New United Air Base
Boasts Repair Staff
With Pride in Work
BY W. H. Shippen, Jr.
S'or S.off Correspondent

SAN FRANCISCO, April 30
Americans who have lost faith
since the war in their mechanics
and repairmen would think that old
times were back again if they could
visit the big maintenance base dedi-
Gated here yesterday by United Air
Lines.
Although the s5,OOOOOO plant it.
self is new enough to appear futur-
istic, the mechanical force which
mans it has old fashioned ideas such
as pride in their work and a deter
mination to turn out better prod
uct than the people across the run
way.
The workers seem to enjoy help
ing to maintain the power and di-
rection of United's aircraft-power
which may come to them in 2-ton
packages and direction measured by
instruments that require more deli
cate adjustment than ladies wrist

Governor Times Operation.
Gov. Earl Warren of California
volunteered as job timer yesterday
when the tractored a new DC-6
into one of the maintenance dry
docks" and began to pluck the big
ship apart. The Governor told his
friends later his wrist watch showed
it took 5 minutes each to pull the
reversible propellors off and only IS
minutes to unseat the engines and
swing them away on overhead
cranes.
The docks are arranged to allow
a four-engined transport to be COW

hinges from hangar roof girderS and
are raised by pushbutton control
from the floor to bring every part
of the airplane within arms reach

If the job is top priority rush" a
whole swarm of repairmen can be
put to work without getting in each
others way. They can move over,
around under and inside the air
craft to make adjustments or to
dismount engines, instruments and
other parts for removal to specially
shops.

Any one of four engines required

enough to pull a railroad train

Grange Heads Oppose
Plan for New Revision
OF Farm Supports
BY the Associated Press

PORTLAND, Me-, Nov. 11.-A
sharp fight in the next Congress:
over farm-price support laws was
forecast today by National Grange
leaders.
Here for the farm organizations
82d annual convention, Grange
leaders expressed opposition to q
Congressional proposal for drastic
revision of a long-range farm Law
passed by the Republican-controlleo
Eightieth Congress.
They also predicted the propose
would be opposed by President Tru.
man and his Agriculture Depart
ment
The revision proposal was made
in Washington yesterday by Repre-
sentative Cooley, Democrat, of North
Carolina, who is due to become
chairman of the House Agriculture
Committee in January.
Would Revise Parity Formula.
Mr.. Cooley's attack on the COP
farm law was directed principally
at its change of the present formula
for calculating the so-called parity
or fair" farm prices and a shift
tosa flexible support program. Both
are due to become effective in 1850.
parity is a price calculated to
give farmers a return on their
products equal to that prevailing
in former period generally
favorable to agriculture)
The Grange, as well as the Amer
ican Farm Bureau Federation, sup
ported these provisions when they
were before the last Congress.
Albert S. GoSs, master of the Ma
tional Grange, said his farm organi-
zation was expected to oppose the
revision.
In his keynote speech at the open
ing session of the Grange conven-
ton, Mr.. Goss described the law
as providing essential "defenses"
against another farm depression.
Newsome Sees Opposition.
Herschel D. Newsome, master of
the Indiana State Grange and
member of the conventions Com
mittee on Agriculture, predicted the
Grange would fight Mr.. Ccoley's
plan to kill improvements in the
Federal farm program"
The new farm law would lower
parity prices on most crops and
raise them on most livestock prod
uctS.
1t also would replace the present
rigid 80 per cent parity price sup
ports for basic crops with a system
of flexible supports ranging from
go to 80 per cent of parity.
Supports would be high in times
of crop shortages to encourage pro-
duction and low in times of sur
pluses to discontinue overproduc-
ton.
/ Mr.. Goss, who was among the
first to urge the flexible system,
favors it because, he said, it would
lesse nthe need of Government con-
trolls.
MIR. Cooley, on the other hand,
favors continuation of present sup
port levels. He would couple them
with Government production and
marketing controls to prevent sur
pluses.
Congress Defended.
The Republican-controlled Eighth
eth Congress-a target of President
Truman during ire recent campaign
was defended before the conven-
ton.
The Oranges legislative counsel,
J. T. Sanders of Washington, told
the delegates the Congress could
not rightfully be called a "do-noth-
ing" body. Such a description was
Evening star., 1948-11-11

given the Congress by Mr.. Truman
Our judgment is" Mr.. Sanders
said, that 1t was a good average
Congress-"
Mr.. Sanders represents the Grange
at congressional hearings OF legisla-
tive matters relating to agriculture
1t is the policy of the Grange to
maintain a non-partisan position
in politics.

ALASKA AIR CARRIERS

The Civil Aeronaulics Board has issued a proposed rule for the "al- deviation of the operational prob lens" of Alaska air carriers oper ating within Alaska according to a notice issued by the Bureau of Safety Regulation of the CAB.
 At the present time certified air carriers operating within the Ter ritory in applying for air carrier operating certificates have had to comply with Part Al of the Civil Air Regulations which are now con sidered by the Civil Aeronautics Board and the Civil Aeronautics Administration as being impracti- cal and unavoidable in many in- stances as applied to Alaska oper- ations. The proposed rule will all low the CAA Administrator, after thorough investigation, to author ize company to either operate segment of or the entire route un- der Part 42 if it is found to be more applicable and if that operation can be conducted safely under Part 42 It is understood that if the proposed rule is finally approved, the threat will be removed to many in, .Iya ,r,t, otherwise have to cease operations should requirements of Part Al be enforced. Among other things that have Served~ as impedimentS to certain air carriers in Alaska is the requirement. in Part Al that those carriers had to have certain communication facilities and dis patching systems wholly unfeasi- 1.c because Of the relatively small size of their operations and remote ness of areas served.
 The proposed rule will not be finaIly acted upon until the earl.J par. of October after receipt of comment from interested persons. Communications should be submit ted to the Civil AeronauticS Board attention Bureau of Safety Regula- ton, Washington 25, DC,
