,1 f I '1 United Air Lines Motion May Hold Up CAB Cases It may be some time before it Is known which airlines are to service which Oregon communi ties and whether Medford is to have airline connections with Klamath Falls. United Air lines has filed a motion before the civil aeronau tics board whiclj, if allowed, will defer the proceedings now be fore the CAB indefinitely. Crux of United's action is that the ap plication for merger filed by West Coast airlines and South west airways renders all records taken in the Southwest renewal United suspension and the West Coast renewal-United suspension cases obsolete and invalid. Unit ed proposes that these cases and also me reopenea aaamunai vau-fornia-Nevada service case , be deferred until a decision is reached by the board on the mer ger application. United contends, in its motion, that "the Southwest renewal case was tried on the basis of Southwest having a route from Los Angeles to Medford; the West Coast renewal case was tried on the basis of West Coast having a route from Medford to Bellingham." United claims further that "if the two com panies are merged, neither of the foregoing bases will be cor rect. Similarly, it would not make good sense or a valid rec ord to try the reopened California-Nevada case on the basis of Southwest having a route ex tending to Medford when as a result of the merger case, it might turn up with a route ex tending to Bellingham." Attorneys for United have told the board that the purpose of their motion is to "offer a con structive solution to the con fused state of affairs which pre sently confronts the board as a result of the Southwest-West Coast merger application." The motion, which was filed with the CAB in Washington April 26, makes three proposals for a new line of action: 1. The motion's abstruse legal language says, in effect, that the board should consider Southwest and West Coast re newal cases separately from the issues of suspending United's services in some Pacific coast communities. The renewal and suspension aspects Qf. the two cases are now being considered together. 2. The proposed renewal of me operating tranchlse of South west and West Coast, involving addition of some stops, should be consolidated into one case with the Southwest-West Coast renewal case. 3. The whole matter should be deferred until the board has decided whether it will allow Southwest and West Coast to combine into one line. United recommends further that if the merger is allowed, action on the cases should be deferred still further until after operating ex perience has been obtained.
