Hoosier Vagabond-

IN THE WESTERN PACIFICO (Delayed).—The first time you see a plane land on a carrier you almost die. At the end of the first day my muscles were sore just from being all tensed up while watching the planes come in. It is all so fast, timing is so split-second, space is so smali— well, somebody said that carrier pilots were the best in the world. ‘They must be or there wouldn't be any of them left alive. Planes don't approach a carwier as they would on land--{rom way back and in a long glide. Instead, they almost seem to be sneaking up as if to surprise it. They're in such an awkward position and flying at such a crazy angle you don't see how they can ever land on anything. But it's been worked out by years of experience, and it's the best way. Everything is straightened out in the last few seconds of flying. That is—if it works. Anything “can happen in those last few seconds Once in a great while the plane loses its speed and " spins into thé water just behind the ship. Planes have been known to ram right into the stern of the ship.

Like Landing on Main St. THE AIR currents are always bad. The ship's “island” distorts the currents, and -makes the air rough. Even the wake of the ship—the waters churned up by the propellers—have an effect on the gir through which the planes must pass. If half a dozen planes come in successively without one getting a “wave off” from the signalman, you're doing pretty well, For landing on the deck of a small carrier in a rough sea is just about like landing on half a block of Main st. while a combined hurricane and earthquake is going on. You would call it a perfect landing if a plane came in dnd hit on both wheels at the same time, in the center of the deck headed straight forward, and caught about the third one of the cables stretched mcross the deck. : But very few of them aye perfect. They come ih a thousand different ways. If their approach Is too bad, the signalmen waves them around again. They'll sometimes come in too-fast and hit the deck so hard a tire blows sideways, and the cable will jerk them around in a . fire-screeching circle, They'll come in too close to the edge of the deck, and sometimes go right on over the catwalk. They'll

That is the elementary steam turbine.

Getting the Carrier Stance’ DURING THE Tokyo strike, one of the big carriers running near us lost three planes in 10 minutes. One was shot up and had to “ditch” in the water alongside the ship. The next one slammed into the “island,” and was so wrecked they just heaved the wreckage over the side. The next one to come in crashed the “barrier” and burned up. : And on the other hand, you'll land planes for weeks without a bad crackup. We wrecked three planés our first three days out in crashes—and not a single ene after. that, The first. time I watched our boys land, they were pretty bad.

It's always that way after a ship has been in port for a while. - Everybody dreads the first two or three days until they get their hand:in again.

I've had to watch 2000 of them. It'i!’drive you nuts.” ’ The previous skipper of this ship finally got so he refused to watch when the planes were coming in.

Ul. §. CARRIERS

INNEW ATTACK |

Raids on Okinawa Island in Second Day, Tokyo Radio Says.

GUAM, March 24 (U. P.).—Tokyo reported that hundreds of American carrier planes attacked Okinawa island, enemy naval and air -base 300 miles southwest of Japan, last evening and today, Some 230 planes opened the assault late yesterday, Tokyo said. Other formations carried it into a second day with raids still continuing after eight hours today, Japanese broadcasts added. Miyako island, 180 miles southwest of Okinawa and only 210 miles northeast of Formosa, also was under attack today, Tokyo said The planes presumably came ‘rom the 5th fleet with' Vice Adm.| | Marc A. Mitscher’s force of a dozen | or more carriers.

Okinawa lies midway between | Japan proper and Formosa in the Ryukyu island chain. It is an important link in the belt of air and sea bases protecting the southern! approaches to the enemy homeland. The task force which struck at! the inland sea earlier this week, Tokyo insisted, was “reported in flight” near Fork gulf, 600 miles east {of Formosa, “with the greater part {of its carrier units smashed by the {Japanese attackers.” Capt.” Etsuzo Kuihara, chief of | the Japanese navy’s press section, boasted in a Tokyo broadcast that | the American task force again should appear off Japan, “we'll deal them another crushing blow.” “Not Decisive” At the same time, however, added that the force did not con- |

That is an elementary statement of the principle upon which the gas turbine operates. To make use of every power factor, the burnt gases, after they have done their work of spinning the turbine blade, are exhausted rearward. thus providing some little Jet propulsion effect.

Gas Turbine Is Promising

UP TO THE PRESENT, the liniiting factor in pro-| ducing high horsepower in a gas turbine has been! the capacity of the metals to withstand the high temperatufés. The engineers say they have enough | of this metallurgical problem licked.to turn out gas turbine power plants which will provide the 5000-plus horsepower plants required by the giant planes on the drafting boards. It's a remarkably simple engine, with only a single shaft and a few wheels on it. You undoubtedly will continue to read a lot o nonsense about the jet engine and the gas turbine scrapping all that has been accomplished in the science of developing the famous 100-octane gasoline. This isn't true, because, as the compressors are speeded up and the metallurgists provide metals | which will stand greater heats, we will be using higher octanes, and finally 100-octane in the gas turbine and also in the jet engine.

fear that the present disagree ment will continue. This coult store up dynamite that migh

explode with demobilization. L 2 ” ” THERE has been plenty of dis cussion, particularly by a com mittee under Brig. Gen. Frank 1 Hines, head of the new re-em ployment and retraining admin istration, but nearly all of it ha been behind closed doors. Among written arguments tha! have not been made public is : joint statement by the American Federation of Labor and the C. I. 0; which contend that the selective service interpretation i unworkable and that the labor organizations have policies more liberal to veterans than the law calls for. One item made public is .2 statement by Lee - Pressman C. 1. O. general counsel, which

challenges the Hershey interpre-—~

tation and questions the authority of that official to rule on the subjeck . = a - 8 PRESSMAN cites a ruling by Prof. Herman A. Gray, an arbitrator between the C. I. O. United Steelworkers and the Timken Roller Bearing Co.

Prof. Gray contended that while a returning veteran fs entitled to seniority credit with his former employer for his time in the armed forces, “no employee can be displaced to make room for a returmed veteran if, after crediting the veteran with the seniority so accumulated, ‘such employee still has the greater seniority.” This is in direct conflict with ihe selective service policy, which was written by Col. Paul H: Grif-

fith, now deputy to Gen. Hines 2

the RRA. =n = os COL. GRIFFITH took the stand, which has been sustained by all authorities who have passed on it, that the returning veteran is entitled to his old jobe hack

, civilian with greater seniority.

Another aspect of this policy is that a returning veteran cannot be forced®to join a union or te reestablish his former membership to get his old job back. Some officials see in this contlict, now more than a vear old, the beginning of a quarrel ihat «could produce - strife when dis. charged service men re-enfss the civilian labor market. The ere sential thing now, they believe, 1s to get the policy settled. er .. n MR. PRESSMAN quotes the Timken arbitrator as concluding that under the selective service act the selective service admine istration “is given no duty to ate

minster the re-employment pros.

visions of the act, no authority fo enforce them, no power to issue

any ruling interpreting thelr meaning or any order directing compliance.” "Despite this arbitrator's opines ion, the selective - service policy has been followed by the war labor board in several cases. This

agency has recognized selective headquarters as the authority on the subject
