 Alaska Coastal Airlines' seaplane feet totaled seven today with ad- dition of a new Grumman flying boat which took off on the Ketchi- kan route this morning.
 Sheldon Simmons and O. F. Ben ecke flew the plane from Grumman Aircraft Engineering Corporation's New York factory in March. Since then the airship has been re-out- fitted for the Ketchikan run.

For the first time since lift ing of wartime restrictions, AGA can accommodate all summer fish ing parties, Benecke added.
 The new plane is ACA's second Grumman. The first went into op- eration last July.

WASHINGTON, April 19.-The American Society of Newspaper Editors may consider today or to- morrow recommendation that this country's private press edit and if nance a. daily spot news report for distribution abroad as part of the governments information pro- gram.
 The proposal was being discus ed widely among the newspaper executives as they entered the sec ond day of the Society's annal convention here. Its chance of ap- proval remained uncertain.
 One prominent publisher, unwill- ing to permit use of his name at this time on the ground that he is not the author of the plan, said it would provide test on how far the newspapers are willing to go in keeping the government out of the business of distributing news abroad
 CThe term "spot news in jour nalistic language covers day-by- day developments, as entrusted to background news, which furn- ishes the history leading up to a current developmentD
 Should such a recommendation gain approval, there would remain the question of obtaining approval from the publishers who would bear the cost, of setting up method for financing it, and of establishing staff and a system for collecting and editing the news.
