Wife Radios Ham
Via Africa That
She's Locked Out
By the Associated Press

CHICAGO, Feb. 5.-Locked out OF
her home in freezing weather, q
housewife sent a radio message 10000
miles to attract the attention of her
father-in-law, an amateur radio
operator, who was only so feet away.
Ham operators Ed Beane (W9MO)
and Walt Ashton (W9ONT), both of
suburban Oak Park, were engaged in
|three-way conversation with sta
ton ZS6KD, johannesburg, Union
of South Africa, several days ago.
While Mr.. Beane was busy at his
transmitter, his daughter -in-law
Mrs. Rita Beane, stepped momen-
tarily to the front porch. A gust of
wind blew the door shut and she
was locked out.
Earphones clamped to his head.
Mr.. Beane was unable to hear her
frantic poundings or the ring Of the
telephone as Mrs. Beane tried to
reach him from a neighbor's home.
Finally, Mrs. Beane telephoned
Mr.. Ashton and asked him to get a
message to Mr.. Beane, re-establish-
ing contact with ZS6KD, about 5000
miles distant, told the Johannes
burg operator what had happened.
In a moment the bliSsful Mr..
Beane was startled to hear the voice
of his far off radio friend as he said:
u say, Ed, old man, Mrs. Beane
is locked out and freezing to death
Let her in"

Closer Emp|oye Ties
Urged by nam Head
ey the Associotsd Press

ROANOKE, Va, Feb. 5.-Wallace
F. Bennett, president Of the National
Association of Manufacturers, last
night appealed for closer relation
ships between employer and
employe.
In an address at a dinner Of Vir-
ginia manufacturer and business
men, MIR. Bennett held free enter
prise can be preserved and strength
ened only if all men and women who
work for industry feel they are
part of it.
Mr.. Bennett, Salt Lake City
paint and varnish manufacturer,
said spiritual leadership" is needed
in industry.
This leadership, he said, can come
only from the management of busi-
ness-not from laws, Government
edicts or union contracts.
Managers of industry, who control
the processes of production and pro-
vide the jobs, have the responsibility
to provide "the spiritual satisfac-
tions that should 60 with them:
these intangibles that mean so much
more than money" he added.
The chief long grange purpose OF
the National Association of Manu-
facturers, its president said, is to
preserve and strengthen the Amer
ican free enterprise system.
