NINE ON-LINE CITIES where Erie-Lackawanna pays taxes on its facilities will
use part of those taxes to furnish improvements to benefit air transportation.
The Federal Aviation Agency recently announced $74,283,719 has been allocated
to 419 airport improvement projects for the year beginning July 1. Generally
speaking, the comm nities are required to match the Federal grants on a 50/50
basis. Helping to provide facilities for railroad competitors in the freight
and passenger market will be: Buffalo, $1,936,750; Elmira, $16,000; Jamestown,
$I0,000; Rochester, $1,215,500; Syracuse, $521,755; Chicago--- $4,189,693;
Huntington, Ind., $80,I00; Cleveland, $954,150, and Dayton, $37,500. (Editor's
note: "Federal grants," mentioned above, are actually "taxpayers money" under
a different name.)
Government Terrorism at its finest.
