UNJUSTIFIED INCREASE IN FARES

ONJOOIIFIEDI NCREASE IN FAKES
WHETHER THE Caribbean Atlantic Anlnes, Inc. rea-
lied it or not, a heavy blow was dealt to the ECONOMY, and
particularly the tourist trade of St. Croix when airpIane rates
were increased, effective October 18th (oday). From what
ever angle the matter is approached, tn. increased rates seem
entirely uni justified. If it is seen from the standpoint of operat
ing expenses, the increase fails, for airplane tariffs all over
the world are being reduced, and this BY practically all air.
lines, including Pan American. With the war over, and mate
rails and equipment down, it seems unusual that the Carib-
bean Atlantic would move to increase fares. And what makes
the matter seem more inconsistent with good faith is that
fares from San Juan to Cudad Truj lilo, which cover a distance
greater than from St. Croix to San Jan, are actually higher
BUT H Caribbean Atlantic Arlnes, Inc, taking such
a step should by al fmeans have taken into consideration the
travelling public, and announced the increases earlier. In
fact, as the principal means of travel in and out of the Islands,
the air service of theCaribbean Atlantic Airines falls in the
category Of a public utility and as such should be subject to
a measure of legislative control, as both to operation and ia
riffs. And this the Ailines know very well. 1t is no doubt
for this reason that the new tariff was filed with the Air Traf-
fc Conference of America in Washington. And even if the
local legislature could not pass upon it, ordinary courtesy
should have dictated to the Airines that the public be given
an opportunity to air its views on the matter.
THEN H Caribbean should remember that it re-
ceived wholehearted and unselfish support when it first stepp
ed forth. The people of St, Croix were willing to pay their
way to a makeshift airport at PrincesSe and travel in an out
NODDED three-engine' version of an age gone by. And even
when another airline offered competition, and boats ran fire.
quently, our people gave the support which helped to make
it possible for the Caribbean Atlantic Arnes to come Of age.
It is for this reason that we say that there is owed to the
public, on more than one count, a certain regard and consi-
deration, which every sound business seeks to give those who
deal with it.

Alexander's letter, supported

the airline that there seems
little or no justification for the
increase which it so arbitrari-
ly places upon the travelling
public OF the Virgin Islands. 1t
is not too late for the Carib-
bean Atlantic Airlines to recon
slider this move. With the air
plane as the principal means of
travelling to and from the Is

ness on the upgrade, an in
crease at this time could go a
long way towards seriously
hampering one of the principal
economic possibilities of Saint

selfish support for many a

Hotel Faces Denial
0fLieense for Pool

The management of the Am
bassador Hotel has been requested
to attend a hearing before the
District License Board at 10 am.
next Friday to show cause why
the license of the hotel swimming
pool should not beSrevoked on the
grounds that the pool is a menace
to public health. 4 ss
The hearing, called by Assistant
Corporation Counsel. Robert D.
Wise. chairman of the License
Board, is the result Of complaint
made many months ago by the
health department concerning the
POOLS water connection.
The department contends that
the pool is potential health
menace because 1t is fed by water
entering at the bottom. 1t be-
lieves that water from the pool
could flow back into the public
system, polluting the drinking
water Of the hotel and nearby
area.
A License was granted for the
pool last fall on the understanding
that structural changes would be
made by the hotel. eliminating the
situation, according to spokes-
man of the District Government.
Last week, plans for these changes
were sent from the hotel to the
Health Department. The plans
were rejected.
The matter was turned over to
the Corporation Counsefs office
for action by the Commissioners
after william II. Cary, jr., director
of the Public Health Engineering
Bureau, notified the superintend-
ent of licenses that the pools
license should be revoked.
