 JETS SPEED
Cross s-Country Air Contest Won by Mdnfz in New
 Record Time
BY JAMES J. STREBIG Az AVIATION REPORTER

CLEVELAND, Aug. 31.-Streaking .cross-country at a scorching speed averaging 1856 miles an hour, Paul MantZ, Burbank, Calf, flier who virtually grew up with aviation, to- day held the winners share of the Bendix Trophy Race prize-with an assist from movie stunting" that showed him way out of a jam
 The 43-year-old pilots speed was more than 150 miles an hour faster than the former record for the 2 2045-mile dash from Van Nuys, Calf, to the National Air Races.
 DooLITTLE FIRST WINNER
 The previous record was set by Frank Fuller in 1889 when he aver aged 282 miles an hour. Jimmy Dcolittle, who lived to bedevil the Axis with bombers, won the first Bendix in 1881 with an average speed of 223 miles an hour.
 Mantz, flying North American P-51 Mustang salvaged from mili- tary surpluses, fell just short Of doubling Doolittle's speed, and his four hours, 42 minutes and ten sec onds elapsed time from Van Nuys, Calf, was only B minutes behind and Army Air Force jet-propelled plane which flew the same course at 1885 miles an hour
 JETS RACE NEXT YEAR
 Race pilots already were talking about flying jets next year, al- though they recognized the diff culty in getting engines which even now are scarce for the military ser vices.
 Jacqueline Cochran, war time leader of the WASP and the 1888 Bendix winner-only woman ever to take the $l0000 first prize finished in second place with an average of 420.8 miles an hour.
 Miss Cochran wife of financier Floyd Odlum, said she had watch ed anxiopsly for most of the flight a dent in the left wing flap caused by dropping one of her auxiliary fuel tanks.
 T guess I'm going to quit rac- ing" she laughingly told friends after climbing out of her green P- 51 with a Lig number l3 on foth sides.

GEN. BRADLEY ATTENTIVE TO
 LOCAL VIEWS
Veterans Administrator Puts More Questions
 than Answers

1 Juneau's four-star visitor, Gen. Omar Bradley, at a press confer ence here yesterday afternoon, said he likes to fish, whether he catch es anything or not" And, on his trief vacation here he did catch : fish
 Combined with this areas scenic wonders, that made his trip here enjoyable. The fishing, he indi- cated, was hoped for but incidental. His schedule was planned to bring him officially into Juneau on Fri day, with two days allowed for bad weather. When good weather caus- ed no travel delays, his party went under cover and out for fishing. The Veterans Administrator ex- pressed realization of difficulties posed by high living costs to carrying the veterans program through in Alaska. But as for ans wers, he asked questions designed to bring out any solutions Alaska residents may have.
 First question the General put was. How fast are veterans who saw service in Alaska coming back to live in the Territory? Concern ing housing, he questioned shipping costs on fabricated homes.
 Also sitting in on the press ses- sion was Alaska's Governor, who outlined the Territorial veterans program. Seventy three leans, ag- gregating about $8o0,OoO have so far been made, he cited. in addition ] to bonuses.
 Questioned regarding the ceiling of $175 placed on "on the job train ins," it's deterring effect in Alaska and if it might be possible to amend the law to provide a 25 percent Alaska differential similar to that for Federal salaries, Gen. Bradley replied it seems worth looking into. The ceiling, he said, had been brought about by abuses" He cited that of corporation president drawing $700 per month who ap- piled for allowance for training to succeed his father as president of the firm. Any attempt to set a general standard to prevail through out the country inevitably is not satisfactory everywhere, he point ed out. Where the ceiling set is generous in many southern states, it falls short in Alaska.
 Questioned whether any appoint ment is immediately forthcoming of permanent Alaska VA Manager to succeed A. E. Karnes, Gen. Brad ley referred the query to North west Deputy Administrator Donald M. Shute, who answered: No per- manent appointment will be an- nounced for the time being. MT. Lincoln (E. E. Lincoln) will con- tinue as Acting Manager.
