Low Flights Over Capital Stir Old Aviation Debate
Washington July 8 The City Club protests low flying planes over the capital, claiming danger from flights below 1,000 feet and dual instruction over the President’s head. District law requires 2,000 feet, but firms argue federal rules and profit limit climbs. Surveys say commercial flights stay high and training avoids city air.

A Chicago Tribune report tracked the Berlin bound amphibian Untin Bowler as it originated from Great Whale Hudson Bay and flew northeast toward Labrador. Automatic signals indicated the craft remained aloft for five hours but likely descended near Cape Chidley due to bad weather. Pilots Parker D.
