surplus units.
Units Rearranged
When it was delivered, the
Army also was not completely
satisfied with its vertical ar
rangement, which made neces-
sary a specially constructed tent
20-feet tall to protect the deli
cate apparatus from the weather.
Army officials also disliked the
necessity of using an auto
wrecking crane to get the top
most unit weighing $500 pounds
into place.
Mr.. Garay, a product of the
Army's radar school at Fort
Bliss, Tex. told the Guards
commander, Maj. Gen William
Abendroth. he thought he could
lick the problem. The general
ordered one of the units and
told his radar expert to 60
ahead.
Using a jack-of -all-trades
engineering technique, Mr..
Garay reassembled the coinpli-
Gated machine on a horizontal
line and placed it in a 21a-ton
Army truck.
Device Has Wide Range
With his antipsy one dog, Mr..
Garay can reach out 180 miles
at sea to pick up targets. He ex-
planned that his device is used as
an early warning system because
its range is about one-third
greater than the $325 900 M-33

FORT MILES, Del, July A.
: The Pentagon has its eye on
District National Guardsman
John Garay and his antipsy one
dog.
The object with the gobbledy-
COOK name isn't an animal, it's
q radar device the like of which
can't be found elsewhere.
Mr.. Garay. who lives at 1910 q
street Sc, designed it himself.
He said the job required three
months hard work at the
! Guards maintenance shop at
Camp Simms. Fifteenth place
and Alabama avenue Sc.
What he had when he finished
was the only mobile long range
Navy-type radar unit among the
land forces.
His brain child, being tested
here as the District Guard holds
its annual summer maneuvers,
is working like a charm.
g Pentagon Asks Blueprint
i In fact. 1t is operating so ef-
ficiently the Pentagon has asked
Mr.. Garay for his blueprint.
Puerto Rican defense officials
have also put in bid for his
version of the device.
Mr.. Garay. a World War Il
veteran and full-time Guard
civilian employe, said he was SO
pleased with the way "Garay's
j pet" is functioning he is going
$ to build another. He said he
will tackle the second antipsy
one dog as soon as the Guard
! completes its maneuvers here on
the Delaware sand dunes.
i The hybrid machine, mounted
IN an Army truck, was originally
designed for the United States
Navy. Due to space limitations
aboard ship the five units Of the
machine were constructed in a
vertical line, making it 20 feet
tall. It weighs about 1900
pounds.

The Board of Directors of the Capital Transit Co.
today issued formal statement outlining its position
the transit strike In introductory statement,
the board said 1t issued the statement "ih response
to public request"
The statement follotOs:
'Prior to and during the present emergency, the
members Of the Board of Directors including public
representatives of Capital Transit have been fully aware
and cognzant of all the facts and subsequent policy
csions in connection with the strike.
THE board sees no relief from the present situation
until revenues to meet union demands made available
through increased fares tax relief or BOTH
"The board members and the management of Capital
Transit viii continue to exert every effort to find seu
on which will bring about successful conclusion to the
controversy and restore streetcar and bus service
THE prospect Of strike has been of concern to the
Board OF Directors for period of six months The board
had appointed special committees and authorized off,
GERS OF the company to explore of obtaining
revenue to meet and avoid the present situation
These explorations and their result outlined in
detail in Mr. Broadwater letter of 20 in reply to
the request of Senator Neely.
"The Board of Directors deplore the present strike
and its inconvenience TO individuals and economic loss
to the community After consideration of the and
the further meetings and discussions with the Commits
soners on July the decision to stand firm under present
conditions is deemed to be the only alternative the
bers Of the board have they to fill their RESPONSE

Mr.. Broadwater said it was
not unusual for the empire
building flnancier to use an alias
at hotels. Not long ago the FBI
had made contact. with Mr..
Wolfson in regard to "the per-
sonal safety of Mr.. Wolfson and
his family" Mr.. Broadwater
added.
Mr.. Wolfson'S shot at the PUG
was in line with the company's
contention that the rate-making
body has been slow about grant,
ing fare increases which the
company claims it needs in order
Ito make any kind of strike-set-
Element offer to the 5000 AFL
Transit Union members.
Mcnamara Asks Record
AS today's hearing opened,
Senator Morse was asked by
Senator Mcnamara to make a
record Of the events leading up
to the Wolfson subpoenas and
what has occurred since.
This included the decision to
issue the first subpoenas last
Saturday, the subsequent un-
availing effort to find Mr.. Wolf
son for service on the West
Coast and the exchange Of
kilograms.
The strike truce proposal was
put out by Chairman Nicely and
Senator Morse of the Senate

failed to stimulate any down.
