Who Can Defy

Than Mrs. Tito

BELGRADE, June II (NANA). !.
In the crowded coffee houses
they are laughing over a story
about the new Mrs. Tito. She
went into a shop to buy a new
hat. The saleswoman showed
her a gay creation.
II love it, but I'm sure my hus-
band wouldn't like it," said Mrs.
Tito.
"Why, ma'am, you never want
to take any notice of your hus-
band" answered the woman,
unaware that her customer was
the wife of Yugoslavia's strong
man.
The newlywed Mrs. Tito
thought over this pithy advice
then bought the hat!

The Air Force today issued a
recall for all the 81 C-54 trans,

mercial airlines.
Headquarters here said the Air
Material Command at Wright
Patterson Field, Ohio, tele-
graphed notices of the intent to
end C-54 lease agreements.
The Air Force gave no expla-
nation of the recall other than

However, the operators were
advised that they would be in

schedules and other details.
One. airline said it had been
ordered to get it's leased

Immediately, so they could be
returned to the Air Force in
August.
Gradual Return Planned.
An Air Force spokesman said
this did not apply generally.
He said the planes would be
called back gradually.

81 four-engine aircraft on lease

Sixteen of the planes were
leased after World War II to
Pan American World Airways.
These are being used in Alaska,
Europe, Latin America and on

Trans World Airlines has
leased two. One is being used
in the Pacific airlift, and one
as a transatlantic commercial
cargo plane.
Five of the planes are leased
to Northwest Airlines. The re-
mainder are scattered among
eight non-Scheduled airlines.
Economy Move Seen.
Although the Air Force re-
fused comment, some operators
speculated that the action re-
f1ected administration demands
for economy. Air Force rental
fees have been criticized in Con-
gress as too low, and some Off
GERS hold the Air Force can oper-

can be hired to do.
The C-54. known commercially
as the DC-4 or Douglas Sky

about $38O,000. The military
rental is $4,821 a month. The

The tax is a special levy on
