Era Before Vitamins

Long before anybody ever heard
of vitamins, sailors found that the
cranberry helped ward off scurvy.
Old-time windjammers, sailing the
seven seas out of New England
ports, stocked their galleys with
barrels of cranberries from which
mariners were encouraged to eat
handfuls of the raw fruit. No prod
uct of the soil is more truly North
American than the cranberry. In
dian medicine men deserve credit
for having introduced it to the Pill
grims. Modern science deserves
more credit for improving the quail
ity and increasing the harvest of
this bright-red, tart-tasting berry.
Much of it's vitamin c is retained in
cooking by the cranberry's high
acid content.

Films 10 Demonstrate
New Driving Signals;
Traffic Sets Record

Short movies will be used next
month to teach District drivers
how to use the new traffic hand
signals.
Traffic Director George E. Ke-
neipp disclosed these plans while
announcing that Washington traf-
fic volume had reached an all-time
high.
He told the commissioners Traf-
fic Advisory Board that the hand
signal movies would be shown in
nearly all theaters starting Feb
ruary l.
At the same time, Mr.. Keneipp
reviewed traffic accident figures for
1916 to show the effectiveness of
the safety campaign launched in
August after two bad crashes
aroused the city. A decided drop
was registered in the accident rate
Immediately after the campaign
got under way.
Counts taken on 13 busy streets
showed a l per cent increase in
traffic over 1941 for December, while
last November was 3.8 per cent
above the 1941 volume figure for
that month, he said.
In contrast with the post-August
drop in accidents, Mr.. Keneipp said,
in the first part of 1916 accidents
we're up At per cent over the same
period in 1945.

DE Casper Expected
Ito Be Asked 10 Form
New Italian Cabinet
~ III. Associated Press

ROME, Jan. 21.-Provisional Pres
ident Enrico de Nicola today set
about trying to find new Italian
government to replace the cabinet
OF Premier Alcide de Gasperi, which
resigned last night-to the surprise
Of some members.
The general expectation here was
that Mr.. De Nicola would commits
sion Mr.. De Gasperi to form another
government-his third since the
armistice perhaps with smaller
Leftist representation than before.
The President scheduled confer
ences today with Mr.. De Gasperi
and four other former Premiers and
with leaders of the major parties in
the Constituent Assembly.
Mr.. De Gasperi's resignation was
SO much his own idea that some of
his ministers were reported to have
learned OF it from the newspapers.
just before leaving the Office last
night, Mr.. De Gasperi commented to
newsmen:
"All parties must assume loyal OBJ
legations, without which the gov
ernment cannot be efficient and
cannot give the impression of being
compact and stable, nor assure it
self of confidence internally or
abroad"
This was his newest way of saying
what he had said many times be-
fore: That the other parties in the
coalition with his Christian Demo-
crats-the Communists, Socialists
and Republicans-could not enjoy
the practical benefits of being rep
resented in the cabinet and still en-
joy the right of sniping at the gov
ernment's policies.
Thus, apparently, he decided to
force the much-heralded political
crisis by resigning, to the definite
chagrin of the Socialists and Com
munists, whose newspaper organs
could find no pleasure in the pres
ent state of affairs.

by the Associated Press

OAKLAND, Calf, Jan. 21.-A
WAVE flight orderly was killed and
20 other persons, including three
women, were injured in the crash
of a four-engined Navy plane at
Oakland Airport yesterday when,
for the first time in more than 10000
landings, radar ground control
failed to guide ship to safety.
The big naval air transport plane
landed $50 feet short OF the fog
shrouded runway and crashed into
q four-foot rock wall at the edge OF
the field.
It's undercarriage sheared away
and the plane skidded across the
field on it's fuselage for 1000 feet,
shedding wreckage and passengers
as it went. Then it caught fire and
burned.
The dead WAVE was identified by
the Navy today as Aviation Special
ist BIC Margaret Wallace. whose
father is Harry w. Wallace, Pitcairn,
Pa.
Maryland Man Burned.
Most seriously hurt of the sur
vivors was 1t. dg) F.. A. Michalek
from Great Mills, Md, who was
burned.
Most of those injured suffered
only abrasions. Many remained
strapped in their seats until the
plane stopped.
1t. (jg) Edythe Bowie. fight nurse
from East Rygate, VT, remained in
her seat and helped others in the
crash even though she suffered from
shock.
1.-The fire started Immediately"
she said. THE boys were wonderful
in helping"
Flying from Moffett Field, only
about 40 miles south of Oakland,
the plane carried crew of seven,
including the WAVE who was killed,
and IA passengers.
The only woman on the passenger
list was 1t. Comdr. L. A. McNaugh-
ton of the Navy Nurse Corps from
Hastings, Nebr. She was detained
In Oak Knoll Naval Hospital for OBJ
servation.
Oakland was the first stop on a
scheduled flight across the Nation
for the plane. Twelve passengers
we're to have been picked up at Oak
land before the ship proceeded to
San Diego, Corpus Christi, Tex;
Pensacola, Fla; Jacksonville, Fla,
and the Naval Air Station, Wash
ington, D. G.
Despite the fog which covered the
bay area at the time of the crash,
the weather was considered routine
for airmen trained in radar-con-
trolled landings.
The Navy said that before today
1884 radar-controlled landings, L.
OIL in which the safety of the plane
and crew were involved and the bal
ance in training, had been made
without mishap.
Before today, Naval Air Transport
had flown 1,400,00O,0O0 passenger
miles without fatality.
The Navy said the pilot, 1t. Clyde
B. Mckinney of Glendale, Calf,
was making a normal GOA radap
approach" when for some unex-
planned reason the plane made
radical let-down and hit short OF
the field"
