Red Tape Tangles The Airways
tBY Tom Chase) CAP NeWSfeatures)

MIAMI, Fla.-Plcture stream lined passenger plane numbering along the skyways wrapped in rolls of red tape. It's like the Queen Elizabeth crossing the At lantic under sail or a dieSel-pOW- cred train being pulled by horses.
 Fantastic? Not at all. It happens every day. Whenever a trim clip per plane enters or returns from a foreign country, authorities wade through almost enough red tape to cover the aircraft from stubby nose to thin silver tail.
 For example - a minimum of 572 documents must be prepared for every flight from Miami or New York 10 Buenos Aires. The figure is based on the plane carry ing 200 items of cargo as well as passengers. If ii carries 300 items "a frequently happens-the total number of documents needed runs 10 more than 1000.
 This red tape costs the airlineS millions of dollars year. It makes tickets more expensive and slows passenger and cargo move ment. Some of the paper work is a hangover from the days of the clipper ships, when sailing cap tains had plenty of time to fill out forms. Other restrictions develop ed after the first world war in an effort to limit immigration and protect local markets.
 Passports, visas, invoices, bills of lading and the like multiplied through the years until today they provide assorted headaches for travellers and transportation com panieS and complicate the entire pattern of world air travel.
 For instance-there are 52 req sons why an alien may be exclud- ed from the United States. They range all inc way from possessing insufficient funds 10 suffering from constitutional psYchopathic inferioritY!
 Let's see what it costs and how red tape affects the largest air line, Pan American World Air ways. This company and it's affili- ates serve six continents. includ- ing 34 countries and colonies in the western hemisphere.

Ifs total red tape bill averages about sl.000.0o0 a year." accord ing 10 Huxley H. Galbraith. sYs- fem superintendent of facilitation. The ultimate payer of this ire mendous bill is inc passenger"
 Galbraith say the Internation- al Civil Aviation Organization QCAO) has recommended four Simplified forms to facilitate traV- el, as well as the establishment of money exchanges at international airports and curtailment of GUS toms, immigration and other off cial requirements.
 "If these recommendations went into effect throughout PAA's worldwide network. they would save the airline s4.0o0.o00 a year." he said. Waiting time at airports would be reduced by one-half."
 Thus far. of the Latin American countries, only Argentina, Brazil and the Dominican Republic have approved the recommendations. The United States has not. Replies must reach ICAO's headquarters in Montreal Dec. 31.
 Galbraith said fines and deten- ton expenses were "Very heavy as a result of preSent-day immi- grafton laws"
 ''These laws" he explained, ''provide that if an alien, after ad- mission into the United States, should, within five years, go in- sane, become a public charge, ad- VOCate the overthrow of the U. $. government, or fall within any of the 52 categorieS of eXcludable persOns-and that if these reasons for exclusion existed when he ar rived in the United States-the transportation company Wh h brought him to this country must foot his bill home"
 The transportation comp n y also has to pay a $1,OO0 fine in most instances.
 "PAA has been assessed Sl72- s27.42 in fines at the Miami gate way alone in inc past fen years" Galbraith said. adding that deten- lion xpenses-hotels. meals. cabs. telephone calls and similar items amounted 10 an additional S43.- 463.s4 for inc same period.
 The air line even has to hire private detectives sometimes to make sure the aliens do not leave while awaiting hearings on de- portation charges, he said.

Because farmers are the custodians

great deal upon the attitude farmers
have toward hunters. The sugges-

commandments would place hunters
in good standing with farmers,
avoiding many of the present I'M
fortunate incidents that occur dur
ing the hunting seasons:
/. Always drive in to the farmers
yard and ask permission to hunt.
2. Hunt only in the areas he desig-

wishes to keep inviolate.
8. Respect his fences. If neces-
sary to climb them, climb over by
a post. Use gates if possible, clos

place lowered bars.
4. Never shoot near houses, barns
or livestock
5. Leave his fruit and other crops

from him.
6. Go around fields where people
are working. Do not walk on seed

CHRISTMAS TREES

With the Christmas Tree season
arriving tree cutters will soon get
into full swing. If no stand i'm
provementS have been made before,
now is a good time to do some prun-
ing, thinning out of undesirable
trees, and observing open places
where there is no fir reproduction.
Small weed trees such as lamar
ack, lodgepole and popular should
be removed while they are small to
prevent them from becoming large
and crowding out Christmas trees.
Where trees are growing so close
together that they are not we'll for
med, they should be thinned out to
allow the remaining trees to pro-
perly develop. Where two leaders
on a stump are so close together
one branch should be removed to
allow the other to make good
growth. During the cutting opera
ton open areas that are not pro-
ducing trees can be observed and
orders places for trees to be de-
livered for planting next spring.

RESURRECTION OF THE
BRIER PATCH
For One Week Only
BIZ c. d. R.

(Old-timers will recall that this
newspaper once ran a feature un-
der the above heading. It met I'm
timely death, however, when the
reporter who wrote it removed tC
Spokane. Here's a resurrection OF
it-for one week only)
Beats all, doesn't it, how many
peculiar people it takes to make up
this old world of ours. Someone
goes to a lot of hard work and
expense to provide improvement for
our city, pays for it out of his own
pocket, and then others seem to
take delight in tearing it down.
We're talking about that lovely
lawn H. A. Geringer developed this
summer on the vacant lot adjoin-
ing his place of business. Many
have commented on how fine it
looked and what a nice improve
ment it was, and what a generous
thing for Mr. Geringer to do.
But evidently there are some who
do not have an eye for beauty and
are ready to tear down others Ct
forts. Some people have begun 10
cut across this lawn, and if con-
tinued there will soon be unsightly
paths through it. A young man who
should know better rode his horse
across it. And someone with a
small soul drove his car onto it.
Naturally Mr.. Geringer has be-
come quite put out. We don't blame
him. He has posted mo Trespassing"
signs, but that shouldn't have been
necessary. Are some people always
ready, willfully or thoughtlessly, to
help destroy others efforts towards
city improvement?

All this good talk of cleaning up
the city has naturally led into other
paths. Mayor Parker says many
are often offering suggestions as to
what the city government ought to
do. Last week a man came to him
with IL projects he thought the city
ought to undertake. Those are all
very fine" said the mayor, but
where is the money coming from?"
The good citizen had no solution
for that very necessary part of any
improvement project.
Mayor Parker has found the same
conditions facing him now as when
he served as mayor several years
ago. A great deal needs to be done
but it's mighty hard job figuring
out where the money is to come
from.

Protestant Churches

This is the 9th year such OBJ
servances have been held in vari-
Gus parts of the country under
direction of the Federal Council
of the Churches of Christ in
America.
The council, in a statement
yesterday, declared:
THE churches must recognize
in our Nation the unrighteousness
of segregation and such racial in
justices as denial of the right to
vote; the actual inequality Of the
so-called separate but equal op-
portunities in education, health.
public services; racial discrimina-
tions in housing"
The Rt. Rev. Angus Dun, bishop
of Washington, observed in an
other statement that "the place
for the church to begin in seeking
to overcome the injustices and in
dignities Of racial discrimination
is within its own life"
He added: when men truly
stand together before Christ they
know a oneness that overreaches
all differences. From that stand
ing ground they can move out to
reach across and even to break
through the stubborn barriers OF
the world"
Representative Judd, Republi-
can, of Minnesota, stated, There
can be no brotherhood of man
without first of all recognition OF
the fatherhood of God"
