Cutter Effects
Thrilling Rescue
Of Downed Plane
NEW YORK, (#) — All hands
were safe Thursday aboard a
Coast Guard cutter which had
raced to a radio-guided rendez
vous with a military plane forced
to ditch into the stormy Atlantic
more than 800 miles east of Ber
muda.
Rain slashed into a running sea
a couple of hours before dark
ness Wednesday when the cutter
Coos Bay contacted a four-engine
Military Air Transport Service
craft with six crewmen and two
passengers aboard.
The pilot of the plane, bound
from the Azores to Bermuda,
shortly before had radioed the
U.S. Air Force base at Bermuda
that he was running out of fuel
1,000 miles east of that island,
bucking vicious headwinds and
had no hope of reaching land.
The 311-foot Coos Bay, on mid
ocean patrol, and itself battling
13-foot waves and 40-knot winds,
was informed.
The vessel changed course and
guided the pilot in its direction
by radio. The race against storm
and gathering darkness was on.
Two hours and 21 minutes
later, about 840 miles east of
Bermuda and two minutes before
nightfall, the big plane set down
on the wind-tossed sea. The Coos
Bay, its two motor-driven life
boats at the ready plowed to the
stricken craft and effected a 12
minute rescue job. ‘

Legislators of Both
Parties Pleased By
Governor’s Speech
JUNEAU, (J*) — Democrats and
Republicans alike expressed satis
faction Wednesday with Gov.
Heintzleman’s message to the leg
islature. Democratic members
were unstinting in their praise of
the speech by the Republican
chief executive and Republicans
sounded a strong echo.
Senate President James Nolan,
said he thought it “was a good
speech. It brought the pertinent
facts about situations facing the
territory into clear focus so they
can be undersood readily by the
legislature.”
Another top Democrat, Wendell
Kay, Speaker of the House, said
“much of the message was ex
cellent.”
Rep. Edith Bullock, Republican,
said she was “pleased and very
proud.”
The nearest thing to criticism
came from the Republican side
when Sen. John Butrovich said
“Everything he advocated is de
sirable but I don’t know how to
finance some of it.”
Democratic comment was sum
med up by Sen. Howard Lyng of
Nome who called the message
“concise, factual, and progressive
in its real meaning.”

U.S. Sabrejets Are
Sent To Formosa
TAIPEH, Formosa, UP) — Swift
U.S. Sabres, the deadly jet fight
er of the Korean war, roared to
landings on Formosa Thursday in
a surprise transfer which made
clear U.S. determination to de
fend this Chinese Nationalist
stronghold and its key outpost
islands against any Communist j
invasion.
Two top U.S. Air Force com
manders arrived simultaneously.
The transfer added a powerful
air force punch to the mighty
U. S. 7th Fleet warships and
planes which the Communists say
are “intensifying maneuvers” off
the east China coast north of For
mosa.
(The Far East Air Forces in
Tokyo said the 18th Fighter
Bomber Wing of F-86 Sabrejets
was moved to Formosa from
Okinawa and the Philippines to
provide “air power at any place
needed.”)
A wing normally consists of
75 planes.
Gen. Earle E. Partridge, FEAF
commander in Tokyo, said “Other
FEAF offensive units are being
redeployed to forward bases,” He
said the transfer “exemplifies the
global capability of U.S. Air Force
units to move at jet speeds to
any trouble spot.”
Lt. Gen. Roger Ramey, 5th Air
Force commander who heads
FEAF tactical fighters and bomb
ers in Japan and South Korea,
flew to Formosa. He was accom
panied by his deputy, Brig. Gen.
! Harold Grant.
Signs mounted that the Nation
alists would evacuate their 15,000
troops and 15,000 civilians from
the two small Tachen islands,
which lie in an exposed position
200 miles north of Formosa and
only 12 miles from the Commun
ist China mainland.
