Goal Of Guatemala Engineer Is National Air Ambulance
Washington—(U.P.)—William F. Samayoa wants medicine and doctors put on wings so they can get to more people faster.
Mr. Samayoa thinks the matter more urgent than ever, now that people are wondering about civilian defense against atomic attack.
So Mr. Samayoa is pounding one government doors and persistently advancing his 10-year-old dream of a national air ambulance service to be financed like other group health and hospitalization plans. Eventually, he would like to see it take on international scope.
Nothing but encouragement has met his efforts but you can't run even a non-profit, humanitarian enterprise on encouragement alone.
The Guatemala-born aeronautical engineer and language instructor believes the Civil Air Patrol, which has wings in every state, is a proper framework within which to build an ambulance service using helicopters and hospital planes.
"Somebody has to fight for this," the engineer said. "To stop now would be like swimming 10 miles and drowning 10 feet from shore."
Without committing itself, the Air Force has written Mr. Samayoa an encouraging letter. He carries it wiil dozens of others. One is from Cleaner Roosevelt suggesting he be sent to Ariane Airlines, Inc. Another is from Thomas W. Ryan, New York state director of safety, introducing him to the Mayo Clinic and emphatically stating he is "NO crackpot."
The helicopters and airplanes could perform pinpoint rescues at train wrecks, aircraft accidents, on mountain peaks and in otherwise inaccessible places.
He proposes that a national air ambulance service be established with the first financing from fund-raising campaigns and the government. He believes charitable organizations, hospitalization schemes, labor unions, industrial enterprises and flat fees from non-members would keep it well profitable.
They would be invaluable in disasters, epidemics or in mining communities where other means of rescue frequently fail. In case of atomic attack they would be a means of evacuating wounded and dead and getting doctors and supplies.
They could take patients from small towns to hospitals in large cities.
"This plan could mean co-ordinated nation-wide medical service," Mr. Samayoa says. "And the wounded or ill could be transported much more smoothly and rapidly."
More than 1,000,000 persons are injured, 100,000 of them permanently In automobile accidents every year. Some 30,000 are killed. There are 22,000,000 subscribers to various hospitalization plans and 10 per cent use the facilities made available every year. There are 150,000,000 Americans.
Mr. Samayoa deduces that probably 150,000 persons would use his ambulances the first year.
The scheme might cost $10,000-000 to $15,000,000 annually, but he is confident it could be made to pay. The Minnesota house of representatives endorsed the plan in a resolution several years ago.
Gael Sullivan, when exeive director of the Democratic national committee, mentioned the plan to President Truman, Samayoa said, and the reaction was that "opposing it is like opposing virtue."
When Mr. Holt wounded a 200-pound eight-point buck in the foreleg, he couldn't chase it with his gun under the Bent Mountain Hunting club rules, so he went for it bare handed.

When the deer turned and charged, Mr. Holt picked up a stick and stunned it, wrestled it to the ground, and killed it with a knife stab in the heart. Two prongs of the deer's antlers snapped off in the wind threshing, Mr. Holt said.
