new BILL OFFERED
TO RULE A|RL|NES
Lea Measure Would Set Up
! Civil AeronautiCs
Authority.

Chairman Lea, Democrat, Of Cali
fornia of tie House Interstate Com
merce Committee, yesterday intro
duced q new variation Of the admins
tration's bill for the regulation Of
civilian aviation.
The measure. which was described
by Chairman Lea as "a composite
Of the bill he introduced in 1885 to
carry out the recommendations of the
Federal Aviation Commission, q bill
he introduced last session, and the
McCarran bill now pending in the
Senate, will be set for hearings before
. subcommittee Of the House inter-
state Commerce group.
The measure would establish an in
dependent agency to be known as the
Civil Aeronautics Authority, vested
with all of the powers relating to civil
aeronautics now exercised by the
Commerce Department, the Interstate
Commerce Commission. and the Post
Once Department, except that the
Past Office Department would retain
purely routine postal functions.
In addition, the agency would be
empowered to grant certificates au-
thorizing the operation of airlines in
: interstate and foreign commerce and
to-. fix passenger and express rates.
Evening star., 1938-02-20

The agency would be composed Of i've
members who would be appointed by
the President by and with the advice
and consent of the Senate for six
year terms.
Some Points In Controversy.
Mr. Lea satd there are several -ques-
tions Of policy which are still in con-
troversy but that three provisions in
the bill are desired by the administra-
ton. The nrst would empower the
agency to FIX rates charged by Amer
ican-flag airlines in foreign air COM
merce. The second would authorize
the Post once Department to fix air.
mail schedules. The airlines oppose
these provisions on the ground that
there is no need for such regulation
The third provision desired by the
administration would require the is
suance Of all certificates authorizing
the operation Of airlines in foreign air
commerce to be approved by the
President in the interest of national
defense and our international rela-
tions. Objections are made to this
provision in so far as it would apply
to the granting Of certificates to exist
ing lines.

Party Has Good Chance.
1t is the opinion of those respon-
slole Tor financing the present expedi-
tlon-namely, friends and members of
the party-that a party of this size
has at least as good a chance as a
large one. The view has been ex-
pressed that any number more than
one constitutes large party-but it
Is not merely question of how MANY
Europeans; equally significant is the
number Of porters and the amount of
food and equipment with which the
party is burdened.
For mountain exploration and for
peaks up to, say, $4,000 feet, the
small, mobile party has proved its
worth. while success has not yet at

Housebreaking and unauthorized use
OF automobiles are the felonies that
have caused youths to get into trouble
with the law most often. But with
respect to these crimes the reduction
is encouraging.
Compared with 10l juvenile house-

only 70 cases reported last year. In
1888 there were 220 cases involving
unauthorized use Of automobiles by
boys, mostly cases of 10y riding, !"
There were only 50 such cases last
