Bili Would Make Air
Carriers Ineligible to
Receive Federal Subsidy
WASHINGTON UP) — Chairman
Warren Manuson, <D-Wn.>, of the
Senate Commerce Committee in
troduced a bill Monday to make
all domestic trunk line air car
riers ineligible to receive federal
subsidy payments on intrastate
and interstate operation, except
in Alaska and Hawaii.
He said he introduced the bill
in the Senate at the request of
the Civil Aeronautics Board.
The board, he reported, said the
position of the domestic airlines
has changed sufficiently so that it
is no longer realistic for them
to assume that there is govern
ment subsidy on which they may
rely and that the government
should make this clear through
appropriate legislation. The board
said that with few exceptions the
domestic trunk lines have not re
ceived subsidy payments for the
last decade.

Italian Climber
Suffers Severely
Frostbitten Feet
ANCHORAGE UP) — An Italian
mountaineer flown here last night
with severely frostbitten feet
jubilantly reported that he and
his five companions had success
fully scaled the sheer south face
of Mt. McKinley, never before
climbed.
The Italian expedition with
several of its members suffering
from frostbite, fought its way to
the summit on July 19.
The feat was heralded by vet
eran climbers here as one of the
greatest on the mountain since the
first successful ascent in 1913 by
a four-man party led by Rev.
Hudson Stuck, Episcopal Arch
deacon of the Yukon.
Bush pilot Don Sheldon of Tal
keetna flew Gian (Jack' Canali
to Anchorage Monday night for
treatment of his feet. Sheldon
planned to return immediately to
the mountain to evacuate the other
climbers and bring them here as
soon as possible.
Canali, although unable to
walk, was in high spirits, Sheldon
said Canali’s companions had
“sledded him down the mountain
to a slab of ice at about the
10,900-foot level.” There the pilot
landed his plane and evacuated
the mountaineer.
Dr. William J. Mills Jr., an ex
pert on cold weather injury, said
Canali is suffering from moderate
to severe frostbite and would
have to remain in a hospital for
from six to eight weeks.
Speaking through an interpre
ter, Canali said the expedition
encountered high winds, snow and
sub-zero temperatures on the
mountain. Out of a month, they
had only five days of good climb
ing weather.
The climbers had to hammer
over G,000 feet of rope into the
mountain to make the ascent and
relay supplies from their base
camp at 11,500 feet.
“It wasn’t a climb to reach
the summit—it was a fight all
the way,” said Canali.
Of Anchorage businessman John
Stocco and New York copywriter
Armand Petrecca, who quit the
party after a clash with Cassin,
Canali said: “The two were not
mountain climbers, nor were they
in physical condition. They could
not have made the climb.”
G i r d w o o d mountaineer Bob
Goodwin stayed with the expedi
tion until a week ago when he
had to return to his job.
He was described by Canali as
“the only person capable of mak
ing the ascent who could have
been of help.”
