Description
February 5, 1955 Dear Amon: Thought you would be interested in clipping on Ross Rizley's appointment to Civil Aeronautics Board yesterday: - also editorial which followed this morning. In answer to your inquiry, Oswald Ryan has not yet received a job from the administration. The editorial attached refers to the White House abandonment of "its first candidate to succeed" Ryan. That was Harold Jones who was and is United States minister to ICAO in Montreal (this is organization made up of representatives of all governments who have airlines flying internationally). It was apparently Adams intention to give Jones the CAB job, and give Ryan Jones' job in Montreal. When the White House yielded to local service airline opposition to Jones appointment to CAB, Jones went back to his ICAO job in Montreal. Thus - no job for Ryan, as yet. Hope you and Miss Minnie are both fine - and that (?) and I will have the opportunity of seeing you soon. Regards, always Carlene Amon: - Second set of clippings being mailed under seperate cover. Carlene
