CAB HEARING
RESULTS In
new ACTION
Arguments and Deductions
Made on Last Day in
NorthIand's Case

WASHINGTON, Nov. IA COM
plete survey of the Alaska air facili-
ties may result from efforts Of the
Civil Aeronautics Board to arrange
new service to the Orient.
Public Counsel Russell r. Bern
hard suggested during oral argu-
ments on applications for Pacific
routes. that the board must consider
the effect Of any new certification
on the operations of the many flying
services in the Territory.
The boards examiners have rec
commended that Alaska Airlines be
authorized to fly between Seattle
and Anchorage, where 1t would con-
meet with recommended North
west Airlines route across the Aleu-
tians to the Orient.
Bernhard said Alaska's develop
ment requires an Alaska-Se
connection in addition to Pan Am
erican, which now operates to sew
eral Alaskan cities. He conceded the
ability of most domestic applicants
but expressed belief an Alaska based
line would be a better selection.
To the argument that an Alaska
line could not afford to equip for
peak loads. he suggested 1t could
lease equipment for heavy traffic
periods or that Pan American could
handle the overflow.
Questioned by Board Member
Harllee Branch, Bernhard said GER
tification of an Alaska carrier for
the profitable Seattle traffic I'M
doubtedly would hurt some of the
other carriers.
THE board" he added, may have
to determine whether the preserva-
ton of the smaller companies is a
handicap to the development Of n
sound Alaskan service"
Hugh w. Darling. attorney for
Western Airlines, told the board he
believed the recently concluded Can
adam agreement was broad enough
to permit an extension Of WAL from
Lethbridge to Edmonton and Cal
gary. Alta, and probably to permit
transfer OF passengers between
American flag lines at Edmonton.
The two countries, he acknowledged.
would have to consent to modifica-
ton of the agreement.
The six-day hearing ended yester-
day There was no indication how
soon a decision might be forth
coming.

Fewer Ships, Planes,
More Bases Sought
By Navy This Year
Ey the Associated Press.

Ey the Associated Press.
Rejecting all-out warfare in the
Pacific, the Nays 1945 procurement
program calls for more ordnance,
more supply items and more ad-
vance base construction, and fewer
ships and planes.
While the value of airplane ac-
ceptances projected for 1945 was
estimated at $3,166, 100000, against
s2,953, ,0OO, 900 in 1914, the number of
units was set at 28,591 against 80
070 for 1914.
The discrepancy was explained
principally by an increase in tao
tical combat craft from 26, ,401 units
in 1914, valued at S2,705, 100000, to
27.7O4 units in 1945 valued at $3,-
083. 100000.
Projecting the Navy's procurement
target for the current calendar
year, Secretary Forrestal told his
news conference yesterday present
estimates total SIS 404 ,600,0 900 as
against 1928, 100000 for 1914.
The number of ships of all types
expected to be added to the fleet
during l945 is 24,396, valued at
s4,954,0OO, 900, as against 29,777 in
1914, valued at s6,915 900, 900. The
1945 tonnage was estimated at
3,596,000 tons, against 5,419, 900 last
year.
A cut of more than so per cent
In the number of combatant ships,
from AIS commissioner last year to
206 expected to join the fleet this
year, was explained by the Secre-
tary as rejecting the previously
announced sharp cutback in de-
stroyer escort production.
In tonnage and value of COM
batant craft no such sharp reduc-
ton was shown. Combatant tonnage
commissioned in 1914 totaled 1,273,-
900, valued at s2,939 100000, and
1945 estimates were placed at 1,116,-
900 tons, valued at $2,53l 900 ,0OO
Secretary Forrestal said the esti-
mates are of course subject to the
shifts and changes required by ext
gencieS of war.
1t Is the Navys goal he said, to
maintain the tremendous margin"
In power the Navy now has.

 Case Today

A further extension of time for perfecting an appeal to the State Supreme Court of Errors in Hartford was sought by Public Defender Ed ward T. Carmody in motion filed in superior court today in behalf of Francis Zukauskas, condemned slayer of Mrs. Stephanie Plungis.
 The defense attorney asks for an extension until March 27 to file a draft-finding. a request for finding, and the transcript of evidence. The deadline originally was Feb. p, but an extension was later given until tomorrow, which also is the day as- singed for special hearing in the high court on request for use of state funds.
 Public Defender Carmody and States Attorney William B. Fitz- gerald are scheduled to appear in the high court tomorrow at lO:3O a. m. to present arguments on the de- fense motion for taking the appeal at the expense of the state. It has been indicated the prosecutor will not oppose the request.
 The uncertainty on funds to take the appeal has been given as req son for the delay in completing the papers.
 ZaukauSkas was convicted Feb. 8 on a first degree murder charge for the staying of Mrs. Plungis on Nov 1. and was sentenced to die April 20 in the electric chair at Whethersfield State prison. Mrs. Plungis' bullet-ridden body was found Nov. { in a shallow grave near a Middlebury bridle path. after Zu- kauskas confessed the staying to To- cal police.
 The three judges who conducted the trial, Judge Frank P. McEvoy, Judge John H. King, arc Judge Howard Alcorn. will rule on the mo- tiop for extension of time.

POLICE REMEMBER
 FORGOTTEN MANI
Recollection of Previous Record Brings Jail Sen-
 tenCe of 30 Days

The much- h-heralded "Eorgotter. Man" so often extolled in mise- rare" by Henry Wallace made his appearance in city court today in the form of bedraggled, woe-be- gone individual who sat glumly and daZedly in the detention pen of the court room.
 So forgotten was this Forgotten Man" that upon conclusion of pre- ceding cases the city prosecutor in- formed Judge T. E. Conway that no further business was before the court, whereupon spectators, wit nesses and officials arose for ad- journment.
 Officer Joseph Garvey who has an ever-warm heart for all For gotten-Men' hastily informed that jurist that the individual was still in the pen, case untried. Adjourn ment proceedings were rescinded and a recess called instead.
 With the true stociSm and long suffering philosophy shown by all members of his dismal fraternity the Forgotten Man remained seated in the detention pen, throughout the proceedings unper- turbed, unexcited perhaps concern ed only with the baffling wonder of who had hit him last night with that soft axe.
 Judge Conway remanded him to jail on drunkenness charge and ordered psychiatric examination.
