(. A. B. RULES
NO SMOKING
IN BERTHS
By ROBERT S. ALDRICIl
United Press Staff Correspondent
WASHINGTON, — You can't
smoke in your berth when flying
to Paris, Cairo or Balikpapan.
The Civil Aeronautics Board says
so.
The CAB has issued a neat new
book of rules—part 41 to the civil
air regulations^-which lays down
the law to air carriers who plan
to fly those long oceanic hops. It's
effective August 1.
To the question, where does CAB
authority leave off and that of
the foreign country begin, the
answer is, they're one and the
same. International agreements
worked out at the Chicago air con-
ference last November, and else-
where, prevent conflicts on such
matters as how many beacon lights
and what kind of radio equipment
must be installed on the foreign
routes. Anywhere in the world a
U. S. plane may go, it will bound
by part 41—all 24 pages of it!
Just as ocean liners haye life-
boats, so overseas planes will have
lifepresfervers, life rafts and Very
pistols. The ?xperienSes o dunked
pilots in this war mean better
safety provisions for civilian trav-
elers.
Must Wear Masks
If the ship flies over 10,000 feet
above sea level for more than half
an hour, the crew must wear oxy-
gen masks. The passengers won't
have to put theirs on until the
plane hits 12,000 feet. Many
planes, though, will have pressur-
ized cabins, meaning you cantfgo
above those heights without get-
ting that woozy feeling.
The rulebook covers such mat-
ters as the instruments a plane
must carry, qualifications of crew
members and rules for landings
and take-offs. It says how long
a pilot can fly—12 hours—during
any 24-hour period. When he has
flown 20 hours in any 48-hour
period, hVs supposed to rest 18
hours before going back on duty.
This is to keep him from snooz-
ing over Pago-Pago. Furthermore,
he can't fly more than 1,000 hours
in a year. While the war lasts, aand
six months afterward, the limit is
1,200 hours.
Part 41 gets a little technical
in spots. But it puts you back on
the beam, if you were under the
impression that Uncle Sam is
going to kiss goodbye to his ocean-
hopping planes at Staten Island
and the Golden Gate. Fact is, the
old boy is going along for the ride.

Careless Jap Saves
Lieutenant's Life
TULSA, Okla.—The son of
former Oklahoma House Speaker
Johnson D. Hill is alive today to
tell of his experience with a care-
less Japanese. The story was
learned here by Hill from his son,
Lt. J. D. Hill, Jr., now in Letter-
man Hospital in San Francisco,
Gal.
Hill, who is recuperating from a
shell wound, was a platoon leader
of the 27th Infantry (New York)
Division and was hit on his second
day in combat on the bloody Ryu-
kyus islands.
"The carelessness of a Japanese
saved-my life," young Hill said. "A
mortar shell hit me squarely in the
back, but luckily the gunner had
failed to pull the safety pin and
the projectile did not explode."
Hill worked on the Sacramento,
Cal., Bee newspaper before he en-
listed in 1942. He earned a com-
mission in the coast artillery, but
later was assigned to the infantry.
Besides Hill's parents, his wife
and small son live in Tulsa.

PRODUCTION ASSURES
PUBLIC OF BLANKETS
WASHINGTON.—The War Pro-
duction Board has acted to assure
civilians of an ample supply of
blankets this winter. It revoked
an order which has kept a 100 per
cent freeze on wool blankets to fill
military requirements.
The Army has reduced its third
quarter requirements for wool
blankets by .5,000,000 yards.. This
is approximately the civilian quar-
terly demand, the WPB said.

GRANDMA IN
HER CHAIR
She's as Lively as a Youngster—
Now her Backache is better
Many sufferers relieve nagging backache
quickly, once they discover that the real
cause of their trouble may be tired kidneys.
The kidneys are Nature's chief way of tak-
ing the excess acids and waste out of the
blood. They help most people pass about 3
pints a day.
When disorder of kidney function permits
poisonous matter to remain in your blood, it
may causenaggingbackache, rheumatic pains,
leg pains, loss of pep and energy, getting up
nights, swelling, puffiness under the eyes,
headaches and dizziness. Frequent or scanty
passages with smarting and burning some-
times shows there is something wrong with
your kidneys or bladder.
Don't wait! Ask your druggist for-Doan's
Pills, a stimulant diuretic, used successfully
by millions for over 40 years. Doan's give
happy relief and will help the 15 miles of
kidney tubes flush out poisonous waste from
your blood. Get Doan's Pills.
