Stop-GoP Fare Plan
Voted by Air Carriers
Walt Kelly

MONTREAL, May Is (AP)
The International Air Trans
port Association has agreed on
"a stop-gap formula to resolve
the dispute over trans Atlantic
air fares. But the compromise
plan still needs approval by
member governments.
The air carriers involved
unanimously approved the plan
at an emergency IATA session
last night.
The agreement will soften the
recent 5 per cent increase in
trans Atlantic economy class
fares. BY the time that in
crease expires in March, 1864,
the IATA hopes to have reached
a new agreement acceptable to
all parties.
The United States Civil Aero
Board had opposed the
S per cent increase agreed upon
at an IATA meeting in Chand-
Ter, Ariz., last year and imposed
by European carriers May /. 1t
was effected by reducing the
discount on round trip fares
from 10 per cent to 5 per cent.

Under the compromise plan
the IATA agreed to keep the

soften it by a 81 reduction in

Checks, Bills
Net Fines for
Man and Wife

An embarrassed Cleveland
woman yesterday pleaded guilty
to writing worthless checks and
her husband to not paying
board bills after the couple en-
joyed a free stay in George
town in April.
She appeared before General
Sessions Court Judge Milton s..
Kronheim, jr., neatly attired in
a green summer suit. She had
no previous police record.
II imagine this has been a
terrific experience for you,"
the judge said.
"Oh. it has, your honor, it
has," she replied haltingly.
Fines Suspended
The judge fined her 500.
Her husband received a 5000
fine. Both fines were sus-
pended.
They ran up an unpaid bill
Of more than $500 at the
Georgetown Inn, cashed worth
less checks at liquor stores on
Wisconsin avenue, and failed
to pay bills at the Hotel 2400
and the Fairfax Hotel. The
woman was listed at Laura
Lee Young, SO, her husband as
Selbert Young, SO.
Seventh Precinct Detective
George T. Kashchak said the
couple established credit by
showing papers which indicated
that the wife had a large trust
fund in a Cleveland bank and
that she received regular an
nual payments of $1,000. 1T
seemed to work rather well,"
the detective said.
Tried to Get Money
John T. Bonner, court-ap-
pointed attorney, appeared with
the couple earlier this month
and got permission from the
court to let the wife fly to
Cleveland under personal bend
in order to get cash to make
restitution.
But she returned with empty
hands. She had over-reached
her income from the trust by
two years and attorneys con-
trolling the fund refused to
turn over any more cash at
this time.
Mr.. Bonner indicated to the
United States Attorneys office
that attempts to make restitu-
tion would continue.

u. S. Seeks Allied Ideas
On PoIoris Missile Plan

OTTAWA, May 25 (AP). -
The United States expects its
allies to come forth with con-
structive ideas concerning the
proposed multilateral nuclear
force for NATO before the
Council OF the Atlantic ALI
ance meets in Paris next De-
cember.
This was made known by
ranking United States officials
when foreign and defense min
listers OF the l5-nation defense
organization left Canada's capi-
tai. In three DAYS OF delibera-
tions here they accepted the in
tegration of NATO's existing
nuclear armaments into an in
ter-allied force.
The inter-allied force is a
modest first step, the United
States believes. which should
lead to the far more ambitious
multilateral force, first adj
vanced at the Bahamas meet
ing OF President Kennedy and
British Prime Minister Harold
Macmillan last December.

tai OF 200 Polaris missiles.
manned by mixed crews and
financed by the participating
nations.
The multilateral issue was
not officially on the agenda OF
the Ottawa meeting which end
ed yesterday. Unofficially II
was one OF the most-discussed
questions In private talks be-
tween the ministers.
These talks will continue
now, top ranking American of
ficials said. and Washington
hopes that much will be done
before December.

Argentine Problems

Unfortunately, Argentina has
not been able TO solve its pressing
politico-economic problems, most
Of which stem from the l0-year
dictatorship OF Juan Peron and
his wife Evita. Appealing TO the
army and TO the labor move
ment, Peron built up a vast per-
sonal empire.
His end came In 1865 when
the navy, the most democratic Of
the services, engineered a success
full coup. The resulting juntl held
power for three years. and purged
the armed forces OF Peronista
elements. In 1858. moderate Arturo
Frondizi was elected President.
Mr.. Frondizi, however. was never
as popular with the masses as
Mr.. Peron; moreover. he was a
fiscal conservative. At a time when
most people were crying for higher
wages and more public works, Mr..
Frondizi was trying 10 balance
the budget.
In March. 1862. Mr. Frondizi
allowed the Peronistas TO run for
office in local and congressional
elections. The result was an
astounding success for the Per-
onistas who won the governor
ships OF several provinces. The
government was not In danger,
but the military. angered by a
threat OF a return OF Peronism

when elections should be held.
Last September, another armed
clash broke out between two fac
tons Of the army. with the
"legalists" winning out, promis-
ing elections for June %.
In recent weeks, the situation
was aggravated by a decision of
the Argentine courts allowing the
Peronistas to run for office. Since
the Peronistas control about one
third Of the vote, q large segment
Of the military again has become
agitated.
Last week, a group Of officers,
principally from the navy, but
representing the other services as
we'll, tried to launch another re-
bellion. They surrendered. how
ever, when 1t became clear that
the vast majority of the armed
forces remained loyal to Presi-
dent Guido.
In putting down the rebellion,
however, the loyalists proclaimed
their opposition to "Peronism. "
1t may be that in the end. the
rebellion will have accomplished
its goal Of keeping Peronistas off
the ticket.
