A,,;-..;-.r e.iItev Is The Ssay

An extensive experiment COM
pleted here yesterday by the Air
Transport Command reveals that
an overwhelming majority of pas
sengers would rather ride backward
than. forward In airplanes.
Since October, an ATC Skymaster
on the tri-weekly Statesman run
to Fairfield, Calf. has been trans
porting passengers In reversed seats.
OF more than 1000 who made the
transcontinental flight, "a per cent
voted for the safety, convenience
and comfort of flying backwards.
This result was obtained, however
in a modern transport on which
the tricycle. landing gear keeps the
plane on a level position on the
ground. Passengers might find
backward facing seats uncomfort-
able in older model planes, in which
cabins slant upward toward the
nose while on the ground.

| Note Is Made Public
Hitting Red Detention
OF American Wives
BY the Associoted Press

The State Department has made
public note sent to Russia six
months ago saying Moscow's con-
tinued refusal to permit the de-
parture from the Soviet Union OF
more than $50 wives of American
citizens was "incomprehensible."
Russia was urged to permit this
group to leave and also persons
claiming American citizenship who
had been "forcibly removed" to the
Soviet Union from various coun-
tries of Eastern Europe.
OF the latter group, whose num-
ber was not estimated, the note,
made public last night, said:
"All efforts of the American
Embassy in Moscow to obtain per-
mission to interview these people
with view to establishing their
American citizenship and arrang-
ing for their return to the United
States have been fruitless."
NOtc SIgneu Dy AcHtSOu.
! The note was sent to the Soviets
last May % and was signed by Dean
Acheson, then Undersecretary OF
State. 1t was published because OF
court action in the New York
Supreme Court by Hamportzoon
Choolokian, seeking custody of three
minor children before emigrating
to the Soviet Union.
It was in reply to Soviet note
which asked that the State Depart
ment give assistance to Armenlans
in the United States who desired to
return to their mother land" by
permitting them to leave, export
their property, and give up their
American citizenship.
The reply said:
American citizens, or alien resi-
dents of the United States except
the German or Japanese nationals
who desireto emigrate to the Soviet
Union are freely permitted to do SO
Can Take Property.
"No exist visas are required, and
such emlgrantS are at nperty 10 take
their personal property with them
American citizens may voluntarily
reInquish their American citizen
ship by making a formal declaration
of allegiance to a foreign country
in accordance with the laws thereof
Contrasting this policy with that
of the Soviet Union, the note said
Russia has refused to permit the
departure of the wives of Americans
and the group claiming United
States citizenship.
Francis B. Stevens, deputy direc-
tor of the departments Division OF
Eastern European Affairs, told re-
porters that in recent months very
little progress" has been made in
the negotiations to obtain exit visas
/ for the wives, but there has been a
small trickle of departures"
