WINGS & WHEELS
By CHARLES YARBRoueH

There is a new, bright COM
patability developing between
the rule-making Civil Aer0nau-
tic Board and the enforcing
Civil Aer0nautics Administra-
ton.
Prime example came last
week when the CAB handed
over to CAA Administrator
James T. Pyle unprecedented
power over the Nations air.

Always now operated by the
CAA. 1885 square miles of
restricted areas, 1857 square
miles of prohibited areas and
377.178 square miles of off,
shore warning areas.
Another example comes to-
day when Mr.. Pyle gives CAB
Chairman James X. Durfee,
Member Harmar ID. Denny and
staff members de luxe tour of
National Airport, including
some samples of instrument
flying and landing. Last week
two other Board members were
given the same tour.
1t maybe redundant to tell
the Board that National Air

busy places, but they appreci-
ate seeing it for themselves.
AS a further convincer, Mr..
Pyle. in an article coming up
in the first issue of the Air

ISOLATION magazine "The AOPA
Pilot" says all forecasts on the
growth of civil aviation "are
proving to be low"
Timely proof of this comes
from Joseph T. Geuting, jr.,
manager of the Utility Airplane
Council of Aircraft Industries.
Mr.. Geuting's report for 1857
shows delivery of Glib one-to-

aircraft with a dollar value of
1895 million. A reluctant man

If you lose or have lost your
Job during this recession. and
as a result you can't keep up
payments due on your bank
loans. go to your banker, tell
him the whole truth. ask for
help.
You will get the assistance
you need.
Your banker will work out
new arrangements which will
relieve you of the devastating,
relentless pressures of your
debts until you are called back
to work or get another job and
are back on your financial feet.
This is a message from the
bankers themselves.
Otto c. Lorenz, associate edi-
tor of. the American Banker,
the only daily banking news
paper in the country. recently
surveyed 100 bankers from
coast to coast specializing in
installment loans. / have seen
the list of bankers questioned;
they are the leaders in the in
stallment credit field.
Policy Is Stressed
Without exception, the bank
ers declared 1t is now policy to
help any borrower who falls
into a financial trap because
Of sudden misfortune-loss of
q job. staggering medical bills,
similar disasters. Without ex-
ception. they emphasized that
the era Of quick repossessions
when loan payments are over
due is dead.
They said they would crack
down on only two types Of bor-
rowers now:
The chronic deadbeat - the
man who defaults on payments
when he is in q position to
make them:
The borrower they can't
reach-the man who panics,
tries to hide from his creditors,
attempts to conceal the facts.
Let's take the case of Joe,
one Of the approximately 5 mil
lion out of work today. Let's
say Joe is now at the point
where he can't meet the
monthly payment due on his
bank loan. What might the
bank do?
First. 1t probably would sug-
gest rewriting Joe's loan deal
to cut the monthly payment
within Joe's capacity to pay
Or 1t might suggest an ex-
tension Of the loan and a waiver
Of the first two or three pay
ments.
Or it even might carry Joe
along in its past due" loan
file, accepting payments from
him when and as he could make
them.
