Proposed Federal Civil Aeronautics Law Boosts Commerce Dept
A bill by Chairman Winslow proposes federal control of air safety and navigation. It would give the secretary of commerce power over civil aeronautics with an assistant paid 7500 dollars yearly. The act would coordinate the Commerce department with the army navy marine corps and coast guard and create a seven member civil aeronautics advisory board from the aircraft industry. The law would supersede state authority in air safety and navigation.
