West Germany, Britain and De nmark were reported to have warned the session that defiance of the FAA’s ban before completion of the current intensive investigation might trigger a dangerous conflict with the Americans. The European Civil Aviation Commission called another meeting for Tuesday night to try to avoid an open split.

Cessna^ PHOT CENTER BRAZOS AVIATION 696-8767 EASTERWOOD AIRPORT COLLEGE STATION One of the major arguments against the action by the FAA was that it affected all DC-lOs, not just the type that crashed outside Chicago, killing about 275 people. “Air New Zealand’s chief execu tive officer, Morrison Davis, be lieves the mandatory grounding of all DC-lOs is irresponsible and frivolous, airline spokesman Gordon Steptoe said. “We are totally convinced of the integrity of our series 30 DC-lOs and when things get back to normal we will have to look at the possibil ity of suing the FAA,” he said. The plane that crashed near Chicago was a DC-10, model 10. Most Asian airlines fly the long- range model 30 or model 40. Japan Air Lines, which grounded nine DC-10s, said it is in the process of instituting some form of interven tion in a court case in the United States Friday which could deter mine if the planes remain grounded. JAL would not estimate its losses due to the FAA action, but air in dustry source said JAL must be los ing about $300,000 a day. minister, unless you re prepared to take American goods and services, you’d better tell your people they’d better be ready to sit on the docks of Yokohama in their own Toyotas, watching their own television sets,” Connally said. Later Connally told reporters he wouldn’t cut off trade with Japan and other major importing nations, but would force better trade agree ments with them. “I’m not a protectionist. I’m a free marketer. But above all I’m a fair trader,” he said. Connally refused to criticize the new trade agreement President Carter’s special ambassador Robert Strauss just completed with Japan, saying he wasn’t familiar with all its details.
