    61 far from solution. The difficulties of acquiring land and financing for this costly project appeared overwhelming. Mean- while, fuel tankers continued to make their noisy take-offs over Honolulu. The airport hoped there would be a technical development that would eliminate the need for this flight path. Highlights July 1, 1962 The Hawaii Visitors Information Program was established to welcome passengers at Honolulu International Airport and Honolulu Harbor, to encourage travel to the Neighbor Islands, and to provide information and other help to airport and harbor visitors. As of June 30, 1963, the staff of the HVIP consisted of 33 full-time and nine part-time employees. July 10, 1962 The widening of Taxiway X and restoration of P Road with a crossing over a new drainage ditch was com- pleted at a cost of $113,463.82. July 22, 1962 The Empress of Lima, a four-engine Britannia jet turboprop, crashed at 11:19 p.m. and burned while making an approach to Runway 8 on the Hickam Field portion of the airport. Twenty-seven persons were killed and 13 survived. It was the worst civil air carrier accident in the Islands’ history. The Air Force Fire Department acted promptly to minimize loss of life. Personnel of the Airport, Navy and City and County assisted in fighting the fire, maintaining order, and pro- viding ambulances and other services. The crash dramatically showed the need for continued cooperation between the Air Force and the airport. Several meetings were held after the crash and a number of suggestions developed for further improvement of the pattern for teamwork.

D.C. 2054s February 6, 1970 Dear Mr. President: It was an honor to be named by you to membership on the President’s Commission on an All-Volunteer Armed Force. I looked forward to serving on this Commission because it confronts an extremely important issue. Unfortunately, a combination of a minor illness in December and an operation at the beginning of January prevented my participating in the last five Commission meetings during which specific recommendations and various drafts of the report were discussed. Because I was able to play only a small part in its shaping I did not feel it was proper for me to sign the report, and advised the Chairman, Thomas Gates, accordingly in late December. I am writing now to express my regret at not being able to sign this report. Although I have been unable to share in its specific recom- mendations, I would like to endorse the basic idea of moving towards an all-volunteer armed force, and to express my hope that you will be able to take steps in the near future to reduce reliance on conscription.
