CITY STUDIO* INC Winging to Austin via Royale Airline available for $29 By Loyd Brumfield Reporter If you want to get to Austin fast, but don’t want to drive for two hours, Royale Airlines may have a deal for you. Beginning Monday, Royale Air lines will initiate flight service from Easterwood Airport to Austin for S29. One flight will depart at 8:35 a.m. and arrive at Robert Mueller Munic ipal Airport in Austin at 9:10 a.m. and another will depart at 4:50 p.m. and arrive at 5:25 p.m. Michael Lato, local manager for Royale Airlines, says the new service was initiated because of public de mand. “People around here have been asking for this service for years now,” Lato said. “They’ve wanted a quick, easy way to get to Austin and now we’re providing it for them.” Community businesses have been especially vocal in wanting flights to Austin, Lato said. “Businesses want the service to improve transportation to Austin and make it quicker,” he said. “A community like this — a com munity of 100,000 — really needs this service. We hope this will make the area more attractive to busi nesses and conventions and things that normally wouldn’t be drawn to the two cities.” Lato stiid the service will be used primarily for Texas A&M but it also will be available to the public. “Texas A&M conducts a lot of business with the University of Tex as,” Lato said. “Our flights to Austin should make business between the schools easier to organize.” Lato says he thinks people will ac tually fly to Austin instead of driv ing- ’ . . “Especially if they are going to Austin for one day to conduct busi ness,” he said. “We make it very quick and convenient to grab a flight instead of driving for two hours.” Lato said the service to Austin will allow customers to get connecting flights to Western cities more easily. Jet America, Continental Airlines, Delta Airlines and TWA Airlines of fer connecting service from Austin. Lato says Royale hopes to make the service to Austin a permanent feature. “We hope to get a lot of commu nity support on this,” he said. “We need support so we can make this a permanent deal.” 693-2457 Report says import tax can alleviate oil woes WASHINGTON (AP) — Con gressional supporters of imposing a fee on imported oil got new ammu nition Thursday from a report say ing such a levy would be the best way to reduce U.S. dependence on for eign oil and raise money to help trim budget deficits. “We cannot overlook the opportu nity offered by the rapidly falling oil prices,” said Sen. Pete V. Domenici, R-N.M., chairman of the Senate Budget Committee. “This may be a once-in-a-century chance to simulta neously improve our fiscal condi tion, put part of the burden of the tax on foreigners and alleviate posi tively our energy predicament and our dependence.” The report from the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office said that of various oil tax options, the import fee would be the best means of reducing U.S. demand for im ports and encouraging domestic ex ploration and production. “By raising the price of oil im ports, an oil import tariff would en courage all activities that could sub stitute for oil imports: domestic oil production, production of substi tutes for oil, conservation of oil and substitution of other fuels for oil,” the report said. “It would therefore lead to the greatest possible reduc tion in oil imports . . . and provide the most assistance to domestic pro ducers.” The import fee has failed to gen erate much support. Lor example. Sen. Bob Packwood, R-Ore., chair man of the tax-writing Senate Li- nance Committee, has said within the past month that there are no mot e than five votes on the 20-mem ber panel in favor of the fee. Earlier this year, Treasury Secre tary James A. Baker III said Presi dent Reagan was keeping the door open on consideration of an oil im port fee as a way to reduce budget deficits. However, Reagan later slammed the door, saying he would not accept such a levy, or any other general tax increase. Nonetheless, Domenici and others in Congress continue to push the idea as a way to shrink government red ink.
