Sandia Atomic Base In Military Top Secret

WASHINGTON, (P)-The army and navy said yesterday that con- struction and operations at the Sandia base near Albuquerque, N. M., are top secret under the atomic energy act of 1946.
 The services made the statement jointly in refusing the confirm or deny reports published in the Den yer Post that huge caverns are being dug in a mountain range near Albuquerque for atomic war defenses.
 The Posts copyrighted story described the project as super defense measure"
 The army and navy linked the cavern report with construction at the highly secret Sandia base in this joint release:
 "On July "A, l947, the war and navy departments released infor- nation regarding the armed forces special weapon project, in that re- lease it was stated that the prin- cipal field installation of AFSWP is Sandia base located at Albu- querque.'
 ."Construction and operations at this base fall in the category of re- stricted data under the atomic en- ergy act of 1946 and are also clas- sified military information. i Therefore amplification of the above quoted statement is consid- cred undesirable" 1 In the original announcement, the government said the armed forces special weapons project twill discharge all military serv- ice functions relating to atomic energy"

U. s. Submarines Complete Cold Weather Test

JUNEAU, (P) A U. s. navy submarine task force of four sub marines and a tender has com pleted a cold weather training program in Alaska waters, which included a dive by the submarine Boarfish beneath the polar ice cap. The voyage took the units within sight of the Siberian coastline.

 The submarines maneuvered for weeks near the Arctic ice pack along the northern rim of Alaska on the training cruise which took them beyond a latitude of "A de- grees.
 The navy had no announcement on the results of the maneuvers which were witnessed by Rear Adm. A. R. McCann, head of the submarine force of the Pacific fleet. He joined the unit at Adak in the Aleutians after preliminary phases along the chain and north. ward to the Pribilofs. Besides the Boarfish, the sub marines Caiman, Club and Cabe zon and the tender Nereus made the trip through Boring Strait tC Point Barrow.
 The Boarfish, commanded by Comdr. J. E. Turner, and the Chub, Comdr. F. w. BeWley, re- mained at the edge of the ice car for 10 days.
 The tender Nereus, Comdr. H B. Dodge, accompanied by the Caiman, Comdr. N. D. Gage, anC the Cabezon, Comdr o. C. Cole went along the Alaska coast after 30 hours at the pace of the ice ! pack, Investigating bays and in. lets as far as Kotzebue. The uni visited St. Paul Island and stopped briefly at Kodiak.

Nat. Airlines
Has Instrument
Landing System

MIAMI, Dec. "a. - National
Airlines took a long stride toward
"all weather flying" today, with
the announcement that the CAA
had given National its official ap-
proval to employ the long
awaited instrument Landing
System"
Flight cancellations because of
bad weather. will be almost
thing of the past this winter at
most principal points on NAL
routes, company officials pre-
dicted.
Coupled with our fleet of
DC-6's, which fly over the wea-
Their in the sub-stratoSphcrc, this
means virtually all weather fly
ing for u.s." said President G.. T.
Baker.
Instrument Landing System,
Ills" in the jargon of the air
world, is the method by which
the pilot guides, his ship by in
struments to a landing on an
airport which may be complete
ly "socked in," Obscured from
his vision by smoke, fog, rain,
snow or whatever else man or
nature might produce.
At first, GAA is limiting lis
landings to a 800 feet ceiling
which means the plane must
break through the weather
shroud and permit the pilot to
see the ground at point no
lower than 800 feet. Without Ills,
the ceiling requirement is 500
feet-and operators estimate
that the reduction to 300 feet will
cut delays and cancellations to
less than half of last winters
record. AS pilots become more
familiar with Ills, and as it
proves itself in operation, it is
expected that the minimum cell
ing will be reduced. The system
is designed to permit the pilot
to bring his ship Ito position
Just a few feet above a runway,
solely by instruments.

9O-Day Mouing
Notice May Be
Rescinded Soon

Commissioner Louis Car
bonell has received a phone
call from Representative
George Smathers relative TO
the Poinciana project. Car
bonell told The Citizen that
Smathers informed him that
the order giving Poinciana
residents S0-day notices to
vacate will be rescinded.
Smathers and John Kenny.
Under Secretary of the Navy.
had held a conference over
the Poinciana Place 90-daY
moving notice issued last
week. It was at this confer
ence that Kenny said the
order would be rescinded.
No hope was given Smath-
ers that the AZ families would
moi nave 10 seek ofher nVln9
quarters. but only that the
moving notice would be ad-
vanced to six or IL months.
Smathers also said that
there would be positively
no evictions. This statement
was also made by the Sub
marine Base authorities.
Reason for the need for
the Poinciana Place quarters
is said to be necessary be-
cause of the large number
of Navy families soon TO be
stationed in the city.
