Strong Defense Urged
By Byrd in Arlington

A strong national defense and
of the American free
enterprise system yesterday were
listed by Senator Byrd, Democrat,
of Virginia. as major ingredients
OF this country's world leadership.
The Senator, who is campaign
ing for reelection, spoke at re-
ception in his honor yesterday at
the Arlington home of Mrs. Harry
K. Green. The affair was spon-
sored by Democratic Women of
the Arlington Byrd-for- Senate
Club. About 200 attended.
II am for peace without ap-
peasement, the international ma
chinery to preserve it, and a
strong, efficient and vigilant mill
tary establishment at home and
abroad to enforce it." said Sem
ator Byrd. II take issue with
those in high places who continue
to say that war is inevitable. War,
in my opinion, is inevitable only
If we weaken ourselves at home
and thus become victims for Rus
sian aggression.
He added:
Il believe the first requirement
OF our leadership in the world
is the preservation of the free
enterprise system"

Bill Prepared 10 Hit
BUYERS Of Influence
By the Associated Press

A tough new law that would
punish people who hire influence
peddlers is in the works.
Nothing much can be done to
them now in most cases.
But Senator Hoey, Democrat
of North Carolina, chairman of
the Senate's permanent investi-
cations subcommittee, said he ex.
poets the new bill to provide sharp
hitting violators where
it hurts-in the pocketbook.
He said the proposed bill would
call for seizure of property sold
TO a person convicted of hiring
an influence peddler or using
other improper pressure on gov
eminent. It also would require
forfeiture of whatever sums were
paid the Government.
Senators Nixon. Republican Of
California and .Mundt, Republican
of South Dakota, both members
of the subcommittee, told a re-
porter they believe existing law
has teeth to punish the influence
peddler and passer of brides, and
those who accept graft, but
doesn't punish the man who hires
the peddler unless q conspiracy
can be shown.
This bill should be a good
spine-stiffener for the fellow
tempted to hire an influence ped
der Mr.. Nixon said.
Senator Hoey announced his
staff Is working on the bill. which
will be introduced in Congress
next year. He said it is too late
to expect to get it passed at this
session.

Fire Chief Will See
Commissioners on
.Co|ored Assignments

Fire Chief Millard H. Sutton
expected to see the District Com
missioners today about the next
move in his unsuccessful attempt
to assign six colored firemen as
substitutes in white fire COM
panies.
I'm sitting tight" Chief SUIT
ton said. I'm going to see the
bosses before anything else is
done"
Order Issued Thursday.
The fire chief issued an order
last Thursday, to go into effect
yesterday, that a colored fireman
be assigned to each of six white
companies. The assignments
were ordered. according to Chief
Sutton, to assure white firemen
that they would received earned
leave since any personnel short
ages could be filled by colored
f1remen.
Strong protests from leaders of
the f1remen's union and from
Representative Davis. Democrat,
of Georgia caused the cancella-
ton of the order hours before it
was to go into effect.
Chief Sutton was out of town
Saturday. But Deputy Chief Fred
Literal, after a telephone con-
ference with Chief Sutton, issued
the cancellation.

temporary halt when Mr.. Davis
introduced a bill to maintain seq

been dormant since.
In addition to complete inte-
grafton of the Fire Department,
solution offered to the manpower
problem include creation of an
other all-colored fire company to
take care of the surplus colored
f1remef1 or the institution Of a
platoon system. The platoon sys-
tenn would give company an all
colored platoon and an all-white
platoon working different shifts.

Physicists Entry Tops
Soviet Time in Model
Plane Endurance Test

DR.. Walter A. Good. the physi-
cist who developed the proximity
fuze of World War II. had figured
it might take at least four trials
at yesterdays Model Plan Show
to beat the Russian-held record
for radio-controlled, planes.
However, he was so far ahead
of the record on the first trial at
Andrews Air Force Base that he
didn't even bother with the rest
of the test flights.
His model aircraft, a mono-
plane with a 6-foot Widespread,
and of DR.. Goods own design,
was equipped with two extra gas
tanks. It remained aloft 40 min
utes and q seconds to wrest the
record from A. Aizenchteine Of
the U. S. S. R., which was made
last year. It was % minutes, Z
seconds.
Assist From Nature.
DR.. Goods plane ran out of gas
after rs minutes in the air. but
favorable thermals Cthe ideal
kind of currents for model plane
Iflight) kept it aloft. In explain
ing why the later flights were I'M
necessary, the 36-year-old physi-
cist, of 1902 Parkwood drive. Be-
thesda. Md, said:
ut couldn't have been a better
flight. I don't see how we could
have improved on it in later
trials. We worked those thermals
for all they were WORTH"
BY radio control, the plane, in
landing, came within 100 feet of
the prescribed position. About
/ 800 feet is allowed for this OPP
Grafton under the rules of the
Academy of Model Aeronautics,
governing body of model aviation
lin America, and the Federation
IInternationale Aeronautique of
Paris, the international governing
group.
Winner Disappointed.
DR.. Good, who is with the Johns
Hopkins Research Laboratory, was
a little disappointed, however. He
said he hoped his plane would re-
main aloft As minutes, to double
the Russia record, but, as he said,
|'I couldn't squeeze it out. It
scared to 800 feet"
DR.. Goods aircraft contained q
Ione-tube radio receiver. The adj
dition of two more gas tanks
brought his plane up to the maxi
mum weight permitted for the
wing and tail surface of his model.
The loaded plane was so heavy
that it required S00-foot take
off run to become airborne.
To establish a new record, a full
minute was required above the
Russian mark. Since more than
II minutes elapsed beyond the
Soviet-held mark. DR.. Good S
flight only needs formal certifica-
ton by the ANA and the FAI to
become official.

A Washington area youth, who
is used to winning model airplane
meets, yesterday took the top
honors at the seventh annual Ma
tional Capital Model Air Show,
held at Andrews Air Force Base,
Roger L. Barron, whose home in
Springfield. Fairfax County, Va,
is full of dozens of trophies, once
again showed a record number
of $50 contestants how it is done.
He won The Evening Star
Trophy, the National Airport Club
Trophy, the Douglas Aircraft
Corp. TROPHY and several other
awards for his sterling perform
ance. The 17-year-old youth will
enter his sophomore year at
Princeton University in the fall
He has come out first in many
of the National Capital meets.
$4,000 Attend.
About 10000 persons, undaunted
by the heat, spent a pleasant day
at the model air show.
Those who came early saw the
Russian record for sustained
flight of a radio-controlled mode.

record holder is DR.. Walter A
Good, the noted physicist who
dabbles in model planes on the
side.
In addition to his record, sew
eral others were broken as the
tiny, speedy, sleek ships, powered
by gas, jet and rubber band en-
gines, few through the air, theil

new records will have to be GER
titled by the Academy of Mode
Aeronautics, at 1925 Connecticut
avenue NV, governing body Of
model aviation. Russell Nichols
is its director.
Accidents Plentiful.
The usual number of accidents
to model planes-and to auto
mebiles-occurred. At least a doz-
en- big models crashed into cars
which were parked, but fortunate
ly did no damage.
A cream-and-black monoplant
might as well have been all black
to Donald .Straithwaite, IA, Of
Philadelphia. The ship first
crashed into q car and smashed
a wing. But like most modelers
he had a spare handy. He put
the new wing on and set forth
again on the path toward prize
But his aircraft didn't soar e
feet before it smashed into the
ground. This time the nose anC
engine were seriously damaged
Said he:
Il guess this washes me out"
A big feature of the show wa
q special demonstration of how
scale-models can fly. Capt. Gen.
Causey. the Air Forces project of,
fcer' for the show. demonstrated
the capabilities Of a B-25 ligh'
Mitchell bomber which he tool
four years to build. He shovel
how it could fly on one and two
engines. The little craft, &C.
curate in its detail, didn't wavel
at high speed.
| Another demonstration of scale.
