But said Miles, "Assistant Navy Secretary Floberg disclosed it in an eastern television program Sunday. The story said the plane, with jet engines swung in pairs in nacelles beneath the wings, apparently will be the largest, most powerful carrier aircraft in Navy use. It is believed to be nearly ready to fly. The story added: "As a high-speed, long-range carrier jet it undoubtedly is designed for use aboard super flat-tops of the future to extend the Navy's atom bomb range considerably farther than is possible with today's aircraft."

Accorded to Wm. F. Kimes, campaignerman, three individual gifts of a number recently received create the wide range of opportunities for making the program viable. The first payment on a larger sum they hoped to raise. Another check, a substantial one for $2000, was sent in by Adolf Schoepe, head of the Kwikset Lock Co. at Anaheim. In a letter to the campaign committee, Mr. Schoepe pointed out that the fast-growing industries of Northern Orange county will require added hospital facilities, and the hospital at Newport Harbor will relieve pressure on Santa Ana hospitals, making more beds available for patients from Northern Orange county. A group of high school girls with their own sorority raised $50 which they sent in with a pledge for more. The whole Newport Harbor Union High school student body, in fact, is hard at work planning new and bigger fundraising methods for helping the Hospital Plan. There are plenty of opportunities for Memorial Gifts and what a joy it is to know that every gift made in this way, will help to ease pain and suffering of the seriously ill. The whole hospital project will be a monumental memorial medical center. A tribute to the generous giving of the big-hearted citizens within the Orange county area.

Affected, in addition to the alleged water rights of plaintiff farmers, is the entire southern end of the Central valley project. The plaintiff farmers, some 1000 landowners below Friant dam, contend their riparian water rights have been violated by the federal government. They challenge the government's right talks on the Valencia orange industry, market outlook, effluent juice market on grower risk and the problem of the marshard.

Bookkeeping Class "What does it take from an oil company to run an airlift?" Ever since mid-summer of 1950, military activity in Korea has called for heavy transpacific air traffic by civilian cargo planes. Over one of their routes they fly a round trip of 13,450 miles—some twenty-six times the length of the famous airlift into Berlin. Hundreds of companies help supply this operation. Maybe you'd like to know what it takes from an oil company to run an airlift. Standard's part in the Pacific airlift shows that it's a big help to have large companies on hand when the going gets rough. Our work is focused mainly at Wake Island, that pinpoint some 4000 miles from the U.S. West Coast. After World War II, Wake was a refueling stop for commercial airliners en route to the Orient. But then came the struggle at the 38th parallel— Before trouble kindled in Korea, only 20 planes a week re-roofed at Wake. When that num Before trouble kindled in Korea, only 20 planes a week refueled at Wake. Then that number multiplied many times. We'd been supplying gas to the island when the U.S. asked us to step up deliveries; we were able to do it. As a big, integrated company, we called on our own tanker fleet. To secure the special loading equipment needed by the ground crews, a Standard ship picked up the nearest available—at far-off Canton Island. And at U.S. request, we helped build new storage facilities along Wake's runways. As air activity stopped up even more, Wake needed larger ground crews. Again, Standard's bigness helped. Using facilities in Honolulu, we quickly trained men, tripled our Wake manpower. To keep Wake and the airlift supplied on a regular basis, Standard drew once more on its tanker fleet. We now operate a shuttle service to Wake from the Pacific Coast. Again, being big and having our own facilities helps us serve. Of course, the transpacific airlift starts in America, and at home on this end of the route Standard keeps some 10 airlines supplied with aviation gasoline. It would take a stack of drums a mile high to hold our increased daily output for this use. At the same time, we're also supplying military needs...and our usual volume for motorists.
