WOMEN VIEWED AS WAR PILOTS

Feminine Fliers Would Rise To Emergency, Aviatrix Says.

AKRON, O, Dec. 2 (U. P)— Jacqueline Cochran believes that women {are not fitted emotionally for the job of piloting airliners, although she competed succesfully with male pilots to win the Bendix Trophy -in- this year’s National Air Races in Cleveland. “My aviation experiences have convinced me that women would not make good airline pilots—we could not stand the steady grind,” she said. Women pilots in wartime? That is a different matter, said Miss Cochran, “In the strain and stress of war, women fliers would rise to the emergency and do a marvelous piece of work,” she said.

Reveals Early Struggles

Miss Cochran “dropped in” to speak at the Akron women’s chapter of the National Aeronautic Association. For the first time, she

revealed her early struggles while gaining recognition as a flier. “Six years ago I was quite an unknown person, working in a store in New York,” she said. “I left a good position to buy a small airplane. From then on things began to happen to me thick and fast.” | She emphasized, however, that for every. “lucky .break” she got, she received 20 discouraging ones. - “My first plane cracked up on a takeoff. - The one school of piloting I wanted to enter was closed to women. Then I had a severe illness,” she said.

Encouraged by Amelia

“Although I finally ‘crashed through’ to the field of big-time aviation, I do not consider myself a heroine in any sense of the word. The real flying heroines were those who piloted planes 10, 15 and 20 years ago.” Miss Cochran said that she was a very close friend of Amelia Earhart and really had learned to fly because of Amelia's encouragement. “Amelia spent much of the last six months of her life—before her attempted ‘round-the-world flight— at my ranch,” the aviatrix said. “Had Amelia's flight materialized, I was to use her plane to make a Paris flight.” This year’s Bendix Trophy winner recently was selected as the one woman member of a new youth movement in aviation, headed by Winthrop Rockefeller, John D. Rockefeller’s grandson.

|Cigar Butt Gathering’ Bum Explains All With ‘Rubaryat

KANSAS CITY, Mo, Dec. 2 (U.

club—a driver. The face had been cut away and the head hollowed. As the gentleman swung along he whipped the club about briskly but not aimlessly. At each swing he neatly picked up a cigar butt or a cigaret snipe in the hollow head. His timing was perfect and no professional golfer ever had finer wrist

snap. Finally two men from the crowd that followed approached. The gentleman was transferring his haul to an old tobacco tin. “Mister,” said one, “where did you ever get such a fine swing?” The old man put away the last butt, handed the questioner a dirty piece of paper, and hurried away. On the paper was written a verse from Omar Khayyam’s “Rubiyat.” “And if the wine you drink, the lip you press, End in the nothing all things end in, yes, Then fancy while thou art, thou art but what Thou shall .be—nothing—thou shalt not be less.”

ONCE IS ENOUGH, TWICE TOO MUCH

PITTSBURG, Cal, Dec. 2 (U. P.) —The first time Herman Pynaman, 50, went to sleep in‘a hotel with a lighted cigaret and caused firemen to make a hurried run to save him, they went fo considerable trouble to do their full duty. However, when he did the same thing a couple of weeks later, they

took the affair more nonchalantly. They poured a pitcher of water on the bed, opened the window to let the smoke out, and departed without even awakening him.

UTILITY INTEGRATION

’SEC STARTS 5-YEAR

64 of 66 Holding Companies Comply With Request.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 2 (U. P.) — The Securities and Exchange Commission began today a five-year job to reshape the national utilities.

Delayed by litigation nearly a year, the SEC now is ready to carry out the mandate of Congress that public utility holding company sys= tems be integrated both economically and geographically “as soon as practicable after Jan. 1.” SEC Chairman William O. Douglas announced “practically 100 per cent” compliance with his request that helding companies submit at least tentative integration proposals not later than Dec. 1. He conservatively estimated that at least five years would be consumed in completing the program ordained by Congress in the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935. Under the so-called “death sentence” or integration clause of the act, many systems’ will have to divest themselves of control of certain widely scattered properties. They may have to exchange with other systems certain units so as to conform with the geographical: phases of the program. Mr. Douglas said that he was very

industry to his letter of Aug. 4 requesting heads of 66 holding companies to file plans, suggestions or programs for integration. Responses have been received from 64. The two firms unaccounted for are very small systems, he said. “While none of us has had a chance to examine the details of all the plans,” he said, “it is evident that an awful lot of work has been
