WILL DEMAND AVIATION BAN FOR JAPS, GERMANS WASHINGTON, Sept. 20,—(UP) —American proposals at the international aviation conference beginnii ., Nov, 1 will include a demand that ail forms of aviation—private, commercial and military -4n German! and Japan be virtually immobilized for an indeterminate period after the war, it was learned today. The principal air powers are believed already agreed that the enemy countries shall not be permitted to retain, manufacture or import military aircraft. In addition, this country, presumably with support of Britain, Russia und China, will insist on keeping down enemy civil aviation for years to come, bearing in mind the threat that once was imposed in this hemisphere by axis airlines in Lati.i

America.

Under the United States proposal, it was reported, major airports in Germany and Japan might be placed under international control and would be open to use by any United Nations commercial airline engaged in international transport. HELD AS ROBOT INVENTOR
