The board held t week that flights between this country and regularity in the dé- R, Europe should not be restricted to one company and authorized three United States air lines to operate across the North Atlantic. It is possible, of course, that Congress will countermand this executive de- cision by enacting Senator McCarran’s bill to create a single all-American flag line with exclusive right to transport United States mail—a joint lie in which the several American applicants for permission to fly the Atlantic would share. We hope, however, that Congress will not choosz to establish such a monopoly. The competitive system adopted by the CAB meets the wishes of most of our domestic airplane carriers. Chey are not fearful that rivalry with one gnother ¥ill render them unable to meet foreign competition. They ask only a fair field. This means, of course, that foreign-flag airlines, which are likely to be Govern- ment corporations of the sort suggested by Senator McCarran, should not be so heavily subsidized as to make competition with them impossible.
