Americans, bent on making
the most of summers last holi-
day, took to the highways this
Labor Day week end, and the
toll in deaths began with A re-
ported killed up to noon today
The number of traffic fatal
ities appeared modest as VOL
ume of cars on the move
mounted.
The National Safety Council
forecast that it might be the
last holiday for 400 persons
That's how many the NSC esti-
mated will be killed in highway
accidents in the 78-hour perioc
from 6 pm. local time Friday
until midnight Monday.
The worst Labor Day in his
tory for motorists was in 1851
when 46l persons lost theil
lives in traffic miShapS.
Should 400 persons die in
traffic over the current holiday
the toll would exceed those Of
the 1858 Memorial Day anc
July Fourth week ends.
The Memorial Day highway
toll was 37l and it was $40 wher
the Independence Day weeE
end was over.

U. 5. Sending
JET Squadron
lowest Pacific
rs AT Fighters
Bolster Strength
In China Threat
BY L. EDGAR PRINA
Star stan Writer

The Pentagon disclosed today
that the Air Force is sending a
squadron of rs jet fighters and
a unit of cargo aircraft to boil
ster American strength in the
war-threatened Western Pacific.
1t was the first announce
ment of any Air Force moves
in relation to the explosive
situation brought on by Chi
nese Communist artillery and
air attacks against the Ma
tionalist-held offshore islands
of Quemoy and Matsu.
The Air Force refused to
identify the type of jet fighter
being sent to the Western Pa
cific. Built is known that SUI
personic FLOODS, F-86s and
F-84Fs already are in the Pa
cific.
The last general statement
of Air Force strength in the
Pacific was made last year. At
that time the Pentagon said
IA wings of fighters, light
bombers, bomberS and support
aircraft were deployed in the
area. This means a total OF
about 1000 planes.
The sending of the addi-
tional fighter squadron, which
may be the beginning OF a
series of Air Force deployments
to the Western Pacific, follows
announcements by the Navy
of the beef1ng up of its 7th
Fleet in the Formosa Strait.
The Navy first detached the
aircraft carrier Essex from the
9th Fleet and sent her through
the Suez Canal to join the
Western Pacific forces. Then
1T disclosed laCe lnurSoay CIldG
the 45.000-ton carrier Midway
had left Pearl Harbor and 7th
Fleet duty.
The assignment of these
ships will bring to a total OF
six the number of carriers the
Navy will have deployed in or
near the Formosa Strait.
This concentration of Naval
air striking power is the great
est in history. Virtually OF all
of the 500 or more aircraft
aboard the carriers are fast
flying Jets capable of carrying
nuclear weapons.
In addition to the carriers
there are 40 deStroyers, three
heavy cruisers, four submarines
and 20 amphibious and sup
port craft in the 7th Fleet.
