Civil Aeronautics Board Uncertain
Wliat Role It Will Have In Alaska
By FRANK W. VAILLE
Associated Press Special Service
WASHINGTON, Uf) — Some 83
Alaska cases are pending before
the iCivil Aeronautics Board but
the big issue doesn’t have a for
mal docket number.
It’s the question: What role will
CAB play in Alaska under
Statehood?
The CAB itself doesn’t know the
answer yet. But its legal counsel
is going through the law books in
hopes of arriving at a decision.
William Kloepfer Jr., chief in
formation officer, said he hopes
the agency soon will be able to
state its position.
“Very obviously, there are go
ing to be some changes in our
role,” he said.
Several matters unique to Alas
ka complicate the decision.
The CAB now has no say over
carriers operating wholly within
the boundaries of an existing
state. But existing intrs^tate car
riers don’t receive government
subsidies or carry mail as is the
case for the intra-Alaska opera
tors.
Another question revolves
around the status of carriers op
erating on the States-Alaska run,
now considered an oversease route
subject to Presidential considera
tion. Will these be considered nor
mal interstate operations under
Statehood, subject only to CAB
jurisdiction, or will their status
be altered by the need to fly over
Canadian territory?
The question of the legal effect
of Statehood on CAB’s status al
ready has been raised by Alaskan
carriers in the board-ordered in
vestigation aimed at reducing the
number of carriers in States
Alaska service.
A hearing has been scheduled
tentatively to begin Feb. 19, 1959,
but probably will 1be postponed
in line with a Senate-passed res
olution urging delay.
The need for clarifying CAB’s
Alaskan role also is considered
by some to be at least partially
responsible for the long delay in
reaching a decision in the big
intra-Alaska service case. Argu
ments in this complicated pro
ceeding, involving some 49 dock
ets and possible realignment o'
routes in all but southeast Alaska,
were heard a year ago today.
Other pending cases give strong
emphasis to Alaska’s -dependence
on air travel and its claim to bein g
the flyingest area under the U. S.
flag.
Involving collectively 11 air
lines, the applications for the
most part concern proposed route
extensions within Alaska or to
neighboring points in Canada and
the Yukon Territory.
At least three, however, re
flect Alaska’s strategic location on
the transpolar air lanes, two of
these were filed by Alaska Air
lines.
In one, filed in 1951, the car
rier seeks authority to fly from
Fairbanks to Paris via Oslo and
London. The second application
announced that tourist travel
would be permitted in Siberia. In
this application, Alaska seeks per
mission to fly from Seattle, An
chorage or Fairbanks to points in
Siberia via Nome.
The third application, by Wien
Alaska Airlines, proposes service
from Fairbanks to Oslo, Stock
holm, Copenhagen, London, Paris
and Berlin.

BEAR BITES THE HAND
THAT FEEDS IT . . .
