STEPS TAKEN TO SAFEGUARD IVA
 AIR NAvIGAT0R5

NEWCASTLE, Delaware, March l5-tR-The disappearance of an airline navigator four miles above the Atlantic is holding the at tention of Civil .Aeronautics Board investigators.
 A crew member, who says he was the only one who could have seen the accident, insists he never act ually saw the navigator disappear. Those are the words of Dick Trischler of Pittsburgh, the flight engineer on the New York-to- Gen eva Trans World Airline Constella- tion.
 The mishap occurred 800 miles east of Gander, Newfoundland, on Monday night The crew landed the aircraft at Gander, patched up the broken pastic bubble atop the plane, and flew to Newcastle without the 2l passengers it had carried.
 Meanwhile, IVA has moved swiftly to prevent. possible similar tragedies. The Airline has order ed plexiglass domes strengthened on all it's planes.
 In addition, navigators are to wear a safety harness while talk ing observations in the dome, and Consultations are to fly at 12,OOC | feet or less, and thus use only normal air pressure.

German Leaders To Settle Alaska

DENVER, CP)-A proposal that members Of the German general staff be 'resettled" in Alaska has been made by Dr. Hans w. Rosen- haupt, assistant professor of Ger man at Colorado college.
 The professor, a former captain with the United States military in- tclIgence in Germany, said such leaders are now loose" in Ger many with nothing to do but think up trouble"
 He described them as a "poten- t.al threat to our security and said such resettlement would turn their energies to doing a job that needs to be done" Dr. Rosenhaupt, a native of Germany, came to the United States in 1895 and joined the staff of Colorado College three years later. During the war he in terrogated captured German pilots.

 Break Silence!

LAKE SUCCESS, N. Y. CHJ - The United Nations Satuday was in the unusual position of having a sellout on its hands without knowing whether the star of the show - Andrei A. Gromyko - would speak his lines.
 More than 5000 overflow appli- cations for seats to Monday 5 S.- curity council meeting already have been rejected, the JUN. press division reported. The counci. chamber seats only 5l4 spectators and all tickets were exhausted las, Wednesday.
 The U. N. added that nearly all written and telephone requests were accompanied by the com ments that the applicants wanted to hear Gromyko answer"
 Included in those holding seats were at least one Congressman, Rep. Gary D.-VaD and 100 West Point cadets who are students in international relations.
 Meanwhile the usual secrecy surrounded Russian plans and GrOmyko, deputy foreign minister and council delegate, turned aside queries as to whether he would speak with: No comment"

B-29 Lands Safely: One Engine Gone

FAIRFIELD, Calf. (P)-A B-29 weather observation plane for which air-Sea rescue units were alerted off the Pacific northwest coast came in to a perfect landing at Fairfield-Suisun army airbase yesterday after more than seven hours flight with one engine out.
 It. R. C. Johnson of Monroe, La, the pilot, said the trouble de ycloped shortly after noon, when the plane was six hours out of An chorage and about 900 miles northwest of Seattle. One engine went out. "The propeller wind milled for a while before it broke off the shaft and disappeared" he said.
 In falling it struck the propeller of the other port engine, word inn mediately was radioed that two engines were out. That the plane would head for Seattle, and asking that air-rescue service be alerted.
 When it became apparent later that the second engine was all right, Johnson said, the decision was made to continue to the home base at Fairfield because "everything was functioning under control"
 The entire flight was or insuN- ments until the plane reached Shelter Cove on the northern Cal icornia coast, less than an hour be- fore the landing here

Sec'ys Bevin And Marshall Confer

MOSCOW, (P)-British foreign secretary Ernest Bevin conferred with Secretary of State George C. Marshall for 90 minutes over luncheon at SpassO House today.
 They were believed to have dis cussed the progress of the council of foreign ministers to date, to- gether with possible future moves.
 At the same time, the councils coordinating committee was put ting laSt-minute touches on a re- port for today's council session on the subject of Germany's future provisional government.
 There was some speculation that if the discussion of this report was finished in time, the ministers might be able to begin a discussion of German frontiers.
 In the meeting of deputy for eign ministers, working on the Austrian peace treaty today, the Russians lined up with the United States against British and French demands for compensation from Austria for war damage to proper ty of the United Nations and their citizens.
 The British and French deputies insist on compensation at the rate of tWo-thirds of the full value of damaged property, which some in- formants estimate would cost Aus tria about S2O,OOO,OOO,OOO The Americans contend this would hamper the economic rehabilita- tion of the country.
 Some western diplomats predict ed that if the big four foreign min isters fail to agree on Germany as it appears they may-the United States and Britain would make new efforts to pull the French into the existing American-B British eco homie merger of German Occupa- ton zones.
