Private Operation Advised Government construction with op- eration by a private company for a rental based on net income, was con- sidered the most desirable form of subsidy. Mindful of the plea by Dr. Hugo Eckener, German dirigible expert for permission to buy helium, the non- inflamatory gas produced solely in the United States, the commission observed: “It is possible to avoid destructive competition by negotiating trade and traffic agreements based on American control of helium and terminal facil- ities.” The commission suggested that should it be decided to establish a dir- igible service to Hawaii—‘decision to extend the service to Manila could ‘be deferred to a later date”—a dock be constructed alongside the navy's ‘base at Sunnyvale, Calif. Urge Government Subsidy ‘The commission insisted that dir- fgible transoceanic service would not compete with airplane lines, and that “encouragement should be given both to airship and airplane development for overseas use.” To the latter end, the commission ‘urged government subsidies, for “serv- fice by airplane across both the Atlan- tic and Pacificy making use only of the intermediate stopping-places that nature has provided.” Establishment of a non-partisan commission to regulate all civil avia- tion, with a membership of “not less than five and not more than nine” ‘was recommended. This commission would have authority to determine rates and air mail payments and is- sue permits without which air lines could not operate. The commission said that because of its special problems control over aviation should not be given to a general transportation agency at pre- sent but that the president should have authority to merge the air com- mission later by executive order. 16 Cents a Mile Air mail contracts should be “on @ strictly commercial basis,” and in no case exceed total revenucs from that service and additional payments ‘@t present necessary for every line should be allocated by the new agency from a lump sum appropriation. It suggested an annual subsidy of $7,- 000,000, an average of 16 cents a mile, with the largest amount 25 cents. The report recommended the com- merce department continue its regu- latory and inspection services; pro- posed a new post of assistant secre- tary for aeronautics, and suggested that the weather bureau be trans- ferred from the agriculture depart- ment because forecasting now is more important to aviators than to farm- ers. The national advisory committee for aeronautics should cooperate with the commerce department in develop- ing advanced types of aircraft, the report said. Although it did not propose uni- fication of army, navy and similar air services operated by the govern- ment, the commission emphasized that “intense study and prompt rem- edy” should be given to increase their cooperation. The report recommended construc- tion of a navy training dirigible to replace the now decommissioned Los Angeles, and endorsed the program which in a few years will increase army strength to 2,320 and the navy force to 1,910 planes.
