File will billow out immediate
ly after the bomb hits the target,
and within seconds, searing
flames, burning at temperatures
from 1,500 to 3.000 degrees, will
cnevelop the target area
Spectators m the grandstand
beside the airfield will be able
to view the awesome effects of
the bomb without being in any
danger whatsoever Every precau
tion has been taken to assure the
utmost safety for all those attend
ing the show.
Primarily, the napalm bomb is
used as a close air support wea
pon. clearing enemy troop con
centrations from the patli of the
advancing infantrymen.
The bomb has been found effec
tive against peisonncl m i .it
trenches, pi 1 i boxes, caves, dug
outs and foxholes Its victims are
usually killed in positions they
are in when they arc hit. Som<
times they are suffocated with
out even being burned.
Armored equipment presents
no major problem to napalm.
When dropped near a tank, na
palm decommissions the tank and
fry.s all of its occupants
Wooden piers, house, warehous
es, small surface craft, ammuni
tion dumps, truck convoys, jn
flamable stores and structures are
tailor-made for napalm.
Airmen and ground troops have
called it then most effective wea
pon in Korea Recent evidence in
dicates that tin Reds hate and
fear the napalm "fin used by
the UN troops
The napalm will be just one of
the features of the day-long show
Static displavs have been set upj

racks will be open for inspection

Need Honeybees
In Defense Plan
a:
mer.. have known for years
that honeybees were useful not
onl> as gatherers of honey hut al
so as pollinators of seed, fruit, and
fiber crops Now Uncle Sam has
discovered that bees are also vi
tal to the defense effort.
Beeswax, a by-product of hon
es. is needed for coating war mu
nitions and for the manufacture
of airplanes. Although the wax
is m short supply, no satisfactory
substitute for it is known.
W A Stephen, extension bee
keeping specialist at State College,
explains that bees make their
comb out of beeswax. After they
gorge themselves with honey,
their wax glands secrete a liquid j
it comes m
This matcr
that hardens when
contact with the air
• a! is u■ eil b> the bees as capping
for cells of honey and for the cells
where the young bees are hatch
ed. as well as for the combs which
hold the honey and serve as cra
dles for the young bees.
Stephen urges beekeepers to
save all of their precious bees
wax and sell it to dealers. The |
price is higher now than ever be- j
fore. I
Small amounts of beesfax can
be melted down by heating in hot
water It should not be allowed
to boil When it cools a cake of
solid wax will be floating on top
of the water.
Km information on how to han
dle old combs and large amounts
of wax. farmers should write the
Extension Beekeeper, State Col
lege Station, Raleigh, and ask for
Information Sheet No. I) entitled
"Salvaging Beeswax.”
