Flying Saucers Are Good NewsThe flying saucers are real; they are made not in Russia or in Mars but in the United States; and when U.S. Air Force sees fit to release information on them it will be good news. So declares Henry J. Taylor, well known journalist and radio commentator, in the August Reader’s Digest. The article is condensed from a broadcast.integrate** in the air* If you found one however, you would read (he following message sten died on it:Military secret of the United States of America (and a number).

(Dickens —jn “David Copperfield”) ORGANISE YOUR SPENDINGSpeeding tip Shipments of Building MaterialsBecause of the continued disturbing serious lag in the shipment of urgently needed building materials for Western Australia from Eastern States ports, particularly Newcastle and Port Kembla. Mr. Hugh A Leslie, MH.R-, has approached the Minister for Fuel, Shipping and Transport. (Senator G- Mc-Leay) urging that permission should be granted to overseas ships to load cargoes from Eastern States ports to Western AustraliaThe cargoes in this case, par- the same day. Priority is alsoThe saucers vary in size, Tay. lor says, from small white disks 20 inches wide to big ones 250 feet across Nearly all are round; some are flat and edged up* Bke saucers, others are not They emit no stream of light or Bmoke, have no indication of a propelling mechanise, and no *ound- They can stand stationary in the air, then dash off to right or left with increasing speed- Their function is an important imilitarv secret.Nine out of ten reports of fixing saucers are due to im-'aginalion or confusion, Taylor states. Hut several have been substantiated Nine flying disks, sighted over the Pacific (’.oast of America by United Airlines Captain E- E.

The Priority Committee which operates at Fremantle gives first priority to the mailgiven as far as Labour is concerned to ships calling al tidal ports in North-West Australia so that as far as other overseas ships and interstate ships are concerned, the allocation ot berths and labour is a matter ol first come, first served In consequence of this, there is a strong possibility that ap overseas vessel might well be delayed to a disproportionate extent while waiting to discharge ortly a small qantity of interstate cargoThe suggestion is made by the Minister, that the representative Parties in Western Australia might discuss with the representatives of the overseas shipping companies in Fremantle the possibility of more vessels being made available for the carriage of cargoes from the Eastern States.Mr. Leslie stated that he is advised that in so far as the shipment of sleei products is concerned the position as present is that at Newcastle a total of 5,178 tons awaiting shipment to Fremantle, the vessels “Ad-visvale’ ’and River Fitzroy will load approximately 5,000 tons. In regard to Port Kembla there are at present 2,021 tons awaiting shipmnet for which no vessel is at present allotted, but the Combined Traffic Committee hits under consideration the• ilWtf'.ilion of • iffiEval to ootit.ships which arrive and sail onYOURPRINTING
