U.S. District Judge John P. Fullam gave the bankrupt Penn Central four months to come up with either a viable reorganization plan or "suitable proposals for liquidation." Fullam said there were constitutional limits to the financial protection the bankruptcy court could afford the railroad against its creditors. He said the "legislative and executive branches of government must be looked to for solutions, if solutions are to be forthcoming." Three court-appointed trustees of the railroad originally were scheduled to file a reorganization plan April 1, 1973. Fullmari extended the.

deadline Tuesday to July 2, noting that the Penn Central had failed to establish the four "conditions of viability" considered essential to a successful reorganization. The four conditions were increased freight revenues, decreased labor costs, elimination of losses on passenger service and a smaller physical plant. 'It is now clear that these goal's cannot be accomplished to pe'rmit the filing of a definitive plan on April 1," Fullam wrote. The judge said the public interest would require Penn Central to maintain operations in the 16 states it serves in the East and Alert maintained for water spouts CRESCENT CITY An alert is being maintained in the Del Norte area today for further possible occurrence of more water spouts off the Crescent City area.
