Federal plan eyed for unified air and transport regulation
A group of aviation observers pushed for a federal one system to govern all transportation including air travel. Joseph Eastman proposed a unified plan, while the aviation commission urged a temporary air commerce body similar to the Interstate Commerce Commission. President Roosevelt supported coordinated transport but rejected a separate airline commission. The report criticizes Postmaster General Farley and calls for extending emergency air mail rules through January 1, 1886 and continuing subsidies to viable airlines during the transition.
