Bonanza, in a brief filed Wednesday with the CAB, charged that the merger may already have taken place secretly without board approval, in violation of the Federal Aviation Act. Bonanza it self is seeking to acquire control of Pacific. Bonanza told the CAB it has information that West Coast has acquired stock constituting con trol of Pacific, placing the stock in an undisclosed trust agreement that in effect constitutes an illegal merger. It said this "raises the distinct possibility that West Coast has, in fact, acquired control of Pacific in violation of Section 408 of the act." That section requires CAB approval of acquisition of one air line by another. ' Last May, West Coast asked the CAB for waiver of the Sherman Anti-trust Law so that it could exercise an option to purchase 34 per cent of Pacific's outstanding shares from stockholders Leland llayward and John H. Connelly. West Coast said the exercise of the option was to facilitate a mer ger between the two local service airlines. On June 5, the CAB de nied the waiver but West Coast last week exercised the option anyway and acquired Pacific's stock. Bonanza earlier this month asked Pacific's Board of Directors to open merger negotiations at the earliest possible date. It said a Bonanza - Pacific combination would provide superior route in- tegration. Seven Killed In Bus Crash RUTHERFORD.

(Fnoro by Bob Leber) Court Rulings May Hinder Prosecution SALEM (UPI)-New rulings by the U.S. Supreme Court will make it more difficult for police and prosecutors to obtain convictions in criminal cases, Oregon district attorneys were warned here The warning came from Lincoln County Dist. Atty. A. R. McMul len and Asst. Atty. Gen. Cnllis Marsters at a session of the two day institute for district attorneys which ended Friday. The two speakers said the new curbs are threatened from recent decisions of the U.S. Supreme Court and probably in time will become binding on Oregon's state trial courts. The decisions were those deal ing with the right of an accused person to the services of an attor ney. Marsters and McMullen said the U.S. high court has moved in re cent years to expand the rights of an accused person to right of legal counsel by refusing to admit into evidence any statements made prior to conference with a competent lawyer. Marsters, who handles all the post conviction appeals filed by inmates of Oregon's penitentiary and correctional institutions, said the federal rulings have had an effect on investigative procedures of the state police. Marsters said state police bave been instructed to- prepare all cases so they may be effective even if a confession is excluded from the evidence.
