RIGHTS OF FLYERS | oo scace] IMASONIC GROUPS " . ENGAGE LAWYERS Institute Trying to Settle Conflict Regarding Owners of the Soil. The lawyers of the American Law Snstitute, gathered in annual meeting at the Mayflower Hotel today, were! trying to resolve the conflict between | the rights and privileges of the owners of the soil, and the rights of those who fly over it. The early common-law conception of ownership of a piece of real estate was that the owner had undisputed | sway over the ground, down to the center of the earth and of the air above it up to the high hecavens. Then some one invented airplanes. Now the com- | mon-law concept of ownership must ; be revised. Cases Con As yet the cases m\-omng fiying | over the land of others are scarce and rather conflicting. In prep-nng a xe-v statement of the common subject of torts, which is under can-v sideration today, the institute has ot- fered the following for discussion: “An entry above the surlace of the‘ earth, on the air space in of another. by a person who Nt nuvel- ing in an aircraft, is privileged if the | flight is conducted (a) For a legitimate purpose. (b) In a reasonable manner, and | (c) At such a height as not to in- terfere unreasonably with the posses- sor’s enjoyment of the surface of mel earth and the air space above it.” Battle Expected. There are two camps in_the msu-x tute—the pro airplane and the anti airplane camps, and a merry battle is | expected before any agreement is reached on the statement of the lnw\ to be approved by the institute in us] final draft on the subject. After an entire day scheduled {nr discussion of the law of torts, the law- | yers will wind up their three-day con- vention with a dinner in the hotel's ball room. George W. Wickersham, for- mer Attorney General and president of the institute, will preside. Secre- gary of Labor Frances Perkins, Chief { Judge Cuthbert W. Pound of the New | York Court of Appeals and Prof. Ed- mund M. Morgan of Harvard Univer- sity will speak. The dinner is to start at 7:30 pm. PETWORTH WOMEN TO CONDUCT SERVICE M. E.
