The mmsttnfr was in rp sponse to a letter from Cham- c-er Manager Lion mchcii cu ing the inadequate transpor tation service offered by air linpR in the tvTprifnrH area Highjight of Bez's address was announcement that West Coast, at the request of the ' chamber of commerce, has filed a new reduced rate ex cursion fare between Medford nnri Pnrtlnnd anH hptuiuin Medford and San Francisco. rne new tare to De effective April 28 (subject to approval) will be the lowest ever of fered between the three cities, Bez saia.

Service Faster . The advantage nf the mn. solidation "are legion,". Bez siaiea. "tne service Is faster ana Detter." When customers dial West Coast reservations in Medford their calls will be handled by a sales person speaking from the nerve cen ter ot operations In Seattle, No other airline serving Med. ford offers customers this service, Bez pointed out. i Under the heading of "What Medford Can Do for West Coast," the a 1 r 1 1 n e s asked for "genuine local sup port" on the choice of five daily departures offered here and demands by Medford that West Coast Airlines be per mitted to compete with its principal competitor on an equal basis." The West Coast airlines al so ask for "equal opportunity to serve Medford," by inaug urating the type of non-stop aervice aesired to California. In concluding the report the airlines asked that Medford show its appreciation by peti tioning CAB Chairman Alan Boyd to grant West Coast nothing more than an "equal opportunity, a fair chance," to give the typo of California service desired by removing "the route restrictions that protect our principal compet itor from one of the basic principles of the American free enterprise system." While delivering his com pany's reply to McNeil's let ter, Bez cited the consistent air-mlndedncss of Medford residents. Ho was accompanied here by L. W.
