Transmission Vital
At such times, Randy and Ed say
adequate transmission is vital both
for flying the ranges or obtaining
permission to climb above or below
the icing layer under instrument
conditions. There is also q crucial
time, only learned by experience,
when the icing boots must be turned
on or they will merely break the
crust which often slides farther
oack on the wing to spoil the lift

This de-icing equipment is being

Most significant Of the projects
emerging from the conference were
listed by the librarian as follows:
/. Reconstruction of educational
systems, libraries, laboratories and
museums in IL war-devastated coun-

1913. Voluntary aid again will be
asked from the United States to
supplement UNESCO funds.
A program to raise educational
standards in backward countries will
be enlarged. What was termed a
pilot experiment in fundamental
education similar to one already
established in Marking, China, will
be set up, probably in Haiti. This
will be the nucleus of public school

as a model for backward countries.

New Boss for the Marines
By Rowland Evons, Jr.

Clifton B. Gates had never heard
of the United States Marines when
he joined up. But he's doing ok
on New Year Day he will be sworn
in as commandant.
Back in 1917, on the campus of
the University of Tennessee, a friend
suggested to Gates that they enlist
in the Marines as a quick way to
get into World War I. Game for
anything, Gates said let's go.
He got hit in that war seven
times-once by a near-miss shell
burst that left him standing nude
as a plucked chicken-but he came
out on his feet.
| Today Maj. Gen. Gates says that
if there is another war both sides
will lose-there will be no winner" i"
but feels nevertheless that it's his
duty to do his part in keeping the
United States military establish
ment highly organized and ready
for any emergency. He believes
that atomic and other destructive
weapons could easily destroy the
economic power of all who take
part in another war.
Holds Many Decorations
Gen. Gates, 81, will be sworn in as
the 18th Marine Corps commandant
with the rank of general. Gen.
Alexander A. Vandegrift, present
commandant, will retire to the in
active list and move to his farm
near Lynchburg, Va.
The wounds Gen. Gates suffered
as a second lieutenant, and other
fortunes of war, won him two Pur-
pie Hearts, Navy Cross and a Dis
tinguished Service Cross with Oak
Leaf Cluster in World War I.
HE earned his way from a pla-
toon commander through the COM
pany and field grades Gen. Vande-
grift says of his successor in brief
review of Gates 80 years as a
Leatherneck.

of his personality that were sue

George" at the controls. Randy
and Ed were sitting back in their
pilots seats with their arms folded
Randy was smoking a cigar and Ed
was waiting to get word to lend
George" a hand with the flaps and
landing gear.
The automatic pilot had been
locked into two Ills approach beams
the localizer which throws a narrow
beam down the center of the run
way, and the glide path which sets
the up or down angle of approach
This particular automatic pilot was
also handling the throttles, closing
them little when we bounced some
what above the glide path, and CIV
ing them quite a burst Of power
when a moderate turbulence dropped
us 20 feet or 80.
Handles Throttle, Too
We had a 20 to 80 mile cross

Two veteran Washington pilots
who make q living riding Uncle
Sans radio ranges when other
flyers are grounded because of icing,
fog and storms, have acquired the
habit of letting George" do the
worrying when the going gets
tough.
In fact, George" would be prac-
tically human except for the fact
that he never seems to get the
filters when Ice cuts out the low
frequency receivers, or when he
takes over the landing approach in
fog, rain and turbulence from the
pilots, Randolph Randy) Mulherin,
chief of the Civil Aeronautics Ad-
ministration airways flight inspec-
ton, and his assistant, Edgar
Rogers.
Now that the icing season has
commenced, as demonstrated by the
fatal crash OF an Air Force trans
port near Andrews Field last week,
Randy and Ed are glad their per-
sonalized automatic pilot, while
either cruising or in . landing ap-
proach, can be locked into very high
frequency radio beams which can
cut through ice forming On the re-
ceiving antennae.

Families looking forward to

frigerators and the like may as we'll
train their hopeful sights on 1949.
Partly prices are higher due to the
speed Americans are spending.
Government economists concluded
this from statistics collected from
the Departments of Commerce and
Labor and from the Federal Reserve
System.
Some members of Congress lay
high prices entirely to what the
United States is shipping abroad,
but Government statistics show that
in 1947 this country will ship only
6h per cent of its total gross out
put. This, the economists say, is
not enough to account for the man
ner~in which prices have jumped
Partly, of course, prices will con-
tinue high because of the goods we
send abroad.
1t is. a complicated picture. There
are several guesses in it. But this
Is the way the Presidents Council
of Economic Advisers figures it out

The two flyers were completely
relaxed, but their eyes were alert,
scanning the instruments, and
checking the clearance we had re-
ceived from the control tower to
make the automatic approach.
Either pilot could have taken
instant manual control had
George" put the airplane into an
awkward position, or if a fiutter had

which cross at right angles on the

New Standard Equipment
We made four approaches with

Each time George" put us down
at the proper air speed and altitude
for landing before the pilots took
over 20 to 40 feet over the end of
the runway.
The lis transmitters have been
installed as standard equipment at
the larger airports, and more and
more airlines are qualifying this
year to use them by following the

charge at Quantico, our cultural
center, If you please (almost all
Marine Corps schools are at Guam
tico, Va), he quickly rid it of the
disrupting element it acquired after
the war from the hundreds Of Marine
officers and men who were there
just waiting to get discharged.
He can build morale as quickly
as any officer I know, and he soon
got Quantico back to its normal
productive basis"
Gen. Gates believes his new job
will be tough one.
There may be doubt in Gen. Gates
mind of his ability to fill Gen.
Vandegrift's shoes, but he has been
groomed for the job, it would seem
from talking with his fellow Marines
with a careful and discriminating
eye over a long period of time.
Would Rather Be Lucky
Gen. Gates was among the first
to step ashore at Guadalcanal. He
commanded the 1st Marine Regi-
ment of the 1st Division, the boys
who wear the Guadalcanal shoul-
der patch.
| That operation, Gen. Gates says,
was tops for discomfort-the dark
out days of the war"
After Guadalcanal Gen. Gates
came back to the States and went
to Quantico to head the Marine
Corps schools.
A year and half and two promo
tions later he was sent again to the
, Pacific, this time to take over the
4th Marine Division during its at
tacks on Tinian and Saipan.
The following February he led
his division in the battle for 1--we
Jima, where 5,528 Marines lost their
lives and 1873 others felt the
sting of Jap bullets and shrapnel
and banzai charges.
In January, 1916, he returned to
Quantico as president of the Ma
rine Corps Equipment Board. On
June he became commanding gen.
eral of Marine Barracks, Quantico
and commandant of Marine Corps
schools.

UNESCO'S supporters" he observed
THE conference made some rea.
progress in two directions of su-
preme Importance" the librarian
said.
THE first was in shaping up the
program. Until now, UNESCO has
tended to be a heap of pet projects
from all sources, superimposed upon
the purposes conceived in it's consti-
tuition.
Sound Financial Steps
"At Mexico City, delegates strove
to hammer out a tighter program
Their efforts to reduce next year S
program to a reasonable set of prof.
ects were successful. UNESCO now
has good, sensible plan for 194s
which rejects high-sounding appeals
for world cooperation in favor of
steps aiming toward concrete prog
ress."
Second major achievement of the
conference was a matter of house
keeping. DR.. Evans predicted that
the adoption of sound financial
principles in regard to allotment of
funds will correct what he termed
the unfortunate administrative diff
Evening star., 1947-12-14

That kind of eating sends more
money into the grocery stores and
back to the farms. Prices rise
What's more, people have the
money to spend. They saved during
/ the war, partly through patriotism,
partly because OPA held prices
down.
Came the end of the war, and
labor generally got two rounds OF
wage increases. Workers had more
money to spend, but the more they
spent the higher prices went and
the less they got for their money.
The military collected mastering
out pay and spent it. Now veterans
are spending their terminal leave
pay.
This year, when prices failed to
drop as some manufacturers had
said they would, people tired of
waiting and bought at the jumping
prices.
So prices have risen by two thirds
since 1889.
The only thing that can stop that
upward buggy ride is more goods
on the market than people want, or
enough people just plain running
out Of money to spend, or some
new price control system.
Shipments Enter Picture
At this point the movement OF
goods abroad through 1948 enters
the picture. Through 1947 1t
amounted to only $4,000 0OO, ,0OO
as compared with our total pro-
duction of about 0,000, ,0O0, 900
Even so, If all those goods were to
stay at home next year it would
tend to drive home prices down.
| Contrary to general impression
the Marshall plan for aid for Europe
will not increase the amount of
goods going abroad this year. Gov
ernment economists figure that even
with the Marshall plan our exports
will drop little, to l4,300, 600, 900.
But the dollar value of exports
is only part of the story. The type
of goods We ship is more important
Much of it going to Europe is the
sort of goods that is short here at
home. Shortage piled on shortage
must mean higher prices.
| Shipment of goods in short supply
is worrying the Presidents economic
advisers. They agree Europe must
have help, but they say some sort OF
controls must be put on the use of
short supplies to keep American
prices from shooting straight
through the skylight.
Food, Steel and Coal
| Food, steel and coal are the major
worries. Europe needs them. We
need them. There isn't enough for
all.
The 16 European nations that are
willing to cooperate under the
Marshall plan made out list of
needs which shows how badly they
want the goods in short supply.
OF their total requirements, q
per cent are food and fertilizers, %
per cent equipment (steeD, IA per
cent coal and petroleum and per
cent iron and steel-69 per cent of
all they hope to buy here in 1948.

He had reported total income over
a five-year period of $4,000. But
agents of the Internal Revenue Bu-
reau say he used two methods to
conceal his actual income.
He went to his business establish
ment about 4:30 o'clock in the morn
ing, as this account goes. That was
three or four hours before his en-
ployes reported for work. In that
interval he sold-without knowledge
of his employees, because he feared
they might report to the Treasury
the business he did not report-a
considerable volume Of chickens,
ducks and turkeys.
He had still another method of
concealing the amount of his in
come, He wrote checks to non
existent farmers for nonexistent
poultry he claimed to have pur-
chased and resold. Then he cashed
the checks and pocketed the pro-
ceeds.
Over the five-year period, as
stated, he reported net income Of
$38, 900. Now the Internal Revenue
Bureau has submitted to him a bill
for $4,000 in additional taxes and
has referred the matter to the JUS
tice Department with recommen-
dation for criminal prosecution.
All the revenue men had to do,
once they began their investigation,
was to take his invoices for poultry
purchased and try to find the SELL
ers. They couldn't find some of
them and were told by others In the
business there were no such persons.

ting $42 under the incentive drive
Whether this would be legal ap-
parently is question, but in any
case Washington would have to con-
tend with American miners who
would object to getting a lower
price for their gold.
Secretary Of the Treasury Snyder
and Federal Reserve Board Chair
man Eccles already have expressed
concern over the increased amounts
of gold which have been flowing
into the country. This influx is re-
garded as a possible factor in in
ereasing imitation.
Other aspects of the Canadian
plan are less controversial, but
equally significant economically.
Mr.. Abbott urged that industries
which must import from the United
States concentrate on selling in dol
lar markets to make up for the cost
Of American materials and also swell
Canadian dollar reserves. In this
connection he mentioned Canadian
branch plants of American automo-
bile manufacturers.
Loan Arranged
As temporary relief for the dol
lar shortage, Canada has arranged
for q short-term loan of $500, ,OO0, :
600 with the Export-Import Bank.
But for more permanent help 1t is
looking to the stopgap aid bill for
Europe and the later Marshall plan.
The Senate stopgsp bill provides,
with certain stipulations, for use
Of up to IS per cent Of the funds
for purchases outside the United
States and its possessions, and the
House has shown no indications Of
eliminating this provision.
