History Repeats

In a special interview with Jack Lee, aged Kodiak pros pector, about the curtailment of the crab industry here iR Kodiak, Jack had this to say.
 History is repeating itself. Back in 1902 and 1903 the US Government lowered the tariff on Japanese cod fish and threw 250O people out of work at Unga and Unalaska, because the Aleutian Chain fishermen couldn't compete with the Japanese price when they focded the market with their cod. And now the King Crab Industry is faced with the same situation"

The report camel through tha' American ANia- tion Daily and the plan to elim- mate the above two carriers would leave Northwest and Pan American Airways as the only two companies serving Alaska.
 This decision, according to the Board, must be submitted to the White House for final approval.
 The report by the CAB goes on to state that the Board fav- ors the renewal permanently. of the Northwest Airlines' Seattle-Anchorage-Tokyo route and the granting of authority | for Pan American to serve An chorage.
 l A.G. WoodIey, President of Pacific Northern Airlines was in Kodiak on Thursday and ad- dressed a special meeting of the Kodiak Chamber of Con- merce.
 Ut is inconcevable to me that the Civil Areonautics Board could be contemplating elimination of Pacific North ern Airlines from service be- tween the United States and Alaska as reported in the A. merica Aviation Daily today" said Woody. "The Board Bur ca Counsel has formally re- commended renewal of Pacific l Northerns overseas routes in. to the additional points of | Ketchikan and Fairbanks. The Board Chief Examiner has al so recommended in unequivocal language that Pacific North ern Airlines overseas be re- newed." he stated.
 Pacific Notaern Airlines provides more air service to the Territory of Alaska both within Alaska and between | Alaska and the United States than any other carrier, includ- ing Pan American and North west.ln its overseas operations Pacific Northern Airlines re- quires less government sub- sidy than any other carrier. During the entire course of the extensive public hear ings that have been conduct ed by the Board for the past two years, the one indisput- able fact that has always been apparent and has never been challenged is that Pacific 1 Northern Airlines is the lar gest and most economical car 1 rier serving the Territory.
