Ironically, it is sometimes suicide tool for persons who lock themselves in a garage with the automobile motor running, pouring the gas into the air. It was one of several space travel problems considered today by a session of the American Institute of Biological Sciences, concerned with providing a livable space ship environment Carbon monoxide kills' by taking the place of oxygen in the blood. When enough is present, it kills literally by asphyxiation as surely as if its victim had been smothered, explained Dr. 'Emmett W. "Chapelle of the Martin Company's Re search Institute for Advanced Study.

"Man, like all living organ isms, and even the electrical systems and fuel burning units in a rocicet ship, produces this gas. Since the rocket ship is sealed against the deadly emp uness space, tne gas can accumulate to deadly concen trations in time. Bumpy Block Blamed on Truck Strike relief in sight for motorists wha have been jos tling over a block-long section of dug up pavement at Broad way and Patton St. for the past two weeks. The Callagher Burk Co who hold a contract for the $48,928 channelization project, said a strike by drivers of ready-mix concrete trucks has brought work at the busy intersection to a standstill.

A. H. Foster, a vice presi dent at the construction firm, said surfacing had been re moved in preparation for re placing the two present islands with three concrete islands. before the islands and curbings could be poured, he said, the ready-mix drivers struck. He added that it is impossi ble to lay the new highway surfacing until the concrete islands and curbs are in.

The work was halted a week ago. The project is designed to expedite traffic on Broadway and still permit autoists to turn from Broadway to go north on Patton St. in weeks at the Eileen Feather Salon gomg to write about.

They could call it the 'Best of David Problems exist everywhere, I told him. I explained about Lu Hurley and his dog, Myrtle, and how everyone in TV in the Bay Area was saddened because Myrtle died the other day at age 18. "That's tough, all right," my friend agreed. "I suppose you're a great dog lover." "Heck no," I said, "but if you'd ever caught Lu Hurley doing his commercials youfd realize the dbg was the whole act. What'll Hurley do now?" He shook his headland looked more gloomy than before.

I decided on a new tack to cheer him up. I told him this coming season looks better than last season. What makes you think it'll be better?" "Well," I said, "there'll be more comedy, more adventure, more drama, more documentary specials, and fewer westerns and fewer situation comedies." jSI guess that's all good," said my friend, "but speaking of Milton Berle, you know his bowling show won't be back." "I know. Are you bowling fan?" "Heck, no," he said, "but the other day Berle said that in his 29 half-hour shows last season he set bowl-; ing back 20 years, and if they'd given him another 10 shows he could have gotten rid of the sport altogether." "They should give him 10 more shows." "Right. But there are some cheerful aspects.

We finally got rid of Bat Masterson and Bringing Up Buddy, and pretty soon Whispering Smith and Gun-slinger will be dumped." "Right," I said, "and out here they dropped that Five Star Jubilee thing." "Do you suppose," my friend asked, "that network executives are finally getting some sense? Suppose there's any chance they'll dump Art Linkletter after all these years, and some of the idiotic kiddie shows and The Price Is Right?"

Baldwin announced today in Washington, C. He said FHA Commissioner Neal Hardy informed him that the staff increase has been authorized as well as the hiring of temporary employees by the day and the assign ment of 2,250 cases to fee ap praisers.

INSUFFICIENT HELP John F. Pendergast, di rector of the FHA insuring of fice in San Francisco, said the backlog built up over sev eral months because he had been unable to hire sufficient personnel Builders and lenders have been delayed up to 90 days be cause their applications for home and apartment bouse loans were not processed speedily, Pendergast said. The office has 4,872 applications pending from 17 Northern and Central California counties it serves. Of these, 2,337 came in since the first of the month, Pendergast added. IMMEDIATE GOAL "Our immediate goal is to cut the processing time to 30 davs and ultimately to 14 days," Pendergast said.

The San Francisco office of the agency previously had 191 employees. Congressman Baldwin had pressed for action in Washing ton to break the bottleneck in home financing in this area. 6 Forest Fifes Out; 4 Weary Fiqhters Hurt Rain showers and hard work have halted the last of six Northern California forest fires More than 1,000 weary fire fighters were coming off the lines today at the fire site on the Hoopa Indian Reservation in Six Rivers National Forest near Eureka Thev worked eight days That fire, slowed py rams Saturday, was controlled by ground crews ana cnenucai- dropping airplanes bunoay at 6 p.m. Damage to Umber and watersheds was estimaiea ai 529,000.

He said the Army Quarter master Corps also is working on an irradiation food process ing program. Foods given high doses of radiation can be preserved without refrigeration for months or years, he said Thus, men in the field could have fresh fish.
