A?f FRANCISCO, Aag. I m '
W. A. Patterson, president af l aired

( th power af Ik government to
1 cancel any af th airway' permit.
Patterson was testifying at tha
hearing being eandacled by tha
civil aeronautics board aa Ihe ejaea
i Uoo af feeder line serving sis
western cities.
The townt involved are Santm
Barbara, Monterey. Salinas, Red
; Bluff and Eureka, in California, and
Klamath Falls, Ore. Southwest Air
wsys serves four of those points. It
wants to serve all alx. and have UAL
I eliminated from the field. South
, west's permits are expiring.
"We take no particular Interest
in whether Southwest Airways' per
mit Is extended one year or. 100
years," aald Pattcrton. "That up
to the government." ,.
No Authority
Bat whea it comes ta Ihe euesllsa
af aaspending I AL service. Patter
' aoa declared, "sur position Is euit
clear. 'He daa't leel that CAB ha
tha power ar authority to take any
thing away (rem as. If anything
la going ta be aeeompliahed here. It
will have ta be done in agreement
between all parties. It can't be daae
; by aa order."
He declared "certain people" are
, trying to get "certain things" by
I representing that UAL I inefficient.
I He remarked that in a recent talk
; in Des Moines, he tried to make the
point that UAL waa serving about
31 ismall cities and deserved more
subsidy because it was doing th
same thing the feeder lines were
; doing and the latter were getting
a large subsidy.
Bat ke aald CAL didn't want ta
get it af the small foams. 'We are
not rroaaa akimmera." he testified.
We're willing la take a little bad
along with tha goad."
Last Ditch Fight
-1'aitea Air Lines intends to flghf
to tha very last ditch." Patterson
added, "against any approach ta
thia thing that aeaamea we ar
inefficient ar wasteful operatora."
Patterwn aald "no." when Exam-
trier Paul N. Pletfter asked him if.
In a business way. It wouldn't b In
UAL Interest to abandon the six
cities ln question.
"It UAL eliminated all cities that
are unprofitable." he added, "then
we would soon be called 'cream

He said that Southwest Airway,
which want the lines Into those
cities, wot'.J gain only 400.000 a
year, since Southwest would not
obtain the through-passenger busi
ness which UAL handles.
But another CAB expert, Solomon
