WHO OWNS The ARR

Switzerland believes that the air
above her Is Swiss air. She is of the
opinion that when a beIligerent air
plane enters the air above a Swiss
frontier it has violated the neutrality
Of Switzerland, and so some Of her
people are stirred up because allied
and German airplanes engaged In
battle over the country around Basic.
The development Of the Zeppelin and
Of the airplane even before the war
caused general trend of thought to-
ward the opinion that sovereignty of
the air is divided among the nations
just as is the sovereignty Of the earth,
and that the air over the seas, outside
the three-mile limit, Is free, just az
the high seas are supposed to be free.
AS with nations, so with cities, and
with individuals? Yes, in so far as
cities are concerned, for it seems to
be accepted that communities, acting
rs units, may make laws governing
the use Of the open sky above them.
Individual landowners, however, will
find much difficulty in, say preventing
any aviator who wishes to do so from
using the air above their lands, says
Savannah News. The war may cause
the airplane to be commonplace In
peace times, and If so there will, OF
course, spring into being mass of
laws intended to regulate the use OF
