WE MAY BE ALL WET BUI
AIRFLANE RATES ARE DROPPING
FAST
SOME COMPANIES ARE OFFERING
PASSENGER FARES TO SEATTLE for $60.00
FROM ANCHOROLE - 10* PER UND OR FREIGHT
Homer is paying approximately 20 cents a mile to anchorage, altho
the companies have reduced the freight rote to 4 cents per pound
on perishables. The big companies are inviting competition by the
little fellows on the I'omer run...They are liable to get it this
summer.
a year ago "hen we suggested & cent fares for Glaska, the idea was
scoffed at by the carriers. now at $ 60.00 to Seattle it is just
about that. That looks like a fantastic idea one year is a reality
the next. We will be riding to Cinchorage for ten dollars yet.....
