At the same time, he said, com bat capabilities of the armed forces are being improved. Kyes noted, in an address be fore the Adcraft Club here, that it has been just 10 months since Secretary of Defense Charles E. Wilson and himself took over responsibility for managing the mil itary establishment. ADEQUATE DEFENSE But in listing samples of savings that have been made and citing improvement in efficiency in the services, Kyes specniea: "I want to make it perfectly plain that your Defense Depart ment management team of mili tary and civilians is clearly aware that its real job is to provide our nation with a completely adequate defense system.

"Neither we nor you have the slightest intention of trading na tional safety for dollars, untaxed. unappropriated or unspent Tax dollars which pay for waste contribute exactly nothing to na tional defense." Kyes said: "We are improving weapons de velopment and weapons evaluation both individually and as complex systems, so that we may advantage of the most modern technology in implementing strategic plans." NO DETAILS GIVEN He did not detail the improve ments in weapons. Kyes had particular praise for the "outstanding accomplishment" of the Air Force in improving or ganization and efficiency. The Navy, said Kyes, "is mak ing much progress toward a more effective utilization of the funds available to them for "creating greater combat capability." As an example of improved Army efficiency, Kyes said the manpower strength of an Army infantry division is being reduced by about 600 "but by converting approximately 500 service (support) jobs within the division, its firepower is increased by 81 machine guns anf 18 recoilless rifles." Keyes disclosed that the new. heavy B52 bomber is "faster" than even the swift medium B47, which has flown 656 miles an hour.

CASUAL REMARK He dropped that casual remark while saying that progress in get ting the huge, eight-jet Boeing bomber into production is "excel lent." The first production models will be delivered late next year, he said. The Defense Department and Air Force had refused previously to indicate the speed of the "Strato-fortress," saying only it was a "high speed" bomber. The B52 has a wing span of 185 feet, a length of 153 the six-jet B47's wing span is 116 feet, its length 106. Lasf Year's Quakes Force Hospital Wing Evacuation BAKERSFIELD The ef fects of the earthquakes that struck here a year ago last sum mer are still being felt. Officials -at the Kern County Gen eral Hospital Friday ordered evacuation of the institution's three- story service wing after 18 months of assurances it was safe for oc cupancy.

A spokesman said demolition of other quake-damaged wings may have w-eakened the service wing, which houses a pathological laboratory, cafeteria, nursing and administration offices. i-1632 do 11 11H 98 98 5 5 2 70 2 70 1 1 11 11 334 3 8' 8U 11 11 9U 9i 4 4 K'i fi'i 12S, 12-i 10 'i 10 1 00 14 14'i 60 'i 60 ij 25 25 19H 193i oO'i 50'i 03 03 15i 15 423i 42-i .80 .80 1 25 125 4i 4'i 19 19'i 7-, 7' 4 4H 20 20 3i 3i.i 34 34 13i 13i 3 3'i 5 5 23'i 22i 22S 24 24 6H 6' 41 41 75 75 51 53-ii 20H 20'i 2474 24'i 61 61 19 20 25 25 i 8Vi 8Vi 17 17 27Ti 27 414 4 19 lfl 39 39 13 13 .07 .07 treasurer, Mrs. Grace L.

Harley A.

Smith of the police department traffic division, released Friday. Fifteen of the J7 accidents involved injuries, four involved pedestrians, there was one fatality and 36 were listed as non-injury. Two persons suffered major injuries and 19 minor injuries. Of the 43 accidents recorded in November 1952, there were 12 involving injuries, two fatalities, two involved pedestrians and 27 were listed as non-injury. In issuing his report, Lt.

Smith made a special plea to drivers for the exercise of unusual care during the current month, pointing out that last December achieved the doubtful honor of being the biggest accident month of 1952 with a to tal of 58 recorded. Tree Limbs Torn Off By Blustery Winds ONTARIO Blustery southwest breezes which visited this area Friday afternoon were responsible for downing a number of tree limbs and "hot" wires, but no serious damage, according to reports received by police and city service department attaches. Some of the limbs are said to have done slight damage to parked motor cars. The Southern California Edison Co. was called on to take charge of the live wires.

Drugs, Cash Siolen From Ontario Store ONTARIO When Frank Car- rillo opened the Campus Pharmacy, 668 E. A for business Friday morning, he discovered pools of water on the floor and investigation disclosed the skylight had been removed. A further check discovered that the place had been robbed of narcotics and cash, though the amount had not been established in either case Friday afternoon. Police, called to investigate, found that the roof of the structure had been gained with the aid of a ladder from a nearby car lot. Tar paper had been removed and a brace and bit used in removing the skylight.

The burglar had then apparently lowered himself to the ceiling and walked over joists to a trap door over a rest room through which he apparently lowered himself to the floor. Police said their investigations indicated that exit had been made by. the same route, since all doors and windows were securely fastened on the inside. Carrillo told police he was making an inventory and would let them know the amounts of narcotics and cash taken as soon as possible. The burglary is believed to have been committed prior to a rainstorm which started here about 4 a.m.
