EXCELSIOR:
altitude 1000

President Truman's recently ap-
pointed air safety board has come
UP with two specific recommends
tions directed at reducing the num-
Der of aircraft accident fatalities In
the United States.
The board, established in June
after series Of crashes had taken
146 lives, proposed that:
1. All aircraft operating at
night under instrument condi-
tions be required to fly at least
1900 feet above mountainous
terrain and 1000 feet above
Enthusiastically level terri
tory.
2. ALI scheduled air transports
be required to install electronic
terrain proximity indicators, op-
Grating on the radar principle,
in addition to the aneroid alti-
meters now required in all
planes.
The proximity indicators recon-
mended by the board are basically
similar to the detection equipment
which Howard Hughes, millionaire
plane builder, had proposed be in
stalled as standard equipment in
commercial planes. The radar de-
tectors, announced by Hughes three
months ago, were tested in Wash
ington 10 days before the air safety
board incorporated them in its re-
port to the President.
Further impetus was given the air
safety campaign when Norman Nc
Coy of Blue Mound, ILL.,, president Of
the Flying Farmers of Illinois, In
diana, Michigan and Wisconsin, add
ed his organization endorsement
to the nationwide movement. The
four-state organization has q men,
bership Of more than 1900.

u. S. TANKS:
Not Scrdpped

Writing from London, Frederick
Kuh, Chicago Sun correspondent,
charged in story that European
munitions merchants are feathering
their nests with dealings in United
States surplus military supplies"
He reported a transaction in
which the U. S. army purportedly
sold 1000 tanks to Belgian financier
Frederic Bracht, a resident Of Ar
gentina, with the understanding
that they were to be scrapped.
Bracht, instead, is said to have sold
the tanks to Argentina for re-equip-
ment of Argentine armored units,
reaping great profit from the re-
sale.
Although some Of the tanks are in
worn condition, intentions Of Juan
Peron's Argentine government is
reported to be to disassemble two
or three tanks to reconstruct one
new one. In that way, Argentina
would acquire about 700 U. S. tanks
more than the nations entire
army had during the war.

OIL EXPORTS:
Supply Russia

A special export license for the
shipment of petroleum products to
Russia was granted by the depart
ment of commerce hours after Rep
resentative Weichel (Rep., o.,
chairman of the house merchant
marine committee, demanded the
license be refused.
Weichel previously had tele-
phoned William G. Foster, under
secretary of commerce, urging him
to halt the movement of 248,000 bar
rels of petroleum being loaded
aboard three tankers on the West
coast.
Explaining his action to the angry
Weichel, Foster said that the de-
partment did not believe that ex-
ports Of petroleum and petroleum
products should be prohibited. or
drastically curtailed. To do so
would upset the world system Of
distribution and make petroleum a
source Of International friction"
He implied that the exporting of
oil has little or no effect on this ma
tons domestic supply because, un-
der any circumstances, the U. S.
must import oil to supplement its
domestic production.
