If the CAB approves, the new weight minimums will go into ef- fect July 11. The 100-pound minimum will perm(t smaller shipments of cer- tain commodities to Alaska with a consequent saving under the new low rates that CAB recently ap- proved for Northwest, J. W. Mar- iner, director of cargo for NWA, said. The recent rate slash, reported by the company as between 17 and 26 percent under previous rates, applies to Alaska-bound shipments out of the Twin Cities and Se- attle-Tacoma. The rates became effective on June 7 with CAB ap- proval. These rates will apply to 100- pound shipments pending CAB ap- proval of the smaller weight min- imums, the company said. e - DOELKER GOING SOUTH TO ATTEND CONVENTION Dr. G. A.
