DIRT IN AIRCRAFT
 BRAKES FOUND BY
 PILOTS WITNESS

SEATTLE, May 24|R-A noted criminologist told a federal jury yesterday that he found dirt in the hydraulic braking system of the Alaska Airlines plane which crashed November 30. 1947.
 The criminologist, Luke May was defense witness. He is an eX- pert in the determination and proof of scientific evidence.
 May receives as much as $500 for day in court. He said that in tes- tifying yesterday he does not expect to receive any pay.
 It was left for the jury to decide whether the dirt would have aftec- ted operation of the brakes. The jury also must decide whether the dirt got into the cylinder and shuttle valves while they lay for four months at Boeing Field before examination by May. or whether it was there at the time of the crash.
 
 The plane ran off the runway, down a bank and onto the high way at Seattle-Tacoma Interna- tional Airport. Nine persons died.
 May is a witness for James E. Farris, the pilot. Farris is trying to prove he is innocent of charges brought by the Civil Aeionautics Administration.
 The CAA says Farris made an instrument approach to the runway when the ceiling was below mini mum and made faulty landing. 2
 Farris contends that he was mak- ing an emergency landing because of rough" engine and that the planes brakes failed.
 Four micro-p photographs of grit in the mechanism were rejected as evidence by the court. Federal Judge John O. Bowen ruled that magni- fication of the dirt distorted its natural appearance.
 The case was expected to go to the jury today.

BOARD U REEzES
 $16,000 IN FUNDS FOR GUARD, HOUSING

Sums totaling more than $16,000 were unfrozen late yesterday by the Board of Administration to take care of operations of the AL aska Housing Authority and the National Guard.
 The guard received $5,000 for current expenses, and the housing group got $11,193.30 to pay bills already incurred during activities in getting iow-cost housing proj- ects under way throughout the Territory.
 Among projects of the Authority is the building of 50 low-cost homes in the Douglas area.
 A request for $2,500 from the Board of Dental Examiners was turned aside by the board, which met in the office of Gov. Ernest Gruening. Already given to the board since funds were ice-packed two years ago has been $991, on its entire bienniel appropriation of $2,500.
 The money was wanted for a meeting to be held in Seattle. A letter was written to the board ex- plaining that it had but $1,509 on the books, so couldn't possibly receive the money requested.

Earl WaveII, vitfor h African Campaign. Dies After Operation

LONDON, May 24 - R - Earl Wavell, the one-eyed British Field Marshal who crushed Italian armies in Africa ten years ago, died today.
 The veteran soldier, who also served as Viceroy of India in the turbulent period after the war, underwent an abdominal operation on May 5. his 67th birthday. He suffered a relapse Sunday.
 A daring strategist who believed in taking calculated risks, Wavell won the first. substantial gains for Britain in the last war. He turned the tide. temporarily at least, in 1940 and 1941 and inspired the Elm pire with hope in a time of deep depression.
 Wavell drove Italian forces from Egypt, cleared much of Cyrenaica and smashed the strongest elements of Mussolini's African troops.
 Wavell started fighting for the King in the South African War in 1901. He lost an eye while fighting in France in the First World War.
 Married in 1915 to Eugenei Marie Quirk, Wavell had two daughters and a son. The son, Viscount Keren born in 1916, will succeed to the Earldom.

FURTHER ROUNDUP

WASHINGTON, May "A - u71 - Senator Edwin c. Johnson tD-Colo) predicted today the FBI arrest of a Philadelphia chemist as an asso- ciate of British atomic spy Klaus Fuchs is only the beginning of a roundup of other accomplices.

 PROGRAM HIT. BY SENATOR'S

WASHINGTON, May 24 - R - Republican Senators attacked the Point Four" program today as the opening wedge for permanent system of US. economic aid to na- tions all over the world.
 They contended that the plan is so broad that help could even be given to Russia and other Con- munist countries.
 The attack delayed final Con- gressional action on a $3,120, $50 ,000 foreign aid bill. The measure in- cludes $35,O00,0OO for the Point Four plan to assist economically undeveloped areas"
 Senator Malone (R-Nev) told the Senate the Presidents program is intended to take up where the European Recovery Program leaves off, but without any limit on time or funds.

COOKING WITH GAS. IN FAIRBANKS I5 NO
 SONG AS JUICE OFF

FAIRBANKS, Alaska, May 24- R-Batteries and camp stoves are getting to be as rare and as valu- able in stores here as a wartime carton of cigarettes.
 Reason? The power plant strike.
 One housewife last night cooked dinner for her husband, sister, brother-in- and seven children on a two-burner Coleman stove.
 Power is being rationed and con- sumers are staggering their cook ing hours.
 Both Local 1850, International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (AFL) and the Fairbanks Explora- ton Department of the United States Smelling, Refining and Min ing Co.,, are still deadlocked over the electricians demand for union shop.
 Hopes for a settlement both fell and rose yesterday.
 They fell after attorneys told the city council there was no chance for the city to obtain an injunction against the strikers. There's nothing under the Health md Safety Provisions of the Alas Sa code that would authorize it, they said. Mayor Maurice T. John ion had inquired into the possi- oility late last week.
 On the bright side, it was an- bounced a representative of the J. S. Mediation and Cancellation Service is due here Friday to tN' oo effect a settlement.
 Harry H. Lewis, regional direc- tor at Seattle of the Cancellation Service, assigned conciliator Albin L. Peterson to go to Fairbanks. Lewis said at Seattle that Peterson plans to call employers and the union together in Fairbanks Fri day night.
