PAGE FOUR ITALIAN GOVERNMENT DRAWS P LAWS FOR AIR NAVIGATION By HENRY WOOD. (United Press Staff Correspondent.) Rome, Sept. 9. (By Mail.)—The Italian government has just complet- ed the draft of a series of laws cover- ing aerial navigation, The proposed statute is the rej,su!t of over a year of study by a govern- ment commission and the law ai NOW. completed ready to be submitted to the Italian parliament consists of 41 articles. This is the first project of the kind .that any government- has perfected, and indicates the initiative Italy expects to take in aerial trans- Italy expects to take n aeral tran- sportation following the war. . In ‘a general way the new aerial law is sibmilar to those governing sea mavigation. For fhe present the law i8 for application in Italy alone, but is 1s expected to serve later as a basis for similar laws in other Euro- pean countries and finally as the foundation for international laws governing aerial navigation, which must inevitably follow with the de- velopment of this means of transpor- tation. The new Italian law fixes, first of all, the technical names to be used in designating the more important as- pects of aerial navagation. All air craft, whether airplanes or dirigibles, will be known under the general name of aeromobiles. . Aerial ports will be'the name applied to the reg- ular places for landing and depart- ing, .while refuge ports will be the name applied to those landing places where the aerial craft can put in in case of accident. The law provides that regular aerial ports are to be equipped with very much the same facilities as are to be found in any great sea port for the the landing, unloading, repair- ing, and taking on of cargoes. Special articles provide for what an aeromobile must do if it is obliged to land in other than a regular or refuge aerial port. Special provisions govern the zones of altitude in which the aeromobfles must navigate to prevent collisions and other accidents, The proposition to limit the height at which the aeromobiles might navi: gate in order to render more -easy their surveillance from the ground, was stricken out, and no limit was placed on the altitude of flight. On the other hand, for reasons of national defense, there is an articlg prohibiting aeromobiles from fiyin over forts and other military an naval defenses. The proposed laws would prohibit transportation by aeromobiles of in- flammable matter, explosives and other kinds of merchandise that might endanger the aircraft and other property in case of accident. Other articles provide that all aeromobiles must be registered in the national registry of aircraft; that each aeromobile must have a govern- ment certificate of its navigability; that tuere must be officers of recog- nized competence aboard; and that aireraft must carry certain official documents. ; The proposed code in all probabil- ity will be made law at the coming session of parliament.

Miller, dictator of the Moose lodge in Bemdji, is busily engaged looking after theo shipment of five cars, about 5,000 bushels, of potatoes for use at Mooseheart, the ‘greatest fraternal institution in the: United States. The interesting feature of this is that a letter wa+ received from the management of Mooseheart stating that the fame of Beltrami county as a potato growing center had reached them and inquiry was made as to supplying 5,000 bushels of potatoes ‘and the price. And the local lodge supplied the need.
