Mammoth Spring
Storm Besieges
Nations Midwest
(By The Associated Press)

A mammoth spring storm ragged
across the heart of the nation
Saturday, hurting snow and freez-
ing rain on portions of the flood
besieged Midwest and torrential
rains as far south as western
Florida
The new onslaught of precipi-
tation meant more misery for
weary areas. Already $4,000 per-
sons were homeless from the sud-
den spring thaw topped by fresh
rains.
The storm dropped SHOWS up to
a foot deep in areas of South Da-
kota and 10 inches sin Nebraska
Friday, and pushed into the Mis-
sissippi Valley early Saturday.
Shows whipped by winds up to so
miles per hour, disrupted traf-
fic and snapped power lines.
Swollen rivers spilled over banks,
breeched levees, flooded farm
lands and ate away at major
highways and railroad tracks.
The death toll stood at 10, from
Nebraska to New York.
Thunderstorms struck the Gulf
states. In six-hour period, one
Florida city reported 2.3 inches of
rain. Hail fell in New Orleans.
About 1000 persons fled their
homes in the Des Moines area
when the Des Moines River, fed
by swollen tributaries, surged
into the low areas surrounding
the state capitol. Levees checked
the debris filled flood waters
from reaching the center of town.

MISSION:
Civil Air Patrol Cadet Program

SAVAA xA4A oAASA SoSS4 A09A oAAA
In our earlier articles, the OBJ
jectives of the Civil Air Patrol
Cadet program were outlined, to-
gether with the many advantages
available to the young people of
our community, through active
participation.
AS indicated in those articles,
the success of the program is di-
rectly proportional to the in
terest and active participation of
the adults of this community. The
present capabilities of the Nome
Squadron is limited indeed. The
local Squadron presently has but
II members, with three additional
local members who are a part of
the Wing Headquarters staff.
From the Squadron adult strength
of IL, two only are active in the
Cadet program. Consequently, the
capabilities of the Squadron to
meet the detectives Of the Cadets
are limited. There is a crying
need for adults, capable and in
terested in working with this
groups. The limits of the pro-
gram are established only by the
interest, initiative and Imagination
of the adults.

Eisenhower Will Stop AT
ElmendOrf ALB EnrOute
To Paris Summit Meeting

ANCHORAGE, Up = The White
House said last week a report that
President Eisenhower plans a
brief visit to Alaska soon was in
correct.
However, Presidential Press
Secretary James c. Hagery did
not deny outright that Eisenhower
will make a stop in Alaska this
spring.
Radio Station KENI said it had
reliable information Eisenhower
would make an overnight stop at
Elmendorf Air Force Base, An
chorage, en- route to Paris for
the summit meeting early next
month.
KENI's news director, Ty Clark,
said he had learned the Air Force
had been given instructions to be-
gin planning for an Eisenhower
stopover at Elmendorf, including
orders to redecodate the guest
quarters at the field.
Earlier this year, Sen. Bob Bart
lett issued a formal invitation to
the President to stop in Alaska
on his way back from the summit
meeting.

ny there-but has no plans at all
beyond supposedly balancing the
budget"
Everyone here knows the waste
in government is tremendous. Yet
the Eisenhower approach would be
more impressive If there was any
thing more than talk about closing
up the real sources Of waste.
What are they? Foremost, are
inefficiency and duplication in the
Pentagon (as a military man Ike
should have known better than
anyone now to handle this). Then
comes the tremendous interest
rates the government pays on its
borrowing (the bankers bonan-
"a, as it has been called) Next
there are the tax 'loopholes'' and
special privileges such as the oil
uepISlOH dlIO"dlCC.
Does Eisenhower propose doing
anything about them? Not at all.
The only Tightening up comes in
the fields Of education, housing,
eradication of diseases, and pollu-
ton Of our rivers and the air.
Unlike Joseph Alsop 1 do not
give the republic just "a hours to
survive. We lived through Collidge
and Hoover; If there is no war we'll
survive the Age Of Eisenhower,
too.
But think 1t needs recording
that the Administration is running
down, petering out. Last year the
President appointed a distinguished
Committee on National Goals. But
he makes no reference to national
goals" in his State Of the Union
message. Two years ago he ap-
pointed a distinguished Civil Rights
Commission. But he downgrades
civil rights and ignores its recon-
mendations.
What we are witnessing now is
the year Of The Big Fizzle. Too
bad the election isn't tomorrow.
