SUGGESTS AIR
FIELD HERE
Col. Campbell Advises
That Hdrdin Might
Hove Airpdrk Built

In a recent letter to Mayor
Carl Rankin, Colonel Thomas D.
Campbell suggested that it
might he possible for Hardin to
have its airport improved I'M
der an "Airpark" program now
being considered for post war
construction.
Col. Campbell said in part:
This is going to be a big civil
aviation program and now is
the time for Hardin to get some
work done at TIE airport, such
as revolving beacon, night
lights, etc., including telephone
connections with Hardin.
Hardin is well located, the
field has been acquired; there
is not much leveling to be
done; it is a safe area and not
far from the radio beam"

COL. THOMAS CAMPBELL
Col. Campbell enclosed a clip
ping in his letter regarding the
air parks THAT it is hoped may
be built after the war is over.
Discussions regarding the pro-
ject were held at a recent ses-
sion of the National Aeronautic
association.
John E. Sommers, acting Civil
Aeronautics administrator was
one of the speakers. The article
says in part:
1.-The term air parks, Som
mers said refers to airfields
classified by the CAA as Glass 1,
with unpaved runways less than
$500 feet long .......
ALFRED Macdonald, director
of parks and airports of Wich-
1ta, KanS., told the conference
that airparks of from IS to 100
acres need not be expensive in
either development or mainten-
ance. Such small airports, he
said, should provide safe hangar
storage for $40 monthly or less.
"Airparks, Macdonald con-
tinued, could be part of a city's
park and recreational develop
ment, thus promoting land
scapfng and Identification of
flying strips"
Mayor Rankin stated that in
his opinion Hardin may as well
get on the map as a city with
a good airport with reasonable
facilities. The federal govern
ment will appropriate much
money to help this very impor-
tant program as a postwar act
lvlty which will make jobs for
many men, especially service
men, he added.
The suggestion outlined by
Col. Campbell should be followed
and no time lost in getting an
application to the proper gov
eminent agency, he pointed out.
