Cope Verde Volcano
Possible Huze Cause,
PAA Report Says

a volcanic eruption in the
Cape Verde Islands, off the
west coast of Africa, may be
the cause of the haze that has
clouded Miami and the Carib-
bean for several days. This
theory was advanced by Ro-
bert S. Bush, Latin American
Division meteorologist for Pan
American World Airways at
Miami, after receiving reports
from PAA observers in Latin
America.
Fogo Volcano in the Cape
Verdes erupted violently June
II. The eruption was proceed
ed and accompanied by explo-
slons and earthquakes. A vast
black cloud of smoke mush-
roomed up $4,000 feet and
ashes blanketed Fogo Island,
plane crews flying over the
area reported. The crater it.
self built up to a height of
about $500 feet. While the
eruption began to subside by
June II, it was still active,
with visible flam and
smoke clouds, the airmen said.
Bush believes this volcanic
ash, borne by the prevailing
aasterly winds, drifted across
the Atlantic and is responsible
sor the prolonged haze over an
area stretching from Miami to
Trinidad.
While the Cape Verdes are
about 1000 miles from Miami,

Senate Determined
 To Defeat Draft Of. 

WASHINGTON, (P) = Senate leaders claimed enough votes to- day to defeat the move setting the minimum draft age at. 18 years and six months.
 A test will come Monday on the amendment by Senator Morse R- Ore.) to the Senate bill on uni- versal military training and ser vice UMTS. The bill calls for lowering the draft age from the present 19 to IS years-six months younger than Morse proposes. The vote Monday will be the ! first measure of full Senate opin- ion on a. provision of the contro- versial bill which originated with the Defense Department. Senators Lyndon Johnson O. TexJ, manager for UNITS, told reporters that the Morse amend ment twill be defeated by a sub stantial margin"
 Most of the Senate,s time yes. terday was spent in a brisk ver- bal exchange between Morse and a fellow Republican, Senator Cain of Washington. &
 In polite but barbed language, Cain told Morse, seated a few feet away, that Morse's numerous amendments would cripple the bill and were unrealistic.
 Senator Wherry RINeb.) raised the question in the Senate yester- day whether approval of the bill to draft l8-year-olds would be re- garded as approval also of send- ing four more US. divisions to Europe.
 Wherry has contended that no ground forces should be dis patched to join Eisenhower's army until Congress passed the policy.

WASHINGTON, (P)-Two new heavy jet bomber types, able to carry atomic bombs speedily to distant targets, are part of an un- folding picture of revised Ameri- can air strategy.
 The air force has disclosed it is hastening into the building of B-52's, short-cutting the usual practice of trying experimental models before ordering new plane put on the production line. First of these big jets is expected to be delivered this year.
 At the same timefi 1t has order ed construction of two all-jet ver- sions of the giant B-38, these to have the swept-back wings which give airplanes greater speed.
 Out of a news conference by Air Secretary Thomas K. Finletter also emerged an outline of the air war plans into which the new bombers will be fitted. In answer to questions, Finletter said:
 The United States is interested in getting bases for its aircraft within the North Atlantic treaty organization area" North Africa. is considered as being in the area which of course includes western Europe and islands such as Bri- tain and the Azores.

CIO Objects To Governments Cost Of-Living Index

WASHINGTON, P)-The CIO charged Saturday that the gov ernment's new-type cost-of-living index which may be used to de- termine immediate pay boosts for more than 100000 workers, does not reflect the actual rise in prices.
 The pay increases-four or five cents per hour-are allowable un- der formula adopted last Tues day by wage stabilizer Eric John ston and amended by him to per init cost-of-living adjustme nj s agreed to by management and la bor before the Jan. 25 wage freeze.
 But the question is, will they be based on the new-type index or the old-type. It might make a cent or SO difference.
 The 100000 employees of the auto industry will share the be- nanza. Some of them-at Ford and Chrysler-would' have been de- nied the full amount of adjust ment had Johnston no. acted.
 The cost-of-living increases plus other raises they have received in the past year would have pushed through the 10 per cent pay raise ceiling, in the unamended wage stabilization order.
 The pay adjustments are made every three months, at the rate of one cent an hour up or down with every rise or fall of 1.14 points in the bureau of labor statistics con- sumers' price index.
 The bureau, acting to gear its measurement of living costs to changing buying habits, Friday put out its first new-type month ly index. It contained 25 new items and cut down the import ance Of food in the family budget

of a moderate income family.
 This drew the fire of the CIO, which argued that food prices have zoomed since the Korean fighting began last June, and this was no time to begin a new kind of index. At least 2,700, ,000 work CTS now have contracts calling for periodic adjustments up or down as the index changes.

However, in the House a strenuous
fight is being put up to separate the
UNIT from the draft and to raise the
age limit. This debate will go on until
the end of this week, being led by
Representative Barden Of North Caro-
lima, Democrat, who is trying to sep
arate the two provisions. He is being
assisted with considerable Republican
backing and is hoping to substitute
his bill which would retain the 10 to
26 year age brackets and extend the
service to only "a months. 1t is the
belief of many legislators that the
present bill would not only wreck the
colleges and universities and the edu-
cational system and many boys would
not complete their education but also
that the job of defense is a mans job

Biologist to Quiz
Fishermen on Savage

The Savage River fisherman and
his catch will be studied again this
year by Maryland's biologists The
Department of Research and Edu-
cation in conjunction with the Mary
land Department of Game and In
land Fish Commission will observe
and analyze the catch of trout and
other species from the river on April
Is and 16. The fishermen are asked
to cooperate by showing their catches
to the Investigators.
A similar survey last year showed
that approximately 25 percent of the
trout which had been stocked in the
river previously were removed in the
first two days of the season. 1t also
showed that of the total number of
creeled trout, only II percent were
native fish, the balance having been
placed in the river from Maryland
hatcheries.
One of the important facts eX-
pected to come out of this years sur
vey is the percentage of carry-over
of last years stocked fish. The trout
placed in the Savage River in 1850
were marked by fin clipping and the
biologists will be on the lookout for
these fish.

Maryland To Study
Safety Methods of
State of Connecticut

The State of Maryland up-to-da
this year has had 1873 fatal accidents,
while the State of Connecticut, a COM
parable State in population, primary
roads and number of automobiles has
only had 81.
Paul f. Burke, Executive Director
of the Maryland Traffic Safety Com
mission and Sergeant High |. Kava-
naugh Of the Maryland State Police,
assigned to highway safety, left for
the State of Connecticut to make a
survey of their highway safety pro-
gram.
Governor McKeldin, officials of the
State Roads Commission, and the
Maryland State Police believe that
much can be learned from the State
of Connecticut, whose highway safety
program under the direction of Will
liam Green last year won a number
of outstanding awards for the safety
record of the State of Connecticut. In
the past few years Connecticut also
has been first in the nation in the
field of highway safety, according to
the National Safety Council records
1851 will see the millionth United
States traffic death, according to the
statistics of the National Clearing
House A careful check of the records
show that 963,360 persons have died
in the United States from automobile
accidents up until the end of 1850
According to last years National
Record $4,000 died, with probability
of this year hitting over $4,000. Some
time this year the millionth person
will be killed.
