—
WASHINGTON, (/P)—The head
of the nation’s non - scheduled
airlines said yesterday the Civil
Aeronautics Board “is the most
formidable obstacle in the way of
mass air transportation.”
As such, s-aid Amos E. Heacock,
of Seattle, president o'f the Air
coach Transport Association, the
CAB “is the chief obstacle in the
way of adequate air lift that is
needed to save lives in an im
pending war."
Heacock’s assertion was made
before the Senate Small Business
subcommittee which is inquiring
into the effect of the CAB’s poli
cies on irregular or non-scheduled
air carriers.
Heacock said “there has been a
definite clear-cut conspiracy to
put the non-skeds out of business
through the machinery of the
Civil Aeronautics Board.
He said that 89.2 per cent of
passenger and ton miles carried
by non-scheduled carriers last
year was done by carriers dis
approved by the CAB. This dis
approval, he said, takes the form
of enforcement action directed at
the line’s route-type service, by
denial of its individual exemption
application because of route-type
service or by other indications.”

More On Sally Carrighar’s
Testimony Before Senate
(The following is in addition
to the AP news story published
in this paper last Friday, concern
ing Sally Carrighar’s testimony
before a Senate committee investi
gating CAB’s regulations on ir
regular carriers:
By Frank Vaille
WASHINGTON, </P)—Miss Car
righar enlivened her testimony
with references to packs of hungry
dogs attacking people and stories
of “outlaw” pilots operating with
out CAB approval.
Her mention of the dogs came
in connection with her statement
that bush pilots had been banned
from operations to seven villages
between Nome and Unalakleet on
the Bering coast.
She testified government sub
sidies to regular carriers on the
route amounted to about $100,000
a year—“to furnish service not
needed and not wanted by 165 Es
kimos”—and that Kinsey told her
a major cargo was freight, includ
ing garbage cans.
“Now that’s a surprise,” she de
clared, “because hungry dogs are
a problem in this area. They actu
ally eat people up there. You
would never get from the door to
the garbage can without being at
tacked.”
Telling of the “outlaw” pilots, j
she referred specifically to Eugene j
Joiner, of Kotzebue, whom she de- j
scribed as “a fighting pilot who j
won’t even apply for a CAB li
cense because he has such con-1
tempt for them.”
Miss Carrighar added that dur-!
ing a CAB hearing against Joiner ;
last August personal insults were
exchanged and H. George Kurtz,

WITH
PRESS-FORMED
BODY
The fastest priming, most efficient pump in the field to
day. Glass-smooth surfaces of steel in body and volute
assure fast flow of water. Press-formed body won*t
crack in freezing weather and is extremely resistant to rust and
corrosion. When wear occurs, a Rex Pump can be brought back
to its original tightness and efficiency by adjustment of the
patented Air Peeler or by replacement of an inexpensive steel
liner. Capacities range from 3,000 to 90,000 g.p.h. Ask at any
“NCCo.” machinery store for complete data.
