Anniversary OF Airport Squabble
Finds Matter Still To Be Settled

things over with George Baker,
president of NAL.
As a result of that meeting, NAL
put three flights into service be-
tween Miami and Key West on
April IL.
Fall Action
After that the hassle dragged a.
long until Sept. 16 when NAL men
came here from Miami and Wash
ington to meet with the county
commissioners.
That meeting ended when Ger
aid Saunders, chairman of the
board of county commissioners
handed NAL a 5,144 bill for NAL S
use of Meachan from Jan. l TO
Aug. 81, 1854.
A couple of weeks later, when
NAL hadn't paid the bill Gas a mat
ter of fact, it hasn't been paid yeti
the commissioners called another
meeting.
That was Sept. 80. They voted
to take legal action to collect the
bill.
On Oct. II, Harold Wilde, county
airport adviser, handed NAL a no.
tice to either pay the bill or quit
Meacham Airport within three day
The notice was filed in accordance
with the delinquent tenants act.
Nothing Happened
NAL neither paid nor quit the
field.
This ultimatum by the county
apparently woke up the Chamber
of Commerce and the Junior Cham
Der of Commerce.
At commission meeting the
night of Oct. IL, Harold Laubscher,
chamber manager, and Harry
knight of the junior chamber both
appeared.
They wanted to stall the ousting
of NAL but the county commission
ers gave them a fast brush-off and
said they were going ahead with
the eviction proceedings.
And they did, too.
Petition For Custer
On Oct. Is, Paul Sawyer, county
legal adviser, filed a petition with
Judge Lord in County Court ask
ing that NAL be put out of Mea-
cham Field for non paymentof
The Key West citizen., 1954-12-31

"A Ilnal nearing on the
matter is scheduled for next
Tuesday b e f ore Circuit
Court Judge Aquilino Lopez,
Jr.
Also pending is a hearing before
County Judge Raymond r. Lord
on the county's attempt to OuSt
NAL from Meacham Airport for
non-payment of rent.
Whether or not this county court
hearing will be held depends upon
how Judge Lopez rules.
Could Continue
Even then, Lopez ruling may
not end the matter. Either side
can appeal to the Florida Sup
rene Court.
The .preliminarieS to the main
event began in 1858 when the coun-
ty put a new rate schedule into
effect at Meacham Airport. Before
1854 was very old, the Navy and
the Department of Commerce had
gotten into the act. And for a
while it seemed as if the boys
were ganging up to close Meacham
Airport for good.

But now that we are heading in
to the home stretch, it looks like
the county has won all its points
and will have an up-to-date air
port here by the middle of 1855.
Complaint Basis
NAILS big complaint about the
new rate structure which went into
effect Jan. l, 1854 was the fee of
so cents for each revenue passen-
ger taking off or landing at Mea-
cham.
The county commissioners call
ed a special meeting on Dec. 30,
1858. NAL representatives came
from Miami and the battle began.
The long, jangling row revolved
around the 5O-cent fee.
National fatty refused to pay il
and promised to cancel all but one
of its flights to Key West. At that
time NAL was flying four daily
1llgntS between Miami and Key
West.
The county commissioners would
not back down on their plan to
charge the so cent fee.
Flights Cut of
The following day, Dec. 81, 1853
NAL dropped three of its four
flights.
This caused considerable moan
ing, groaning and hair tearing on
the part of some Key West busi.
ness men, the flight cancellation
coming as they did right at the be-
ginning of the tourist season.
For the first few months of 1854.
the fight rocked along with both
sides counter punching beautifully.

Air Station. The Navy turned
down the request.

Judge Lord set Oct. 19 as the
date for a hearing on the petition,
but on the afternoon of Oct. IS
NAL moved into Circuit Court with
petition for an injunction to stop
the county from ousting the air
line and from collecting the bill.
On Oct. 18, Judge Lopez granted
a temporary injunction that bar
red the county from evicting NAL
from Meacham Airport or from
collecting the money the county
says NAL owes.
That's what Tuesdays final hear

Rosebud FB Urges
Game Law Changes

BECAUSE OF WHAT it considers
to be a serious overpopulation of
wild game in the area the Rosebud
County Farm Bureau has gone on
record as favoring law making the
state liable for damage caused to
farm and ranch property by pro-
tected wild animals and favoring
changes in present hunting license
regulations.
The action was recommended in
resolutions adopted by the Farm Blu
reau. One resolution urged that
Montana adopt the Colorado plan
for payment of damages to landown-
ers. Under this plan landowner
suffering damages would submit,
within 80 days, his claim to the COM
missioner of fish and wildlife. The
commissioner would investigate and,
if possible, establish an agreement
with the claimant on amount of set
Element If agreement were not pos
sible the matter would be submitted
to arbitration.
The resolution recommending
changes in license laws is as follows:
WHEREAS, we the Rose b u d
County Farm Bureau consider the
overpopulation of game to be serious
to the land owners of the state of
Montana therefore:
BE IT RESOLVED that we recon-
mend that the following steps be
taken to alleviate the situation:
1. Antelope license be included on
the regular big game license; the fee
be raised to 81 and antelope permits
to be abolished.
2. No hunting season shall b e
opened in conflict with the wishes
of the majority of land owners where
weather conditions are such as TO
endanger the area.
8. Issuance of special $25 out-of-
state big game license which would
entitle holder to take one deer and
one antelope.
f. In the event that an oversupply
of any big game animals persists
then two of that species shall be al
lowed on each big game license.
5. For the convenience of all hunt
ers and landowners, that the deer
and antelope seasons coincide in
areas where both species are prev.
alent.
