IAN ANTONIO, March 11-(AP) - 'rwo B-29 bombers carrying 15 men and flying blind on instrum- ents collided and crashed six miles apart in the hilly ranch country of South Central Texas today. First reports from the scene said all aboard perished.

One plane was scattered when it struck; the other remained intact but exploded and burned after gliding to earth, Constable Bill Hancock of San Antonio said.

He said no survivom were found, although a search continued. No parachutes were seen, he said.

Both planes were on training nights from -Randolph Air Force base. They were being flown by mechanical pilots with their cabins blacked out.

The air base first reported that I B-25 bomber sighted the wreck- age of one plane and radioed that it was scattered over a quarter oi a mile. Hours later it confirmed that two planes had collided.

The accident occurred 40 miles north of hero in a rugged country oi cedar and live oak trees.

The base said a special investig- ating board was flying to Randolph tonight from San Bernadlno, Calif.

Hancock said a ranch hand told this story of seeing the crash:

"One B-29 went under the other and tore off its tail section. The one without the tail went straight down and crashed.

"The other kept flying as if noth- ing happened. then all of a sud- den it went straight down."

Hancock said the first one was demolish d with "bodies scattered all over." .

The second bomber remained in- tact after falling. he said. but ex- ploded and burned.

Montreal Police Spur Efforts To Capture Bandit

MON'I'R.!lAL,,Mhrcl1 1.2 -(OP)- Police cruisers travelling in groups and loaded with heavily armed de- tectives, roamed Montreal streets today with a common obiect-- capture of Edwin Alonzo Boyd.

Boyd is the last of the trio of Toronto thugs sought in the great manhunt that has gripped this city since Friday.

The two gun-wielders of the crime trinity were brought down by police bullets. They are in dif- ferent Montreal hospitals.

Leonard Jackson battled hope- lessly last. night against a storm of bullets and tear-gas bombs that rained on his basement apartment Wounded in the stomach and arms and half-blinded by the gas, he staggered from the door and sur- rendered with his wife.

It was much the same story with suchan last Friday night except for the spectacular firing in thd street. suchan, too, collapsed from police bullets. in an apartment on- ly a few blocks from where Jack- son lived.

Police l-Jlated

Elated over the capture of these two. police turned loose every available man today in the gigan- tic manhunt for Boyd.

Boyd is believed to be the brgjng of the trio. He is wanted on bank holdup charges in Toronto, where he and Jackson escaped from the Don Jail last November.

Jackson and Suchan are wanted on bank holdup charges and for attempted murder of two Toronto detectives. shot down when they approached a car last week. two days after a downtown 324.000 bank robbery.

Police believe all three fled to hidcouts in Montreal. Suchnn rent- ed s. swanky apartment on Cote

Though no announcement was made oi the session, informants in Ottawa disclosed that three Canadian trade and marketing experts were dispatched to the? American Capital to meet with American officials on the embar- goes which have caused concern on both sides oi the border.

But. in explaining and interpret- ing the regulations, there was goodl reason to hope. informants said,I that some of the rigidity oi the bane 'mlght be lifted slightly.

He also severely criticized the Federal Government for its fail- ure to appoint a Senator from this Province and said Ottawa was depriving Prince Edward Is- land of its rightful representation in the Senate at n time when the Maritimea needed every voice they could ralsc.

Gailsltell leads" On New Budget

labor Allaclt A

By IL B. Mu:.LII.I'khI

LONDOIN. March 12 -(Reuters) --Hugh Gaitskell, former Socialist Chancellor of the Exchequer, to- day assailed the Conservative Government's new budget. as a plan to soak the poor and give to the rich.

He opened Parliamentary debate on the record l:4.i50.000.000 budget with the claim that "stripped of all disguise it is a lamentable move to take from poorer people and to give to the wealthier peo-

Chcered frequently by Labor tack on the big cuts in food sub- sidies. The budget reduced by some f:i60,000.000 the amount the Government will pay to food pro- ducers to hold down the price the housewife pays for staple foods.

lie said the cuts. which will in- crease food prices by about 20 cents a week per person, would hit hardest the low-income workers.

Gaitskeli charged the Conservat- ives with breaking election prom- ises in the budget, presented by Treasurer R. A. Butler.

Gait.skell said that at a critical moment in history when the country needs unity "this budget divides and weakens us."

He criticized the increased tax on gasoline-7 1-2 pence a gallon -saying it would result in higher public transport fares.

Turning to the problem of dis-

appearing gold and dollar reserves and the !:i00.000,000 cut in imports, Gaiiskcll complained that the country had never been given de- tails of agreements reached at the recent Commonwealth Finance Minist.ers' meetings in London. , (Australia. New zealand and Southern Rhodesia have announced import cuts which will make it harder for Britain to find markets for her export drive. These count- ries need to balance their own import-cxrport levels so as not to throw the sterling bloc out of step.)

while M.P.'s debated the budget, its impact was producing a flow of coment frcm officials who will be affected by it. i

Hotel and Restaurant Amoclat- icns warned that higher foodoosts would mean more expensive meals. Transport organizations predicted 51 rise in fares following the new gasoline tax. Sports promoters were dismal about the new enter- tainment tax affecting soccer. athletics and boxing.

The London stock Exchange ac- cepted the budget as a most prom- ising departure for the country and for sterling. But the combin- ation of the increased bank rate and higher taxes an excess profits knocked several hundred million pounds off stock exchange values

Sterling strengthened all over the world. in New York it reached its highest rate for 1952.
