dren to choose their own pro-
grams within that limit.
Your choosing the pro-
grams is the more desirable
plan as you would undoubt-
edly make a wiser choice than
children would.
This also. prevents dis
agreement between the chill
dren as to which program
they will view. The most
important thing about any
plan is, of course, to stick by
it.
If you weaken once, you're
lost.
This requires a bit of effort
on your part at first. but
your problem will disappear
when you convince your chill
dren that you mean business.

Many island Residents In Attendance At CAB Hearing, Favor Qualification

The majority of the residents of Kodiak Island who appeared before the Civil Aeronautics Board hearing held last week favored certification of Kodiak Airways by the Board
 The hearings were held in the Transient Officers Quarters on the Naval Station Friday and Saturday of last week. Board examiner was Paul Pfeiffer.
 Twentythree of the witnesses that appeared before the examiner emphasized the need for scheduled service to various Island points. Two witnesses, Paul B. Hansen and Park Munsay, vigorously opposed certification.
 Hansen, a former small plane operator in the area, stated that the weather here makes scheduled flights impossible. He also gave as other reasons for not granting cer- tification, the decline in village population, and the seasonal na- ture of activity in the area.
 He said he thinks he can operate if Kodiak Airways folds profit ably and without subsidy" q will step in if Kodiak Airways folds," he said, and bid on the mail contract" Hansen stated that Kodiak Airways is "over-expand- ed"
 Hansen, in questioning Bob Hall, owner of the airways seeking cer- tification, asked: Why didn't you cut down in your operation when business started to decline Gin 1857 and 1959)?" Halls reply was: You can't fire 'em when you are short, and hire 'em back when they are needed" Hall stated it takes so long to train adequate personnel for Alaskan conditions.
 Hansen was the only witness ap- bearing Friday who did not favor certification. Other witnesses, in- cluding Wayne Axelson, Superin- tendent at PAF' canneries at Lazy Bay; Chuck Turner, representing Kadiak Fisheries and Alaska King Crab; Robert Springhill, of Moser Bay; Lowell Wakefield, of Wake field Fisheries; Bill Pinnell, of Pinnell and Tollifson, guides; P. Marinkowitch of Larsen Bay, Bob LaFollette, representing the Ko- diak Chamber of Commerce, Mayor Merrill Coon, Father Sumner; and many others, each spoke favoring certification in order to have regu- lar mail and passenger service around the Island. Reasons given were as an aid to the various com panies' operations and to bolster the Island economy.
