(P) President Truman left Friday for Little Rock, where he will make a major foreign policy, speech Saturday. He took off at 12:37 p. m. in his personal plane, the Independence. The flight was pected to take about three hours and 20 minutes.

The president will attend the annual reunion of the 35th division, in whoich he served as an artillery captain in World War I. He carried an ebony goldheaded cane presented to him by veterans of Battery 129th field artillery, at a preinaugural breakfast last Jan. 20.

The jets give the huge plane added thrusts at moment of takeoff. The force of the jets is spent in 15 seconds.

Nurses, Orderlies. Two navy flight nurses and three WAVE orderlies saw to that the guests had all the comforts of home on the long flight. The orderlies served coffee; and the nurses, aspirin. The aspirin was not served for any effects of the flight, however. One of the nurses, Lt.

Lorraine McNaughton of Hastings, a navy nurse on Guam for 19 months, swears by the big ship. "We've had nothing except some minor cases of airsickness since we've been flying the plane," she said. Two Decks. The lavishly furnished plane, the construction of which began in 1942, is the navy's largestand the navy's answer, it hopes, to the mass transportation problem. Its two-deck, red-carpeted passenger facilities, connected by a winding staircase, will handle 180 persons comfortably.

Or, it is capable of carrying 92 passengers on its upper deck, leaving 7,375 cubic feet of cargo space on its lower level. It is equipped to fly with either the full passenger load, OP the passenger-cargo load, from New York, N. to London, England, and back, nonstop. 156 Feet Long. Its fuselage length is 156 feet, virtually the equal of the 13-story section of The Register and Trib-500 une building Its wing span is 189 feet.

That is about the equal, if turned on end, to the height of the Equitable building. Its rudder is 50 feet high, equal to a five-story building. Add to this the fact that the plane's four Pratt and Whitney Wasp engines each turn 3,500 horsepower--each developing three times the power of a standard railway Diesel engine. An Idea. And that its cargo space is equal to the biggest Pullman car ever built, plus the largest railroad boxcar, the biggest flatcar -and a passenger bus-and you have an idea of the immensity of this air giant.

With all this, the huge plane still has most of the comforts of commercial aviation--and some that commercial aviation hasn't adopted. Its passenger facilities are pressurized (so altitude is not bothersome) sound-proofed. There are glare lighting, exno tra-large windows, reclining chairs, men's lounge and women's powder rooms (for the WAVES. and flight nurses) and a galley (kitchen) large enough to serve 300 hot meals a flight.
