PAGE EIGHT THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE—JUNEAU, ALASKA TUESDAY, MAY 21, 1946, ROTARY CLUB IS | ADDRESSED TODAY BY PAA OFFICIAL Canneries Brmgmg Men North by Air-Assembly Banquet Date Is Set Joe D. Fessio, Traffic Manager, Alaska Region, Pan American ‘World Airways, spoke on “PAA Ser- vice in Alaska” before menibers of the Juneau Rotary Club this noon at their regular in the Baranof Gold Room. In Juneau on a general inspection tour, Mr. Fessio said many cannery authorities had told him without adequate air travel available this Spring, the Alaska fishing industry would have been forced to curtail or possibly abandon much of its ac- tivity in the Territory. He said that the large majori of this years' cahnery workers had been transported by air. “We can't order an excess of planes and have them ready in case of shipping strikes or other emer- gencies,” he said. “But we can, and will continue, to meet Alaska’s prob- lems of travel with the best service we can possibly offer.” New ideas and improvement for passenger service are constantly be- g added to the interior of PAA’s aircraft, Mr. Fessio said—“Even if it's only in such a small matter as providing paper slippers.” New Craft Scheduled Head officials of the PAA region- al line in Alaska are mostly old- timers, men who are in Alaska be- cause they want to be here, the speaker pointed out. He added that he himself was in the Seattle head- quarters in charge of Alaskan traf- fic, because he believed that the future holds tremendous possibili- ties for transportation and other developments in the Territory. In the next few months four- engine aircraft is expected to be added to the Alaska line, he said. At y luncheon-meeting present PAA operates Douglas DC-3 | planes throughout the Territory. During the business session of the meeting, the Rev. Robert Treat, a guest of Rotary, announced that the Boumn-sponsond overnight trip .llllllIIIIIIIIIIlIIIIIIIlIlIIIIIIIlllllllfllllIIIlIIIIIIIlIIIIlllIIIIIIlIIIIIlIIllIIlIIIIIIIIII- | |for Cub Scouts to the Americsn Legion Camp at Duck Creek will be held this week end.
