Show Ship and Aircraft Growth Spur Safety Acts by Coast Guard Techniques for saving life and property at sea were exchanged and compared recently by some 250 representatives from 16 Pacific area nations in order to achieve greater safety at sea. The exchange of rescue knowledge took place during the four day seminar hosted by the Coast Guard. As the number of ships and aircraft have grown, so has the need for search and rescue. The it ratio of a search not is weighed when we plan know that lives are at stake, for saving lives is the common denominator of our search and rescue efforts. The Guard encouraged participation in the Automated Mutual assistance Vessel Rescue system which uses voluntary reports of ships and their planned courses in order that they may be contacted to give assistance should another vessel become distressed in their area. At present ssme 2000 vessels participatr in the pregram which is a com puterized system of keeping track of vessels throughout the world. Included in the information available by the system if whether or not a ship has a doctor cn board and could render medical assistance on another vessel. The system also makes it possible to notify ships and request their assistance in event of an aircrift ditching at sea. Under Secretary of Transportation James M.
