1t is conceivable-assuming GER
tain countries would make their
territories available to us-that any
essential objective could be hit now
Military men are aware, however
that the Russians have copied the
B-29 and may have extended its
range considerably by omitting such
items as presentation, leakproof
fuel tanks and fire control. Removal
of such equipment might add 1000
miles if the weight were given over
to additional fuel.
Radar bombing gets much atten-
ton in the SAC, along with special
training for bad-weather flying and
takeoffs with heavy loads.
Radar bombing means attacking
through the overcast, using elec-
tronic eyes that pierce clouds and
see clearly from many miles away
B-29 crews must practice such
bombing constantly, using natural
targets in all parts of the country
under circumstances which simulate
long missions.
Cross Training Practiced
Pilots are kept busiest by the
cross-training program. Each must
be not only pilot, but proficient
also as navigator, bombardier, ra-
dar operator, fight engineer and
gunner. Navigators must learn to be
flight engineers, radar operators and
bombardiers.
Maj. Gen. Leon w. johnson, COM
manding the 18th Air Force, with
headquarters at Colorado Springs,
Colo, hoped to Alaska recently to
see how a group of B-29s stationed
at Mile 26," a huge new base, was
making out.
He noted that on one night five
'bombers few over the geographic
North Pole and five hew over the
magnetic North Pole.
Bomber crews are finding some
interesting situations high over the
Arctic. One of their chief concerns
is winds. They have some reason
to believe that transpolar flights
can be made with tail or assisting
winds in both directions.

here may be betrayed by one Of the
educational foundations here or
under the Smith-Mundt Act. The
Smith-Mundt Act is known chiefly
as the act which finances the Voice
Of America broadcasts and related
activities, but 1t also contemplates
expenditures for educational ex-
changes between the United States
and other countries.
In this country there has been set
up the Board Of Foreign Scholar
ships. Named by the President, 1t
is charged with the selection Of
students, the designation of institu-
tions where they may study or teach
and general supervision of the pro-
gram.
The board meeting recently au-
thorized the first grant, that to DR..
Derk Bodde of the University of
Pennsylvania, who will go to China.
His project is the translation of the
second volume of a history of Chi
nese philosophy. He already has
translated the first volume.
Board Selects Students
The board is made up OF these
members: Francis Trow Spalding,
commissioner of education of New
York State, chairman; Miss Helen
White of the University of Wis
consin, vice chairman; Col. John N.
Andrews, representing the Veter-
ans Administration (veterans are
given preference); Miss Sarah Glib

Prof. Ernest o. Lawrence, Univer-
sity of California; Martin R. P.
MCGUIRE, acting dean Of the Grad

Catholic University, and John w.
Studebaker, commissioner of educa-
ton.
This board has delegated the pre-
liminary screening of applicants to
three agencies.
The Institute of International
in New York handles the
applications from students.
The United States Office of Edu-
cation in Washington serves those
seeking to teach in foreign ele-
mentary and secondary schools.
The Conference Board of Asso-
ciated Research Councils, also in
acts in cases of those
who wish to teach in foreign insti-
tutions of higher learning or to
pursue postdoctoral studies abroad.
Few Properly Qualified
The Institute for International
Education is getting it's machinery
set up to handle applications for
China, according to Herschel Brick

the institute.
There have been many letters
Of inquiry" Mr.. Brickell said, "but
relatively few from students prop

transportation to China, which is
necessary under existing circum-
stances.
Applicants will be screened by
national committee to be set up
by the institute and passed on
finally to the Board of Foreign
Scholarships. At present there are
no definite plans for regional dis
but there will be later"
The act specifies that regional
must be taken into con-
in awarding grants.

This might be extended to 5000
miles in a straight-line or shuttle
type bombing mission.
Gen. Kenney says that when SAC
has an 8,000-mile bomber-which it
expects to have in the B-36-it can
"hit any foreseeable target from
this continent and land again on

SAC bombers not only drop bombs
by means OF radar, they are checked
for accuracy by electronics. OFF,
cials believe that makes for a highly
accurate analysis of bombardier
skill.
The B-29s have been trained to
operate independently as we'll as in
squadrons and groups. The reason
is partly to make each crew lead
crew in event of rapid expansion,
and partly to prepare for possible
circumstances in which attacking
planes will be dispersed or follow
separate routes to avoid defense
concentration.
For similar reasons training
stresses night flying and bad-weath-
er operations. Interceptors are less
efficient at night and sometimes are
grounded by bad weather.
SAC headquarters are at Andrews
Field near Washington. In addition
to the 9Th and 18th Air Force, it
directly administers bombers and
fighter wings at Selfridge, MacDill
and Grenier Fields in Michigan,
Florida and New Hampshire, and
a reconnaissance wing and an aero
nautical chart service.
Some of these units are specialize
ing, in antisubmarine warfare,
search and rescue and cold weather
jet fighter operations.
The command expects to have the
B-50, a more powerful version of
the B-29, and the huge B-36 in

squadro are in service. The COM

some of the facts which make the
international situation even more
threatening than in the summer OF
1899.
President Truman did not reveal
for instance, that our Government
knows about the pressure now be-
ing put on Norway and Denmark to
sign treaties with the U. s. s. r. on
the same pattern as those signed
by the Soviet satellites. Neither did
he speak about the battle order of
the Red armies, which are poised
to strike at moments notice wher-
ever the Kremlin war planners de-
eide. Nor did the President reveal
the fact that, on orders from the
Kremlin, Russian press and radio
broadcasters now speak of Alaska
as part Of Russia.
These are important details en-
tering into the overall picture of
Russia's determination to come to
a showdown with the one great re-

capable of frustrating her imperial

It's Just As We'll If COP. Forgets '48Labor Pledge

Philadelphia (LPA) U You won't have to read the fine print in the Re publican Party's platform to learn there's nothing much in it for the people of the US, and very little for organized labor.
 The draft presented to the conven- tion Wednesday-and forgotten by Thursday when the real business of the convention, nomination of presiden- tial candidate, took place-is worded in the usual vague generalities. That's a characteristic not confined to the COP platform, of course.
 Here's what it says about labor: Collective bargaining is an obi- gation as we'll as a right applying equally to workers and employers; 1; and the fundamental right to strike is subordinate only to paramount considerations of public health and safety. Governments chief function in this field is to promote good will, encourage cooperation, and where resort is had to intervention to be impartial, preventing violence and requiring obedience to all law by all parties involved. We pledge con- tinuOus study to improve labor management legislation in the light of experience and changing condi- tions."
 Omitted from the platform were any mention of the specific points on which optimistic labor spokesmen thought they'd get COP agreement federal aid to education, minimum wage legis- lation, specific mention of the FEPC law, labor extension service in the Labor Dept.

Good Relations
 Pay Dividends

Washington, ID. .-American Federation of Labor organizers have cited 82 companies as ''out- standing for good labor relations" " the current AFL monthly survey says.
 The AFL organizers cited the fol- lowing conditions which the survey pointed out bring about good labor relations:
 "(a) Management is always ready to meet with union representatives to discuss any matter of mutual concern. (b) On both sides: Good faith, sim cerity, mutual respect, a desire to un- derstand each others viewpoint, each knows the other will not take unfair advantage. Co Management always consults with the union before making any change, however slight, in policy affecting workers. (d) Rapid handling of grievances. (e) Union takes re- sponsibility; does not make excessive demands. (f) Frequent meetings be- tween management and union officers to discuss plant problems build mutual
 
 QUICK ADJUSTMENT
 Several cases of particular inter- est were mentioned, including: Midwest rubber company: In these (twO) plants, there are weekly meetings of union and management where problems are discussed and grievances settled before they be- come issues. West Coast Central Labor Union: The CLU and dele gates take part in all civic affairs and have representatives on all social agencies. We have built up good will for the AFL throughout the city and our labor-management relations are of the highest.
 Midwest metal working plant Bonus plan based on labor costs com pared to total business seems to work out quite well. North Central cloth ing factory: New employees are taken through the shop, operations are ex- plained to them, they meet the union shop chairman who explains the his tory. of the union and its function in the shop. Management and union ad- dress employees over the the public address system reaching all parts of the plant.
 REMARKABLE OUTPUT GAIN''
 Chemical plant: Employees were granted 40 hours week with same take home pay as for 48 hours. Result: Remarkable increase in production. Paint industry em- ployers' association: Regular ad- justment board meetings are held where differences are settled sO that serious disputes do not de- velop."

Employers Sue Because Member Settled Strike!

CHICAGO-(FPR)-The Chicago Foundrymen's Assn. is trying to make it hard for an employer to settle with a union.
 This became evident here when the association filed suit for $300,O00 dam ages charging the Delta Star E1ec- tric Co.,, a member, had negotiated a strike settlement with the AFL mold CTS and foundry workers and thus forced other members to grant high CT raise.
 The unions 5000 members struck against the association from May 1 to "A, shutting down "A foundries. The association charged that De1ta-S Star made a 13c an hour settlement with the union May 5 in violation of an agreement to abide by association ne- gotiations.
 The employers outfit had made a pre-strike offer of 10c an hour but was forced to grant a 12c increase af- ter the Delta-Star action. Delta Star has notified the association of its in tention to withdraw.

Twenty National Groups Demand Public Housing

Washington (LPA)-Meeting a matter of few days after the ad- jOurnment of Congress representa- lives of 20 national organizations including AFL and CIO issued de- mand that Congress ''be recalled in- to immediate session to act on the aft-Ellender-W Wagner Housing Bill. including its aids to private enter prise, federalIy aided public hous- ing, rural housing, sIum clearance and research"
 Since either the Republican Con- gressional leadership or President Truman can call Congress back, the 20 groups first wired their demand to six Presidential nominees at the COP convention: Taft, Dewey, Stassen, Warren, Vandenberg, and Martin. They also addressed wires to House Majority Leader Halleck and Senate Majority Whip Wherry.
 Obviously the housing bill which passed the Congress in its waning hours is an empty shell" the 20 or ganization spokesmen wired. Tt does not meet the crying need of the vet eranS or other citizens of the US who are most in need of housing within their financial reach"
