 Leonard Dale Sage was arraign- en in Reno on the charge. Agents said he told the pilot of Nixon's plane: "Your plane is not going out today. I just put a bomb on it." Then he drove away in cab, through which he was traced. No bomb was found.
 Nixon's history-making trip to the mid-Pacific islands that make up the 50th state capped busy day of politicking highlighted by his allegation that his opposition paid with the Democratic plat form for the support of labor union leaders.
 Nixon will be the first presi- dential candidate to seek votes in Hawaii. Sen. John F. Kennedy, the Democratic contender, plans to visit Hawaii and Alaska in
