...canal efficiently, the principle of international control should not be put aside. The right to nationalize, of course, is legally accepted. But a question which seems inherent in Western statements is whether nationalization of a waterway so important to so many nations should ever come under the unquestioned rule of one nation.

With these words, a $10,065-a-year CAB trial attorney, Albert Ruppar, 47, shrugged off his dismissal from the board last week for violating the rule that prohibits CAB employees from buying airline stocks. For weeks CAB had been trying to find the man who on Aug. 2, eight days before the official announcement, had tipped off Wall Street about the board's decision to award New England's little Northeast Airlines a lucrative New York-Miami...
