Two Russian MICS shot
down a United States Patrol
bomber in the Sea of Japan;
fortunately nine men escaped
with their lives but one was
lost.
The U. S. lodged a vigorous
protest with the Soviets but,
as usual, they claimed that
the bomber was over Soviet
territory and attacked the 2
MICS first.
The u. S. Commander Of
the plane said that they were
so far from Soviet territory
not even with binoculars was
it possible to sight it..
The u. S. called the attack
wanton and unprovoked.
The crew said that the Rus
sian planes attacked the Anne
rican on Saturday afternoon
without warning. They passed
over the tail of the plane and
shot it up. ,

BALTIMORE, Aug. s1.-All
State medical examiners have
been directed to check the "alco-
hol level" of every person killed
in motor vehicle accident.
The directive was issued today
by the Maryland Post Mortem
Examiners Commission.
A committee of the Maryland
Enforcement Officers organiza-
ton also announced it will seek
passage of a law making it pos
sible to determine whether driv-
erS in all accidents are under
the influence of alcohol"
The committee was formed to
promote passage of a law per-
hitting use of chemical tests on
drivers. The Legislature has
refused in the past to approve
such a law.

Examiners Commission stated
that last year lover 40 per cent
OF the vehicular deaths investi-
gated by the medical examiners
involved the excessive use of
alcohol"
