Regulation, Financing
OF Postwar Aviation
Proposed in New Bill
BY the Associated Press.

BY the AssocihteQ FreSS.
A postwar plan of Govern
ment regulated and financed
aviation has been drawn up in
Congress for action this autumn,
and the trainers call 1t the most
far-reaching legislation ever
conceived in the 40-year-history
of American aeronautics.
The bill has been drafted in the
House Interstate and Foreign Com
merce Committee, and copies now
are circulating among aviation in
terests for suggestions.
It's hackers, thinking of air travel
in the Nation and along the inter-
national skyways, believe their
measure is necessary to keep the
United States in step with the post
war world.
The bill would transform the Civil
Aeronautics Authority into the Civil
Aeronautics Commission" with a
completely independent status and
sweeping powers for the promotion,
regulation and investigation of
American aviation.
The first job of the commission
would be to make a full and COM
plete investigation "and to report to
the Congress" with respect to "all
phases of developments in air COM
merce and air navigation which may
be anticipated during the postwar
period"
1t is the intention of the trainers
that Congress then would provide
the cash whereby the expected-to-
be-revealed deficiencies and needs of
the industry could be overcome.
The commission would have au-
thority to determine what are the
interests of American sky-lanes and
where and how they will operate,
along with the right ito make pay
mentS to air-carriers to enable them
to promote the public interests"
This applies to both domestic and
international air transportation. On
the domestic side such payments
are scheduled to be for expert
mental purposes" only, but in the
international field they are un-
limited, subject only to the amounts
Of funds Congress makes available,
Additional duties would be to:
Require that civilian airlines op-
Grating in the international field
extend their lines still further if
the general interests of the United
States seemed to be promoted by
such extension. In case the extern
sion was not self-Supporting, the
commission could make up the diff
ference to the operators
Through a director of air safety,
investigate air accidents and draw
up recommendations to promote
safety.
Provide for a permanent program
for training civilian aviation per-
Sonnel that would be available tc
the Nation in time of war.
Develop and procure air naviga-
ton facilities, by cooperation with
the various States.
Regulate all business of transpor-
tation of persons and property by
air, both in interstate and foreign
commerce and also in intrastate
commerce
I'VE are on the eve of great things
In aeronautics," several of the au-
thors of the bill said. The general
idea behind this proposed measure
is to get the industry off on the
right foot in the great postwar de-
velopments."

New Zinc Rule
Is Pulling to
State Miners

Bewilderment of Montana mining
men following announcement of
new WPB policies in payments of
premiums to metal producers was
reflected this week in the state
ment of a prominent state operator,
who declined to be named. He said:
The mining industry is not
equipped to turn on and off pro-
duction much as water user can
turn on and off faucet. A stabil-
iEed plan encouraging production
is the only possible solution to the
metal producers problem. After In
sisting on increased production and
encouraging mining men to go to
all extremes in their efforts to get
out additional production of lead
and zinc, and even closing down
those mines in which the greater
values were in gold and silver, gov
eminent officials now propose to
discontinue former policies of en-
couraging the production of lead
and zinc.
The minerals policy committee
in Washington undoubtedly has a
clear understanding of the needs of
the nation and the production of
metals both in this country and
abroad, but it has consistently
shown by its actions that it has
an unsympathetic understanding of
the basic problems, principally of
the little miners of the west.
While it is said the "A bonuses
of 2.75c a pound on lead and zinc
win be continued as far as present
producers are concerned, it is
equally stated that marginal mines
win not be permitted to continue.
Mining men are wondering what
marginal mines means. Perhaps all
mines in Montana are marginal In
character by reason of their great
distances from markets"

Third oil CountrYs
Gasoline Used i'm Wor

Petroleum Administrator for War
Harold L. Ickes disclosed this
week that more than $4,000. 900 gal
Ions of gasoline, fuel oils, lubri-
cants and other petroleum products
are now going directly to the fight
ing forces every day.
The facts show that one-third of
all gasoline produced in the United
States is now required for military
purposes. PAW has previously re-
leased figures to show that, dur
ing 1914, military requirements will
exceed 81 per cent of the total gaso-
line produced throughout the coun-
try east of the Rocky mountains,
and will exceed 81 per cent in the
Rocky mountain and Pacific coast
regions.

His paper was of a semi-technical
nature, dealing with drilling prob
lens. But, in emphasizing how seri-
Gus these problems have become,
he gave without friIls an insight
into some of the problems pro
ducers are facing, without hope of
adequate return
Pertinent sections of his address
follow.
ION Oct. 25, there were approx
mately 1928 rotary rigs running In
the United States. Compare this
with 759 rigs which were running
on Jan. l 1943-an increase of 63.1
percent. It was estimated that on
Oct. rs there were 275 idle rigs in
the United States, a large percen-
tage of which were incapable of
operation due to shortages of Ger
tain equipment parts, drill pipe,
and drill collars, or because of the
unavailability of skilled labor need
ed to staff these rigs.
"In 1871, the year prior to our
entrance into the war, 1910 wells
were drilled. In 1912, 1910 wells
were drilled. To Oct. 2, 1913, 1872
wells had been drilled. If the rate
of competitions for September, 1913,
is extended, it is indicated approx
mately 1882 wells will be drilled
in 1913.
This represents a decrease of
As percent over 1941 compilations,
and A percent over 1912.
THE slow down in we'll compile
tions may be attributed to a COM
bination of factors:
"A great many of the wells drill
ing at this time are wildcat wells
which require a greater length of
time than wells drilled in proven
territory.
THE depth of drilling today is
generally greater than the depth of
drilling in 1941 and 1912.
''The lack of repair parts, the
inferior quality of material used
in making bits, the shortage of
skilled labor, and the use of In
experienced or inefficient labor In
the drilling of weIls-all of these
conditions together with govern
mental restrictions and regulations,
are largely responsible for the de-
crease in well competitions, notwith-
standing the fact that we are now
engaged in an accelerated drilling
campaign"
