2, W5) A sharp increase in accidental deaths among the nation's children dur ing the war period was reported today by the National Safety Congress. The council, which reported the 1943 accident toll as 94,500 killed, 9,700.000 injured and an economic loss of five billion dollars, said 11,500 children under 15 years were killed in home and public accidents last year as compared to 9300 in the pre war year of 1941. This figure represented an increase of 2200 or 23 per cent. Deadly Firepower Hakes U.S. Planes Best Defended Aircraft in World Washington, Feb.

2, New and deadly products of the Army Air Forces' armament laboratories are going into this country's planes, including the big bombers, to make them the hard est shooting and best defended aircraft in the world. An official disclosure of fire power developments in aircraft armament is producing special interest in aviation circles in view of General H. H. Arnold's recent description of the giant 29 as a "battleship of the air," armored heavily with multiple gun power turrets The discussion of aircraft guns and gun fire control development is by Col. Frank C.

Wolfe, chief of the Air Forces' armament laboratory, writing in an issue of the official publication, "Air Force." He lists a score of new develop ments or improvements on existing equipment, several of which are of interest in light of Arnold's emphasis on the gunfire potentialities of the "Superfortress." Included in Wolfe's list are thee: Hydraulic and electrically op erated gun turrets with multiple gun installations; remotely controlled and power boosted and hand held machine gun mounts; remote control of a plane's gunfire; increased firepower for nose and tail positions; improved com puting sights for all gun positions, both turret and fixed; emphasis on placement of guns to assure maximum protection. Discussing remote control of gunfire in aircraft, Wolfe says: "Aircraft fire control is a new art. This war's trend toward' a battlefield in the stratosphere has spawned heretofore untried types of aircraft armament. One solu tion is the use of remote fire con trol systems which remove the gunner from the proximity of his guns, diminishing the effects of vibration on the sighting operation and allowing for greater com fort and less fatigue for the Wolfe says that "much stress has been placed on power driven turrets for all sizes of machine guns and cannons" and that these installations and their continued improvement "have done a great deal toward commanding respect from enemy fighters." American firepower experts, having a wide range of calibers from coughs due to colds, you can easily prepare a medicine, right in your own kitchen. It's very easy needs no cooking, and tastes so good that children take it willingly.

HOTEL PTTSB running from .30 caliber machine guns to cannons now are relying on the .50 caliber gun, which, he says, "is the weapon most commonly employed in our aircraft." "In bomber types," he says, "the guns usually are mounted in pairs which are disposed from nose to tail to afford protection from every conceivable direction of attack." Our bombers, Wolfe reports, for some time have been using computing sights (to give the distance to, speed of and lead necessary for a target) and these "have forced enemy fighters to remain at a range from which itheir firepower is ineffective." Although the use of computing sights thus far have been limited to turret mounted guns, Wolfe says, "additional computing sights have been developed and placed in production for use in all other gun positions." Wolfe's article apparently was written before the Army's recent announcement of the "Flying 75." the 75 millimeter cannon mounted on a 25 Mitchell bomber on a new recoil device.
