PLAN REGULATIONS! FORI TRAFFIC

Within Five Years Airplane May be Piloted Through Fog or Storm as Easily as Steering Ships. , sx-i; fed Irs Service: MANUHKSTKK. England. Dec. 20. (Correspondence.) Within the next six months the allies should reach an agreement regulating commercial trattic in the air. and within the next live years it should be as easy and as safe to pilot an airplane through fog and storm as it is to pilot a ship. asserted Lord Weir, secretary of state for air force.-;, before an audience hero the other day. In order tnat ambitious projects now being discussed might be entirely successful, he said, these things were necessary: Development of navigational instruction by really sound and severe navigational training. Greation of an energetic meteorological service especially designed to hlp air transport. Tho adoption of improved systems of wireles telegraphy and telephonv. The adoption of a first class system by day and night marking of landing places and airdromes. "We now possess in substantial mi ni hers, either delivered or in course of construction, airplanes which will carry a crew- of seven and thirty passengers; which will climb to a helcht of 10.000 feet, and which will travel 1.200 miles without a stop," said Lord Weir. "One type can come down at sea, float on the waves and rise again with a full load. 'We have machines that can land safely at definitely gliding angles entirely without human control. This means that when the pilot can set his instruments by means of a kite balloon anchoredin clear air. he will be able to land with, safety in an airdrome completely fogbound." Lord Weir made it very plain that he did not think the best ends of civilization would be served by keeping civil aviation for a government monopoly. Cooperation between the state and individuals, he believed, would bring the best results. The state would of necessity he the pioneer and from the present air ministry would spring an air department in the government which would not only control the administration of the royal air forces, the fighting air branch of the Uritish army and navy, but would act as the supreme authority for the development of civil aviation. "The first step of the new ministry would be the organization of international Hying, that Is flying among the different countries. This would involve an International aircraft convention. "We have already drafted the articles of this convention, and they are now being submitted to our allies." continued Lord Weir. "If they substantially approve it, an international air conference will be held. I have reason to anticipate that within the next four or live months the principal nations of the world will have reached agreement on this momentous matter. "Similarly domestic legislation will have to be enacted to govern flying in this country. The bill has been prepared, and I anticipate that within a few weeks of the opening of the new parliament a useful act will come into force. Until this convention and this domestic legislation becomes operative, there can be no private hying at all, either international or in this country. It would be unfortunate if the development of civil aviation were retarded owing to the effects of a series of fatal accidents due to the lack of absolutely necessary regulations. "The state should require in permanence a large proportion of the existing military airdromes. and should render them available for

"The department should undertake the training of all pilots to bemployed on public transport service and map out and light the aerial routes. The department should be ready to undertake mail, freight and passenger services when private enterprise may be found lacking. "From the superabundance of machines at its disposal upon the conclusion of peace, and suitable to conversion for commercial use. the state should be ready to dispose of a considerable rumher at a low price to private operating companies."
