TranscontinentaI Run
Ended, Lighter Load
At Airport Expected

OiScontinuance of its transcon-
dnental run by the Military Air
Transport Service was expected to-
day to relieve Immediately portion
of the heavy traffic load on National
Airport.
A MATS spokesman disclosed late
yesterday that the transcontinental
service had been suspended to make
large transport planes available for
use in the Berlin air lift. The serv-
ice used % planes in eight flights
weekly between National Airport
and San Francisco.
Meanwhile, the controversy over
the effort of the Washington Board
of Trade to get military operations
out of National Airport continued
to rage with a letter to the board
from Rear Admiral John p Whit
ney, vice commander of MATS.
Boards Figures Disputed.
Admiral Whitney said a board
report on the situation was mot
in accordance with the facts" He
denied the boards report that mill
tary operations account for As per
cent of the air traffic at National
during instrument weather.
In a letter addressed to Board
President Leon Chatelain, jr., he
claimed that only 81 per cent of all
instrument landings in the Wash
ington area during April, May and
June were accounted for by military
planes landing at National.
An Air Force official admitted
today taht while MATS operations
at National had been reduced and
that it probably would be curtailed
further when the headquarters are
moved to Andrews Air Force Base
within three months, the air arm
had a number of other planes which
landed there-sometimes in large
numbers.
~" Routes to Be Abandoned.
Planes attached to the Air Force
itself-and not its subordinate COM
mand MATS-frequently put into
National to discharge passengers, he
said. The number of such landings
vary with the need.
In addition to its transcontinental
service, MATS is disseminating its
~ routes" These extend from
Washington to Biloxi and Jackson,
Miss: Corpus Christi, Tex, and
thence to San Francisco.

the direct transcontinental run and

able are part of those promised Gen.

PENDANTS were indicted originally on
charges of planning to wage ag-
gressive war, plundering property
of conquered countries and exploit
ing slave labor.
After months of testimony the
tribunal dismissed the aggressive
war charges last April for lack of
evidence. Technically it dismissed
two counts committing crimes
against the peace and participating
in a conspiracy against the peace.
Acquittal on the aggressive war
charge largely was due to the fact
that the prosecution had leaned
heavily on testimony against old
Gustav Krupp. He later was found
too ill to be tried. Alfred, who be-
came the principal defendant, did
not enter active participation in
the firm until 1943.
! This action left only the plumber
and slave labor charges.
| From start to finish the trial has
been explosive. At one time six OF
the German defense lawyers OBJ
jected to court ruling and stalked
out in protest. They were thrown
into Jail for contempt. Then all but
one-Who refused to apologize
were reinstated.
| No Defendants Testify.
None of the defendants took the
witness stand However, they sub
mitted twice the number of docu-
ments as the prosecution and called
more witnesses. On one occasion
five of the defendants charged that
the prosecution had broWbeaten
them before the trial began. This
was found to have been exaggerated
| In explaining its decision to dis
miss the aggressive war charge, the
court said last month that an in
dustrialist must have advance
knowledge of invasion plans to be
convicted of plotting aggressive
war.
Such advance knowledge of Hit
ler's war plans was not proved
against the Krupp officials, the court
declared.
Last month the prosecution asked
the tribunal to. reconsider the ac-
ouittal Of the Krupp defendants on
charges of Waging aggressive war.
When the trial of the Krupps
opened last December the prosecu-
ton charged that the armament
combine and German militarists
are the indestructible denomination
of Germany's murderous repeated
lunges at the worlds throat"
Twenty-three directors of the I. G
Farben Chemical Trust were SIM
ilarly acquitted Thursday of plan
ming and waging aggressive war
The American court trying them
handed down convictions against Is
of them on plumber and slave labor
charges.
