Keep Bolling Field Urged By Washington Business Men
Col. Robert N. Harper of the Chamber of Commerce will propose a resolution urging Secretary Baker to keep Bolling Field as Washington’s air station. Walter A. Brown of the Washington Board of Trade led the appeal after the War Department ordered the field abandoned. Bolling Field, near the Potomac and north of the steel plant, is seen as the city’s only viable flying field. Maj. Gen. Menoher’s plan for permanent hangars and racks would cost about 2 million dollars, a proposal Baker and the general staff rejected.
