The Board fixes rates for transportation of airmail to

promote the development of air transportation required

for the commerce of the United States, the postal service,

and the national defense. Many of these rates include

an element of subsidy. The subsidy portion is paid by

the Civil Aeronautics Board, and the service portion is

paid by the Post Office Department.

The obligations shown above, less the obligated bal

ances recovered, reflect the amounts recorded each year

as due the air carriers. These sums cover services per

formed during the year, computed at rates then in effect,

plus or minus such adjustments as are needed to reflect

the issuance, during the year, of rate orders affecting

prior years. Approximately 1 to 2 months of obligations

are due but unpaid at the end of any year.

The following table reflects the estimated amounts be

coming due finally for each year, together with the adjust

ments between years (in thousands of dollars):

competitive merit system through examinations held by

the office of the Commission and its boards of examiners,

made up of agency personnel operating under the super

vision of the Commission. Appointments through such

competitive examinations will accord career or career-

conditional status. Physically handicapped persons are

given special placement attention. Veterans are aided in

securing the benefits to which they are entitled.

ning, and top policy and decision making functions of the

Board, legal advice and assistance is provided on all
