BLAZING WAY FOR ALASKA AIR ROUTES
Innumerable daily press and magazine articles long
have resounded with forceful assertions to the effect
Alaska is sure to be spanned with major round-world
air routes over which a tremendous volume of rapid
traffic will pass.
But practical operators of the world’s great airlines
find that many barriers must be hurdled before such
routes can be opened. Suitable planes, airfields, fuel
ing, supplies, navigation, financing and other physical
and material needs are seen as readily available.
But there remains to be provided the more difficult
matters of reciprocal rights for the various participat
ing air lnes:to operate over territory now under flags of
various nations. America, Canada and others of coun-l
• tries lying along the future ,great Occidental-Oriental ‘
lines must first arrive at some understanding as a prac
tical way to carry on unhampered by national restric
tions. Referring editorially to this important phase of
the situation the Juneau Empire make the following
pertinent remarks:
The Civil Aeronautics Board is seeking answers
to problems on the long-range aspect of interna- !
tional air transportation, a matter which should be
of the utmost importance to this territory which is
destined to be on the future ’round the world

routes. The problems are many, and the board is -1
taking a democratic way of answering them by
furnishing upon request a list of questions in print
ed form.
These may be obtained by writing to the Public
Information Office of the Civil Aeronautics Board,
Washington, D. C.
Before the war has ended the United States must
decide upon a definite policy regarding these mat
ters:
Whether there should be a reciprocal exchange
with other countries of general rights of
air passage, together with the right to land for re- 3
fueling and other technical purposes, in interna
tional air transport, and in the event rights of tnms- *
sit through United States Territory should be 3
granted to foreign carriers, Whether restrictions as 3
to the use of airports and airways should be impos- 3
ed; 3
Whether foreign flag carriers which may be au- •
thorized to pick up and discharge international traf- j
fic within the United States should be permitted to
do so only at a few points on or near our coasts or
borders, or whether they should be allowed to do
so at points within the interior of the country. !
