Japan Air Lines Flights To
West Coast Points Is OK’d
By CAB Chief Examiner
WASHINGTON, UP) — The Civil
Aeronautics Board chief examin
er recommended Friday that Ja
pan Air Lines be permitted to
serve Los Angeles and Seattle
as well as San Francisco.
Service to all three cities by a
Japanese airline is specified in
the U. S.-Japan bilateral air agree
ment, and the Japanese govern
ment has designated Japan Air
Lines to operate the route.
Chief Examiner Francis Brown
said the new service would pro
duce a “substantial volume of air
travel and would be in the public
interest.
Brown said the airline began
service between Japan and San
Francisco, by way of Wake Island
and Honolulu, with two. round
trips a week in 1954, and now is
operating daily service with DC7C
and DC6B aircraft.
Last year it carried more than
28,000 passengers across the Pa
cific, or about one-third of all air
passengers traveling between Ja
pan and the United States. Suffer
ing a $3,465,900 loss the first year,
Japan Air Lines has improved its
position to an annual profit of
$1,670,400.
Shemya and Anchorage were
listed as intermediate points, but
it was made clear that they would
be operational stops only, with no
pickup or delivery of traffic.

Boarding Navy Lt.
Says Russ Vessel
Likely Broke Cable
ARGENTIA, Nfld., UP — The
U. S. naval lieutenant who
searched the Novorossisk says the
Soviet trawler “probably quite
likely” had something to do with
breaking transatlantic cables.
But, he emphasizes, “I don’t
know whether accidentally or in
tentionally.”
Lt. Donald Sheely of Falls
Church, Va., told a news confer
ence Friday night that the Soviets
offered no resistance to his board
ing party on Thursday and sailed
away on being told to leave the
Grand Banks area where five
cables were broken.
In Sydney, N. S., the Eastern
Telegraph and Telephone Co. -
said a patrol plane had sighted
about 20 trawlers — 15 of them
Soviet — still operating in the
area Friday. The pilot said the
ships “just appear to tffe fishing.”
Rough seas and drifting ice
held up repairing of the cables.
Two Western Union cableships
are standing by.
The Soviet Communist Party
newspaper Pravda called the
boarding illegal and the official
Soviet news agency Tass described
it as the “unlawful action of the
American naval fleet in the open
sea.”
Neither gave any immediate
indication whether the Soviets in
tend to make a formal diplomatic
protest. If they do, they face a
rebuff.
U. S. State Department Press
Officer Lincoln White said in
Washington “I don’t think any
apology is involved in any way,
shape or form. This was not a
hostile action, but an investiga
tion clearly provided for under
terms of a treaty.”
Moscow Radio, in a newscast
to the Soviet people, tended to
treat the boarding as a routine
story.
