British Laborites
Approve Call to
Rearm Germany
SCARBOROUGH, England, LB
—Britain’s Labor Party Tuesday
approved Clement Attlee’s call for
German rearmament— but by
the tiny margin of only 248,000
votes out of 6,292,000 cast at the
annual party conference here.
The vote backing continued ef
forts to enlist West German troops
in Western defense was 3,270,000
to 3,022,000.
The delegates by a similar slim
majority then defeated a motion
backed by left wing Laborite
leader Aneurin Bevan calling for
an absolute ban on German re
armament. The vote on this reso
lution was 2,910,000 to 3,281,000.
In the debate before the vote,
the 71-ye;jr-old former Prime
Minister had staked his prestige
as party leader on a declaration
that opposition to West German
rearmament would be a “sterile
and negative” course.

Air Force Researchers
Look To Addition Of
Wings To Helicopters
WASHINGTON, (41 — An Air
Force general says “some promis
ing development work” is under
way in providing helicopters with
wings.
Brig. Gen. Marvin Dernier of
Baltimore told an American Heli
copter Society meeting last night
that improved performance may
result from reducing the load on
a helicopter rotor, in forward
flight, by means of wings.
“It may well be that develop
ment of future helicopters with
higher speed capabilities will em
ploy such a configuration,” he
said.
The general told an audience
of helicopter builders, owners and
operators that in the helicopter
field the air force is interested in
greater speed, range and payload,
but most of all in achievement
of all-weather flight.
Dernier said current helicopters
cannot be flown successfully in
excessively turbulent air, in sev
ere icing conditions, or at speeds
below about 40 miles and hour.
CAB Examiner Okays
Trans - Polar Route for
Scandinavian Airline
WASHINGTON, (4)—A Civil
Aeronautics Board examiner on
Monday recommended approval
of Scandinavian Airlines applica
tion for a trans-polar air route
from Los Angeles via Greenland.
Under the recommendation,
Scandinavian Airlines would be
authorized to operate for three
years between Los Angeles, Stock
holm, Oslo, and Copenhagen by
way of Greenland.
The proposed operation would
provide the first scheduled com
mercial air transportation over a
great circle route between the
Scandinavian Peninsula and the
Pacific coast of the United States
