United Air Lines
 Train .Stewordesses

More StewardeSses currently are being trained by United Air Lines than ever before in the company's history, according to R. M. Vain wright, superintendent of steward- eSs service.
 When the present class of l34 young women graduates early this month from schools in Chicago and San Francisco, the company will have trained PAS stewardesses in the first quarter of l946 as compared with PIT during the entire year of l945, Wainwright said.
 Acceleration of the training pro- gram is to provide stewardesses for Un!ted's rapidly-increasing fleet of A-pasSenger, four -engined Main- liner 230's now in service, and its 52-passenger Mainliner 300's due later this year. Each of the planes carries two stewardesses.
 Last month a total of 65 New England girls were employed as United stewardesses, 1t was an- nounced, far more than the total number of New England steward- esses employed in the entire his- tory of this oldest of all tranScont.- mental ail carriers.

;, (Continued from Page D seconds later, the ship trembled again and water began entering through an electrical cable. The Soundman reported a tremendous rush of air and propeller noises on the starboard bow.
 "As the sound grew fainter, the Founder raised her periscope. Nothing could be seen but calm seas and blue skies. Discerning no veS- sells on the surface, the captain aS- sumed he had run into Japanese submarine, and hoped 1t had sunk. !"
 When the collision occurred, the skipper of the Hoe sent his crew to battle stations and the submarine surfaced.
 Stories Tied Together
 Tt was not until late that night, when both ships reported their ac- cidents, that anyone realized exact ly what had happened" the Navy said.
 Both shippers knew their vessels were operating in adjoining areas, but neither expected the other to be in the vicinity of the collision.
 Apparently they had not picked each other up on their sound equip ment before the collision, due poS- sibly to peculiar underwater condi- tions. Evidently, they did not see each other on the surface because their periscopes were not raised simultaneously"
 The Founders hull was intact after the ramming, but her super structure had a 25-foot gash. Her gun platforms were damaged con- Siderably, and several of her air and fuel lines were bent.

Commissioner Maggiolo met Separ- ately Saturday with company and union representatives and has since been in touch with them by phone.
 A Chase settlement would prob ably bring early parleyS in the A. B. 0. strike.
 Walked Out Feb. 4
 Chase employees walked out Feb 4, after the company had declined to make any counter offers to the unions wage demands. The MINIS. w. originally demanded an increase of 30 percent, but this was subSe- quently scaled down to 18 F cents.
 The company claimed it could not increase wages because of losses resulting from higher operating costs after the war. Pay increases could be granted only if the OF A. authorized increases in the prices of brass products, the company said.
 Rumors that the Chase Company was planning wage offer proved weeks of the strike. However, after word came from Washington that the O.P.A. was authorizing increas- es averaging 1 la cents pound for brass mill products, the company notified U. s. Conciliator William Truax that it was ready to negoti- ate. A conference was held March i4 when the management submitted two alternate wage offers, neither acceptable to the union. Tempers were short during the barley. and the meeting broke up with nothing accomplished.
 Take Up Offer Issued
 At the suggestion of the union, the parties met again March 22, taking up contract issues other than wages. Meantime the union submitted a settlement proposal, offering to return to work at the pay scale proposed by management if the company would agree to are bitTntion of three Issues. The com- pany turned down thls offer last week.

Later Arrested on Several Counts; Ordered Held for Trial Thursday Morning

!, Charged with obtaining money under false pretenses after he passed six checks in various denol11t- nations totalling $05, Louis Ridden hour, l7, of 6l Bishop Street was placed into the custody of Chief Probation Officer Henry I. Begnal following arraignment before Judge John L. Gaffney in City Court this morning.
 Judge .affney ordered a continu- ance to Thursday in which time the accused will be placed under ob- servation and his background will be probed by probation officials. Bonds were set at $1,000.
 Testimony by It. Edward McElli- gott of the Detective Bureau brought to light the fact that the accused took several blank checks from various local banks, filled them out in different amounts signed his name to them and cashed them in a variety of business establishments.
 It. McElligott said that Ridden hour paid several of his debts with the worthless checks and in many instances received substantial amounts of change after the debt was deducted.
 Tn another check case, this one involving the theft of a government income tax check, John Nunnes, 43, of $50 Mill Street received a similar continuance with bonds placed at $500. Its. William Foley and Ed- ward McElligott arrested the ac- cused yesterday after he attempted to cash Q check for $119.36 which he iS alleged to have stolen from a mail box.
 Inspector Joseph R. Bendler said that the check, made out to An thony J. and Josephine Martins of 149 South Street, was signed with the Martins names by the accused who gave 1t to a local grocer. The grocer, however, said Inspector Bendler, knew Nunnes and the Mar tins and held the check for police.
