$2.80 Alrport Charge Regretfable Says ATAC

President of fe) ” Air

ticket to oftect thelr security

Transport A fon of Can- ada, Angus C, Morrison, saya it is “regrettable that the govern- ment has seen fit to impose an airport’ charge at this time when mounting fuel prices and other operating costs already threaten to result in higher fares.”

Mr. Morrison was com: menting on the announcement that the government plans to levy an airport charge of $2.80 on each enplaning passenger in Canada at all airports operated by the Ministry of Transport, on Jan, 1 of 1974, “or as soon thereafter as administrative details can be arranged.” Thirty cents of the $2.80 would go to pay for civil aviation security measures undertaken by the government,

“Already faced with the prospect of higher air fares resulting from increased fuel, labor and other operating costs," Mr. Morrison said, “the

Funeral Service Held Yesterday For William Thomas Haywood

William Thomas Haywood, 65, of Kinnaird died Saturday

at the Trail Regional Hospital.

Rosary was recited Tues- day evening with the funeral mass held yesterday from St. Rita’s Catholic Church.

HEADQUARTERS

IN CASTLEGAR IS THE

Born in Poplar Point, Man., Feb. 25, 1908, Mr. Haywood came to Trail in the early 1980's and went to work for Cominco. He moved to Kinnaird in 1949 and retired in 1972,

He was a member of St. Rita's Catholic Church,

Mr. Haywood is survived by four sons, Ronald of Edmonton, Ed of Vancouver, David of Kelowna and Pat at home; three daughters, Mrs. Len (Connie). Piche of Hixon, Mrs. Ray (Diane) Peacey of Rutland and Darlene at home; six grandchildren; a brother Ed of Winnipeg; three sisters, Mrs. Stephanie Dubos and Mrs. Rose Holmes, both of Winnipeg and Mrs. Stella Decembrini of Trail.

He was predeceased by his wife.

the of an se charge couldn't have come at a more inoppor- tune time.”

The ATAC president noted that fuel costs have risen dramatically in recent weeks and are expected to continue increasing over the winter, a situation which he said “can only result in increased fares.”

Mr. Morrison said’ that it will be difficult, if not impos- sible, to make the arrangments necessary to implement the airport charge by Jan. 1, 1974. He pointed out that, among other things, new tariffs must be filed with the air transport committee for approval and timetables reprinted to reflect the increased fares,

The announcement affects not only Canadian carriers using Ministry of Transport airports but foreign airlines operating out of Canada, Mr. Morrison said, “and the ramifi- cations are entirely too wide- ranging to expect implementa- tion on less than one-month's notice."

The ATAG president noted that the 3

government charge for civil air security covers less than half the actual costs involved and the air carriers almost certainly will be forced to add another 50 cents to the cost of each airline

charged $3.80 more per ticket effective on January 1 of 1974, or whenever the airport charge takes effect,” Mr. Morrison said, “plus an additional in- crease to cover other escalating costs.”

Mr. Morrison said that the transport minister appetred to imply that only direct users benefit. from Canada’a air transport system. “In fact, the country's air carrier network benefits virtually every seg- ment of the. economy in a variety ways,
