Navy Joins in Plea for Conservation of Alloy And of Tin.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 20 (U. P.). —Army and Navy officials have

asked the Office of Production man- |.

agement to stop releasing tungsten from reserve stock piles for nondefense uses except in cases of extreme necessity. The request became known today se the Government sought to accelerate accumulation and production of two other strategic defense metals—tin and magnesium. Tin has been obtained from foreign sources and, according to defense officials, production facilities for magnesium in the United States are inadequate. A tin smelter and magnesium plant will be built,

China Chief Source

Army and Navy officials have recommended that the OPM try to keep the tungsten stockpile strictly * on a reserve basis so that there will be an adequate supply if Chinese sources are cut off by Far Eastern war developments. Sixty per cent of American tungsten imports are from China. The Army- Navy group fears that the opening of the stockpile for sales to commercial concerns not engaged in essential defense production may seriously jeopardize future preparations. Tungsten is used for increasing the tensile strength of machine tool steel, projectiles and armor plate.

“Stringency ” Eased

President Roosevelt issued an executive order Feb, 4, authorizing the OPM to sell or dispose of the Tungsten stockpile which is being built up through the procurement division of the Treasury for the Army and Navy. OPM officials reported then . that a temporary “stringency” among manufacturers existed because the Burma Road to China had been closed. They said sizable shipments ‘are now en route here since the road was reopened. Federal Loan Administrator Jesse

Gains National Popularity As ‘Stainless Steel For Builders.

Crinoline has become the stainless steel of model aviation. Model builders on the West Coast have used it for some time and now it’s gaining national prominence in important parts ‘of’ gasoline-powered models. Crinoline . looks like starched cheesecloth, being stiff, but very loosely woven, and it has the quality of working exceedingly well over compound curves such as those on a cowling. A piece can be applied so that it contracts or expands in all directions.

Used for Hinges

One of its big uses is for hinges to fasten control surfaces. Others are to cover nose blocks, wing spars, trailing edges and parts which receive a great deal of wear with the [7% making them extremely strong. To apply this material, model cement of rather thick consistency should be spread liberally over the wood. Lay the crinoline in place and with the fingers rub it out to the form of the wood. Then go over the surface with cement, rubbing it into the mesh of the cloth. The cement softens the starch and when the whole unit has dried it becomes hard and tough as oak. It is especially recommended for the fuselage boftoms of singlewheel and retractable landing gear ships, since these models are in for a lot of hard knocks when Lhey land in ‘rough country.

Prevents Warping

Applied to the trailing edge of gas model wings the cloth prevents them from warping with taut covering and makes them secure against the pull of the rubberbands used to hold the wing in place. Crinoline does not increase greatly the weight of model parts. It can be applied to especially light and soft balsa, making the part no heavier than if it were made from harder and tougher wood without the use of crinoline. _ Propellers might be coated with it to increase their weight and strength, although it doesn’t pay to be over-enthusiastic in making a propeller strong. When a model noses in, something has to give and it’s better the prop than the motor. ” 2

Chicago Gets Title Meet

The National Aeronautic Association, through its model division (the Academy of Model Aeronautics), has granted sanction to the Chicago Park District and the Chicago Times to co-sponsor the 1941 National Model Championships in Chicago July 1-5. Last year’s meet, under the same sponsorship, drew 1200 contestants: and 80,000 spectators.

BY FOOD IMPORTS

BRUSSELS, Feb. 11 (U. P.).— (Via Berlin: Delayed)—Belgium'’s food situation has improved slightly because of imports of wheat, rye and potatoes, but meats and fats continue most scarce. Germany, according to official statements, is providing Belgium with 40,000 tons of wheat and 80,000 tons of rye. New bread is to be made of wheat and rye in the proportion indicated. The rationing of potatoes finally is becoming more efficient as the rationing department had put 12,000 tons on the market and it is asserted that 25,000 tons are coming from Holland and 30,000 from Germany. Official and private organizations and individuals are trying to care for children, but are handicapped by lack of milk, meats and fats. For several days meat has been almost completely lacking. But many restaurants have meat and its presence on menus caused resentment among people who are unable to buy from butchers.

THERE'S A CRIME EVERY 21 SECONDS

WASHINGTON, Feb. 20 (U. P.).—

United States every 21 seconds. The Justice Department said today that there were 1,517,026 serious crimes committed in the United States during 1940 an increase of 2.2 per cent as compared with 1939. There was a felonious homicide every 44 minutes; a robbery every 10 minutes; a burglary every one and two-thirds minutes; a larceny every 35 seconds and an automobile theft every three minutes.
