pacific planes by the short Great
Circle route to the Orient, used by
Northwest Airlines.
A brief filed with the CAB by
Henry J. Friendly, PAA general
counsel, asked removal of what it
termed “artificial restrictions.”
These force Pan American to
“detour its passengers more than
a thousand miles through mid
Pacific islands on their way to the
Orient,” the company said.
Pan American’s brief contended
that restrictions barring it from
the Great Circle course were “for

$30,000 Painting Stolen
From Art Gallery But
Is Found On Nearby Lawn
TORONTO, UP) — A $30,000 Ru
bens masterpiece stolen from the
Toronto art gallery last night was
found today on the lawn of the
provincial parliament building a .
mile away.
A policeman on his way to
work recovered the 52 by 27
inch painting, by the 17th cen
tury Flemish artist — “the eleva
tion of the cross.”
The canvas was slipped from
its silk-backed frame after the
gallery closed last night. A burg
lar alarm was touched off.
Police theorized the painting
was stolen by a private collector
or a religious fanatic, but could
n’t understand why it was aban
doned a mile west of the gallery.
The painting was said to have
been undamaged.
