COUNCIL RECEIVES PETITION

Accompanied by an accusing speech by Sam Estes, well known Fairbanks resident, an aftermath of the Second Avenue fire ten days ago was plumped on the City Council table last night in the form of a petition asking ap- pointment of full time fire chief.
 The Council listened to the reading of the petition and the 57 names of signers, then voted to receive and file it. In subse- quent action the whole question of the Second Avenue fire was referred to the fire committee for a report next meeting. Members of the committee are Percy Hub bard, chairman; A. L. Wilbur and Wilbur Walker.
 The petition follows in part:
 We the undersigned, tax pay CTS and citizens of Fairbanks, Alaska, respectfully petition the Honorable Mayor of Fairbanks, Alaska, and the City Council, of Fairbanks, Alaska, to appoint a full-time fire chief for the said City of Fairbanks, Alaska, for the reason that it has become appar- ent that one man cannot hold two jobs at the same time, namely Chief of Police and Fire Chief, and that it Is to the best interest of the Town of Fairbanks, Alas ka, that a full-time Fire Chief be appointed.

The Lea Bill does not provide
for federal regulation of the opera
ton or administration of airports.
This matter is left to the States.
And as to the regulation of hazards
in the vicinity Of airports, the bill
makes zoning depend on the con-
sent of the municipality owning an
airport and payment by local in
terests for property taken.
These and many other matters
of local concern would be left to
the States and the municipalities If

Aside from the inherently inter-
state nature of air commerce, one
other factor sharply distinguishes
air commerce from surface trans
portation. That is the special and
intimate relationship between civil
aviation and the national defense.
AS experience during the present
war has proved, civil aviation must
always be ready to be modified on
a moments notice to aid in the
active defense of the nation. In the
nature of things, state regulation
cannot adequately provide for such
mobilization nor can 1t adequately
be carried out in the light of the
national defense relationship. Only
through federal regulation can this
be accomplished.
