Oor job is flying. Up here every day we have
an opportunity to eee the changes occurring on
the ground. Take the Pacific Coast, for instance.
; When United Air lines started its service
here 17 years ago, we saw the West as primarily
a great fanning, mining and lumbering area. Now
we see it growing into a leading industrial empire. ;
Spread out as though in a vast panorama,
one sees iron ore and coal pouring into new
. steel plants.. The lumber industry is discovering
important new products. Rivers are unleashing
vital electric power. One-third of all the aluminum
in the U. S. is being produced on the Pacific Coast.
New plants are manufacturing airplanes, syn
thetic rubber, new chemicals, new plastics.'
In this developing industrial empire, air trans
portation is becoming mcreasingly important. The
airplane, through its speed and flexibility, can .
further cot travel time for people, merchandise
and mail between factories, farms and outlets
spread through this country and abroad. '
Because it sees these changes taking ' place,
United Air lines is shaping plans to ensure that
the airplane will take its full part in that impor
tant future of the West. The millions which
United has already invested to provide air trans
portation to the cities of California, Oregon,
Washington and British Columbia will be aug
mented with many more millions in the post-war -period.
United will continue to furnish superior V
service for the air travel and shipping needs of
the Pacific Coast. .
Once only 8 cities on the West Coast were
served by United. Now there are 24. In the com
ing Age of Flight there will be many more, and
they will be brought ever closer to the busy trade
centers of the country with bigger and faster
United Mainliners.
In this way United is constantly watching
and planning serving you in this new industrial
empire. The way we hope you will look at it is
as proof of United's desire to be considered a
partner in the progress of the Pacific Coast.
