American Jets Join Tito's Air Force Four Planes Arrive As First Allotment BELGRADE, Yugoslavia, UP 4 Four American-ipadd jet planes roared into a airport today to become part of the air force Marshal Tito will Use to meet any challenge of Soviet satellite neighbors. The planes* first allotted to Yugoslavia by the United States under the American military program, landed at Batajnica Field near here after putting in a display of aerial acrobats in formar tion. ~ • United States ? Amoassador George V. Allen turned the four silvery craft over to Col. Gen. Ivan Gosnjak, Yugoslavia state secretary for national defense. "The impact of this event today will be not by us alone,” Allen said. "It will be well understood by anyone who desires to deprive Yugoslavia of its' sovereignty and independence . . . these planes are tangible symbols of the mutural determination of our two countries to maintain peace ... “Realistically, our two governments recognize that our economic and political systems are fundamentally different, but this has not prevented us as sovereign independent nations -from recognizing the re spoils ibiiites we share in helping \preserve the free world.” Gosnjak, in accepting the planes, said “the rearming of otir air force with jet aircraft means a contribution toward obtaining a qualitative balance between our armed forces and , those of the neighboring Soviet satellites which are endangering the independence of Yugoslavia. “Hungary, Romania and Bulgaria have long possessed Sovietmade jet aircraft," he said. “These aircraft as well as . other armaments we have received from the United States are meant exclusively to preserve peace and will

Bowman Quits As Berne Police Chief Resigns Position As Berne Officer Herman “Punk” Bowman, for 18 months police chief of Berne, this week tendered hia resignation to the Berne city council, and although, said Bowman, he hasn’t been called in to any meetings or had hie resignation officially accepted. he declared that he had given the last Word on the matter. Asked what the immediate cause of his resignation wa,s, he said: “It’s been going on ever since I came here as chief . . . too much griping; I’m'a nervous wreck —if I can’t do the job protecting the property , and lives of the Berne people then there isn’t anything I can do," said the former Adams county sheriff. “The breaking point came a couple of weeks ago when 1 found out who made a U-turn on U. S. highway 27 and ripped up someone's lawn on the way around. I asked the party to pay for the damages to. the lawn, which he did, but then teamed me for the business he lost from the party whose lawn was damaged.” '• “There’s been so much griping from the people oh this job—they ;tell me I’m too tough for a small town — I’m becoming a nervous .wreck.! It’s ruining my health and I can’t take it any more.” In early February Bowman hinted that he would soon turn in his resignation because he wasn’t “permitted to do. the job the way (I> see it.” He recalled that he gave a ticket to a traffic offender who then spread the story around that “I used to be a religious man bust ever since I got this ticket (it) doesn’t matter any more.” Bowman said he didn’t have any specific plans for the future but he inferred that 1 regardless of that it was a great relief to give up his present position. UNITED STATES (Continued From Page One) effective in keeping Stalin in absolute power,” the Voice said, “It may conceivably lead to a fatal crisis in the Soviet system." , Describing the new rulers as ‘ psy’cophants and hypocrites,” the broadcasts eaid it is hard to believe I that they yean hold the farthing Soviet empire together. The Voice also beamed around the world a statement by Rep. Albert P. Morano, R-Conn., challenging Malenkov to prove the “sincerity” of his hope for peace by accepting President. Eisenhower’s offer to travel halfway “to discuss proposals for peace." Experts,bn reading between the lines of Communist propaganda said Malenkov’s appeal for. Russian home front unity was the ’Sone thing that stood out" in his oration delivered Monday over the bier of Josef Stalin. "It sounds like he is whistling in the, dark," one official said. ‘‘And it 'indicates that he is definitely worried about the internal Situation.” j ~ > /Aside from this indication of fear of home .front developments, how-ever, U. S. observers found little noteworthy in the speech. did they detect any startling remarks in the speeches of L. P. Beria and V. M, Molotov, No. 2 hnd 3 men in' the new Soviet hierarchy. \ , ? As fat as relations with the wrest are concerned, officials said t|ie addresses indicated “little or no departure fibm the past." , One observer compared Malenkov’s speech to| that of a successful > election candidate who? faces the chore of consolidating his forces. At first he goes easy, they pointed out, to make sure he pleaseo ail factions until he Is certain of winning their loyalty. Later he can afford to make bolder pronouncements, they said, and that is exactly what they expect the Soviet boss to do. ' These experts pointed out that Malenkov paid special attention to the armed forces in an obvious effort to win loyalty of tlfe military. No man can long remain at the top in Russia without the support of the army, they said, and Malenkov is making certain he wins its backing from the outset. As part of that move, he named Marshal Gregory K. Zhukov, World War II military leader who had been shunted to the background in recent years, to be deputy minister of war. Zhukov is known to be extremelyXpopular •with the military. Stalin was reported to have been afraid he would gain too much power. ,4‘k Report Is Given To Pres.

Oddities Crop Up Mail Delivery Service

By JOHN L. United Press Staff (Correspondent WASHINGTON, UP —For only three , cents difference jou can send a'letter fsom Washington, D. C., to Dellas, Tex., just as fast as one to Arlingtdn, Va., just across the Potoma<? River. That was one of the things shown by a recent spot check of the postal service through test mailings to offices and homes across the country. \ \ A six-cent airmail letter posted in Washington at 5 p.m., e.s.t. on a Monday afternoon was delivered to the United Press office in Dallas by regular carrier at 11:30 a.m. c.s.t. the next day—elapsed time 19hours. / A three-cent regular letter posted at the same time was delivered to a home in nearby Arlington, va. at 12:30 p.m. e.s.t. —likewise 19% hours. Most of the 50,000,000,000 pieces of mail handled by £h® postal service in a year get through the maze of coßeetions, sortings, shippings and distributions on schedule. A letter is handled seven to 10 tildes from sender to receiver. Thi test runs brbught out some Here are a few: Airmail was swifter to Dallas and Los Angeles than it was to closer points like New York; Hartford, Conn.; Des-. Moines, la.,- Denver, and Salt Lake City. ? Dallas and Lqs Angeles got bvernight service—delivery the next day. So did Atlanta, Ga.; Miami; Detroit; Springfield, 111., and Chicago. > It took two days—'Monday evening to Wednesday morning—for delivery of airmail letters to New York. Hartford, Des Moines, Denver, Salt Laka City, Portland, Ore*, and San Francisco. \ A regular three-eent letter to New York was delivered in 18 hours. An airmail letter posted simultaneously took 39 hAurs. “Weather, possibly,” was thel department’s explanation. The weather bureau said the weather was all right. Air and regular letters on the return trip. New York Washington, were both delivered within 24 hours of the mailing. ’ | Such differences did not appear in test-mailings of regular threecent letters. Most of them Were delivered in one, two or three days—deipending on the distance from Washington. ' ~ \ But the difference between once-a-day home deliveries and three-a-day for offices was noticeable. Nearly one-third of the tesi lett ters to business offices arrived on the carrier’s second or third delivery of the day. Home delivery limited to once a day, ran one day behind office delivery in several instances. All of the test letters from Washington Wore dropped into an office
