WASHINGTON.—A base for its heaviest and longest range bombers will be built by the United States in Aroostook county, Maine, the cor ner of the nation closest to trou bled Europe. The army air forces disclosed this important development in the na tion's strategic planning in a rou tine announcement that work would begin soon on construction of the new base, four miles from the Ca nadian border. It probably will be completed in the fall of 1948, at a cost estimated at between 13 and 14 million dollars. Supcrbombcr Base. While the announcement did not mention particular types of bomb ers, the AAF now uses B-29s and expects delivery in the near fu ture of B-50s and later B-36s. Un less a new very heavy bombard ment (VHB) command is created before the field goes into use, it is probable that one of the two forces of the strategic air command, the 8th or 15th air forces, will operate superbombers from it. The new field, to be built four miles northwest of the village of Limestone, is about 30 miles north east of the AAF base at Presque Isle, Me., starting point for trans Atlantic flights during the war. When asked why a new base was being constructed instead of improv ing one of the existing bases in the area, an AAF official said that "the criteria for very heavy bombard ment bases have increased so much that no field in the area could be converted as quickly or cheaply as can be done by constructing a new base." While the official did not elabo rate, his reference to the increased requirements for a base suggested that the runways would be capable of handling the huge B-36s, which will be able to carry 36 tons of bombs. This airplane, far heavier than the wartime B-29, is understood to be too heavy for most existing runways. 10,000-Foot Runway. Construction plans call for a run way 10,000 feet long by 300 feet wide, taxiways 100 feet wide, parking ap rons 700 by 2,000 feet, a "hangar 300 by 370 feet (wing span of the B-36 Is 230 feet) ; sewage disposal plant, water supply system and electric power system capable of serving 2,000 men and which can be expand ed later; operations building and control tower and barracks and din ing hall facilities for a security de tachment of 250 men. Local labor and construction ma terials will be utilized as far as pos sible, the AAF said. It was recalled that the army and navy jointly announced a new uni fied military command system last winter which included a northeast command. Beyond the original offi cial announcement that such a com mand would "include U. S. bases and forces in the northeastern ap proaches to the United no description of this plan had been issued up to now. Speculation has been that the northeast command would be head ed by an air officer. Wives of G.I.s Can Learn To Cook on $90 a Month IOWA CITY. IOWA. —Wives of G.I. students at Iowa university are going to school to learn how to cook on $90 a month. Special classes have been set up, under sponsorship of the Red Cross nutrition committee. The idea came into being when a number of veter ans' wives, pressed by a tight budget and spiraling prices, voiced a need for economical ways of pre paring food. "It's almost impossible to live on $90 a month, and it's worse when you're learning to cook from a cook book," one said. Report Miracles in Cairo Church, Paper Announces CAIRO, EGYPT. — Le Progrès Egyptien, Cairo newspaper, said that a man paralyzed 10 years be came able to walk and that a 9 year-old child blind since birth gained his eyesight in two St. George's day miracles in the Greek Orthodox St. George's church.

Added Life Decade Seen in Vitamin A NEW YORK. — Experiments on white rats which eat the same foods as humans have shown that a nor mal diet plus extra vitamin A lengthens the life span and extends the "prime of life," Dr. Henry Clapp Sherman, Mitchell professor emeritus of chemistry at Columbia university, announced, Dr. Sherman, regarded as one of | the highest authorities on the chem j j s try of food, took as the normal diet for his experiments the vitamin j a and caloric relationship of the recommended allowances of Na tional Research council, nounced at the national nutrition conference called by President Roosevelt in 1941. According to Dr. Sherman, the experiments showed that quadrupled allowances of vita min A in human nutrition are de sirable. "This appears the more prob able," Dr. Sherman said, "in view of the fact that most people prob ably live less protected lives than those of experimental animals. A certain food mixture called 'Diet Extra Years Can Be 'Inserted' at Prime by Diet. as an A' was found adequate to the sup port of normal nutrition generation after generation for the white rats; yet 'Diet B,' differing only in its proportion of protective food, has been found to result in better life histories. "Growth and development are beneficially expedited, vitality is higher and death rates lower at all ages; full adult capacity or 'prime of life' is attained earlier and re tained longer and the life expecta tion is increased not only for the young but also for the adults. The previous general progress of public health has increased the life expec tation of the infant but not of the grown person. Now, the nutritional improvement of the norm raises the life expectation of the adult as well. "The extra years thus offered are not to be pictured as added to old age. Rather it appears that some thing like an extra decade can be inserted at the prime or apex of the life lived in accordance with today's newer knowledge of nutrition. Life becomes longer because it is lived on a higher health level throughout. The apex of attainment is higher, the period of the prime is longer and, in human terms, there is a smaller percentage of years of de pendence." Dr, Sherman conducted his ex periments on a grant of $8,000 from the nutrition foundation. Woman Drives 400 Miles With Body of Her Husband SIOUX FALLS, S. D.—A 60 year-old Wyoming ranch woman, fulfilling a pact made with her late husband, drove into Sioux Falls with his blanket-wrapped body after more than a 400-mile trip across South Dakota from Wyoming.

She notified Sioux Falls police that she and her husband, one time residents of this neighbor hood, had agreed that in the event of either's death, burial would be here.
