CAT and C-54 can also deliver fuel
in drums, the C-109 has by far the
greatest carrying capacity with its
specially designed fuel tanks in the
nose, wings. bomb-bay and fuselage.
The modification Of the B-24 into
an aerial fuel tanker grew out of
necessity Of supplying our airbases
in China with aviation fuel after the
use Of the Burma road was Interrupt
ted by enemy action.
Foreseeing the eventual need of
greater amounts of gasoline, when
the B-29 would go into operation
the AAF started to prepare for the
future. On September 8, 1913, ten
months before the first B-29 raid
on Japan. the Tank Development
Unit Of the Power Plant Laboratory
at Wright Field received instructions
to explore the possibility of con-
verting one Of our largest planes
into an aerial fuel tanker.
The B-24 was selected then be-
cause the only other four engined
cargo ship, the C-54, was not being
manufactured in sufficient quanti-
ties, while the B-24s were well on
the road to mass production. The
fact the B-24, with its supercharger
could fly over the hump" made it
all the more desirable for conversion
into an aerial fuel tanker.
While no major structural changes
had to be made in the airplane, the
question Of weight balance and dis
tribution was Of paramount impor-
lance. The fuel tanks were placed
In the plane so as not to destroy
the balance. A series of tests con-
Quoted at Wright Field proved the
modified plane satisfactory and cap
able Of performing what it was in
tended to do.
1t had flown 1875 hours, hauling
gasoline into China bases for fighter
and bomber use when it was lost
in operation. But its work was done
and upon the performance of the
XC-109, the AAF ordered the mod
ification Of more planes into aerial
fuel tankers, July, 1874, when the
need of gasoline for the successful
operation Of the B-29s was multi
piled many hundreds of times.
without a sufficient supply of gas
oline, the Superfortresses had to
haul their own supply over the
hump" building up a reserve for
each raid. After the raid, the sup
ply had to be replenished with the
B-29s taking time out to do the
hauling. This explains the interval
of more than weeks between raids
when the B-29s first went into oper-
atoms.

Coast Guard
Reopens Training
Program,

Seventeen-year-old youths enlist
ing under the Coast Guards newly
reopened training program at Man.
haitian Beach Station, Brooklyn,
New York, may be assigned to duty
in one Of the below-named classifi-
cations, the Detroit Recruiting Of
flee has announced:
Coast Guardsmen at Guadalcanal,
Salerno, Saipan, Tarawa, Normandy,
and in every invasion since the wars
beginning have been entrusted with
the special task Of transporting
troops safely from ship to enemy
shore. They have manned the great
armada Of the beachheads - the
LISTS, LOIS and Lots, maneuver-
Ing nsen, tanks, and supplies ashore
with minimum loss under constant
enemy fire.
For this phenomenal success in
recent operations at Wadke and
Biak Islands in the Philippines,
General Douglas Macarthur paid
particular tribute to Coast Guards
men who manned landing craft.
Special commentator from the
commander of the American forces
was inserted in each mans service
record.
Coast Guard cutters, DE'S and
frigates are playing a leading role
in breaking the U-Boat menace in
enemy infested waters. One Coast
Guard captain has achieved an all
time record by guiding Is conveys
through the North Atlantic in the
course of two years without losing
a single ship.
Air-Sea Rescue
The Coast Guard operates the
new Air-Sea Rescue Agency now
functioning on all sea frontiers.
This is the aviation era's counter
part of rescue service formerly rend-
cred surface vessels. 1t is only mat
ter of minutes after a crash at sea
until Coast Guard planes and sur
face craft have effected rescue of
the victims. AS part Of the air-sea
rescue program are Coast Guard
pilots flying anti-submarine and
convoy patrol and utilizing sea-
planes, helicopters and the Coast
Guards streamlined communica-
lions system.
Youths, who have completed at
least one year of high school, may

State OCD Ceared
to Needs of War

LANSING - The Michigan Office
Of Civilian Defense begins the year
1915 streamlined to the basic essen
tials Of war time home front activi-
ties.
The State OCD Victory Garden
program reached a new high in 1914,
with an estimated 100000 gardens
as compared to 10000 in 1913. Ad-
verse weather, however, reduced the
garden crops from 100000 bushels
in 1913 to between 100000 and
100000 bushels in 1914. Because
Of the food situation, a goal of
792, 900 gardens has been set for 1915.
With the salvage program con-
sidered q must" until at least the
end Of the war, figures recently COM
piled by the War Production Board
show that since Pearl Harbor, Mich
igan Civilian Defense volunteers
have gathered 1,1S5,97O tons Of SAL
wage items Of various kinds valued
at more than $2o.o00,O00.
Among other activities in which
OCD was busy during 1914 were coal
distribution and conservation, WAC
recruiting and pre-induction meet
ings for men entering the service
undertaken at request of the. Army
recruitment of Forest Fire Fighters
war bond sales, organization of a
women's corps to drive Army trucks
from the manufacturing plant to
collection depots, recruitment of
male volunteers for hospital work,
food preservation through canning
and storage Of Victory Garden prod
ucts, establishment of food banks
for garden surpluses, recruitment of
farm laborers, cooperation in the
blood plasma program, surveys for
the War Manpower Commission and
other agencies, compilation of mill
tary records Of men and women in
the service and supplying volunteer
workers for OPA price checkups,
rationing boards and various agen-
cies.
I'VE begin 1915 with our organiza-
ton trimmed to the essentials and
geared to the needs Of the war;"
Capt. Leonard stated. TOO much
cannot be said in appreciation of
the work already done by oCD VOL
mteers and too much encourage
ment cannot be given them to con-
tinue. They deserve it. AS for the
organization as a whole, we are
carrying on with the idea that the
job on the home front will not be
done until the wars overseas are
finally Won"

FOR MISUNDERSTANDING

THE WASTE PAPER SITUATION

We have passed the halfway point on our road to COM
plete victory. We have forced unconditional surrender on the
Nazis. But we still have a long hard way to go before we
reach Tokyo. We can't let down for one single minute on the
fighting front nor on the home front until the Japs too have
signed the terms of unconditional surrender. One of the best
ways we on the home front can help to speed that day IS by
saving every scrap of waste paper. Paper products, made from
waste paper, help to supply or package just about everything
that goes to our fighting men, And more paper is needed for
essential civilian requirements. Each man in the Pacific re-
ouires eight tons of supplies-everything from ammunition to
underwear-every month. Each one of the millions of sep
arate essential items is made, wrapped, or at least tagged with
paper. Double and triple waterproof packagIng is often neces-
sary to help supplies withstand transportation over great dis
tances and heat, cold, contamination, and storage hazards.
Waste paper is vital raw material needed to supply our fight
ing front and our home front. Paper goes to war. And paper
helps to bring most of the essentials of life into our homes.
Waste paper isn't waste paper unless we waste it. When
we save it and turn it in, waste paper helps to supply one of
the most critical shortages facing our country.

YOU CAN HELP NOW

If you find it difficult to get on a train, remember that the
railroads and the Pullman company, by order of the office OF
defense transportation, have withdrawn from service all sleep
ing cars operating between points $50 miles or less apart. The
action was made necessary by Unexpectedly heavy arrivals OF
troops from Europe.
This action makes available an additional S95 Pullman cars
and gives the military the exclusive use of about half the sleep
ing cars operating in the United States. These cars afford a
greater measure of comfort to our troops moving to the west
coast prior to embarkation to the Pacific theater.
1t is interesting to note that in 1918, with a/total of ap-
proximately A., ZOO coaches and sleeping cars, the railroads per-
formed 1885, 00,0 900 passenger-mies of service.
In 1914, with approximately 27,7O0 passengercarrying
cars the railroads performed 95,575, 100000 passengermiles
and the 1915 passenger load is expected to mount 10 per cent,
to more than 1000 1000 passenger-miles, or nearly two
and onehalf times the 1918 passenger load-to be moved in
80 per cent less passenger carrying equipment.
On account of wartime restrictions, the railroads have been
unable to buy passenger carrying cars. The hauling job and
the maintenance job they have done with the equipment at
hand is almost beyond belief. They have rendered service more
expeditiously, more courteousy and with less waste than in
1918 when there was vastly more equipment, more engines and
much more manpOwer.
You can do your part to help out in the greatest transpor-
tation job in history by travelling only when necessary for pur-
poses other than pleasure.

Captain Lamb Here
Visiting Relatives

Captain Robert E. Lamb, his wife
and year-old son, Skippy, arrived
last week from New York City and
are spending a part of his furlough
with Mrs. Lambs brother-in-law
and sister, Mr.. and Mrs. Steve
Romeo.
Captain Lamb recently arrived in
New York after being liberated
from a German prison camp at
Moosburg, April %. He was blown
out of his plane while over Ger
many July 8, 1914, and sustained
burns on his face. While he was
in camp his nephew, Corporal Larry
E. Romeo managed to locate him
and gave him the first news he
had had from home since he was
~incarcerated.
Captain Lamb is a pre-Pearl Har-
Dor veteran, having enlisted in June,
1871. He has received the dis
tinguished flying cross, the air med
al with three oak-leaf clusters, the
purple heart, the European theater
ribbon with three battle stars and
the American defense ribbon.
He vas instructor at the Wend-
over Field, Utah, and at Smyrna,
Tenn, Albany, Ga, and Blytheville,
Ark.
At the end of his furlough he will
report for duty at Atlantic City,

juicy buffalo and elk steaks they
had enjoyed on the Missouri.
Clark had the good fortune to
come upon a stray Indian pony, on
which they dined, leaving the larger
portion for Lewis and his party.
Clark continued on, crossing Eldora-
do and Lolo creek and, on Septem-
Der 20, came out on Weippe prairie,
where he found a Chopunnish (Nez
Perce) camp. This was near the
present Weippe, Idaho. Two of the
head chiefs being away with a war
party, the explorers were received
by Chief Twisted Hair.
Lewis and Clark sat in council
with the Indians on September %,
distributed presents and medals and
explained the purpose of the expedi-
ton. The men entertained with
music on the fiddle and with dane
a form of entertainment new
to the Indians. They (the Nez
Perez promised to always live in
peace with the white men, a prom
Use which they faithfully kept until

Meadows and Pack creek, which
Lewis and Clark called Glade creek.
Their Shoshone Indian guide led
them down to the K~ooskooskie
Gochsa) river, a mistake which
thew avoided on the return trip.
They camped at the mouth of White
Sand creek, which they called Colt
Killed creek, because they were
forced to kill a colt to satisfy their
hunger. Powell Ranger station is
now located on this spot.
The climb out of the river canyon
was a hard, dangerous one. One
of the pack-horses slipped and roll
ed down a steep declivity. Forage
was poor and the animals we're so
thin and weak that two of them had
to be abandoned. On September 16
they made a cherries camp and
another colt for food. Snow
was falling, their moccasins were
worn thin and they were cold and
miserable. The following day, the
third and last colt was killed and
Captain Clark with six men, went
ahead in search of game. From a
high point, probably Sherman peak,
they sighted an open, grassy coun-
try in the distance.
Hurrying on, they came to a
formed by the present Obia
and Fish creeks, where they camp
ed. Having nothing to eat, they
tightened their belts and called the
stream Hungry creek. Lewis and
the main party trailed along, hun
gry, cold and dispirited. No doubt
thew all dreamed of the nice, fat,
