RADIOSHORT FIRE FICHTING The Tahoe national forest has reto cently concluded the installation ‘of receiver and transmitter radio seta throughout the huge area administered. Each ranger district is euipped with one or more portable radio and six lookout stations have stationary sets. : Grouse Ridge is the relay station for all lodkouts. A message sent from the main office in Nevada City goes first to. Grouse Ridge on one frequency band and is automatically transmitted to other lookouts on a' ‘. different. band. The radio communication recently ' tested in one or two fires has epee invaluable in saving tlme, Men, food, camp and fire fighting eos ment can -be called for: by rangers in-charge of any fire; and-immediately gathered and dispatched to the point where they are wanted. The portable radio set on the scene of a ] fire keeps the headquarters in immediate touch with conditions. Airlanes, when called into service, al60 are in instant ~ communication ‘. both with the tive crews and headquarters. “The chief value of the -#adio equipment,’ said Gondon Vance, chief fire dispatcher of the Tahoe national forest, “is its use in the control of fires. It is also very useful. in many administrative phases of our SEN. JOHNSON BACKS HOU mR FOR SEN: WASHINGTON, D-.C:, Oct..12— In a strongly worded endorsement of the senatorial candidacy of Lieut. Gov. Fred Houser, United States Senator Hiram: ‘W. Johnson today urged the voters of his: “beloved California’ to elect Houser in November. Senator Johnson, who has served nearly five terms ins the United States senate; said he has watched Houser’s career “with i i 'WRITES OF DAYS ®dwards came up to me and said, you?’’. He replied, in handy,’ jeep and go forward on foot medic man left his’ kit in the jeep,
but Lt. Edwards saw it and made lieutenant governor, his record speaks for itself as one of achieve: ment in the field of progressive legislation. . “He has always fought to protect the rights of all citizens. He has performed his duties in every position he has held with vision, understanding and rare ability. He is no novice in shaping legislation, and now with conscientious fairness fills the office of lieutenant governor. If elected to the office of United States sen'ator he. will bring to it able and conscientious representatién in the interests of the great industries of California, and those that are national in scope, and will decide on their merits the questions whiih may arise. He will bring to his duties the same careful discrimination and independence. What I like most about him is he-will never be any man’s “rubber stamp” and in him the most humble citizen of our country will have’ this champion. Upon his record .he has ever shown clear thinking and righteous doing. “I commend the candidacy of Fred Houser to the citizenship of my pes] loved state. You will make no blunder in his choice and will be assured in his election of a faithful, able, conscientious and independent lesislator. In sincere appreciation of an honest man fighting the battle of the weak, with justice for all, I shall cast my vote for Fred Houser.”— cree Ww. oe P MAJOR CHAPMAN 'N HOSPITAL Dr. C. W. Chapman ‘has. received a letter from his son, Major Warren Chapman, who was wounded two weeks ago while on a reconnaisance mission onthe Italian front -and-is now hospitalized. The letter follows: : . Dear Pa: T am still getting along fine and ican even move my left leg about a bit and almost roll over in bed.'They «en all the stiches out today and all the wounds look very healthy. It was-such*a good job that I probably won’t have any. very bad scars. My right leg, of course, is still fin a cast, and all I have to do is to wait for the bone to mend; but I 3 or 4 more weeks. Then I’ll have to develop the legs again. Tomorrow I'am to be moved to the 6th general hospital which is 5 miles from here. I recall telling you there.was a “story’’ about the medical aid, man who wags with our reconnaisance party when I was hit. Since I don’t think I told the story, here goes: When I was organizing the reconnaisance party I wanted to cut down all-unessentials and keep it as small as Dpossible because I knew we were going into the front lines and. that if Jerry spotted a large grpup of men he would likely lay into us with artillery and mortars. Months -previously I had formed a decided aversion for such receptions. the California War Council and now guesg the leg will be in a cast for; eee ee those boys ‘up in’ the fox holes tonight even if it isn’t raining up there. My mail hasn’t canght up with m> yet. so I guess it'll be/something like it was when I first came over seas. Some day I'll be deluged. I am still getting along fine, Now they let me up in a wheel chair for an.hour each day so. I can go around to see my friends in the hospital. At least 90% of the patients are from the infantry and of course, my outfit, hag its. share. My commanding officer was~killed by a mine about ten days afier I was hit (Sept. 28.) Ihave already been in three hospitals and today I was told that in four or five days I would be sent to one in Naples. One of the officers hereva e ward has a radio, so we ce during the evening. : The army has a radio station in Rome that broadcasts popular programs from the states. I hope Helen isn’t in Italy trying to locate me in the front line units while all I have to do is’ to’ sleep, } read, eat, and do some writing. Hope you are all well and getting along all right. Love, BUZZ. N. B.—Helen is in South England and has been moved about so much that her mail also, has not yet caught up with her, and she probably does not yet. know of Buzz being wounded. in: action, but Buzz, has tried to let her know about it.
