Northwest Says
 AA's Cargo Rates Are "Unjustified"

WASHINGTON tR North west Airlines said yesterday that cargo rate reductions between Seattle and Anchorage and Fair banks, jointly proposed by Alas ka Airlines and the Railway Ex- press Agency, are unjustified.
 Northwest said it was not filing a complaint or asking for investi- gation and suspension, but was concerned about the nature of the service and the manner of divi- sion of the joint rates.
 Northwest said the agreement between the two companies pro- Vides that Alaska will handle the special-rate cargo on space available basis, after air mail, passengers, baggage, air express and air freight have been ac- commOdated.
 The tariff filed by the two firms, however, provides that shipments will be subject to avail ability of suitable equipment and space, but gives assurance that they will move only after other traffic has been handled.
 Northwest said a shipper read ing the tariff thus would assume that he would receive ordinary and usual air freight service" Northwest also noted that Alas ka's share of the joint rate would be the equivalent of the loca deferredfreight rate.
 Northwest said that if the de ferred-freight rate was to apply then the service performed also should be on a deferred basis.
 ''The board should not permit Alaska to perform regular freight service at return equal to the deferred freight rate" Northwest said.
 Pacific Northern Airlines pre- viously had filed a complaint ask ing that the rate proposal be sus- pended

 But, he added, i've have all the means necessary to rebuff an im- perialist attack, and I as a mili- tary pilot am ready to fulfill any task given me by the Communist party and the government"
 Titov said that his spaceship, although completely automatically controlled, could be guided by manual controls to landing on any spot on the globe.
 Led the Applause
 Premier KhrushcheV, standing at the spaceman's elbow, led the applause after each of Titov's sentences.
 The Soviet premier, following the new Soviet hero to the micro phone, said it was symbolic of the greatness of the Communist party that for the second time Moscow was greeting a Russian newly returned from space.
 Speaking extemporaneously and waving his arms and shouting, the Premier declared: "We were the first to build Socialism, we were the first in space and we will be the first to build Communism" ]"
 "The most sober-minded leaders of the West cannot help under standing that Socialism is the launching pad from which these flights began" he said.

Labor Secretary Steps Into Labor Dispute of Metropolitan Opera Go.

NEW YORK LR - Labor Sec retary Goldberg has stepped into the labor dispute that forced can- cellation of the Metropolitan Opera Company's 1961-62 season.
 Goldberg, in Dallas to address a convention, said Tuesday night he had already spoken to the president of the union and would contact Met representatives to- day.
 While officials battled against time to forestall what music lovers consider a tragedy of Wag- nering proportions, nearly all of the Nets singers made clear they will consider themselves under contract to the world-famous opera company.
 Two of them - Leontyne Price and Rise Stevens - had cabled Washington in a move that ap- parently precipitated Goldberg s intervention.
 It was the unions demand fo1 a wage hike that led to the can cellation Monday. The Met saic the union had demanded a weekly base pay of $248 for musicians a raise of $78 over last season.
 The opera called the demand "exorbitant' and said it could no afford to meet it. Consequently it released it's singer from thei contracts so they could mak, other arrangements.

Unmarked Patrol
 Cars Will Be Used Tn Ketchikan and Juneau

JUNEAU LP - Unmarked pa- trol cars will go into service for the State Police in Ketchikan and Juneau in about one week, Com missioner of Public Safety Martin Underwood said today.
 Insufficient pers rsonnel to properly patrol the highways was given as the reason for the un- marked cars. Underwood said his department just did not have suf- ficient monies to employ the num- Der of patrolmen needed for sur veillance of Alaska highways.
 Underwood emphasized tn ere would be no hunting nor hiding of the cars, only straight patrol ac- tivity. Troopers manning the ve- hicles would be in uniform.
 Unmarked cars will be utilized in the Anchorage and Fairbanks areas as soon as they can be ob- tained, he said.
 We are aware of speeding and drag racing on the highways" Un- derwood stated, "and we hope by using unmarked patrol cars we can cut this out and make the highways safe for the average driver"
 Underwood added that, mine ty-nine per cent of the traffic problem is licked if a patrolman is on duty and can be seen by the driving public. I hope that using the unmarked cars we can achieve the same effect" Underwood con- 1 cluded.

Pan Am Jetliner Seized Over Mexico Lands In Havana With Sl Aboard

NEW YORK tR - A Pan Amer ican World AirWays pcs jet air liner was hijacked over Mexico today and forced to fly to Cuba with at least 81 persons captive aboard it. It landed safely in Ha- Vana in id-afternoon
 American military planes fail ed in an attempt to overtake and divert it on it's flight to Havana.
 Two Air Force and two Navy jet fighters took off from Florida bases in a vain attempt to inter cept the airliner. A Pentagon spokesman in Washington empha- sized there was no idea of shoot at the airliner. Instead, it was planned to track it and perhaps divert it.
 Although three prior hijack- ings of American commercial air liners since May l had led to a federal authorization for arming aircraft crews, Pan American said the crew of the $5 million jet liner was unarmed.
 Among passengers listed on the Pan American flight from Hous- ton, Tex, to Panama City, was the Foreign Minister of Colombia, Julio Cesar Turbay, his wife and an entourage of aides. He was re- turning from an official visit to Mexico.
 Turbay has been one of Fidel Castro's most vehement South American critics. His presence aboard the airliner could well stir up an international furor.
 The White House said a demand had been dispatched through channels to the Cuban govern ment for immediate return of the jet, its passengers and crew.
 Castro still holds an Eastern Airlines prophet Electra hijacked July 24, although passengers and crew were released after being held overnight.
 The Pan American ship took off from Houston, Tex, and was bound for Panama City with stops at Mexico City, Guatemala City and San Jose, Costa Rica.
 Pan American here was not sure whether there were 72 or 76 passengers aboard the plane. There were 9 crew members head

fingered Senators Want Death Penalty" For Plane Attackers

WASHINGTON R - Senators angered by today's hijacking of another American plane demand ed in the Senate tough new laws to declare plane seizures an act of piracy punishable by death.
 Sen. Warren Magnuson, O. Wn). Chairman of the Senate Commerce Committe, obtained a suspension of Senate rules to permit immediate consideration of a bill proposing a mandatory life sentence for plane hijackings.
 Magnuson promptly proposed an amendment to provide a mandatory death penalty"
 The swift consideration of the measure had the joint blessing of Sens. Mike Mansfield and Everett Dirksen, the Democratic and Re publican leaders.
 Sen. Mike Monroney, the bills actual floor manager, told the Senate it may be that the Cuban government had nothing to do with the latest seizure.
 If that is the case, he said, Cuba could prove it easily by jailing the "pirates" who seized the Pan American jet and turning them over to the United States for trial.

HAVANA R-The Cuban gov ernment today gave permission for the hijacked PAA jet liner to leave, probably for Miami, and the plane prepared to take off with all passengers and crew ex- cept man held as hijacker. He was not identified
 Before the release order came, the passengers and crew seemed unWorried by the hijacking. News men were not permitted near the passengers but from a distance they appeared to be laughing and joking among themselves.
 The takeoff had been expected about ' p.m., EDT, but was de- layed when it was discovered there was no adequate jet en- zine starting mechanism at the Havana airport. Airport officials said an efort would be made by using a mechanism normally en- ployed for turboprop planes.

CUPBOARD MOTORS ON GRACEFUL GONDOLAS

VENICE, Italy LR - Outboard motors on the graceful gondolas of Venice? Ugh!
 That's the way city officials feel about it and the gondoliers are delighted.
 Claiming modern motorboats threaten to drive the lovely but leisurely gondolas out of busi- ness, the boatmen dramatized their complaint by hanging motors on a few of the Canal City's tra- ditional craft.
 Shocked at the sight, officials promised to slap speed limits on motorboats and restrict the num- Der of licenses.

BERLIN. Nov. 8. (AP).-
Even the sewers of East Berlin
are being barricaded to prevent
refugees escaping, West Berlin
police reported today.

served workers on the east side
Of the border climbing into
manholes to fit steel bars in
the tunnel-like drainage pipes.

frequently shattered by the
detonation of explosives as
Communists strengthened their
barricade around the city's
outer limits.
Windows of houses in the
West were broken by the blast
ing and some buildings dam

West Berlin during the past "A
hours, West police said.

more Soviet Army activity had
been noted in the past few days

West Germany to West Berlin.
Whether the Soviet vehicles
were patrols or normal military
traffic was difficult to tell, the
informant said. But he added
that there was apparently a
trend toward patroling by the
Red Army.
The Russians objected to the
United States sending military
assistance vehicles" along the
110 miles of four-lane super

can official travellers in diff
culties. The Russians claim
they are responsible for patrol
