NATIONAL R! ssurth Avenue TATIVES — Alaska Newspapers, 1411 tie, Wash HELICOPTER TRAFFIC A study of the part to be played by the helicopter in peacetime flying is being made by the Civil Aero- nautics Administration. The National Aeronautics Association notes that specific airworthiness require- ments for helicopters are now being worked out by the CAA, and that Administrator Stanton is also consid- ering methods of traffic control which will permit this strange and versatile rotary-winged aircraft to operate without conflicting with its fixed-winged brothers. Mr. Stanton does not believe that the two types of aircraft can be kept separate; they will inhabit the same airports, although parts of every field, plainly marked from the air, may be set aside for helicopter operation. The very nature of the helicopter, which allows it to make exact landings in backyards and on the roofs of large buildings, will require traffic rules re- garding safe altitude over cities, towns, and large assemblies of people. Both the CAA, with regard to regulation, and the industry, with regard to manu- facture, are walking softly in the present stage of | development of rotary-winged machines. While the | helicopter has gained tremendous impetus from the demands of war, on the one hand, development has | also been retarded in some respects by military ex- | pediency. Present models demand a degree of piloting skill and expert maintenance which deny broad | the Pacific islands, it will still take all the power |interests. Romances should be cau- 1bring to bear at such vast distances to beat Japan | especially in the United States immediately after the Crimea Conference, the:White House announcement regarding President Roosevelt’s movement makes two | things plain. The first is that the war against Japan and any Russian participation in it were not discussed at that conference or anywhere on Russian soil, not even between President Roosevelt and Prime Minister Churchill alone, because Russia is still a neutral Power in that war. The second is that in a special | conference between Mr. Roosevelt and Mr. Churchill | held at Alexandria the British Prime Minister renewed | “in blunt ‘words” his previous assurances that “his { Government was detéermined to throw everything it had at the Japs as soon as Germany has been de- | feated and, meanwhile, would do all it could to strengthen its forces already engaged in that conflict.” | ‘This is a diplomatic document which establishes the rigid correctness of Russia as a meutral Power |in the war in Asia, whose hands are legally tied, by | the Russo-Japanese neutrality pact even in discussions | | with her allies in the war in Europe. But the decisive (tense in this document is held strictly to the present, |and there is nothing in it to suggest, much less to bind, Russia’s course in the future.
