Replies by thousands of motorists over the next two months will help shape the type and routes of highway and mass transit facilities around Sacramento for years to come, Interviewers are repeating the same question over and over again on all highways leading out of the state's capital city. Survey will continue until Oct. 1. (California Division of Highways Photo) August 14, 1968 The Nevada County Nugget 3 Aviation Day National Aviation Day is to be observed August 19, It isa day when most attention will be directed toward the unbelievable advances that have taken place in the art, of flying in short space of time since the Wright Brothers lifted their frail craft off the ground at Kitty Hawk. Aircraft exhibits will dramatize the marvelous performance,
comfort, and speed of today's planes--planes of every kind and size, If you are in the right vicinity, you will see the small pleasure craft, as well as the planes that have become the tools of the businessman, and the jets that carry air travelers throughout the globe. There are other aspects of the aviation age that cannot be paraded across an airport but are equally impressive. For one thing, the cost of living has increased by 50 per cent since 1947, yet the cost of air travel is lower than it was then and has decreased by 13 per cent during the last 5 years, The decline is more spectacular -and realistic-when put another way. Expressed in constant dollars of 1967 purchasing power, the average cost incurred by air passengers per mile of travel in 1967 was more than onethird less than in 1947, Another aspect of air travel that cannot be put on exhibit is the impact of the great jets flying internationally carrying millions of people each year to every nation on earth, What this must inevitably mean in terms of greater understanding among all peoples will never be measured on a graph. Yet, it may well turn out to be the most decisive factor in reaching the ultimate goal of peace and a higher civilization. : COSMETICS Beauty Counselors FREE-Skin Care, Makeup Analysis "Try Before You Buy” Mrs. Santa Marinelli, Consultant.: 273-6323 a big wage cuts.
