Pennsylvania-Central has asked permission to inaugurate service between Pittsburgh and Buffalo. Transcontinental & Western Air wants to buy Braniff to get a north-south service to cross its transcontinental route, and Eastern Air covets Braniff's line between Houston and Brownsville, Tex., in order to tie up with Pan American's route in Mexico.
