Oregon Delegation
Writes President
Honorable Dwight D. Eisenhower,
President of the United States,
The White House
Dear Mr. President:
The entire Oregon delegation in
Congress is deeply disturbed over
the tentative action by the Civil
Aeronautics Board in the States
Alaska Case (CAB Docket No.
5756) which would reduce service j
and eliminate operations of two
licensed air carriers flying between
the Pacific Northwest and the Ter
ritory of Alaska.
It is the unanimous opinion of
the Senators and Representatives
from the State of Oregon that:
1. The four carriers?now serving
Alaska points from Portland. Ore
gon and Seattle-Tacoma, Washing
ton should all be certified. This
is essential to maintain adequate
transportation to the Territory for
convenience of the public and for
national defense.
2. The routes of the four airlines
involved; namely, Pan-American
World Airways, Northwest Airlines,
Pacific Northern Airlines, and Al- j
aska Airlines, should be unchang- '
ed. Competitive air service between j
the Pacific Northwest and Alaska I
will be continued, and monopoly
in air service thus avoided.
The CAB, by recent vote, has
decided to eliminate Pacific North
ern Airlines and Alaska Airlines
from Portland, Seattle-Tacoma ser
vice and to confine both carriers
to intra-Alaska routes on which
they are permanently certified.
This would virtually destroy the
two airlines whose organization
and equipment have been expand
ed to a point where restricted op
erations would not be efficient.
We, as representatives of Ore
gon In the Congress, are partic
ularly concerned because enforce
ment of the tentative CAB rule
would virtually eliminate all di
rect air service 'between our state
and one of its great potential mar
kets. the Territory of Alaska. This
would he discriminating again s t
Oregon and highly unfair.
Investors in the two companies
would lose their money: state-side
facilities would he abandoned, and
many employees would be deprived
of their jobs. Air service to the
Territory would be reduced, and
in the event of emergency, Alaska
would be wholly dependent upon
two carriers. Steamship passeng
er service between the States and
Alaska has just been suspended,
making the Territory wholly de
pendent upon air travel. This em
phasizes the need for more, not
less air service.
Postponement of a decision on
the States-Alaska Case until the
CAR has completed a contemplated
investigation of intra-Alaska air
routes and operators is unanim
ously opposed because such action
would work an undue hardship on
the carriers involved in their ef
forts to process financing essential
to their service and facilities.
We wish to re-emphasize the po
sition expressed in this letter re
presents the unanimous opinion of
the Oregon Congressional delega
tion. Your attention is called to
a similar letter from the Congres
sional delegation of the State of
Washington and the Territory of
Alaska.
