Washington AP reports the Transportation Department will urge the Civil Aeronautics Board to pressure US and foreign airlines to end or extend the new youth and student fare to all passengers on major transatlantic routes.

He notes the plan shifts cost to other travelers and stresses non discrimination while recognizing benefits for servicemen clergy and other groups. The CAB could end special fares if discriminatory, potentially halting US international flights until new agreements are reached, pending State Department and Presidential approval.
