The position of the National Capital

again at the annual meeting Of the
National Aeronautic Association here
yesterday when O resolution prepared by
Lawrence Il williams, secretary of the
Aero Club of Washington and chair
man of the Aviation Committee Of the
Washington Board of Trade, was In
PRODUCED for the purpose of placing the
national governing body for aeronautics
on record as favoring the creation OF
q model municipal airport for the Ma
tional Capital No definite site was
mentioned In the resolution, which was
referred TO committee, and this Is ex-
pected to result in q tight in conyen-
ton when the resolution Is reported,
as the association repeatedly has gone
on record in favor Of the Gravelly Point
site.
One Of the planks Of the annual plat
form Of the association Is the estab-
lishment Of an adequate national
headquarters building in the National
Capital. The association recently moved
its headquarters from the Barr Build
ing to Dupont circle, In the National
Capital, and now Is considering the
construction or purchasing Of its own
building, though no action toward this
end is expected to be taken this year.
