HOW SAFE IS FLYING?
Although aircraft accidents in Alaska and else
where have increased alarmingly in the past sixty
days, we feel that a word in defense of flying is in
order.
Accidents increase — but so does thp number of
passenger-miles flown. And we are pleased to report
that, despite the unhappy news reports, flying is
actually becoming safer. The fatality incidence de
creases with every passenger mile flown, according to
rclable statistics.
That wc do not lose faith in flying, we offer for
your careful study a recent editorial from the DES
ERET NEWS:
“HOW SAFE IS FLYING? ACTURIAL
STUDIES TELL
"The brilliant modern day safety record of the
airplane once again is being victimized by head
lines.
"Last week a giant airliner with 50 persons aboard
crashed in northern Colorado, killing every passenger
and crew member. Eight days earlier a liner fell in
the dark jungles of west Africa with 39 persons
aboard. And here in the Mountain West we have
learned of several crashes involving military planes
or light private aircraft.
"Lengthy and dramatic accounts of these tragic
smashups tend to shatter the public's confidence in
air travel. However the press and radio cannot be
begrudged their ‘play’ of these accidents. They are
truly big stories.
"But they distort the facts of general air safety.
“Consider these statistics released by reliable
aeronautics authorities: ‘In order for a person to
become a “statistical” fatality, he must fly eight
hours a day, five days a week, at 200 miles per hour
for 194 years.
“ 'Only then does the law of averages catch up
with him.’
“ ‘A new all-time record for air safety was set in
1950 for regularly scheduled domestic and overseas
airliners. The death rate was only 1.1 per million
passenger miles flown.’
; “The public fails to consider the vast extent of
flying today. A recent survey disclosed that more
people are commuting between Los Angeles and San
Francisco by airplane than by any other means of
transportation—including the private auto. The Mili
tary Air Transport Service maintained fine safety
records in spite of hazardous conditions during the
Berlin Airlift and Pacific Airlift.
"The public also often fails to realize, in regard
to light plane crashes, that in 90 per cent of the cases
the pilot is to blame, not the aircraft. Instead of
asking, ‘What happened?’ a person should ask, ‘What
was the pilot doing?’
“ You are a* safe in an airplane as you are at
home in bed,’ the National Insurance Underwriters
of St. Louis, leaders in aviation insurance distribu
tion, assure us as a result of actuarial studies.
“Flying is safe. As safe, that is, as any other
human activity.”
Treasure in Those Hills
(Seattle Times)
Washington has had gold booms in its early years.
Deserted mining towns are mute witnesses of these
eras.. But it will be ne.ws. to many that the state.'a
1950 gold production, 92,117 fine ounces, surpassed
all previous annual records, according to the United
States Bureau of Mines.
Of more practical importance, however, is the
fact that lead and zinc production, respectively 10,
334 and 14,807 tons, also set new highs. With copper
and silver production added, the value of the five
metals, $12,652,302. rises to a new peak.
Gone, apparently, are the days when a prospector
might reasonably expect to pan out his fortune in a
stream-bed. Only 39 ounces of placer gold were re
ported last year. The government figures show two
tons of ore handled for each ounce of gold recovered.
Yet hope never dies — and a good thing, too.
One suspects that the old-time prospectors for gold,
or their sons, are out in the hills, with Geiger counters
as part of their equipment. There’s still gold in them
thar hills — and perhaps treasure still more valuable
in the world of today.
If Mr. Truman decides not to run for the presi
dency he will fool a lot of people.
The Washington
Merry-Go-Round
i (Continued from Page One)
is to climb, sometimes two and
three thousand feet almost straight
up, find the enemy, and either
kill him or drive him off. There are
no paths or footholds so you usu
ally are forced to walk the ridge
lines. That puts you right in the
enemy sights. It’s just a matter of
when he decides to open up.
It seems to me that the fighting
in Korea is much like the island
warfare in the Pacific. Here each
hill is an island fortress. Artillery
and air solten them up, and then
the infantry must go it alone.
Mountains and weather . . . En
emies which have proved as elec
tive against the U. N. forces as
the Reds themselves. Last winter
it was cold and snow. You've heard
about that. So far this summer
the temperature has averaged in
the humid eighties. When it isn’t
hot, it's raining. . . steady down
pours for two and three days
straight.
It’s a strange war here in Ko
rea. It’s a strange soldier we fight.
Reports from intelligence speak of
such things as “the Chinese may
be waiting for a full moon" or "ex
pect an attack if we get three
straight days of rain.” The Chin
ese are superstitious. They frighten
easily and they fight fanatically.
Every soldier dreads nightfall.
The Reds love to infiltrate at
night and launch wild whistle
blowing banzai attacks. The enemy
uses his artillery most at night.
Unlike most wars there are no
clear cut front lines in Korea. The
enemy can be any place at any
time.
A combat inlantryman doesn’t
have much time to think about
the grand philosophy of war. But
the American soldier is no mach
ine. He walks hand-in-hand with
death. No matter how brave or
patriotic or religious he might be
he can’t forget that each minute
could well be his last.
I remember the first man I saw
killed. We had been joking about
how easy we had it. Then the ar
tillery came in. He was dead. The
same shell was close enough to
have gotten me but it didn’t. In
cidents like these encourage the
foxhole faith you read about in
civilian life.
When you’re a part of a war the
casualty list isn’t just a row of
numbers. Every figure is a man
who wanted to live and do some
thing with his life just as you do.
The next digit could be you.
Then there's the matter of her
oes. Before I entered combat I
thought heroism was a rare and
individual thing. Long ago that
was true. But today any man who
performs his duties well under
fire is a hero for my money. A
knight of old may have single
handedly slain dragons but a
modern soldier carnet do hand-to
hand battle with slffapnel.
At least one good thing comes
of war. . . teamwork. I don’t mean
the military teamwork of infantry,
artillery, air, etc. Even more sig
nificant is the comradeship of men
in battle. In my own regiment
(17th infantry) racial or religious
prejudice is unheard of. A man
scon learns to appraise the guy be
side him by his courage under fire.
That's where men are made.
I sometimes wonder if war isn't
more of a personal fight than it
seems. A man seldom has time to
consider world ideals. It usually
narrows down to kill or be killed.
There is no pretense among men
in battle. The will to live tears
away the protective veil we some
times wear in civilization. Every
one is afraid at times. But most
men fight fear as they fight the
| enemy.
Korea today is not only a dead
ly place but also a lonely one.
There are no cities, as we know
them, in the battle zone. Only
hills and wilderness. The infantry
would thrill to see such simple
i things as telephone poles, paved
streets, brick buildings and stores.
Many men now in the front
1 lines were only recently removed
from civilian life by the draft.
They dream about getting back to
the work they love. They worry
about the long delay In their cho
sen careers. They wonder how it
will affect their future.
Soldiers, as always, have their
gripes. Rotation is wonderful, but
sometimes it seems awfully slow
in coming around. When they see
stateside papers with Korean news
mentioned briefly on page 3 they
wonder if the people back home
know or care why this war is being
fought.
The men here know why they’re
fighting. I was amazed when I
first arrived in Korea at the dif
ference in attitude about the war.
Sure you hear "why not give them
the place; it isn’t fit to live in any
way." But when you talk seriously
with these same men, most of them
will admit they were only letting
off steam. i
After the last big Allied offen
sive we discovered we can defeat
the Communists no matter how
many men they have. We threw
back everything the Reds had to
offer and we had them running
when the cease-fire talks opened.
We, as no one else, pray for peace.
But if it doesn’t come, we can
still whip them.
One thing is certain. Eveiy man
here has learned the horror and
waste of war. We’re happy it's I
happening to us instead of those'
we love. Our only hope is, that in j
waging this isolated war, we have
proved to our potential enemies1
that it will not pay to test our |
strength in our own backyard.

Rapid Progress
Believed Made on
Greenland Bases
WASHINGTON, Sept. 8 — UP) —
Rapid progress is believed to have
been made this summer on build
ing and enlarging air bases on
Greenland, midway between the
northeastern United States and
the Murmansk region of Russia.
The Defense Department an
nounced in June that Army and
Air Force engineers, with civilian
workers, had left for the big island
by arrangement with Denmark,
which administers Greenland.
Engineers say any construction
work in Greenland must be con
ducted rapidly because of the very
short summer.
Alaska Railroad
Rales Upper! 19%
WASHINGTON. Sept. 8 — —
| A ten per cent increase in Alaska's
t railroad freight rates has been
| authorized by the Interior Depart
1 ment.
1 It will be the first such increase
by the government-owned Alaska
j railroad in 14 years, Secretary of
i ihe Interior Oscar Chapman said
! in his announcement. Railroads in
' the states have increased their
freight rates about 65 per cent in
that time, he added.
Chapman said the increase is
necessary because of higher op
erating costs, including a $1,300,000
wage increase.

Q. When a man is wearing a soft felt hat, is it really necessary to
tip this to a woman by removing it from the head — or isn’t merely
touching the brim all right?
A. A man .who only touches the brim of his hat is just "going
through the motions” of courtesy. To be correct, he should take his
hat by the crown, instead of the brim, lift the hat slightly from his
head, and then replace it.
Q. What should the bridegroom and best man do with their gloves
while the ceremony is talcing place?
A. The bridegroom removes his right glove and holds it in his left
hand. The best man does not remove his gloves.
Q. Is it necessary that a guest unfold a napkin entirely when plac
ing it on the lap?
A. No; half unfolded is sufficient.
