BREWSTER |S TARGET NOW
 OF CHARGES
Hughes Testifies Senator Offered 10 Make "Deal"
 with Him-Laiter Denies

WASHINGTON, Aug. 6. - lP- With both under oath, Howard Hughes charged and Senator Brew ster (R-Me.) denied today that the Senator once offered a deal" to call off a Senatorial inquiry into Hughes warplane contracts. Brewster took the stand before a Senate War Investigating Subcom- mittee a few minutes after Hughes had made the charge before the same group. Hughes said the Maine Senator made such a proposition to him in Ia Washington hotel the week of Feb. II, 1947. Brewster offered, he declared, to have the hearings dropped if he, Hughes, would agree to merger of the Trans World Airlines, which he controls, with Pan American Air ways.
 Brewster, calling this "a proposi- tion that sounds more like Holly wood than Washington. told the committee solemnly: s T can assure you that I never did"
 wster said he entertained Hughes at a luncheon in his hotel apartment and paid $880 out of my own pocket
 This remark as to the cost ob- viously was a reference to the testi- mony of John Meyer, Hughes pub licity man, that he spent large sums entertaining government officials.
 Alluding to the Hughes charges, Brewster said:
 Tt seems inconceivable to me that anyone could seriously contemplate that anyone who has been in public life a slong as I have-in the State Legislature, as Governor, in the House and the Senate-could. on such short acquaintance with Hughes make so bald proposi- ton as he here describes.
 Tt sound more like Hollywood than it does Washington
 Pausing for few seconds, Brew sters said:
 T can assure you that never did"

Says Juvenile Delinquency
 In Alaska Is Alarming, with
 Trend of Dangerous Nature

SEATTLE, Aug. 6-tR-"A very dangerous trend" in Alaskan ju- venile delinquency. sometimes with violent manifestations, was report ed today by Howard E. Polleys, child psychologist who formerly was with the New York police de- partment.
 He returned to the states yester- day after a year of teaching at Matanuska and juvenile consultant work with the Anchorage police.
 Children are in the way up there," he said Parents farm them out to homes where they can run wild. just so they the parents) can take positions where they can make more money
 In the absence of proper recrea- tion facilities. he said, the prob lem children were indulging in car thefts. He told of one case in which four 14-year-olds stole a jeep and then chopped it up with an ax so they wouldn't be found out"
 The Territory is without reform atory or correctional institutions.
