U.S. COAST GUARD CELEBRATES ITS 167TH BIRTHDAY This month the United States Coast Guard celebrates its 167th birthday. Qn Aug. 4 -this small but efficient branch of the armed forces started its 168th year with more men--and more jobs to be done--than at any time in its recent history. The 30.000 mark in coast guard strength was reached just a month ago, bringing the outfit to its greatest size since the personnel cutback following thfe hostilities in Korea. Jobs for the Coast Guard, on the other, hand, have been piling up with inexorable sureness month after month. There are many times when the Coast Guard could use the over 100,000 officers men which were in that service during World War II. Hurricanes and the countless thousands of small boats which operate during the summer months add to the duties of coast-guardsmen during the warm months of the year. In winter, storms and ice breaking operations bring more work to the officers and men on duty on the Great Lakes and both seacoasts. These seasonal operations are in addition to the hundreds of routine duties assigned to the Coast Guard--duties which range from weather patrol on the sleek' white cutters to the lonely vigil of men assigned to the isolated light stations qn all the navigable waters of 'fee United States as well as iii thti Hawaiian Islands, Alaska ana .Puerto Rico.
