How can so many planes arrive and depart without confusion and- accidents? Four-motore- d With radio and the airport control tower, planes move in a pattern of skyways, just as automobiles follow definite roads. Air traffic Is a science, Insuring safety and abolishing confusion. The control tower operator, microin hand, diphone or pistol-ligh- t rects airport traffic as effectively as a traffic cop. Tower operators must keep traffic moving at a reasonable rate of speed, clear runways for the arrival and departure of dition, suffering from fright.

Drastic., ys Control Tower - Operators - By a virtual stipulated agreement, the United States and the state of Utah today had girded their loins for a legal battle over the jurisdiction of a strip' of airways running crisseross through the state. The first victory went to Uncle Sam- - last night in Federal District Court, but It merely cleared the decks for action before a higher audience, the U. S. Circuit Court of Appeals. Caught In between the two sovereigns are three local air men who violated, federal Civil Aeronautics Authority rules in a homemade plane, but complied .of the Utah State Aeronautics' Commission. The fliers are LeRoy George Graham and Alfred H. and Court A. Rosenham. U. S. Judge Tillman D Johnson took judiclal notice of -- the defendants predicament by fining them only one dollar on each of the counts contained in the com plaints char in effect with operating a flying machine without a CAA certificate of air worthiness. By its intervention in the case the state of Utah contests the CAAs jurisdiction of part of and gives the suit national importance as a test, government ..contends that the' Civil Aeronautics Act of 1938, regulating air commerce, gives the CAA Jurisdiction over the air contained in a path extending interstate from the West- to the East Coast and were oper tthat the- defendants vehicle in ating their home-mad- e one of these paths without a certificate. The state counters with an admission that the defendants were ao operating, but that the air in question is under state lurisdic tion and that the plane in question had a state air worthiness certificate. The states attorneys argue thatthe defendants aircraft at no time crossed state line and that the people of Utah have not made a constitutional grant of the states soveriqgnty in the space above the land and waters of the state. The provisions of the federal CAA relative to air worthiness certificates on planes navigating in these areas are unreasonable and arbitrary," the state further contends. Calvin L. Rampton, assistant attorney general is representing the state, with John S. Boyden, sistant U. S district attornev, representing the United States' ivfi Pit.
