Colonial went into Federal Court here to protect its monopoly on non-stop service between the two largest cities of the United States and Canada after Canada was Dfilmlsfld thc rouie in a new agree- ment between the two countries last June 4.
In a statement decision to withdraw its appeal with the United States Supreme Court from a reversal suffered in Federal District Court here last fall, Colonial expressed hope of ob- taining addition-cl routes from the Civil Aeronautics Board.
The statement, by President Sigmund Janus. said that “with the increasing gravity of the inter- national situation we have con- ciurléd that it would not be right. in thr- public interest. to challenge the executive power of the Government to make execut- ive agreements with foreign pow- ers."
Colonial had contended in op- posing thc- grant cf the New York- Montreal route to T.C A. that it would suffer serious financial loss- es by being forced to split traffic on a run which for years supplied about three-fourths of its passeng- er revenue.
Colonial said T C.A, is ready to fly the route with pressurized. four-engined planes.

Ills charges could be part cf a political manoeuvre against the Western German Gov- ernment headed by Chancellor Konrad Adcnuilcr. Schumacher is Opposition loader. This is the plot‘ as he outlined it
The planned tally of 600,000 Eastern German Communist youth in Berlin at Whitsuntide-May 26. 2T and 28—is to be the Communist “signal for national insurrection."
It is being prepared under the‘ slogan "forward to Berlin"
The blue-shirted Communist youths are scheduled to march doiiantlv through the western sectors. named with alpcnsiocks- stout poles five feet long used by mountain climbers.
Part of the Soviet ‘wife's “pom, pic's pollce"—virtually an army—’
are to march as members of the youth organization. The marching is intended to
paralyze traffic and load to dis- turbances which would provide an excuse for uniformed formations of lilo Soviet-backed policc be "restore order." Schumacher said.
About 200.000 youths are to be brought from the Soviet zonc to the outskirts of Berlin by train. Another 400.000 arc to converge on the city by foot from all sides and join in immense columns.
The plan for the propaganda spectacle was announced Jan. 3i by Gerhart Eisler, who jumped ball as a Communist agent in the Unitcd States and became infor- mation chief of the East. German flonununist Republic.
Sciiumaclier said the wide-open borders of the Western sectors con- stitute a great danger. He added that the Western Powers should stop the demonstrators from enter- ing the Western sectors by station- ing tanks and other forces at streets leading to West Berlin.
If they failed to do so. it would be “tantamount to giving up Ber- lln."
