COLORADO SPRINGS,

inkruptcy Court judges cre
ated their own organization this
week to educate the public and
Congress about ihe status of the
federal bankruptcy system.

Former Bankruptcy Judges.

make specific proprosals to res
tore to bankruptcy courts “the
jurisdiction taken away by the
U.S. Supreme Court.”
Former Judge Glen E. Keller
Jr. of Denver said former judges
could “speak with more free
dom” about the ills in the system.
The U.S. Supreme Court
ruled last June that court-
appointed bankruptcy judges
could not exercise federal court
jurisdiction.
“We must show the Congress
and the executive branch the
danger of failure to immediately
and directly address the need
for effective legislation,” Blinn
said.
“The need is highlighted by
such cases as Braniff, Manville,
Wilson Foods, Baldwin-United
and Continental, involving bil-
lions of dollars, tens of
thousands of employees and
thousands of stockholders,” he
said.

HOUSTON — Continental
Airlines, waiting on its request
for a court order that would
force suppliers to continue serv
ing the airline, said Thursday it
plans to add 14 new flights to its
scaled-down schedule by the
end of the month.
The airline also said fares on
the new flights, effective Oct. 30,
would range from $30 to $125
one-way on all nonstop domestic
routes.
After the carrier declared
bankruptcy last month, it
slashed its flights from 540 a day
to 118.
“This will put us up to 132,”
said Continental spokesman
Bruce Hicks.
Union pilots and flight atten
dants called a strike against Con
tinental Oct. 1, but enough un
ion members have crossed pick
et lines since to keep the carrier
operational.
