An Open Letter to Our Friends and
Customers in ST. Croix
Most of you have been flying with us for many
~years-some Of you since the Airline began. We
appreciate your patronage and have always tried
to provide good and convenient service to each
of youS
AS you know, traffic has increased over the
old days and we have had to add more and more
flights in order to meet the increase. AS we added
flights, it meant that schedules had to be tight
ened SO that now there is very little time left be
tween the arrival of a plane on one flight and its
departure on another.
If we have a delay in a planes departure on
one flight, it means automatically that there will
be a delay on all the succeeding flights which are
to be flown by the same plane.
An airplane is different from your car-one
doesn't Just step in and drive away. All Of the
weight aboard the aircraft must be added-up and
distributed properly so that it flies smoothly and
safely. The compilation of the items aboard the
plane and their placement takes a few minutes of
time and must take place before the flight de-
parts. The computations involved are important to
your safety and cannot be hurried.
Since vie are sure that each of you wants
your flight to go and come on time, you will un-
derstand why it is that we must insist that all
passengers arrive and be checked-in at least 80
minutes before departure time.
Our employees are instructed to "%close-out
flights according to this schedule and are not per-
mitted to accept passengers who arrive later than
80 minutes before departure of our flights.
We are sending this open letter to our friends
and customers so that you will know why we
must take this action.
Yours For Better Service,

High Quotas
In UGF Drive
Tough Hurdle
By Joan j. Stern

Quotas and returns remained
widely astray of each other as
the United Givers' Fund cam
paign in Twinbrook entered its
last few days.
Less than one-third of the quo

% by the three section chairmen.
Although there was greater re-
sistance this year on the part of
the would-be donors, there are
those who feel a major factor be-
hind the tagging returns may
well be quotas which are unreal
iStic.
The west end of Rockville,
which his gone considerably over
its quota, was given a much
lower one. Twinbrook sections
quotas, ranging from S1140 to
$1482, may be unobtainable under
any circumstances.
With this disadvantage over
their heads, workers found con-
sistent resistance to their plea
final blow.
Workers reported the following
reasons given to them by those
who refused to contribute to the
residential drive:
. Financial inability to donate
. The husbands generous re.
Spouse at the office to pressures,
frequently heavy, to donate. In
some homes that was accepted as
a reasonable effort for UGF to

evident resentment.
