British JET Bomber
May Be BoughtbyU.S.
And Built by Martin

Air Force Secretary Finletter to-
day indicated that the Air Force
may buy the British Jet light
bomber Canberra and said the
Glenn L. Martin Co. plant near
Baltimore would produce the plane
If it was bought.
He also told the Pentagon press
brief1ng this morning.
/. A prototype of the B-52
heavy bomber, an enlarged ver-
sion of the BAT Stratojet. may
fly this year.
2. The bugs" have been worked
out of the Northrup F-89, twin
engine all-weather night fighter,
and the plane is going into accel-
Grated production.
Both Planes Tested.
The Secretary indicated the Air
Force probably also would buy the
B-5l Martin jet light bomber. The
Air Force has been testing and
studying both planes for some
time, but no matter what decision
is finally reached, the Martin
company will produce the new
light bomber.
In speaking of the Canberra,
Mr.. Finletter said it was a beau
tifully performing plane, versatile
and with a very good range"
The Secretary said performance
of the Russian-madeM IG-15 jet in
action in Korea had not affected
Air Force procurement in plane
types. He said. however, we must
face the unpleasant fact that the
MIG is good plane" He added
that the MIG should teach us all
the other people can produce
good planes ana that it is not an
American monopoly.
Tactical Air Force Problems.
Some reports I have indicate
a rather high respect on our part.
also, for the pilots flying the MIG
in Korea" Mr.. Finletter said.
He said the tactical air arm of
the Air Force has become a new
concern. 1T is now a much more
immediate problem because of the
fact that the North Atlantic
treaty organization has been set
up and because of our plan to
send troops to Europe" he said.
He explained that few years
ago Air Force emphasis was not
put on air defense and tactical
aviation for two reasons-the
Russians did not have the atom
bomb and We did not have as
much money as we do now to
spend on the Air Force.

To Probe Charges Of
Bad Living Conditions
BY the Associated Press

SAN ANTONIO, Tex. Jan. 20.
Assistant Secretary of the Air
Force Eugene Zuckert today start
ed one Of three Investigations into
living conditions at Lakeland Air
Force Base.
He arrived late last night at
the giant reception center for
future airmen.
Air Force investigators from
nearby Kelly Field already are
checking and the Senate Pre-
paredness Subcommittee has sent
an unidentified investigator to
the field.
The three investigators were
ordered after the Senate Armed
Services Committee received re-
ports that some recruits had died
of. pneumonia and that recruits
weren't housed or uniformed
properly.
Commander Denies Charges.
Maj. Gen. Charles w. Lawrence
Lakeland commander, said there
were no unhealthful conditions
He said only two men have died
at the field in the last % months,
neither from pneumonia.
mo one is seriously i'll at the
base, nor has there been in the
past month" Gen. Lawrence said.
Until recently Lakeland was
the only designated reception CEN
ter for the Air Force. During the
month of January it was swamped
with new recruits. housing 10000
at one time.
Some of the recruits were
housed in tents because of the
jam and normal basic training
was suspended. The base became
simply a processing center.
A public information officer at
the base last night said some men
still were living in tents.
They're 12-man tents" he said
$4,000 at Base Now.
The officer said there were
about 10000 men at Lakeland
now, and that starting February
l a flve-Week basic training course
would be inaugurated.
Before the rush of recruits
caused by the Korean war, Lack
land handled $4,000 to $4,000
men
Senator Morse, Republican. of
Oregon demanded thorough in
vestigation" of the crowded con-
ditions.
The sad fact is that the Air
Force has done an exceedingly
poor job at Lakeland Air Force
Base in handling the boys, be.
cause the Air Force overreached
itself by accepting more enlist
ments than it could handle" SEN
ator Morse said last week.
Lackland's normal function is
TO give recruits basic military
training-drill, knowledge of fire
arms, etc. From Lakeland they
are assigned to various bases and
schools.
