United Air Lines to Confer on Cedar Rapids Halt
Ralph A. Reed of Cheyenne, division superintendent of United Air Lines, will arrive in Cedar Rapids for a conference with the chamber of commerce aviation committee on the temporary suspension of service ordered by W. A. Patterson. The action cited inadequate runway length for heavily loaded twin motored Boeings and safety concerns about landing and takeoff on the field. Rowe noted the shuttle service no longer fits, hopes for a solution, and said longer runways would likely be needed before service can resume.
