Interpreting News
by J. M. Roberts A. F. News Analyst

A friend of mine was talking to his wife the other day about their children.
 'TWhy Mom,' he said, Do realize that Boy (now 8 will probably come in some day when he's 18 and announce that he's off for a dinner party in Cairo, but for Us not to wor- gy because he'll be back by mlidnight."
 Such expressions have be- come common in the last 20 years. and even more so since the British produced few of their comet jet-liners, which made amazing performance re- cords, were found to be unsafe, and are now about to stage a comeback.
 TWenty-eight years ago Pan American Airways made its first scheduled flight, 90 miles from Key West flo Havana, in one hour. Today Pan Arneri- can has a flight which makes it from Tokyo to Honolulu, 4,O00 miles, in O12 hours. But that's with the aid of the ''jet stream" a high and fast air current Ov- CT the Pacific. That plane has a true speed of 425 miles an hour, and takes 1212 hours New York to London.
 Now Pan American has or dered 45 jet planes which will fly 30 per cent farther (aboutl 4,000 miles unassisted by the jet streann) at $50 miles an hour They will go into service in| 1858.
 But lthe most significant thing is not the advance in air performance which will be oc- coGnplished in Pan Americans first 31 years. That has become an expected commonplace
 The true significance is two- fold: that these planes and oth- CTS like them are the products of military research and the descendants of military planes and that they will produce an ago of 241nour round trips be- tween any cities in the world And today's jet-hners are only a beginning, as PAA's first 9O- mile-per hour Forkker was o1- ly the beginning of the first airline to girdle the earth from one coast of the United States to the other.
 This contributes to the pol ] itica1 impact already created by the vast ranges and speed of ] the big bornbers.

 BULLETIN

LONDON: The Under }
 writers at Llyod's have an {
 nounced a drastic revision {
 of rain insurance policies 5
 for southeastern Alaska. {
 Under the old policies coverage was provided to compensate insureds for loss
 of revenues and the expense of making new arrange ments because of rain. For instance, if a city planned to hold a festival on October 18th, 17th and 18th, rain in surance could be purchased in adbance and if rain fell on those days the insurance would pay for any loss of attendance, loss of gate re- ceipts and extra expense. Due to the catastrophe { loss experience of the last y year, however, the Under writers have rewritten the.  policy to delete any mention of rain. The word " sun 5 shine" has been substituted for "rain" throughout the 3 policy, The effect of this, s of course, is to create sun { shine insurance. Any com } mittee or civic body plan 5 ming to hold further con-, { ventions or festivals in 5 southeastern Alaska will $ now be able to obtain in- { surance to cover their be- } wilderment and stunned } surprise if the sun appears { during the events.
 5 Premiums for this new $ insurance coverage are } quite low as the Underwrit- 5 CTS feel that there is not { much risk involved under s the terms of the revised $ $policy. 5 Conway Insurance Agency: ~~>>'~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

CHICAGO, Sept. 2 R.-The

$303, 720 of the Greenlease kid
nap-murder ransom money had
been found in Chicago.
The FBI declined immediate
comment.
The Tribune said that after
the discovery more than 30 FBI
agents, who have been seeking
the money for nearly two years,
had been assigned to aid bank
employees In checking $40 and
$40 bills.
A woman clerk in the Federal
Reserve Bank of Chicago dis
covered q $40 bill that was part
of the ransom money, the
Tribune said. After she reported
this, the bank ordered the days
receipts - between 300. 900 and
100000 bills rechecked. Then
two others were found. the story
said.
This would be the biggest
,ingle find in the long search for
the missing money, although
bills have started popping up in
recent weeks. One $40 bill was
found August 4 in Minot, N. Oak,
Two bills were found this week
ut the Federal Reserve Bank OF
st. Louis.
The Tribune said the FBI be-
neves the money now is being
put in circulation and FBI men
repeatedly are checking a theory
that carnival workers have
started to pass the money.
