Some people who took advantage of the low Thanksgiving fares on impulse might have decided not to make another plane trip so soon afterward, spokesmen for some of the carriers said Also, since Christmas fell in the middle of the week this year it was harder for would-btravelers to extend the holiday into a long weekend, they said. Most of the big airlines are offering some seats at 70 percent off the economy-clas- s fare from Wednesday or Thursday thruugh Saturday. The cheap tickets are intended to fill planes during the traditionally slow Christmas week, when business travel drops off. They carry restrictions designed to keep travelers who would have flown anyway from taking advantage of them. The airlines also have announced deals for around the New Year's holiday and for most of January, February and March, an period for air travel. John Hotard, spokesman for Dallas-base- d American Airlines, called the response to the Christmas offer pretty good," but said it was probably not as successful as the Thanksgic ing fare t was." American is the nations airline after Unite magnificent capacity for healing itself. There is no reason to believe that it cant cope until a properly responsible mankind, which is after ull part of the ecological system. As the season of Christmas comes near. I am reminded of the words in Ecclesiastes: For every thing its season, und for every activity under heaven its time Vie environmental movement in America was certainly an ucfin-t- y whose time had come. Its momentum should be sustained, but the occasional acrimony and tactics should be drojiped, and balance made the order of the day Let us remember that the Creulor did not make this earth an empty planet: he placed mankind upon it to create a human hubitat, as well us to enjoy a physical one. It offers us much, but it ulso asks of us much. Today we are reminded of the undent proclaiming of peace on eurth, goodwill toward men," and it ought to remind us us well of how we have to give new vitality to our efforts to serve as good stewards: to be the fortress of freedom m the world, to succor the poor. shouUIer the lame and tend to the sick. These are the decent deeds to which our material ubundunce cun be dedicated, provided we learn to use thut abutulunce wisely uiul well. Muy this time of yeur be one when people who share a fundamental goodness can come together sharing their concerns and charity and devoting themselves anew to the prophetic proposition that what we ure is God's gift to mun; what we become is man's gift to God May the fullness of the gifts of God be with you and yours in this Iloly Seuson and the coming yeur. J. Allen Overton, Jr. off-pea- k ... second-larges- ed Airlines. Most airlines announced Christmas deals around Dec. 10 or 11. and spokesman United Joseph Hopkins of Chicago-basesaid people might have made their travel plans by then. "They've had limited impact." he said, agreeing the Thanksd self-servin- g giving fares were a bigger hit with the public. I dont have any question that the bookings increased after the announcement was made, but probably not as much as people might have hoped, said Dick Jones, spokesman for nta-based Delta Airlines, the nations carrier. Eastern Air Lines, one of the few carriers that made figures available, said bookings were up 10 percent from last year's strong Christmas travel period. Mark Wegel, a airline, called that an excelspokesman for the Miami-baselent response. Sandra Allen, a spokeswoman for Frontier Airlines, said the Denver-basecarrier has noticed not too much stimulation" from the fare cuts. But she said bookings were already healthy before the announcement. exMinneapolis-baseRepublic Airlines, the seventh-larges80 to about have pected percent of its seats filled around Christmas. But spokesman Walter Heilman said the exceptionally strong performance probably is due to a streamlining of routes over the last year as much as to lower fares. Deltas Jones said the major airlines are offering the discounts in part to prove that passengers can find seats as cheap or cheaper than those on airlines like People Express. People Express spokesman Russell Marchetta in Newark, N.J., said the major airlines discounts possibly will take away some business from People, but he said the airline is doing well. "You increase the size of the pot of customers because more people can afford to fly, he said.
