JOE DI MAGGIO Is a big
shot in New York. But if
someone there asks him about
San Francisco, his home town,
he knows all about it. It is the
same way with many of our top
flight executives . . . and with
hundreds of their former home
These men who now sit at
desks in the home office did
not always sit there. Most of
them started in a smaller post
and a smaller town going
from town to town as they ad
vanced along the upward road.
This is particularly true of
executives who have come up
through our sales department.
Most of them have worked
In places which are just a dot
on the map. They know the
people there by the most in
timate of methods -having been
one of them. They know the
problems of the people and of
the communities.
The result is that when prob
lems of policy come up affect
ing almost any community you
can name, some executive knows
intimately how it will affect his .
old friends Sam and Henry and
Jack, who live (here. It makes
for sympathetic understanding,
which, we hope, has always
been and will ever be, a mark
of this Company's relations with
every community where it does
business.

Tremendous Rains in passen
ger and airmail business here
were made by United Air Lines
in 1939 as compared with 1938,
it was revealed by figures re
leased today by Max C. Henne,
Medford manager.
In 1939, 1395 passengers got
on and 1299 got off United
Mainlincrs here, a total of 2694.
In the previous year 755 pas
sengers got on and 675 got off,
a total of 1430. In December 83
passengers got on and 67 off, a
total of 150, as compared with
19 on and 15 off. a total of 34
in the same month of 1938.
Airmail figures showed that
Medford d ispatched 23 ,3 1 1
pounds of correspondence
e q u i v a 1 e nt to approximately
932,440 letters in 1939 as com
pared with 17,892 in 1938.
Revenue Doubles
The local passenger business
gain in 1939 as compared with
that of 1938 was 88 per cent and
the airmail increase was 30 per
cent. The company registered a
gain in revenue here of 110 per
cent, Henne stated.
Reports from other cities on
the company's network indicate
that the Medford percentage
gains are substantially ahead of
those for most other points,
though large increases were reg
istered for the airline as a whole,
Henne related.
Generally improved business
conditions, more service than
Medford ever before has en
joyed, travel to and from the
world's fairs and the normal
growth of airline travel all were
factors contributing to the best
mowing which United Air Lines
has made in its more than 13
years of serving this city, Henne
said. He pointed out that service
improvements included -three
daily round trips with 21-pas
senger Mainliners which pro

commodations to care for mount-
