Jet Ace Jabara Must Leave Korea One Short Record Of 16 Red MICS DOWned

SEOUL, R-America's first jet ace, Maj. James Jabara, flew his last two Korean missions today in an all-out but unsuccessful at- tempt to shoot down his 18th Red MIG and tie the Korean war rec ord.
 The cigar-chewing Jabara lost his chance to tie the record set by Capt. Joseph Mcconnell, when the few MICS he spotted on his first mission of the day disap- peared into the clouds over North Korea.
 On his second mission of the day-the tooth of his second tour in Korea and his 163rd of the war the Wichita, Kansas, Sabre jet pilot didn't even sight a Com munist plane.

 Allowance Ruled Tax-Exempt

WASHINGTON, dY - The Blu reau of Internal Revenue has de- cided that the 25 per cent cost-of- living allowance paid federal workers in the Hawaiian Islands, Alaska and Puerto Rico is not sub- ject to federal income tax, a pri- vate attorney said last night.
 Robert M. Weston, who has been counsel for group of work CTS protesting the application of the income tax to the pay differ ential, announced the Bureaus action.
 Weston said formal notice from the Bureau to it's various offices should go out within the next two weeks.
 A group of civil service work CTS, headed by c. H. Dyer, budget officer for the Civil Aeronautics Administration at Honolulu, has been battling against the tax for the past two years.
 At least 43,OOO government workers will be affected by the Bureau ruling, Weston said. He estimated that for a worker mak- ing S6,000 year, the ruling would mean saving of $500 an- nually.
 ''The chief counsel of the Bur eau of Internal Revenue" West on said, ''has5 conceded that the 25 per cent cost-of-living differ ential is not taxable under the internal revenue code"
 Weston said the ruling is retro active to Jan. 1, 1949. Persons who have paid the income tax on their pay differential, he said, will have to file claims with col lectors of internal revenue in or der to obtain refunds.

Workers at Anchorage Swamp Bureau Office With Refund Applications

ANCHORAGE, LR = Federal workers anticipating refunds on income taxes paid on the 25 per cent Alaska cost-of- living allow ance have swamped the Bureau of Internal Revenue office here with their applications, agent A. Verle Collar announced Thurs day.
 Henry Newman, of the Civil Aeronautics Administration, states that six per cent interest will be paid on taxes ruled unlawfully held the past few years.
 A 1850 census reported that 10,773 Alaskans worked for the federal government.
 The refunds should approxi- mate between $2OO and $500 a year per worker, Newman esti- mated.

16 Semi-Finalists Chosen In Miss Universe Contest

LONG BEACH, Calif., R - Which of 16 near-perfect contest ants is the most beautiful girl in the world?
 The answer-sure to give judges of the Miss Universe contest some uneasy moments-will be known tonight.
 There were at least Is impres- sive performers in the field of 26 competing in last nights prelim- inaries, judging from the applause of 2.5OO spectators in Long Beach Municipal Auditorium.
 The judges somehow accom- plished the job of narrowing the group to 16 semifinalists, but their identity will not be announced until tonight. From there, the field will be cut to five finalists, from whom will come Miss Uni verse.
 Good challenges were made by Belgium, the Philippines, Alaska, Puerto Rico, Sweden, Venezuela, Peru, Denmark and Switzerland.

Sabre Jet Sets New Record Flying One Mile In Time You Can Count to Five

THERMAL, Calif., LR-A F-86 Sabre jet and it's veteran Air Force pilot have blazed to new worlds air speed record of 715.7 miles an hour. That's travelling one mile as you count to five.
 It. Col. William F. Barns, g, sometimes reaching speeds of more than 12 miles a minute in the nine-ton jet interceptor, eclip- sed yesterday the record of 698.5 established only last November over the same three kilmeter Q.863 mile) course by Capt. J. Slade Nash.
 Barns flashed through two com plete contest runs, each consist ing of two trips in both direc- tions along the straightaway course. Each of the eight trips was faster than Nash's record and the best was 721364 when the wind was in the colonels favor.
 Barns broke the record with an average of 713.6 on the first run. He changed planes and came back to re-establish the record a couple of miles per hour higher.
