Locke protests change to nautical mile measure in aviation
Norbert Locke director of Iowa aeronautics protests to Washington the switch from statute miles to nautical miles in aircraft measurement effective July 1. He calls the order dictatorial and foolhardy, saying it will be expensive to adjust instruments like air speed indicators and may raise costs for aviation operations. Meanwhile Iowa plans two license plates next year for autos with revalidation in 1954 and 1955, a change from earlier single plates, enabled by eased steel priorities and a budget shift to cover the necessary steel purchases and two-plate issuance.
