Southwest official says franchise needed for growth to be viable
SW Airlines vice president A W Johnson told a CAB examiner that the company cannot justify the investment needed to expand on its routes without a permanent operating certificate. He projected 1955-56 traffic gains of 13 percent and 12 percent the following year, contingent on a $500,000 navigational aid spend in California and Southern Oregon. Johnson noted financing would be tough, with high indebtedness and discouraging bank credit, unless a 10-year amortization plan is approved.

Knight Opposes State Purchase of Central Valley Project
Gov. Godwin J. Knight told the Sertoma Club of Sacramento he does not advocate California buying the multi million dollar Central Valley Project from the federal government. He backs fast construction of the Trinity River Project by the Bureau of Reclamation with power facilities to be operated by the federal government. Knight said federal officials have no intention to sell CVP and urged focus on other master water plan components. He aligned with Public Works on building Trinity and on using project power profits to offset water costs. His stance follows pressure from opponents demanding a clear position.
