I FLYING STRAIGHT UP A small, turbine-driven aircraft that can take off straight up and then fly horizontally, was patented re- cently in Washington. The engines, supposedly, are gas turbines that are placed in the tail, é , The pilot steers partly by moving the plane's tail and oener in the tips of swept-back wings are air-compressors from which streams of air can be directed straight down to lift the eraft or back through the wings and out through the tail to give forward thrust. Rights of the patent have been assigned to Lockheed Aireraft Corporation, of Burbank, California, The estimated cruising speed of the newly-patented craft is 8300 miles an hour at 5,000 feet, and the range is estimated at 450 miles. The craft can, reportedly, glide safely to a landing in ease of engine failure, Drawings of the vertical-rising aircraft indicate that it is a completely new approach to air transportation in the United States. Whether or not this particular craft is put into production by Lockheed, or any other company, indications seem to point to production of some such craft in the near future. The goal of aviation enthusiasts“has long been to produce a passenger craft which rose straight up. ‘ The advantages of such a craft are obvious, especial- ly in large cities, where landing space is the major prob- lem facing prospective buyers, The disadvantages of heli- ropters, so far, has been that they require great skill to operate and attained comparatively little forward speed. The small turbine-driven aircraft patented this month, if practical and successful, will meet both these objections, providing adequate speeds and simplicity of design. Figures show that Americans are buying more insur. ance today than ever before, which fact reflects a higher living and educational standard.

When it's a government man speaking, the goals are frequently considered as putting a strain en qur natural resources. When it’s an industry man speak- ing, the emphasis is usually on expanding facilities and industry’s record of finding new reserves and The dispute is pepped up just now by the Paley Report. William bia Broadcasting Ssystem, headed the President's Material Policy Commission. Its report on possible future shortages in the U. S. has been questioned by many industri- al leaders. In the case of lead, Andrew Fletcher, president of St, Joseph Lead Co., questioned the Paley Report forecast. Fletcher told the American Mining Congress meet- ing in Denver that the Paley fore- cast of a 900,000-ton deficit a year by 1975 was a full 700,000 tons too high.

The steel industry pushes toward its expansion goals he gove: ment wants steel capacity to rez 120 million tons a y start of 1954. Many in t question if that much h r by the industry will be needed or can be used, but facili- ties are expanding fast. Oil expansion plans were set back by the steel strike. But the industry points to its record of always finding more oil each year than the steadily rising demand uses up. The Petroleum Administration for Defense predicts today that by 1955 the use of natural for residential heating will be 57 per cent over last year's level. The gas industry says it can find the needed supply.
