PURCHASES!
New York - (Ml - Eastern
Airlines has promised a con
gressional subcommittee it
would present a detailed state- i
ment in an attempt to refute ;
a flight engineer's charges I
that flight procedures on the !
airline's Electras are"inade-;
quate and indeed unsafe." !
C. I, Smith, testifying for ;
the Flight Engineers associa
tion (AFL-CIO), told a House
investigating subcommittee in
Washington the "unsafe" cock
pit checks may have caused
the crash of an Electra last
month at Boston which killed
62 persons.
Smith said Eastern's sug
gested procedures were in "di
rect contravention" to .those
of the plane's manufacturer,
the Federal Aviation agency,
and the Civil Aeronautics
board.
Airline Denies Charges
Capt. John H. Halliburton,
vice president in charge of
operations for Eastern Air
lines, denied the charges and
said the airline intended to !
present a detailed statement
to "place this aspect of the
matter in proper perspective."
He said Eastern's cockpit a
manual in many ways "far a
exceeas me requirements ot
the government and the Elec
tra manufacturer.
At Dallas, Braniff Interna
tional Airways filed a S2.4
million suit Tuesday against I
Lockheed Aircraft and Gencr-.j
al Motors, contending the
Electra was "negligently and
carelessly planned, designed
and manufactured."
' Braniff filed the suit to re
cover the loss of one of its
Electras which crashed near
Buffalo, Tex., last year, kill
ing the 34 passengers and
crew members aboard.
Blames Manufacturers
Braniff contended the crash
was due to the negligence and
carelessness on the part of
Lockheed arid General Mo
tors, not because of negligence
or lack of care on Braniff's
part.
Robert E. Gross, chief ex
ecutive officer for Lockheed,
told the subcommittee in
Washington that Electras now
in service under an FAA
speed restriction "are as safe
as any other transport now
flying."
Elwood R. Quesada, FAA
chief, said he was certain that
a flock of starlings caused the
Boston crash. A CAB investi
gator, however, said the cause
of the crash had not been
determined.
Area Scanned for
Missing Youngster
Portland IUPII Police said
Wednesday an 11-year-old girl
missing since last week may
be in the company of a
parolee from the state peni
tentiary and that search has
moved to the Bend-Klamath
Falls area.
Police said they had reason
to believe that Renee Hanna,
last reported seen last Thurs
day, was with Claude Ken
neth Castle, 52. They said
Castle was paroled Sept. 1 aft
er serving 19 years of a life
sentence as an habitual cri
minal and that he was wanted
for parole violation.
Carried Clothing
The girl was seen last
Thursday walking away from
her home carrying clothing,
police said.
Officers said a Bend restau
rant owner had reported see
ing a man and a girl answer
ing the description of the pair
last Friday and that their con
versation indicated they
might go to Klamath Falls.
Castle was believed to have
purchased a 1950 car here
last Wednesday, police said.
