day on a basic bill Of rights to
protect fundamental freedoms in
the IL nations making up the
European Council.
Sir David Maxwell-Fyfe Of

vention would seek to standardize

Air Carrier Law Hit
By Colonial Air|ines
By the Assoeiofed Press


Colonial Airlines is challenging
the constitutionality Of the basic
law on foreign air carrier opera
tions in this country in its efforts
to head of Canadian competition,
The main contention Is that the
1898 Civil Aeronautics Act gives
the President more Of Congress
authority than he can have under
the Constitution.
The American carrier lost one
round of the fight yesterday. but
won a second.
Judge Edward M. Curran In
District Court refused to enjoin
the Civil Aeronautics Board
against holding q hearing Mon
day on the application Of Trans
Canada Airlines for a permit to
fly between New York and Mont
real. But the judge did forbid
the CAB to make any recommen-
dation to President Truman on the
Canadian application.
That will keep the matter In
the courts jurisdiction until Colo
NAL can carry out its constitu-
tional test.
Heretofore Colonial has had the
New York-Montreal run to itself.
It told the court its stock value
dropped by $1,000. 900 after an
nouncement Of the United States
Canada agreement permitting
Trans Canada to compete.
While the court was considering
the Colonial petition. the CAB
fixed September 10 for hearing
on Colonial's request to be allowed
to fly the New York-Toronto
route in counter competition with
Trans Canada.
