By BARBARA MILZ City Han Writer Members of the City Council Public Works Committee yesterday modified the pres- ent parking ban on a few major downtown streets. And they made the ban more restrictive in the Wai-kiki section of Kalakaua Av- enue. Committee members listened again to" a plea for more parking to be allowed on Kapiolani Boulevard, and eased the parking restriction on the mauka side to allow parking during the non-peak daytime-hours and at night. Parking will also be allowed on the makai side of Kapiolani on Sundays and at night 6:30 p.m. until 6 a.m.

They also eased the ban to allow parking on the makai side of King Street between Panahou' and McCully Streets and from Coolidge Street to University Avenue between 6:30 p.m. and 6 a.m., and on Sunday.

The pilot was Jack E. Veys, 43, of Honolulu, a veteran of the British Royal Air Force. His charred body was found in the burning wreckage of the plane, Coast Guard officials reported. Veys, the only person aboard the Beechcraft aircraft, left Honolulu Airport at .2:55 a.m. with a cargo of morning newspapers.

He was scheduled to land on Maui at Kahului Airport at 3:45 a.m. The Federal Aviation Agency said Veys was flying at 1,500 feet and crashed into the mountains 10 miles inland of Makena Point in poor visibility. The last radio contact was made with Veys from Kahului shortly before he was scheduled to have landed. The Coast Guard began search and rescue- operations shortly after the fuel exhaustion time of 6:10 a.m. Three Coast Guard planes searched the waters between Honolulu and Maui before the wreckage was sighted on the Haleakala slopes about 10 miles inland.

The wreckage was identified by Leonard Gavin, of Hawaii Helicopters, Incorporated, in the Makena point area at 9:20 a.m. Lloyd Smith, Skyway pres- ident, said Veys wasa very experienced pilot with more than 10,000 hours of flight time. Z-V-' Before coming to Hawaii in December Veys had flown in the Royal Air Force and with several European air lines. He also flew as a crop duster in California and with Ringo Air Lines.

Moeller was too ill mentally to form any kind of intent to take anybody's life on the day he shot and killed a policeman at the Pali Lookout, according to psychiatrist George F. Schnack. 7 I Dr. Schnack testified yesterday at Moeller's first: degree murder trial. The defense contends that, Moeller, 22-year-old television repairman, is innocent because he was insane at the time.

Schnack never used the word insane during the four hours he testified before Circuit Judge Allen R. Hawkins and a jury of- three women and nine men. The trial will resume at, 8:30 a.m. Monday. Moeller is on trial for the first-degree murder of Officer Bradley Kaanana, 25, last July 3 when he: went on a shooting spree with a rifle and 200 rounds of ammunition.

First-degree murder is the premeditated killing of another human being. a said "Moeller was operating on an unconscious level" as he shot at passing tourist buses and police sent there to investigate the shooting. It was Schnack's opinion that Moeller was "acting under the influence of a mental disease which made him incapable of realizing what he was doing and that it was criminal." The psychiatrist labeled Moeller an "ambulatory, latent or borderline schizophrenic." Schnack said ambulatory in this case meant Moeller was "walking around loose in society" since nobody thought him sick' enough 'to put away." He blamed Moeller's condition on his early experiences in life and environment, and said the defendant's mother is a hypochon-d i a his father and youngest brother mentally ill. Mrs. Moeller, who has been attending the trial, was not in the courtroom yesterday.

Her son sat with bowed head, and folded arms throughout most of Schnack's testimony. Schnack said Moeller "has Tarn to Page A-2, CoL 4 These three little orphans from Japan visited here last May.
