Community Auditorium, AN AIR SPEED LIMIT The Chief Pilots’ Committee of the Air Transport As- sogiation, an organization of scheduled airlines, has recom- mended that aircraft be required to conform to a speed limit in areas of terminals and over airports and adjacent areas. The speed limit is proposed as a safety measure to prevent air collisions. ‘An official of the Association recently announced that the Association’s committee had recommended the speed limits to the Civil Aeronautics Administration in Washington. The committee recommended that aircraft cruise at 180 miles an hour, or at lesser speeds, in outskirt areas of terminals. A limit of 150 miles an hour over air- Ports and adjacent areas was #uggested. While the country has as yet witnessed few mid-air collisions of large passenger airliners, the air lanes are rapidly becoming more and more congested and it is only a matter of time before such tragedies will occur, unless proper preventive précautions are taken in time. The pro- posal for air speed limits, though sounding perhaps pre- mature to some, are constructive proposals which will save the lives of air passengers in the future if followed as they should be.

The other day we named “Drowning” as one of the Four Horsemen who bring tragedy to us in civilian life. Key West has a remarkably clean record oh this score in view of the fact that we have so much water around us. However, now that warm weather is approaching, hundreds of people will lose their lives on various all government employes. The se- curity program covered only those with big secrets, like the Stat and Defense Departments and the Atomic Energy Commission. The new Eisenhower move tele- scopes the loyalty and security programs into one. It covers all government employes, no matter where they work, on loyalty and security. In doing this the administration has made some changes in the way people in both groups are to get rid of people it decides can’t be trusted to werk for the gov- «roment. The best way to understand the new programa is to compare it with the old. The old loyalty program: A man of questionable loyalty was given a hearing by a board made up of officials from his own agency. If it recommended he be fired, the head of the agency or department could do so. Then the man could appeal to the Loyalty Review Board, men specially ap- pointed by the President. If the board found the man loyal, he kept his job. At these hearings the accused man was entitled to counsel and to get a copy of the, charges against him, in writing. There wasn’t one case in 1,000 where this man was told who his accus- ers were. The government didn't have to tell him. So he got no | chance to cross-examine witnesses against him. The Eisenhower loyalty program: The Loyalty Review Board goes out of existence in seven months, long enough to clear up pending business. It can’t take on new or department now has the last word. A man he fired on loyalty grounds stays fired, with no ap- peal. He gets a hearing before a eases. Thus the head of an agency } |Ican go |.

Traizos, al hablar de esta farola: struggle resulting from fright has brought death to the person involved and often, even to his would-be rescuer. : Saying: ‘Keep calm” is sort of like the mouse advising: “Put a bell on the cat”. It is a fine idea Calmness can be achieved by. several methods. There is the met- of the God-believer whose Faith has become so sincere that he is able to turn any and all pro- blems over to a Power greater than himself. Throughout the ages, sublime examples of this type of calmness have been illustrated in the lives of peopie faced by terri- ble danger or suffering. Tortured Christians and persecuted Jews are readily thought of when speak- ing of such calmness but any walk of life or class of men can show | proof of the efficacy of Faith. Ed- die Rickenbacker, one of the fore- most aviation experts of today, provides an excellent case history on the subject. There is another way of facing emergencies in a calm manner -- “En la comparsa de neuestra! one of personal detachment.
