There has been a progressive decline of Rongerik re sources since the displaced Bikini ans arrived, he added. Dr. Macmillan said that even on Bikini the 166 natives had not been well off and that their transfer to Rongerik had only aggravated the situation. Ujelang Island was selected for the new village because il is a lush productive place, with healthy soil and good fishing.

' One of the Belgrade diplomats involved in the case was stationed at the Chilean capital, Santiago. I The otljer, attached to Marshal Ti , to's diplomatic staff in Argentina, i arrived at Chile a few days ago : reportedly bringing instructions for Communist activities. Shortly aft er that both of them were escorted ' to the Argentine-Chilean frontier and now are inside Argentina. I The Chilean government, ex plaining the ouster order, claims i the diplomats were involved in fomenting industrial strife and di- recting political propaganda aimed j 1 at the United States. ' Doctors On Trail Of Oxygen Intake To Prolong Life ST. LOUIS 1 UP' Better health and longer life for middle-aged people may be achieved by main taining the proper level of oxygen consumption in the body. Physicians, working at St. Louis City Infirmary in co-operation with Washington University, believe old people may be able to ward off the I so-called "old age'' diseases if the proper level is achieved. On the basis of their study of 1.000 persons, the investigators think the ideal oxygen consuming rate occurs during the first ten years of life. The rate then falls until the age of 24 and remains stable until age 45 Then, according to their find ings, is when the trouble begins. They speculate that a dropping rate of oxygen consumption indi cates threat of a degenerative dis ease. When the rate begins to climb again after age 45. the rim-tors be lieve, it may be due to the body's fight against a degenerative ail ment such as cancer or heart dis ease. The gerontologist physicians who study aging processes of the body --. therefore try 10 maintain oxygen consumption at the 24 year age level With special diets and medical care they already have reported 'some progress ".

But cvcryhori.v agrees that for ils climax, the cavorting commercial plane tried to perform an outside loop and, in fact, actually com pleted the lirst half of it. Now an outside loop Is the most difficult and most dangerous ma neuver even for planes specially built for acrobatics It's practically impossible for any kind of a heavy plane 'let alone a commercial plane that is designed for standard lev el ilv mi; and no cul-ups. Captain Charles Sisto. the pinu. can I explain what happened to the plane. Everything had been line since the take-off from Dallas. Texas, on a routine scheduled Might to Los Angeles. Then, all of a sudden over El I'aso. the plane just nosed up into a sleep climb. The automatic pilot really was doing the living al the time, and S.-io made some adjustments to cm n et the climb. But they didn't work. He and Co-l'jlot Mel Logan ! grabbed the manual controls and tried to straighten the plane In stead, it turned into .1 steep dive. S1.-I0 and another pilot. John Heck ! w ho was along to learn four-engine Hvim. were thrown together by Mho centrifugal force. Logan stayed with the controls, lighting franlic j ally. Then the plane tinned under and started living on ils back The i pa.sengers suddenly found tliem-j selves hitting the roof and looking I I up at the floor. Finally. Captain sis- j to and Beck got back at the con- j Irols and helped Logan right the! 'plane and they brought her in for j a safe landing at El I'aso airport. j ' Most ol the passengers suffered j shaking up and bruises, though! none was seriously hurt Hut iwy ' ' got an unwanted thrill. j Russian girl passenger, Miss j Kieinheid Wallenstein, of Moscow. put il this way: "My legs went up stairs My head went downstairs." Today, the Wayward plane is chastened and ground-locked -standing silently on a runway at the El I'aso airport. And civil aero nautics authority officials are plan ning an inspection to see if ihey can find out what caused the sud- den attack of spring capers in Uc- j tober What theflkw National Guard means to you... (A Mcssagc'fromthe President of the United States WE owe our existence as a nation to the tradition of service of our citizens. It was an army of citizen soldiers which George Washington led to victory in the American Revolution. At the end of that war, the first Congress asked General Washington to give his views on what the military policy of the new nation should be. This was his answer: . . every citizen who enjoys the protection of a free government, owes not only a proportion of his property but even of his per sonal services to the defense of it." Today the new National Guard gives every man an opportunity to give that personal service to his country and at the same time to advance himself. In National Guard units all over the country thou sands of veterans and other ambitious young men are finding the opportunity to study and learn the things that help them advance in their civilian jobs. They are finding the fellowship that is part and parcel of America. They are participating in a sports and recreation program that keeps them fit. And they arc receiving the training that helps keep America strong. Because of the National Guard's impot tancc to our national defense I have pro claimed September 16th as National Guard Day and have directed that a nationwide recruiting campaign be con- ducted to fill its ranks. ( You'll find the few hours each week that you spend with your local Koiional Guard unit pleasant end profitable. Pay is based on new Army pay scale. Veterans can obtain the same rank held upon discharge. And now young men 17 years old may join the National Guard. For complete information about the National Guard in your commu nity, contact officers of that unit or write tlu Adjutant General of your state. ' HELPKEEP THE PEACE!
