Steps Up Service
Due T o SS. Strike
Anticipating heavy increases
in passenger and cargo business
should the longshoremen’s strike
continue, Pan American World
Airways is planning extra flights
to Alaska as the traffic warrants,
Walter Zeiser, district sales man
ager at Seattle said.
Zeiser said at present the airline
is able to confirm space on all
passenger business northbound.
The southbound traffic is show
ing the usual increase expected
for this season and reservations
should be made as far in advance
as possible.
A sharp increase in cargo vol
ume is expected should the strike
continue. t
However, extra flights, in addi
tion to the present weekly, will be
added for carriage of both passen
gers and cargo.
On Alaska flights, clipper cargo
showed an increase of 623 per cent
—442,668 pounds—carried in July
of this year as against 60,945
pounds in July, 1947. Passenger
traffic on Alaska flights showed a
30 per cent drop in the same pe
riod. Figures were 3,357 passen
gers in July this year as against
4,884 in July last year.

Sept. 1ft Made
Air Force Day
WASHINGTON, UP)—President
Truman today proclaimed Sept. 18
as air force day in tribute to the
men and women who have “con
tributed to the growth of Ameri
can air power.”
Air force day has been observed
in the past on Aug. 1. The date
was changed, a spokesman said,
because Sept. 13 is the first anni
versary of the creation of an in
dependent air force under the na
tional military establishment.
Mr. Truman also named Col.
Reginald C. Harmon to a four
year term as the first judge advo
cate of he air force with the rank
of major general.
