The Cedar Rapids airport commission approved a 1964 budget totaling 169 800 with 123 000 from airport income and 46 800 from taxes. Wages rise to 62 920, capital equipment drops to 41 900, other purchases climb to 64 980. The plan also details terminal building changes and concourse expansions awaiting city council approval.
Engineers and a subcommittee, including Jack Albert and James E. Kelly, draft final plans for the building addition. The rejected idea was a glassed in walkway along the drive side, deemed too costly and narrow to be useful. The addition will feature a covered walk for weather protection. No decisions were reached on rest rooms, doors, or heating compatibility.
Rates show weekly by carrier at 45 cents and mail options for night and afternoon editions. Night edition six issues weekly cost 1.25 per month, 13 per year, while afternoon and Sunday seven issues cost 1.35 per month, 14 per year. Mail to other states and territories is 23.40 yearly. No mail subscriptions in towns with Gazette carrier service.
The commission discussed three items with planning pending and a firm spokesman noting no firm cost estimates yet. He suggested up to 20 dollars per square foot for a canopy project. A breezeway between the manager's house and garage was proposed. Buildings are airport owned on the east end. Decision postponed until a site visit by commissioners.

The tape reportedly contains a ten hour account of Keeler’s affairs and may be transcribed for legal use. Stierne, 75, former Norwegian ambassador to the U.S., died Monday.
