transportation.





                                 ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE


     By Order 77-4-153, April 29, 1977, the Board proposed to grant authority
to three carriers to transport persons, property, and mail in interstate air
transportation between certain domestic points which are served on flights
operated in foreign or overseas air transportation. While that order did not
propose such fill-up authority for Northwest Airlines between Washington
and Chicago, we indicated that we would be receptive to a request for a
further show-cause order to consider such authorlty -uon a reasonable Drima
facie.showing of a specific need for the strengthening of international-
services, without serious injury to other carriers.

     In response to this order, Northwest has filed an application and
petition for show-cause order for Washington-Chicago fill-up authority.
