Flo Rito's and Jay Whidden's organizations.

THE PRESIDENT IS RIGHT

When President Truman warned the ldDOl ment conference that industrial strife in the United States must end because the American people do no like it, he was right.
 The President was even right when he said that if the representatives of labor and management are un able or unwilling employ the processes of collective bargaining to establish and preserve industrial peace M the country:
 Then there must be a willingness to some impar tal machinery for reaching decisions the basis O proven facts and realities instead Of rumor or prOpa ganda partisan statement
 There is of course only way to provide impartial machinery for that essential purposeand that way through the honest and adequate and competent agen cies of sensible and trustworthy and patriotic system of compulsory arbitration.
 While President Truman refrained from indorSing and proposing American system of compulsory arbl- traon by name he clearly and unequivocay did so ln principle
 glad to find the the problems of industrial peace in such device of collective bargaining and such a gathering as the labor-management conference
 But he also said with grim assurance:
 f the people do not find the here, they will find them some place else.
 For these answers must and will be found.
 "The whole system of private enterprise and ndvid ual opportunity depends upon finding them.'
 The representatives of labor and management have nothing fear and everything to profit by and benefit from in system of impartial adjudication of indus trial disputes.
 As the President so we'll said:
 That IS the way to eliminate unnecessary fr1ctOn.
 'That is the way to prevent lOckouts and strikes.
 ''That is the way to keep production going" Compulsory arbitration would not be instrument serving the interests advantage of either labor management.
 It would be instrument for searching out and up- holding the truth.
 It would keep the productive enterprises of the try operating without interruption in spite of any troversy.
 It would prevent idleness and the cessation of during the course of any controversy.
 It would the whole country and all its people of the vital goods and services of productive industry pending adjudication of differences.
 In short it would serve the best interests of the American people, determine the justice of any claims issues raised by the American people, and in the time keep the peace among the American people
 The processes of collective bargaining the Presi- dent said have been undertaken with hopeful expeca ton in some quarters that they would give the country the industrial peace it desires.
 But they have repeatedly and consistently failed to do so
 In spite of the disastrous strikes have occurred and occurring and the American people not only do not like them but will not much longer endure them-espe cally when the impartial machinery of compulsory btration would prevent tcem
