CAB Orders Re-examinati0n of Pan American Airways Mail Subsidies

''In the light of specific infor- nation which indicates that for the 1946-1953 period alone Pan Americans properly recognizable expense, which was underWritten with subsidy, may have been over stated by as much as 612 million dollars, we think it clearly our duty and responsibility to re- examine, in the public interest, the mail pay awarded in this pro- ceeding.
 Moreover, our duty in this re- spect is plainly evident when it is considered that transactions between Pan American and it's affiliates aggregate some 50 mil lion dollars annually"
 Pan American has asked the U. s. Court of Appeals for the Dis trict of Columbia Circuit to re- view CAB order of last March 23 establishing it's final" mail rates for transatlantic operations.
 The CAB said in view of the results of it's audit, it would ask the court to remand that proceed ing, SO that it could be reopened

Teamsters Boss Brewster Placed First on Federal Court Arraignment List

WASHINGTON, tR - Frank w. Brewster, West Coast teamsters boss, pleaded innocent to contempt of Congress charges when ar raigned today in Federal District Court.
 Brewster, who also is a vice president of the 1,500, member teamsters union, was put at the top of the arraignment list in order to permit him to be on time for continued quizzing by the Senate Packets Investigating Committee on his use of team ster funds.
 The contempt of Congress charges arose from an earlier in quiry, in January, by the Sen ate Investigations Subcommittee. Brewster and the others refused to testify, contending the sub committee had no authority to ex- plore labor union activities.

WASHINGTON, tR LII The Civil Aeronautics Board yesterday or dered Pan American World Air ways to return $5,936,000 out of $11, ,4O2,O00 in mail pay granted for transpacific operations in 1854.
 The board said it's earlier es- tinate of the airline's subsidy needs had proved to be ''inac- curate."
 Tn a separate order the CAB made known plans to re-examine possible subsidy overpayments of 61s million dollars to Pan Amer jean from 1946 to 1853.
 The board said an audit, not yet completed, has revealed for the first time many practices of Pan American which require scrutiny"
 It said these involved, among other things, agreements and transactions with other foreign and American-flag airlines, and the charges that resulted from them.
 Much of the newly developed information has most serious inn plications concerning the reason ableness of the mail rates estab- lished for the carrier, not only for the year 1854, but for the years 1946-1953 as well" the CAB said.

Gov. Disposes of Bills From Leg.
By WILLIAM J. TOBIN

JUNEAU, LR TIT Acting Gov. Waino Hendrickson vetoed We'd nesday a bill to increase the size of the Territorial Water Pollution Control Board.
 It was the sixth veto of the 23rd sessin. The bill, mtrduced by the Senate Cmmerce and h. dustry Committee, would have increased the present 5-man board by the addition of public mem Der and the director of the Alaska Fisheries Board.
 The board now is composed of the Alaska Board of Health which wuld have continued to sit on the expanded water pollution board.
 Hendrickson called the bill partly inoperable,' and said it would create confusion. One of his main objections was the pro- vision to include the director of fisheries on the board. Under terms Of a bill which already has been enacted, the Fisheries Board is abolished in favor of a new fish and game commission.
 Also, the bill says the public member shall be appointed-but does not set a date for the ex- piration of this term, other than sometime during the course of the 1859 Legislature.
 The budget to carry territorial agencies and departments to the start of the new fiscal year on July l was signed by the acting governor.
 The budget amounts to 1,491, < 102.41. It provides funds for April, May and June of this year. At the end of June, all agencies of the territorial government will begin new fiscal year. In the past, appropriations, including the 1955- 57 budget, ran through a fiscal year which ended the last of March. The budget for 1957-59 bi- ennium has not yet been intro duced in the Legislature.
 New liquor exise taxes go into effect April l.
 The acting governor signed a bill which raises the present wholesale taxes on beer, wine and whisky. It is estimated that the higher levies will produce $2,400,000 in new revenue for the territory each biennium.
 The tax on beer goes up from 10 cents a gallon to 25 cents. The levy on wine jumps from 25 cents to 50 cents a gallon, and the tax on liquor increases from $3 a gal lon to $3.50.
 Also signed into law yesterday was bill which regulates the operation of hospital and surgical insurance programs in Alaska.
 It requires companies offering health insurance to register with the Alaska Insurance Commis- sioner. The bill was endorsed by several national health insurance firms. ' K N | n

Recent Worldwide Earthquakes Laid To Normal Earth Crust Treasures

every one of them big enough to have caused enormous damage if it had hit heavily populated area.
 The Anchorage Times said the residents of Nikolski on Umnak Island were terrified. The will lage lies at the base of Mt. Vsevi- dof, volcanic peak which has been dormant 200 years. Reports arose from somewhere that there were signs of activity near it's top.
 A photographer, Ward Wells, flew near the peak in Navy plane March l, and photographed the mountain. Wells and Navy fliers agreed, the Times said, that the picture showed no signs of vol canic action.
 But the earth there is still quivering. And it has been quiv- ering also in southern California. On March Is moderate quake shook Ventura and Oxnard, be tween Los Angeles and Santa Barbara.
 To the experts, all this means is little bulge in the total pie ture of earthquake activity.
 "It is true," said Don Tocher, assistant research seismologist at the University of California, 'that there has been about three years of relative quiet so far as big quakes are concerned. But we still have quakes all the time, and when you add up their total en- ergy from year to year the results do not vary significantly"
 pr. Charles Richter of the Cali fornia Institute of Technology also noted the lack of large shocks since 1853 and said a big one could be expected somewhere on the average of once or twice a year because the smaller ons do not entirely relieve the constant ly accommodating stresses in the earth's crust. But there is no way of predicting where or when, he asserted.
 Even in the "quiet" period, said Prof. Frank Neumann at the Uni verslty of Washington, his sta ton recorded at least 50 quakes along the Aleutian trench last year. Sometimes, he added, the area quiets down; then bigger quakes follow.
 But to all the experts the quiet periods mean only this: "The far ther you are away from the last big quake the nearer you are to the next big one. But nobody can figure out where or when the next one will come"

BY BETTY sEALE

Secretary of State Dulles
and French Ambassador Al
phand walked back and forth
in deep conversation in the
garden Of Anderson House
Saturday night.
It takes no great imagina-
ton to guess that they were
using the coffee and liqueur
hour following the William
Randolph HearSts' dinner to
discuss either of two things
the Suez issue that France
asked to have taken before
the Security Council today-or
the French government crisis
that may cause the fall Of
Prime Minister Mollet and
postpone President Coty's
visit here next week.
Tomorrow win tell the tale.
French diplomats here say
Mollet has q better-than-even
chance Of staying in power,
but that If he does resign.
the constitutional difficulties
would make 1t very unlikely
that President Coty could
leave France to pay his Of
fetal visit to this country.
Hence those invited to the
French Embassy reception on
the 5th had better not start
celebrating until after Tues
day.
NixOns Attend
Vice President and Mrs.
Nixon headlined the Hearsts'
buffet dinner that seated 80
guests at eight tables of 10
each in the great hall Of An
derson House. The Majority
Leader Of the Senate and Mrs.
Lyndon johnson. Senator and
Mrs. Styles Bridges, former
Speaker Joe Martin, Senator
and Mrs. Karl Mundt, and
Senator and Mrs. Tom Kuchel,
were included in the flock of
Bill and Bootsie's ''chums"
invited to the soiree. Bootsie's
parents. the Austin McDon-
nells Of Warrenton. were CO.
hosts at the party.
Warrentonians who came up
for the to-do were Marshall
Exnicios docking handsomer
and younger than ever with
his wife the former Eve Prime:
Mrs. Henry Parsons Erwin.
Douglas r. Smith, National
Savings g. Trust and one Of
the worlds best dancers, and
Mrs. Smith, and Nicky and
Randolph Carter.
The Nixons, incidentally, are
getting to be the slimmest pair
in Washington. Pat, a human
dynamo. has always been ultra
slender. Now the Vice Pres
ident is much thinner. as the
result Of a bug he picked up in
his African trip. He has been

Do they ever get an evening
at home? mo, we're usually
out every night" said Pat. The
social demands on them are
enormous. but they do leave
parties at a fairly early hour.
The Nixons, Dulleses and john
sons slipped out around IL be-
fore the entertainment began.
At the end of the dinner they
had heard Bill Hearst say the
excuse" for the party was the
discovery in his fathers library
