Che Law Of the HIr
Becomes a Problem

Skeptics as to the progress of
aerial navigation-if they now exist
will perforce see in the action of the
French government a very substan-
tial recognition Of the remarkable ad-
vances recently made in man-fiight,
says the Springfield Republican.
When Wilbur Wright, a few weeks
ago. kept his aeroplane in motion
about two hours and flew a distance
nearly three times across the English
channel between Calais and Dover,
the French cabinet raised TO debate
the question Of the law of the air
1t was the opinion of some of the
ministers, evidently, that an interna-
tional conference would have to be
summoned sooner or later, for it is
apparent that the problem of aerial
rights and delimitation will open up a
new chapter in international law;
but, meanwhile the French Minister
nary study for a code of laws and it
is possible that a commission will be
intrr sted with the task of drawing up
formal draft of the lame. The need
of such a code TO. strictly national
purposes is thus recognized in the
country where experimentation with
the dirigible balloon and later with
the aeroplane has been most active
From a legal point of view, even
the partial conquest of the air cannot
fail to open a whole field of entirely
new and difficult questions. In so
far as they may be confined to ma
tional limits, each country may legis-
late for itself; but, because the
aerial highways knows no national
boundaries imposed either by Nature
or man, an international code would
inevitably come into existence. In
the narrower sphere, it is easy TO see
| that questions of trespass upon pri-
vate landed property, involving the
right to land wherever necessity die
tated, would have TO be de initeIy
settled, and that the elevation of
routes OF aerial travel, especially in
! the vicinity of towns and cities, might
become a practical problem The
| licensing of aerial pilots would doubt
less become entirely a state function.
Rules of the road" many of which
We can now but dimly imagine, would
probably be established by law, as
the result of experience. Especially
important, as a measure of public
safety, would be the strict regulation
of the carrying of explosives If air.
ships should become so large in size
as to require large crews, it would
probably be necessary to make pro-
visions for concentrating the authority
of command after the style of the
laws governing captains power in
vessels at sea.
In many respects "a code for aerial
navigation, whether national or inter
national would naturally follow the
analogy of the sea. If international
boundaries We're crossed very gener-
ally, the necessity for having the air.
ship carry some equivalent of the sea
crafts flag would quickly develop, in
order that airslips might be known
Vernon County censor. [volume] (Viroqua, Wis.) 1865-1955, 1909-03-03

TO each other, and also TO observers
on the earth below, by their national
ity. IN war especially, some device
TO serve the purpose of the flag would
be considered essential; and an inter
national congress might easily con-
elude that no military airship should
sail about at night without carving
colored lights emblematic of national
ity. While such a rule would inter.
fere with the secret use of ajrshirs in
war, especially in the fighting zone of
hostile armies, yet it would be fully
justified by the existing rules of mari,
time commerce and maritime war. A
peculiar difficulty would arise in dis
tinguishing enemy airships of war
from enemy airships used entirely for
commerce. since on the sea they are
differently dealt with; and there
would be also the difficulty of distin.
gushing neutral airships from those
of belligerents. If the analogy of the
sea be followed, aerial neutrals could
demand all the privileges and i'm.
munities from belligerents now ac
corded to neutrals in maritime war
fare; and how questions arising from
this source could De solved with ref
erence both to aerial conditions and
conditions On the earth below, may
be left for the professors and diplo
mats to solve
II is possible that the laws of wal
will show the effect of the introduc
ton of aerial navigation long before
the laws of peace, for the present in
dicaticns are that these contrivanccs
fer man-fiight will at first be service
able as military machines rather
than as vehicles FOR commerce. Or
that account, the tendency among the
nations may be to place narrow in
terpretations upon individual rights
in the medium of the air, and to seek
the legal extension of national boun
diaries into the clouds above the
earth. The right of crossing national
boundaries freely may be challenged
in the interest of national interests
both fiscal and military, and the argu
/ ment will probably be made that
while the analogy of the sea should
apply to the air as a highway O
travel, still the crossing of nationa
frontiers is equivalent to entering Z
government maritime jurisdiction o.
one of its ports on the coast line.
Close regulation and restriction il
the interest of national government:
may be easily accomplished, perhaps
so long as airships are very few il
number and are serviceable mainly a
pleasure craft and as machines o
war but if they should be so mucl
improved, as time passes, that the.
would be commercially successful al
agents of transportation, then thu
difficulties of regulating aerial figh
on narrw national lines would be
come possibly insurmountable. Ont
can readily conceive a situation il
which national lines would become
obsolete owing to the radical trans
formation of the conditions of human
life; and the perfection of man-fiigh
would certainly hasten such a result.
