CANADIAN PLANE
 EDOWN IN N. H.
Damaged Slightly in Forced Landing-NOne
 of Airmen Injured

Greenland, N. H., Oct. 2.-Oct. 2.-(UP)--Four crew-members eS- capped Injury and Royal Canadian Air Force bomber was damaged slightly in Q forced landing in e field north of here early today, accord ing to Police Chief Earl w. CaSwell
 The occupants were taken to Portsmouth navy yard hospital where they were held temporarily aS Q precautionary measure.
 The names of the men were giv- en as: Flight It. Douglas, Pilot Sgt Fulton, Sgt. Roy and c fourth named Bond, whose rating was not known The plane itself was mot badly damaged"
 Shortly before 1t crashed in the field on Gilbert T'hompSon's farm off Wlnnicut road, the bomber had been circling over Portsmouth and dropped several flares in an appar- ent attempting to spot a landing place.
 It crashed less than a mile from Caswell's home and he was one oi the first to reach the scene.
 The propeller and undercarriage were said to have been crumpled but the plane was otherwise un- damaged.
 A cordon was thrown about the bomber within an hour by a detail of soldiers from Fort Constitution at Portsmouth. They prohibited al. from going within a half-mile of the ship.
 Early arrivals at the scene tolc newsmen that the plane carried two bombs in her left rack, but none in her right, indicating she was on North Atlantic patrol. Lack of gasoline caused the forced land ing.
 The plane landed about 10 miles from the coast on a 100 acre field owned by Gilbert Thompson, Green land farmer. Considerable ground was furrowed by the plane which apparently landed with a heavy but not dangerous impact. Her pro- pellers and undercarriake were crumpled but the plane otherwise was undamaged.
 Navy intelligence officers saic officials were waiting until the men have had "a good rest" before ques. tioning them about the mishap.

NEW PROBLEMS
 FACE ICELANDERS
Military Invasion Provides Them-People Trusting
 On Americans, British

ReykJavik, Iceland, Oct. 2-(Up) Premier Hermann JonasSon of Iceland said today that British and American occupation had thrust be- wildering problems upon his 10000 people, increased their living costs 70 per cent, disrupted their foreign trade and caused "a certain num- Der of unfortunate incidents"
 There are many difficulties" he said in an interview, but with the cooperation Of everybody here we will be able to live through them.
 "The British are fighting Q battle for good faith among nations and the blood 0 ftheir sons is being spent in this fight that nations will keep their promises. Why, then, should we doubt their word2"
 ct was disclosed yesterday that United States soldiers had joined marines and sailors in 1celand).
 JonaSson, Q former wrestler who retains a trim physique, said the greatest immediate problem involv- cd the relations of thousands of soldiers and Icelandic women, and It was here that the unfortunate incidents" had occurred.
 The situation IS comparable, he said, to l6.000000 soldiers being dumped inthe vicinity of London.
 He said he had little hope that the occupation would result in perma- nent improvements. Roads were In the worst condition in the islands history, he said, because of heavy military traffic.
 The outstanding economic prob- lem was the dislocation of foreign markets for herring and codflsh, he said. Formerly, most of the island ers' catch was shipped to Spain and Italy.
 He said the labor shortage was acute, that army authorities were paying such high wages that farm- CTS were deserting their land.
 Some groups fear that the British and Americans will have no further interest in Iceland when the war ends, and that prosperity will col- lapse.
 But we don't judge nations by a few incidents" he said. We have great admiration for the way the American army and Marines work.

ONLY ONE AGENCY
 SEEKS D. J. LEARY
F. B. l., Treasury Dept, In. ternal Revenue Agent
 Not Involved

If federal agencies are partici- pating in the search for Daniel j. Ieary, missing former city official then the hunt Is being conducted without the knowledge of the New Haven office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the U. s. Treasury Department or the Internal Rev. enue Agent.
 All three have admitted to The Democrat that they have no con- nectiea with the case, ard that no federal agencies to the best Of their knowledge, are involved. The search, they said, Is being carried on exclusively by the Connecticut etate police under Commissioner Edward J. Hickey.
 J. T. Madigan, head of the New Haven P. B. Ic stated that the bu- reau has no concern with the case gince the crime of which the for Tner controller was convicted does not come within their jurisdiction The ?, B. I. deals only with of- lenses such as Kidnapping, burglary and statutory sex violations, in which the criminal has gone from one state Into another.
 Neither the United States Treas- ury Department, nor Thomas Doyle, Internal Revenue Agent ir charge, would acknowledge that either department was taking part aa the hunt.
 It was thought that possibly one or the other might have been en- gaged, because of civil action taken hy the government for allegedly unpaid income taxes due for the years 1883 through 1887. Tax liens have been filed against property belonging to Leary. and litigation an United States District Court Is currently pending.
 Until Q judgment has been se- cured against the one-tirne official at was indicated, the government as without authority to employ itS agents in the search for Leary. In the exent of such an occurrence however, the fugitive could be charged with income tax evasion and be subject to prosecution on that count, provided he were not apprehended, or failed to return ir the interim,
