Neumann Changes Plea 10 Guilty on One Count
 Criminal Gases End

First acquittal verdict ir any criminal action tried at the present term of the U. s. District Court here was brought in yesterday af- ternoon by the jury sitting on the case against four Petersburg fisher men alleged to have violated com mercial fishing regulations.
 After less than one hour of delib- eration, the jurors reported that they had agreed and the Court was called back into session to hear the ver- dict. as submitted by Jury Foreman Charles o. Sabin. Each of the four defendants, Kurt Nordgren, Richard Harris, Harold Stolpe and Oscar Burman was found mot guilty"
 The Court was convened yesterday afternoon at o'clock, at which time Judge George F. Alexander deliver ed his instructions to the jurors. following which the jury retired to consider a verdict.
 The acquittal completed the cur rent criminal calendar as Warren Neumann, merchant seaman, whose trial on two counts of burglary in a dwelling was to open today, chang ed his plea to guilty on the second count. The Government then dis missed the first count of the indict- ment against him. Neumann waived time for sentence, but the Court de- clared itself not prepared to give an immediate judgment.
 The District Court was open here this morning only long enough for Judge Alexander to excuse the petit jury panel until 10 o'clock on the morning of May T. Criminal pro- ceedings still to be considered by the Court at this term include mo- tions for new trial filed in three cases where guilty" verdicts have already been returned. They are: The United States vs Maude Ander- son, convicted on White Slave charge; the United States vs. Lois Rouse, convicted of polygamy and nine counts Of fraudulently receiving soldiers family allowance, and Wini- fred and Horace lbach, convicted of Kidnapping, assault with a dangerous weapon and burning a gasboat.
 The charge to which Neumann pleaded guilty was that of break ing and entering. with intent to com init larceny therein, the residence of Frank Donaldson in the Earl apartments, in Juneau, during the night, on May 26, 1944. Neumann was apprehended by Donaldson, who came home to find Neumann with two of Donalson's suitcases packed with Donalson's clothing and other articles, including dozen shirts, a suit of clothes, shaving paraphernal-

 J. V. Roscoe, Assistant Sector Manager for Pan American Airways, carried on the tourist travel in AL aska train of thought by giving some very helpful ideas along the line of constructing and advertising for tourists. "These ideas are not given as an outsider with nothing but big ideas, but as a representative of a firm which has been located in Ju- neau for 10 years and who has faith in it." He also brought the problem before the members of the proposed airport terminal facilities and sub- mitted few timely ideas for their consideration.

 HITLER IS
 HIT DIRECT
Sumpfuous Chalet Is De- stroyed by Six-ton
 Bomb

LONDON, April 26-Italy- RAF Liberators struck the German redoubt city of Freilassing last night in an explosive follow-up of the historic bombardment of Hit ler's eagle nest refuge, his chalet near Berchtesgaden.
 American and British airmen are jubilant over the coordinated strike at Hitlers hideout yesterday, when the sumptuous chalet was destroyed by a direct hit of a six-ton bomb.
 Freilassing, road and railway junction 13 miles due north of Berchtesgaden, is itself now only 72 miles ahead of the American ground troops and few miles more from Russian vanguards.
 It was disclosed $50 Lancasters were used in the strike against Hitlers properties, rather than 200 as originally reported. Two RAF planes were lost on this mission.

Kakuzu Village Reeapfur- ed-Importdnf Hill Seiz-
 ed-CasuaIties Given
By Jeff Erickson Associated Press War CorrespondenD


 GUAM, April 26-American troops, killing the Japanese at rate of about 19 to every Tank. surged ahead on southern Okinawa yes- terday in the first general ad- vance reported since the big push started week ago.
 The recapture of Kakuzu village, center of a stiff line, and the seizure of another important ele- vation on the east coast, is re- ported by Admiral Chester w. Nimitz, whose communique also listed 2l,269 Japanese dead and 299 prisoners taken in the Okinawa campaign as of yesterday.
 The Japanese casualties are esti- mated to be about one-third of the enemy garrison on Okinawa. This compares with the announced Am erican dead of LAG in ground fighting up to last Sunday mid night. In addition, the Tank toll includes 5,982 wounded and 296 missing. The total does not in- clude American or Japanese naval casualties.
 Supported by heavy naval gum fire and low-level air raids, three American Divisions pushed slowly through the toughest defense line encountered in the Pacific war.
 Kakuzu village, recaptured by the Twenty-Seventh Division, had been abandoned by the Americans five days ago under heavy mortar fire from nearby ridges.
 The important elevation seized is Hill IFS, the strong-point over looking the Yonabaru airfield.
