Letter to Editor On Grayback
August 16, 1946

August 16, 1946 Dear Editor:
 just saw your letter dated Aug ust 9th. Would have answered sooner, but just received same. Now in regard to my suggestion that we Grayback Mons meet at Groton. I thought it was a good way to greet the Mons of the Grayiback crew, as we had been corresponding back and forth for over two years. I would hear rumor and would pass 1t along, Some were good and others were bad. At least one of the stories came from Pearl Harbor from a sub man and was true. We'll, get ting on to the subject again, meet ing the Mons. I have received several letters from next of kin and some I had never heard of before. They seem to al1agree that we should come but when think of the transportation facilities, and the shortage of one or two day hotel accommodation I too think it would be good idea to postpone the meeting for year. I think more will attend and right now 1 have my hands full taking care of MT. Gray who took a stroke on January 24th. He broke his arm in two places and was injured in ternally.

Bleak and disappointed faces pressed close against the wire fence of the North Yard as the spectators who had been turned away from the launching tried to catch a glimpse of her journey down the ways. They were the faces of the gay spectators of other launchings who did not want to break their record of witnessing every launching since the new SUB building program had started in 1883. Some drew their coats a little closer as they crowded to the fence in anticipation of the great moment, and though the January wind was sharp, another coldness had penetrated deep within them could this mean war?

 ''Log of the Grayback''
By Ralph R. Shaw

On our first patrol our luck was
 good
 Off Roto and Tinian, And we scored again near the Par
 ry Group,
 Where we sank Jap Sampan- And we lay in wait in Makassar
 Strait
 Combed the Indo-C China Sea, Then dieseled south and got shore
 leave
 Where Perth makes a sheltered
 lee. At Albany next, and Brisbane, too, We stretched leg and found Tat the Jap isles north of the
 Coral Sea
 Were to be our hunting ground. Oh, our fish hit fine off the Rabaul
 shore,
 Southeast from Admiralty Isle, For we blasted three, and topped
 our score With five more, in true "sub
 style" Now the Nips sure swarmed in the waters, there By the beaches near YSabel, So we sank four more by periScope
 sight.
 Boy, we blew those ships to hell! Meanwhile, trips to Base shed a
 welcome light Through the blood stained battle
 foam, As we'd lie submerged to shoot our
 fish
 And watch 'em all strike home.) Came a day when Bills appendix
 burst
 When we lay ten fathoms deep. Our Pharmacists Mate held the
 mercy knife. The cone was held by "The Jeep," As was scalpel, pliers, common
 spoon,
 Doc sWeated - yet stood the
 strain, Dusted in sulfa and sewed the guy
 up. Bill lived! And he's fighting
 again. Once, we slipped along in the dark
 of the moon When even the star seemed dim; While the keeneSt eyes on our sub,
 topside,
 Swept the whole horizon rim And the only sounds were the slap
 of waves, And the throb of the DiesePs
 thrust, As our shark-nosed bow cut that
 tropic sea, And in God we placed full trust. An odd scent of death rode the
 ocean spray. Lord, our nerves were strung
 taut that nightI For a low black hull off the star
 board beam Made us long for our big search
 light Eyes strained in the murkl None
 knew what it meantI The queer sounds waiting in on
 the wind! shapes that loomed
 dead ahead As the Watch reported his find. The Skipper came up. stood tensely
 at gaze.

said in his statement:
my answer is the same as it
was when the same charges were

was a campaign contribution and
was not received until after the fill

therefore was not declared"

Olson admitted that Coffee had
helped Anderson obtain a contract
to build a 81, 1000, 900 hospital at

that the campaign contribution was

Taft told reporters the agree

He said the conference group will
meet at II a. m. (EST) Monday
to look over the Legislative coun-
sells draft of the bill and give
its final approval to the language
Of the measure.
Taft noted that n essential OF
the bill was that the decontroi
board should act speedily with
regard to the major products upon
which ceilings otherwise would be
placed. He said the August 20
date for the return of these con-
trolls, if the board does not act to
stop such a course, was the short
est time the committee believed it
would be possible to get the board
organized and into operation.
Barley said the bill required
that the board hold hearings at
which the affected industries would
be represented.
He and Taft agreed that the price
ceilings to be restored on these
major items, if the board permits
controls to be reinstated, would
be fixed by the OPA.
Some legislators indicated a be-
lief that the decision to return
many controls might cause a sell
ing wave Of products which would
force prices down.

New Flight Rules Seen
After Florence Mishap
CAB Publishes Report OF
Crash Which Took Lives
OF 10 Passengers

WASHINGTON, July 2o.-~-
New civil Air regulations to re-
ouire increased precautions against
fires in commercial aircraft were
in prospect today as a result OF
investigation of a plane crash near
Florence, S. c., last year.
The Civil Aeronautics board pub
lished a report including these con-
illusions regarding the accident, in
which 10 passengers and three
crew members were killed:
1. All Dos passenger equipment
is not provided with adequate ac-
cess to the baggage compartment
from the cabin.
2. Maximum safety in flight re-
uu;res the installation of fire de-
tecting equipment in cargo COM
partments.
The board also declared that
further emphasis should be plac-
ed on use OF non-combustible ma
terials in building planes.
ION the basis of conclusions
reached as a result of investigation
Of this accident, and review OF
available records of aircraft fires,
the board has completed an ex-
haustive study of the problems OF
fire in flight" the report stated,
"and has under consideration ex-
tensive revision Of the civil air
regulations to include requirements
of additional installation of fire
prevention equipment on air car
rier aircraft"
The plane, an Eastern Air Lines
ship, crashed and burned Sept. T.,
1945, while trying to reach the
Florence field for an emergency
landing. En- route from Miami to
New York, it had been re-routed
from a scheduled stop at Raleigh.
N. c.. because of weather, and had
instructions to land at Washington
instead.
The board said investigation in
Dictated that a fire started in the
rear of the plane, probably IN the
baggage compartment or the ad-
joining lavatory and buffet, as the
plane headed for Florence.
1T appears reasonable to as
sumo that, having detected the
fire in flight, the captain chose
to return to Florence for an emer'
gercy landing rather than attempt
to locate a nearer field under ad-
verse weather conditions" the
board said.
