 Will Be No Delay
 "Once this lumber arrives there will be no delay in tackling the housing situation" the Mayor de- clared.

New Haven, Aug. 23 - CUP) - There was possibility today that the Democratic Party might come up with a dark horse" candidate for governor unless Chester Bowles or Wesleyan English Prof. Wilbert Snow can persuade party leaders that they are just what the doctor ordered.
 Bowles, who recently resigned as national Economic Stabilization di- rector, wants the nomination as badly as Snow, who now is leuten- ant-governor and feels he is entitled by virtue thereof of heading up the State ticket in November.
 Inner circle reports, however. have it that the party powers have 3 few other names in mind should Bowles and Snow fail to measure up. The prospects included:
 Thomas J. Dodd, assistant prose- cutor at the Nuremberg trial of German war criminals, and former special assistant U. s. attorney for Connecticut, who is expected back in this country in time for the State nominating convention Sept. 16-17.
 Beck, Griffis Named
 Thomas H. Beck, president of the Crowell Collier Publishing Com pany, former chairman of the State Board of Fisheries and Game, and who was not identified with any of the party's factions.

American officials, bearing Marshal Tito's pledge to atone for shooting down two American planes and halt further attacks, directed 8 search today for five airmen missing since their U. s. Army transport crashed Aug. I19.
 Tito was understood to, have promised Ambassador Richard C. Patterson, Jr..i yesterday that no further in-i cidents will occur between Yugoslav fighters and Ameri- can planes entering Yugo- slavia.
 The U. s Army Graves Registra- ton Commission inspected the Wreckage of the plane doWned near the Austrian frontier Aug. 19. They were expected back in Belgrade tomorrow.
 Hinges On Fate Of Airmen
 Fulfllment Of Titos promise to give the United States full satis- faction for the two frontier at- tackS on American planes hinged on the fate of five crew members involved in the second crash.
 Patterson received from Tito as-' surance of facilities for American officials to inspect the site of the Aug. Is crash. Nine men, includ- ing seven Americans, who crashed Aug g in the first incident were re- leased by the Yugoslavs yesterday and reached American headquar- ters at Gorizia.
 l Yugoslav army sources said they could find no trace of the five men aboard the plane shot down Aug. 19. They indicated an earlier of. flcial Yugoslav report that two men parachuted may have been wrong.
 (Tito told correspondents it
 should be easy to arrange speci-
 fc signals to be used in events
 planes lost or in distress are
 forced to enter Yugoslav terri
 tory. He suggested dipping one
 Wlr4g as a signal
 (Tito told correspondents he
 thought American infringement
 of the Yugoslav air was delib-
 crate to create an impression
 among the YugoslaVs that the
 force of the United States was
 so overwhelming that the Yu-
 goslav government must take
 everything.
 Releases Nine Men
 Tito's promise of satisfaction il1 reply to the American 48-hour ulti- matum was partially fulfilled yes- terday when nine men, including seven Americans, who survived the first crash Aug. were released from confinement. They were transported to Gorizia, on the Al- lied side of the Morgan Line in Venezia Giulia
 The original Yugoslav announce ment said two men were seen to parachute from the falling plane. It added that some" victims were feared to have fallen in the ensu- ing crash. This created the pre- sumption that the other three crew members were killed.
