Instructions were given to. the ‘Air Canada passengers to hold wet towels against their faces and to crawl on the floor under the toxic fumes. o

~ Some survivors of the fire have said the towéls saved their lives. Ray Grubbs of Dallas, Tex,, told the inquiry the wet towel acted like a filter and helped tremendously. He held it to his face for just a few seconds and “if we had been ‘on that aircraft-a few more seconds, I wouldn’t be here ” today.” .

The congressional inquiry is dealing, in part, -with the Cincinnati tragedy in which 23 passengers died on the Air Canada DC-9, However, Wednesday's testimony ‘by the ~wunlon-dealt with the general need for stricter training _ Standards among U.S. airlines...

_ STANDARDS POOR

“Accusing the U.S.: Federal Aviaiton Administration, of imposing poor training standards on the airline industry, Saito said some flight attendants are taught how-to fight a fire by reading a manual. Sonie have never seen an alr- ’ plane evacuation chute, let alone practised the emergency

procedure of Inflating one and helping passengers down.

Moreover, only 16 hours of initial fist-aid and emergency training and between six and 12 hours‘of annual retraining naw is required. Oxygen masks are not.given to flight at- tendants during fires.

Saito aleo sald airlines do not foree flight attendants to

-. stay on an aircraft until the passengers are all out during a . Gsaster, “It is not required that’ we give our lives for our 4 jobs. ”

Inquiry chairman ‘Elliott Levitas (D-Ga.) said: ‘the ~ powerful testimony of the nitional union shows the stan: dard of training is so terrible that protection during airline disasters “Is nothing more than cosmetic.”.
