US. Suspends Airline
After Transport Crash
Kihs20 on West Coast
By the Assesinted Pres,

LOS ANGELES April 49,
North Continental Anyways, oper-
ating unscheduled transconti-
mental flights, was grounded to-
day by Government order after a
crash of one of its transports near
here had taken % lives.
The plane, a Cas- two-engine
airliner en- route from New York
to Los Angeles. crashed in the
Puente hills, Is miles from its
destination, early yesterday morn
ing in heavy fog. Seven hours
later rancher. checking on his
cattle, came upon the wreckage.
A few passengers had been hurled
from the plane, but most died
strapped in their seats.
The plane apparently exploded
as it hit the side of the 1OO-foot
hill. Short. glistening rivulets
where aluminium had melted, tes-
titled to the heat of the fire that
consumed everything except the
smashed tail section and one
wheel.
Cleared by Landing.
Early Friday, Los Angeles In
ternational Airport cleared Pilot
Lewis r. Powell for a straight
in" instrument landing through
a dense fog. The radio CONVERSE
ton was interrupted by the
ground-controlled approach oper-
ator, who monitored but did not
direct the landing. He told Mr..
Powell that his plane did not ap-
pear on the radar screen.
The plane apparently had |
crashed at that instant. Attempts |
to contact the plane failed. A
search was started but the wreck
age was not located until after
10 am.
Mrs. Juan Etchebarren, living
near the crash scene, said she
heard a noise before daylight that
sounded like a bomb.
Capt. Sewell Griggers of the
Los Angeles sheriff's aero squad
ron pointed to a furroW ripped
across the crest of a hill and said
Evidently the pilot started his
letdown too soon. A wingtip. prob
ably the right one, scraped the
top here, throwing the plane off
balance"
The plane caromed 500 yards,
pancaked on the gentle opposite
slope, and burst into flames. An
extra foot of elevation, Capt.
Griggers estimated, would have
cleared the crest. but he pointed
out that the pilot would have had
TO climb Steeply because a high
tension line doomed a short dis
tance away.
Suspended for 80 Days.
Civil AeronauticS Administrator
Charles F. Horne suspended the
airline for 80 days. He had filed
a complaint with the CAA March
81, asking for revocation of the
company'S certificate. He said the
emergency suspension is pre-
dicated upon an operating history
involving violations of civil air reg
ulationS and the Civil Aeronautics
Act, and by the accidents to air.
craft operated by the company"
The suspension notice was sent
to Robin Airlines, Inc, doing bus
mess as North Continent Airline"
Last year Mr.. Horne brought a
complaint against Robin, asking
revocation of the certificate. But
the certificate expired, the firm
went out of business and the COM
plant was withdrawn. CAA said
the company resumed operations
under the new name.

About p M, Lawson visited
the Pharmacie Ben Yehmed on
business, and had just stepped out

exploded with shattering force. No

society is composed of white
Frenchmen opposed to the aspira-

1t loses no opportunity to attempt

Tunisian Nationalists and his work

Ertrea and Ethiopia. In Cairo, he

and the minister of justice in Tu-

United Nations who will plead the

Mr.. Lawson said that in all his
travels recently, he was partic-
ularly shocked to see the destruc-
ton brought by hte British at the
ports of Massawa and Assab where
S50,000,000 worth of installations
were deliberately destroyed by the
departing British to- render the
ports imperative and thus stall
Ethiopian trade.
"The shame of it is," said Mr..
Lawson, "that Ethiopia has been
set back at least 10 years by this
wanton destruction. Even if we
give Ethipia material and techni-
clans, it will take 60 to IS million
dollars and five to ten years to
rebuild these ports.

CHARM
BY LOU LU TOUR

NEW YORK (GlobaD-Ever
think of what it means to be pc
lite to everyone at all times? That
is one of the important assets of a
charming personality. SO, if you
haven't given too much thought to
it. do so now. There is always room
for improvement in anything and
you can add to the charm you al
ready have.
Always think of the other per-
son, whether at home, in school, in
business, on the subway, in the dim
ing room, at the lunch counter, or
any place and at all times.
Riding on the subway one day
last week, l was embarrassed by
one of my own seX-a woman who,
upon seeing seat vacated some
distance away, "scooted" into the
seat in a very unlady-like manner
in order to beat young man to
it. The young man was standing
near the seat, but did not see her.
He turned around to sit in the seat,
not knowing it had been occupied
"in the twinkling of an eye" and
you know what happened-he sat
in the woman's lap. This was GER
tainly unnecessary on the part Of
the woman and to top it all, she
became very abusive in her Ian
guage to the young man. He proved
himself gentleman by simply ig-
noring her.
So you see politeness is more
than saying good morning" or
please" or thank you." 1t is al
ways thinking of others at all times
and to be kind, gentle and use good
manners.
