CAB Raises
Local Airline
Mail Subsidy
ny the Assoclated Press

Ds lh0 AoeOCtulcu EIeoS
The Civil Aeronautics Board
has disclosed a three-pronged
liberalization of its attitude to-
ward mail subsidies for local
service airlines.
In proposing an annual SUBJ
sidy payment Of $2.074,706 for
Mohawk Airlines, Utica, N. Y,
the CAB:
/. Agreed, for the first time,
to underwrite to a limited ex-
tent the purchase of larger,
faster aircraft.
2. Granted. for mail rate pur-
poses, a 9.5 per cent rate OF
return on Mohawk's investment
For several years the CAB has
permitted only an 8 per cent
rate of return on investment
in calculating the amount Of
mail subsidy it would grant an
airline.
8. Recognized the right OF
feeder airlines to pay chief ex-
ecutive officers an annual sal.
airy up to $4,000. In 1850 the
CAB set the maximum salary
at $4,000 a year, but raised
the amount in 1852 to $4,000
and in 1856 to $4,000.
The CAB has held in the past
that an increase in the size OF
equipment ought to improve the
economic position Of an air.
line and should not increase
the net burden on the Govern
ment.
But yesterday the board said
there is abundant evidence that
no local service airline can be-
come self-sufficient while fiyins
only DC-3 equipment.
