THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, -D. C., WEDNESDAY, MAY 1, 1940, Formal Statement on Reorganization This is President Rbosevelt’s formal statement defending his order placing the Civil Aeronau- tics Authority, now an independ- ent agency, in the Commerce De- partment: Since the transmittal of reor- ganization plans Nos. III and IV a flood of misinformation has engulfed those sections dealing with the Civil Aeronautics Au- thority. Much of this-has fallen of its own absurdity and needs no comment. This morning, how- ever, we saw a group of well-in- tentioned people staking out an exclusive claim to a so-called “lobby to save lives.” The implication that we are not interested in saving lives, which is certainly contradicted by the record of our progress in civil aviation during recent years, compels me to restate in simple terms the basic features of the reorganization plans affecting the Civil Aeronautics Authority. I might say here that every- body is for the abstract idea of reorganization in the interest of increased efficiency and econ- omy. However, there is a rather discouraging collapse of enthu- siasm when concrete proposals are made. In. selfish protection of their own special interests we always find particular groups who hitherto favored reorganization arising in protest. None of Three Agencies Represented at Cabinet Table.

The Chesapeake and Potomac Telephone Company 3150 155 there are Issued to Answer ‘Misinformation’ groups, none of them represented at the cabinet table. The inher- ent problems confronting them " were intensified by friction, par- ticularly within the Air Safety Board. For five months the ad- ministrative management divi- sion of the Budget Bureau made a study at my request of the operation of the Authority. It became obvious that a change was imperative if we were to continue to move forward in civil aviation. Here, in simple sum- mary, is the proposal: 1. Despite handicaps, the Fed- eral program for civil aeronautics has now achleved a stature and an importance which justify bringing this program more closely into the Federal family. The proposal will place it within the framework of the Depart- ment of Commerce, where it will have a closer relationship with the important reporting services of the Weather Bureau and the essential air navigation chart service of the Coast and Geodetic Survey. More than that, it will provide representation at the cabinet table for a program of basic significance to our national transportation and our national defense. Present world condi- tions make the merit of this phase of the proposal obvious. 2. The present five-member authority which has received such widespread praise remains as an independent Civil Aero- nautics Board performing the basic regulatory functions. It will continue to appoint and con- trol its own personnel and sub- mit its own budget. Certain Functions Transferred To Eliminate Blind Spot. 3. Certain of the Authority’s functions are transferred to the administrator to eliminate a blind §pot created by the failure of the Civil Aeronautics Act of 1938 to carry out the intention of Con- gress to distinguish clearly be= tween the functions of the ade ministrator and the Authority. 4. The function of investigating accidents is transferred to the Civil Aeronautics Board, which, unlike the present Air Safety Board, will not- be helpless to take positive steps toward pre- venting the recurrence of acci- dents. Unlike the Air Safety Board, the Civil Aeronautics Board will have the power to pre- scribe air safety rules, regula- tions and standards and to sus- pend or revoke certificates after hearing. Not only does this con- tinue the present independence of accident investigation, but it also makes possible prompt trans- lation of findings into corrective action. 5. Not only are we advancing the cause of air safety by these changes, but we will also realize appreciable savings. Several highly paid positions on the Air Safety Board will be eliminated and other economies made possible. | Births Reported | Raymond and Marsaret Oramoton. airls. Richard and Mavhugh Grifith, boy.

McLean, jr., son of the former - Washington publisher, is scheduled to come into an inherit- ance of some $100,000. This became known today when Justice Daniel W. O'Donoghue of District Court signed an order mak- ing this possible. Mr. McLean's mother, Mrs, Evalyn Walsh McLean, and Nugent Dodds, substitute trus- | D¢! tees of a trust fund created by the will of Marle Edwards Beale asked the court for permission to sell cer- tain securities so that he might get his share, which is about $100,000. On July 28 last, Mr. McLean be- came 21" years of age and entitled to his share of the trust fund, the court was told, but he asked that the investments be held intact until he made demand for his share. He has now made such a demand and in or- der to make distribution, it is neces- sary to sell the stocks, the court was intormed. Accordingly, Justice O'Donoghue signed an order authorizing sale of the stocks. Marriage License Applications Carlos G. Montoya. 36. and Sally MacLean. 28, both of New York: Judse Rober( E. ngly.
