the actual collision: ..
Tremendous Noise"
The TWA plane went down
in flames on the Army's Miller
Field. Staten Island. while the
Jet winged 10 miles to the
northeast before crashing into
a Brooklyn neighborhood.
One eyewitness. Paul Kleinau,
q Staten Island florist, testi-
fed he saw the jet streak
through an overcast sky and
strike the TWA craft with q
tremendous noise" The rear
Of the TWA plane. he said,
fell of and crashed at once,
but the front engine-wing por-
ton circled twice before spiral
ing down on Miller Field.
II can shut my eyes still
and see those four engines
going around and around in q
circle" Mr.. Kleipau said.
Another witness, Sergt. Glenn
F. Logsdon. on duty at Miller
Fields control tower, testified
there was definitely q solid
overcast" at the time Of the
crash. When he heard the
sound of a crash, he said, he
looked up and saw q fireball
inside the overcast" but could
not see the planes because Of
the murky skies.
Pieces Came Down
Subsequently, Sergt. Logsdon
said. pieces of the planes began
to fall, with the main section
Of the TWA plane coming down
In a fiat spin.
Lillian Esbensen, a Staten
Island housewife, said she saw
the planes collide with "a great,
crunching sound" The TWA
plane rolled over, she said, and
went down in flames while the
Jet lurched away from the area.
CAB Meteorologist Alan
Brunstein testified that most
pilots said there was a solid
overcast from about 1900 feet
to 10000 at approximately
1890 am.
At the time of the collision
the two planes were flying at
an altitude somewhere in the
neighborhood Of 5000 feet.

NEW YORK. Jan. S (AP).-
A Civil Aeronautics Board in
vestigator said today that
times recorded for radio con-
versations with two airliners
shortly before they collided
here December Is are believed
to be within one or two seconds
OF absolute accuracy.
The investigator. Joseph C.
Zacko, headed a team of exs
perts which studied tape re-
cordings made Of ast-minute
radio transmissions between
the planes and aircraft con-
trollers on the ground.
The exact times Of the trans
missions are important in help
ing determine exactly where
the aircraft were shortly before
they collided over Staten
Island. costing the lives Of 1913
persons aboard them and six
others on the ground.
The accident. involving a
United Airlines DC-8 jet and a
Trans World Airlines SUPER
Constellation. was the worst in
aviation history.
Considered Accurate
Mr.. Zacko testified at an in
CURRY being conducted by the
Civil Aeronautics Board at the
st. George Hotel in Brooklyn.
He was asked If the times
specified for the conversations
as recorded on the tapes were
considered the actual times or
II they could have been in
accurate as much as 80 to IS
seconds.
Mr.. Zacko replied that ex-
.perts generally agreed they
were accurate to one or two
seconds"
He added. however, I'VE as
sumo the tapes are the original
ones and have not been altered
in any way, and the correlated
times on the tapes were not
altered"
The tapes now show that
the United Plane radioed at
10:33.28 am. that it was ap-

spread use Of military person.
mel in civil service jobs.
The AFGE unit assailed what
It termed military manpowel
featherbeddi a practices
which it contended was adding
billions Of dollars a year to de.
tense costs. It has also re.
suited in jeopardizing the de.
fense program and in causing
wholesale dismissals, forced re-
tirements, demotions, disloca.
tions and transfers of many
thousands Of experienced and
highly capable civilian en-
ployes. the AFGE group de-
clared.
In . letter to the committees
Of Congress concerned with
military operations and with
civilian personnel matters, the
AFGE lodge declared that the
use Of military personnel in
civilian jobs was costing the
American taxpayer billions OF
dollars because Of the fact that
1t costs much more to maintain
military personnel than it does
civilians.
American taxpayers are
now paying double and triple
manpower costs in the Defense
Department to employ uni
formed military personnel as
artists. statisticians, bookkeep-
ers, accountants, plumbers, car
penters, printers, auditors,
budget analysts. etc." the
AFGE lodge asserted.
Commissioned officers or
high-rank enlisted men often
spend their entire careers in
civil service jobs" the lodge
declared. They then retire in
20 years and are rehired. often
in the same civil service job, at
dual compensation cost to the
American taxpayer. We feel
that this situation is one Of the
primary reasons for the present
swollen $40 billion defense
budget"
The AFGE unit charged that
this practice Of assigning mill
tary officers to civil service jobs
also exists In the Federal Avia-
tion Agency, Atomic Energy
Commission and the National
Aeronautics and Space Agency.
Congress was told by the
AF0E that the Pentagon is
overstaffed with thousands Of
military personnel-both ON
GERS and enlisted men-now
filling civil service jobs" The
employe group said. This
situation is not only costly, but
dangerously misleading In
terms Of defense readiness and
combat capability. Unless the
present trend Is reversed, q
uniformed bureaucracy will
soon replace the American civil
service system" "a.
The AFGE unit added. "Civil
Service employees are the best
msnpower bargain the Ameri-
can taxpayer ever had. They
know their Jobs; they support
their own dependents; pay
their own retirement; medical
care: recreation facilities. in
ciuding swimming pools: night
clubs. movies and golf courses.
They work a 40-hour week;
contribute 6ls per cent Of
salary to their retirement fund;
retire In 80 years (uot 90
and pay Federal income tax
on their annuities) and then
are not eligible for dual COM
pensation from the Federal
Government. For these rea-
sons we propose that defense
manpower policies be COM
pletely re-examined. Military
