fly regulat schedules and usually
qualify for subsidies and airmail
pay.
Heacock contends that Lee and
other CAB members are now forc
ing all these independent lines
out of business and creating an
airline monopoly. He contends
that to wait for Congress to legis
late would put most small opera
tors out of business. He has asked
that Lee’s reappointment be re
jected or at least held up until
the Senate questions the entire,
CAB membership.
Heacock in a new appeal to the
Senate committee Wednesday re
peated his previous offers to haul
airmail between Seaitle and An
chorage and Fairbanks, Alaska for
$1 a year.
He estimated that a pending re
quest of Pan American Airways
to extend its present Alaskan
service would greatly increase
subsidies and airmail pay now
costing taxpayers $1,700,000 to
$2,000,000 a year.
Pan-American now erves Jun
eau and Fairbanks while North
west Airlines serves Anchorage. |
“The $1 a year offer should
leave no excuse for the CAB to
subsidize a less efficient monop
oly to drive us out of business,”
Heacock wrote the committee,
“and leave the way open for us to
institute a taxpayer’s suit to en
join the board from transferring
funds from the public treasury to
the treasury of Pan American.”

iSritish Election
Ver\ (Jose; New
Election Forecast
^Continued from Page One)
Many of the districts still to be
heard from were in traditionally
Labor strongholds.
The race was so close, however,
that many leaders on both sides
speculated on the possibility that
neither party would be able to
muster a working majority in the
new Parliament. That would
force a new election in the near
future.
Morgan Phillips, general secre
tary of the Labor Party, told an
interviewer the Laborites “need
a majority of 30 seats to function
effectively as a government.”
A Conservative spokesman said
there seemed a good chance that
the winning party, whichever it
was, would be lucky to scrape
j home with a majority of ten.
If this happened another elec
tion would be unavoidable.
Usually in these circumstances
there are minority political groups
which can be persuaded to sup
port one side of the other.
But this time the Liberals, third
i strongest party in Britain, were
making a sorry showing in seat*?
won and the “splinter” groups
were completely obliterated.
