Representatives of 18 Queens civic organizations urged the Presidential Commission chaired by Gen. James H. Doolittle to close all airports within New York City limits.

The hearing, closed to the press, heard petitions with 34,000 signatures protesting Newark flights. Elizabeth Realtors Alton W. Van Horn and Edward W. Hague spoke in support, noting the commission gave an attentive audience and praising plans for development of rural airfields perhaps in Monmouth County.
