It illustrates how determined Pan American Air- ways is to put across its policy of “one company” to operate over- seas air routes. What happened was that Congressmen were planning to fly overseas, largely at the in- stance of Pan American Airways, to “study” the one-company idea. However, for once in the his- tory of government, the Civil Aero- nautics Board put its foot down. ruled that the Congressmen would have to pay their own way. This came as a rude shock, and the junket is now off The request for a free ride came from GOP Congressman Charlas ‘Wolverton New Jersey, able Chairman of the House Interstate and Foreign Commerce Commit- tee. Under CAB rules, the air- lines cannot carry passengers free without special permission of the CAB, so Wolverton wrote asking for that permission. However, ex-Senator Josh Lee of Oklahcma, Acting Chairman of Civil Aeronautics, after consult- ing with other board members, said no. Incidentally, one of the Con- gressmen who wanted to go along to “study air routes” was Evan Howell, Illinois Republican. Even though Howell has just been ap- pointed a judge of the U. S. Court of Claims, and would not be kack in Congress to vote on the “one company” plan for overseas air- lines, he was included in the pro- posed free ride. The Committee, incidentally, had held up its vote on the one-com- pany idea until members could take this overseas trip inspired by Pan American Airways And when the CAB turned thumbs down, Pan American was g0 eager to put the junket across that Pan Am officials suggested a trip on airplane credit cards, by which the Congressmen would travel on credit until Congress could ap- propriate the money next Janu- ary.
