U. 5. Opposes
AirIineMerger
By the Associated Press

Merger Of Eastern Air Lines
and American Airlines would
create a monopoly and would
be "repugnant to established
antitrust principles" the JUS
tlce Department says.
The department filed a brief
yesterday with Civil Aeronau-
tics Board Examiner Ralph L.
Wiser opposing the proposed
merger Of American, the Ma
tons second largest air carrier,
and Eastern, the fourth largest.
Both companies filed briefs
contending merger is the first
step toward solving serious fl
nancial problems.
Joining the Justice Depart
ment In opposing the merger
with briefs Of their own we're
several other airlines and labor
unions.
The Justice brief commended
that merger would give the
combine monopoly control of
at least seven major passenger
markets, thus violating the Fed
eral Aviation Act. The brief
said the merged line would
completely dominate its weaker
competitors, would restrain
competition and would ieopar-
die the existence Of remaining
carriers"
American Airlines' brief called
the proposed merger IAN emf
nently logical one" and cited
figures showing the four largest
carriers had lost $23.5 million
in the first five months Of 1862
while five smaller airlines made
profits Of $11 million.
Eastern in its brief claimed
the merger would save the two
airlines $54 million in expenses
and 500 million in capital in
vestment annually by 1865.
But the Justice Department
and others who opposed the
merger said the claims of saw
ings would prove illusory.

DaredeviIsSaiI
In Castro Lair,
Escape With 9

MIAMI. Fla, Aug. l (AP).-
Two young Cuban refugees say
they sailed to Havana, walked
among armed militiamen, hi
lacked a fishing vessel and
returned to Florida with nine
friends and relatives seeking
freedom from Fidel Castro's
Communist regime.
The daring venture was con-
ceived after the underground
radio reported the father of
one was in danger Of arrest
and execution for counterrevo-
lutionary activities.
The young men were unable.
however, to save the father,
and now are awaiting word
that he can reach the coast.
If he can. the young men say
a second mission will be under
taken.
The two asked the Associated
Press not to reveal the fathers
whereabouts.
Similarly, the two must be
known only as Manuel, 81, who
tried to rescue his father, and
Tomas, II. They fled to Miami
from Cuba a year ago.
Support Cruiser
The have supported them
selves since by odd jobs, con-
tributing most Of their earnings
to the small anti-Castro group
with which they became affili-
ated. Members pool their re-
sources to maintain q speedy
cruiser which ferries arms and
ammunition to underground
workers in Cuba and to help
others escape.
Five men in the organization
said they would accompany the
two youths, who fitted out an
other craft for their private
raid on Cuba.
The party left July IA in a
17-foot auxiliary sailboat. They
had q minimum supply of food
and water. two borrowed pistols
and a rifle.
In darkness two days later
the boat pulled close to shore
at Varadero Beach, east of
Havana.
Manuel and Tomas waded
ashore. The five adults headed
for a tiny island Is miles off
shore, and hid until time for a
rendezvous.
Manuel said, There were
militiamen all around, but no
one questioned U.S."
Food Provided

two days in Havana. 1T was

Tomas, "or we would have

They then ordered at gun

Manuel's wife lived.

driver assured us he was anti

helped us after that"
