...Force last week announced that it has ordered production to begin on its first supersonic jet bomber, the B58 Hustler. To be built at Fort Worth by Consolidated Vultee, the B58 can carry the hydrogen bomb, but will have to be based at Alaskan or overseas fields because of its relatively short range. The new medium bomber will probably not replace the 600 m.p.h. B-47 for at least two years...
...With Boeing's B-52 jet bombers now in production (TIME, July 19), the old B-36s have seen their day, will gradually be retired to a secondary role by S.A.C.

In World War II he served with the Navy, a lieutenant commander on minesweepers and destroyers in the Pacific.

Cause for Concern. Recently, Hustler Rosenstiel has tripped a few times. When other brands came back on the market in volume, Three Feathers sales slumped about 90%; last year the brand did not even place in the top 25. When grape prices skidded five years ago, Rosenstiel dropped close" to $14 million by buying at the wrong time. And when penicillin prices cracked recently, he took another beating. Rosenstiel miscalculated on another score: figuring that the public would turn back to straight whiskies after the war, he plugged his straights (I. W. Harper, Ancient Age, Old Charter) more than...
