The piece compares CAB regulated routes with state governed flights, noting higher fares for Chicago to Minneapolis at 45.37 versus the California San Francisco to Los Angeles 25.50. It cites consumer and conservative critiques of agencies like the Interstate Commerce Commission and Civil Aeronautics Board, and argues the public service rationale vs costs. It quotes Sen. Hubert Humphrey defending rural air service as necessary.
