Ask CAB for
Merger Today

NEW YORK, Dec. 81 (AP).-
Pan American World Anyways
and Trans World Airlines bid
today for Government approval
of a merger into a globe-gir-
ding, $1.2 billion system.
The proposal, If approved,
would alter United States in
ternational policy by eliminat-
ing competition between Amer
lean carriers on the busy North
Atlantic route, where 16 foreign
airlines have won about two
thirds of the traffic.
The merger agreement, in
the making nearly a year, was
signed yesterday by directors of
Pan Am and TWA. It was to
be filed today with the Civil
Aeronautics Board.
CAB approval, plus that of
President Kennedy, are re-
CURED because OF the mterna-
tional ramifications.

]
In revenues and passengers
carried, 1t would replace United
Air Lines as the Nations larg-
est carrier and would surpass
even the proposed combination
of American and Eastern Air
lines, now second and fourth
ranking.
A CAB examiner three weeks
ago recommended rejection of
the American-Easte merger,
involving domestic routes al
most exclusively, on monopoly
grounds.
The TWA Pan Am plan
added to a series of merger
proposals In the air, railroad
and highway segments of pub

them based on financial dis
tress.
In many of these unions
have objected, fearing loss of
jobs.
A new operating company
proposed in the agreement to
run both aircraft and proper
ties of the merged firm would
be headed by Juan l.. Trippe,
Pan Am president. The No. 2
position would go to Charles
c. Tillinghast, jr., president of
TWA.
The complicated plan calls
for the new company, Pan
American World Airlines, to is

elbow. He's been using me as
