u. 5. Demands Reds
Pay Damages in Case
OF Ransomed Airmen

The United States has de-
manded $685.. .894.11 damages
plus some interest-from the
Soviet Union and Communist
Hungary in the 16-month-o -old
case Of the four ransomed Amer
ican airmen.
Formal notes delivered in Mos
COW and Budapest late yesterday
proposed that the World Court
be asked to rule on the damage
claim If the Red governments
/ want to contest it.
| No one in Washington really
expected Russia or Hungary
either to pay the claim or sub
NIT to Jurisdiction Of the World
Court. But the United States at
least was making its case before
the bar Of world opinion.
Read Like Law. Briefs.
Reading more like lawsuit
briefs than the usual kind Of
diplomatic communications, the
notes recited chapter and
verse Of numerous international
law violations in which Russia
and Hungary "aided and abet-
ted" each other with Interior
intent to serve a propaganda
purpose Of the Soviet govern
ment."
The case. overshadowed by
the recent shooting down Of
American and British planes
over Germany. goes back to
November 10. 1851. An Ameri-
can Air Force CAT cargo plane
en- route from Erding, Germany,
to Belgrade, Yugoslavia, was
blown OF its course and forced
by a Soviet fighter to land near
the town Of Papa in Hungary.
Soviet authorities held the
four men Of the crew incom-
municado until December 3, 1851.
Then it turned them over to
Hungarian Communist authori-
ties for more fpitiless" ques-
tioning. leading to q "contrived"
trial on "trumped-up" charges
Of deliberately violating the
Hungarian frontier. They were
convicted" in the secret Sum
day morning trial on December
%, 1851, and sentenced to pay
fines totalling $123.605.15. The
plane was conf1scated.
United States Pays Fine.
The four flyers were released
on December 2S after the United
States paid the "fines." which
the new note to Hungary char
acterized as "a form Of bar
barous extortion or ransom for
American nationals unlawfully
arrested and unlawfully de-
tained."
The long separate notes to
Russia and Hungary-the one to
Moscow used more than 5000
words and the one to Budapest
about 12.000-covered much the
same ground and held both the
Communist governments respon-
sible for "a valid international
claim damages"
Break Down of Claim.
The damage claim was broken
down as follows:
$9s, ,779.29. plus 6 per cent in
terest from November 10. 1851,

Hungary.

took a misty-eyed look at her

The possibility that an interim
president might have to be
named to replace DR.. H. C. Byrd
when he leaves January / was
raised last week when a COM
mittee of regents named to Sc
lect his successor reported it
was unable to make any definite
recommendation. The five-man
committee then suggested that
the full Board of Regents ap-
point temporary administrative
personnel" at its next meeting
December 16.
But yesterday, Charles P. Ms
Cormick, a member Of that
regents committee, said there's
still a chance a permanent sue
cessor can be found and agreed
upon at the next meeting.
Still Up in Air.
''We may have to make an
interim appointment" he ex-
planned, "but that's still very
much up in the air."
He said the reason a temporary
president was suggested is that
the regents committee has en-
countered difficulty in finding
acceptable educators who are
able to leave their present posts,

BALTIMORE, Nov. 26.-An
ancient fire engine held by Balti-
more and sought by Alexandria,
Va, rolled a little closer to the
Virginia city yesterday-techni-
cally speaking.
The small handpumper still
repeses in this city's Washington
Monument, where Baltimore put
it after buying it from a Fred
erick junk dealer. The Friend
ship Volunteer Fire Co. Associa-
ton of Alexandria has asked
for it.
Yesterday, the Baltimore Board
of Estimates indicated it would
let the pumper go on a long
term loan to Alexandria-but
first some insurance technicali-
ties had to be cleared up. It
hopes to have this done by next
Wednesday.
The pumper was presented to
an Alexandria fire company by
George Washington. The Alex
andria company's headquarters
is to be dedicated as a national
shrine and it wants the pumper
for an exhibit. The Baltimore
