AIRPORT SITUATION
STUDIED BY GROUP
Subcommittee of Joint Civic
Body Discusses Plans
to Save Project.

Feeling that the airport situation
in Washington is far from being as
hopeless from the viewpoint Of secur-
ing adequate support from local busi-
ness men as it has been made to ap.
pear, the special subcommittee Of the
joint civic airport committee met early
today in the offices of the Chamber of
Commerce to go over the entire situa-
tion that confronts the District with
threatened loss of air mail service.
Before the meeting it was pointed
out on behalf of the three trade bodies
that failure of the recent meeting to
indorse the airport project was due
chiefly to the suggestion that District
taxpayers shoulder the entire burden
of establishing a field at Gravelly
Point at a cost of approximately
$2,000,000, when the committee had
been led to believe earlier that the
cost would be insignificant.
In the first place, it was said, they
had been led to believe that the Gov
ernment virtually would donate the
land and that the necessary filing
could be done by Army engineers by
dredging the Potomac under the ap-
preparations carried in the rivers and
harborS act. Then, too, 1t was said
to be the understanding that prac-
tically the only expense which the
District would have to stand would
be the actual cost of equipping the
field with hangers and lights.
Final Decision Withheld.
When estimates ranging from ST.
100000 to $2,000,000 became known,
necessitating an increase in the Dis
trict tax rate, it was said that 1t was
the feeling of those present at the
meeting that final decision should
be Withheld until formal proposition
could be put up to the District. In
view of the benefits to be derived
by the Government from an airport,
greater than those likely
to be enjoyed by business interests
here. it was felt that the Govern

Hoosiers Asked to Look to
Good of State.

Appeal that Hoosiers cease pro-
noting their individual interests and
give the Legislature chance to
function in behalf of the State, was
made today by John e. Friedrich,
State Chamber of Commerce -presi-
dent.
There are advocates of measures,
purely political. struggling to line
up sufficient members of the Legis-
lature to enact their pet measures or
to defeat bill proposed by their poll
teal opponents" Friedrich declared.
Friedrich said radical changes in
laws disturbing the stability of COM
merce and industry, are opposed by
the State Chamber.
THE thing that is most essential
to the development of Indiana to-
day. Friedrich concluded, sis that
sense of security which permits the
business man to go to sleep at night
without feeling he may awaken to
find his business overturned through
well-meant but ill-considered activity
on the part of some group of citizens
who have gazed on single phase of
community life and thought they
saw all Indiana.
