San Francisco Chamber
Plugs for More Shipping
Alaska - California
SAN FRANCISCO, WV—The local
Chamber of Commerce put in a
plug today for more California
Alaska shipping.
It telegraphed the U.S. Mari
time Board in Washington, D.C.,
urging that Coastwise Lines be
granted its application to increase
its fleet of four ships to six and
raise its bi-weekly sailings to
weekly.
Harry R. Smith, chairman of
the Chamber’s Alaska affairs com
mittee, said Coastwise is the only
common carrier operating be
tween California, Oregon and
Alaska, and that additional ser
vice would tend to equalize rates.
Smith estimated that 25 per
cent of all cargo shipped from the
West Coast originates in Cali
fornia.

Mystery USAF
Team Is Based
In Australia
ADELAIDE, Australia, A mys
tery U.S. Air Force team has been
based in the hills just outside
Alice Springs, central Australia,
for the past four years, the Ade
laide News said yesterday.
It speculated whether the team
—No. 420 TJSAF Unit—was the
spearhead of an eventual rocket
test team to be situated in Aus
tralia.
The team arrived in 1952 when
a Globemaster landed top secret
crates of equipment, the paper
said. The report said it is known
Alice Springs installations include
highly specialized and tracking in
struments which are not only
suitable for following radioactive
cloud conditions resulting from
U.S. H-bomb tests in the Pacific,
but could form the nucleus of
equipment for rocket tracking.
The Adelaide News said that as
the U.S. has no overland range
with any comparison to Austra
lia’s Woomera rocket range, Aus
tralia would be the ideal site for
testing and subsequent recovering
of spent missiles.

ISRAELS EXISTENCE
IS NOW AT STAKE,
SAYS RUSSIAN PAPER
MOSCOW, W*—1The Soviet gov
ernment Isvestia accused Israel
yesterday of adopting Hitler’s
''Lebensraum ’ policy and asserted
the “very existence of Israel as a
state is now at stake.”
In a long article, Isvestia
charged the leaders of Israel were !
“acting as flunkeys for imperial
ism” and “pushing that country
onto a suicidal path.” It added:
“It must be said flatly and
bluntly that by hurling a chal- j
lenge to the Arab nations in the ■
face of all the peoples of the East!
fighting colonialism, Israel is dig
ging its own grave.”
The newspaper warned that Is- i
raeli leaders “should pause to re
flect and stop playing with fire, i
In the present situation they |
should extract lessons from recent!
developments, as the vpry exis- 1
tence of Israel as a state is now I
at stake.”
HIRE THE SWITCH AND
SPARE THE PSYCHIATRIST
VENTURA, Calif., (tf)—County
supervisor Joseph N. Appleton
made this suggestion during a dis
cussion on the proposed hiring of
a $l,104-a-month psychiatrist for
the school system: •
“It would be a lot cheaper to
hire switches for the teachers.”
The supervisors made no deci
sion yesterday on the psychiatrist.
But they didn’t order any switch
es, either.
