idea of breakfasting in New—V.!
York, having dinner in Paris, was'tj
inconceivable a few years ago. In
the 21st century, jet travelers will
breakfast in New York—and have
lunch in Paris! Super-jet age planes
will .streak across skyways at
1 800 miles per hour!
Next century's aulos will travel magnetic highways. Steering should
be obsolete as the operator pushes a selector button, sits back, and
lets magnetism draw him along to his destination—prevent him from
colliding with other vehicles.
The monorail—a train running
"* along one overhead track —
may prove the future's answer
L"" to traffic congestion on the
ground! One monorail system
is now being built in Seattle. It
I will speed passengers from
X downtown to the site of the

Joseph Newkirk Grounded
On High-Flying Charges j
LOS ANGELES UR — They’ve1
grounded high-flying Joseph
Newkirk, who brandished a knife
after an airline stewardess re- ;
lieved him of his whisky flask.
He was sentenced to 90 days
in the county jail Monday for
drunkenness and disturbing the
peace.
Newkirk, 60, a janitor, was
taken off a Chicago to Los An
geles jetliner Saturday and
booked on suspicion of assault
with a deadly weapon.
But the assault count didn’t
stick. The district attorney’s of
fice refused to issue a complaint,
explaining that its jurisdiction
does not extend into the skies—
at least not beyond the California
border.
City police based their misde
meanor counts on Newkirk’s con
dition as he left the plane.
Newkirk, of Argo, 111., said all
he could remember was that he
was drunk when he boarded the
plane.

Tuesday sued Westinghouse Elec
tric Corp. for $20 million, claim
ing the giant electric firm sup
plied defective, low efficiency

Plant and the Gallatin, Tenn.,
Steam Plant.
“The many defects in the ma

Death Takes
Whittaker Chambers
WESTMINSTER, Md. UPl —
Whittaker Chambers, central fig
ure in the famous Communist spy
case involving Alger Hiss, died
Sunday at his farm home here
and has been cremated, a funeral
director reported Tuesday.
John Meyers, the funeral direc
tor, called the Associated Press
on instruction of Chambers’ son
“after the cremation.”
Myers said the fact that Cham
bers died and was cremated was
all the information wanted made
known. “They’re very secretive,”
Myers said.
Chambers had been living on
a farm in this central Maryland
country since 1948. It was on the
farm where Chambers produced
for congressional spy hunters in
1948 his “pumpkin papers.” They
were microfilms of secret docu
ments that Chambers said were
given him by Communist agents.
Chambers was the key prosecu
tion witness against Hiss, a for
mer high ranking official in the
State Department, at two trials.
Hiss was convicted at the second
trial of perjury and sentenced
to a five-year term in the Lewis
burg, Pa., federal penitentiary.
Hiss has since been released.

Red Ch ilia and
North Korea Sign
Assistance Treaty
TOKYO tiP—Communist China
and North Korea Tuesday signed
a mutual assistance treaty pledg
ing full military support to each
other if either nation is attacked.
Premiers Chou En-Lai of Com
munist China and Kim Il-Sung
of North Korea signed the pact
in Peiping, the Communist China
News Agency reported.
It is similar to a treaty of
mutual assistance and friendship
signed just last week with the
Soviet Union by the traveling
North Korean premier.
The Soviet pact pledges to
come to North Korea’s aid if it
is attacked. Since Korea borders
on Red China, this was considered
in the West as a Soviet challenge
to Peiping’s influence in the
Communist sphere of Asia and
other instances of a rift between
Moscow and Peiping.
At a banquet for Kim in Peip
ing Monday night, however,
President Liu Shao-Chi congratu
lated Kim on the Soviet treaty
and said it strengthens the Com
munist bloc as a whole.
Kim, who headed North Korea’s
army as well as its government
when Peiping sent its so-called
volunteers to his aid in the
Korean War, warmly praised
Communist China.

Airmen Will No Longer
Stand Lifeguard Duty
At Officer’s Pools
WASHINGTON OP — Airmen
no longer will stand duty as life
guards at officers swimming pools.
Nor will they manicure golf
courses.
Rep. Frank Kowalski, <D
Conn.), complained recently to
Secretary of the Air Force Eu
gene M. Zuckert that 20 enlisted
men at Forbes Air Force Base
in Kansas had been relieved of
regular duties and assigned to
lifeguard duty at an officers’
pool.
Also, the congressman said,
each squadron at the base was
required to supply a man each
day for the “questionable mili
tary tasks of cutting and raking
up the grass on the golf course.”
“There certainly is no excuse
for wasting taxpayers’ money to
provide lifeguards at an officers’
pool,” Kowalski said.
Zuckert agreed. He wrote Ko
walski that except in rare in
stances airmen will not be de
tailed to work in recreational
activities. He said he had so ad
vised all Air Force base com
manders.
