AMERICAN BAR ASSOCIATION 
 
 Committee on the Law of Aviation 
 
 To the EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE : 
 
 For the information of the Executive Committee, and as an 
 indication of serious progress in behalf of its Committee on 
 the Law of Aviation, 1 take this occasion to report: 
 
 That the Committee organized upon the appointment of its 
 members by the President of the Association; its member- 
 ship is as follows : 
 
 Charles A. Boston, New York City, N. Y., Chairman. 
 
 Orrin H. Carter, Chicago, 111. 
 
 William P. Bynum, Greensboro, North Carolina. 
 
 George G. Bogert, Ithaca, N. Y. 
 
 William P. McCracken, Chicago, 111. 
 
 Before the selection of members of the Committee, but with 
 knowledge that the Committee had been authorized, the Gov- 
 ernors of The Aero Club of America designated a Committee 
 which we hope will co-operate with us in our activities. The 
 members of this Committee are as follows : 
 
 William W. Miller, of Hornblower, Miller & Garrison. 
 
 Stephen H. Philbin, of Fish, Richardson & Meade. 
 
 Philip A. Carroll, of Shearman & Sterling. 
 
 *W. Benton Crisp, of Crisp, Randall & Crisp, and 
 
 Col. Arthur O'Brien, of the Blair Securities Corpora- 
 tion, all of New York City. 
 
 Of these Mr. Philbin is of counsel for the Wright-Martin 
 Company, and Mr. Crisp was of counsel for the Curtiss 
 Company ; Colonel Carroll was active in the aviation forces 
 of America in Europt, and Colonel O'Brien was one of the 
 assistants to the Secretary of W?.r. 
 
 The Chairman of our Committee has been in correspondence 
 with John Hinkley, Esq., of Baltimore, Maryland, Chairman 
 of the Committee of the Commissioners on Uniform State 
 Laws upon a uniform aviation law. 
 
 Consideration has been given to the letter of Mr. William V. 
 Rooker, of Indianapolis on the Jurisprudence of the Atmos- 
 phere, which was circulated among the members of the Con- 
 ference of Delegates at St. Louis last summer, and which 
 contains information and endeavors to classify powers, (i) 
 as between the United States and foreign governments; (2) 
 as between the United States and the Several States ; (3) as be- 
 tween the political and judicial departments of the United 
 States; (4) as between the State and the owner of land; (5) 
 finally, the nature of such jurisprudence. 
 
 * Mr. Crisp has since died. 
 
The Chairman has also considered the report of the Com- 
 mission appointed by the Governor of New York in the year 
 1920. Augustus Post, Secretary of the Aero Club of America 
 has kindly volunteered to give information and suggestions 
 upon the legal side of the subject oi aviation and aeronautics; 
 Mr. Post was Secretary of the Commission appointed by the 
 Governor of New York. 
 
 The Conference of Commissioners on Uniform State Laws 
 at its meeting in August, 1920, adopted the following resolu- 
 tion : 
 
 The whole world has come to a realization of the 
 fact that Aviation is practical and not a mere art or 
 fad for pleasure and profit in exhibition flying, for 
 many States in the Union now have scores of aviators 
 constantly flying from State to State carrying com- 
 merce between the States, which aviation needs regu- 
 lation, so your Committee recommends the appointment 
 of a special committee to investigate this subject and 
 report as soon as practical a uniform aviation law. 
 
 The members of the Committee of the Commissioners are : 
 
 John Hinkley, Baltimore, Md. 
 Charles V. Imley, Washington, D. C. 
 Thomas J. Brooks, Bedford, Ind. 
 N. E. Corthell, Laramie, Wyo. 
 George G. Bogert, Ithaca, N. Y. 
 A. T. Stovall, Okolona, Miss. 
 George B. Young, Montpelier, Vt. 
 
 Mr. Hinkley has indicated that he considers that the scope 
 of the two committees is different, in that our Committee as he 
 assumes is authorized to consider particularly the interstate 
 and international features of the question, while his Committee 
 is limited to matters of strictly State regulation. 
 
 Our Committee through its Chairman has been in corre- 
 spondence with members of the Committee; the Librarian of 
 the New York Public Library ; Hon. Simeon E. Baldwin of 
 Connecticut; the Chief of the Economics Division of the New 
 York Public Library ; the Foreign Manager of the International 
 Fire and Marine Agency Corporation ; the Assistant Librarian 
 of the Association of the Bar of the City of New York; the 
 Librarian of Congress, Washington, D. C. ; The Secretary of 
 Commerce, Washington ; a Senator of the United States, mem- 
 ber of the American Bar Association ; Editor of the Literary 
 Digest (in respect tq an article in the December 4, 1920 num- 
 ber on American Backwardness in Formulating Laws of the 
 Air) ; the Chief of the United States Army Air Service; the 
 President of the Board of Aldermen of the City of New York ; 
 one of the District Judges of the United States for the 
 Southern District of New York ; the Director of the Bureau 
 of Standards, Department of Commerce, Washington, D. C. 
 
As the result of this correspondence he has received the fol- 
 lowing : 
 
 From the New York Public Library a copy of the entries in 
 its catalogue on Aviation Law, which, however, is not intended 
 to include a multitude of magazine articles or chapters in books, 
 documents, etc., which a search would bring to light. The 
 Library has grafiwously tendered the use of a research room 
 in the Economics Division and all of the material in the Library 
 on the subject; 
 
 From Judge Baldwin a list of his numerous published articles 
 on aviation ; 
 
 From the Foreign Manager of the International Fire and 
 Marine Agency Corporation the tender of information of avia- 
 tion insurance men gained from experience in the Scandinavian 
 countries, England and France on this subject; 
 
 From the Assistant Librarian of the Association of the Bar 
 of the City of New York a list of the works appearing in the 
 subject catalogue of the Library under the head of Aviation 
 (Aeronautics, see Aviation) ; 
 
 A communication from the Judge Advocate General to the 
 Senator above indicated, giving full information respecting ac- 
 tion on the regulation of air navigation in the United States, 
 from which it appears that legislation has been passed already 
 in Hawaii, California, Massachusetts, Michigan, Texas, Wash- 
 ington and Wisconsin, while New York now permits aircraft 
 insurance. The Judge Advocate furnished an informative list 
 of articles on the subject, not appearing in the other lists fur- 
 nished to us from other sources. It appears that his office has 
 not yet rendered any opinion on the subject, but that some 
 study has been devoted to it and some observations have been 
 made; 
 
 A list of publications on the Law of Aviation in the Library 
 of Congress; 
 
 A list of the works on Aviation Law listed in the catalogue 
 of the New York Public Library ; 
 
 Report of the Aviation Commission of the State of New 
 York; 
 
 An invitation from the President of the Board of Aldermen 
 of the City of New York to attend a preliminary meeting on 
 January 4th, 1921, relative to a regulating ordinance for flying 
 over the City; 
 
 Copies of bills pending before Congress (H. R. 14061, intro- 
 duced May 13, 1920 by Mr. Kahn; H. R. 14137, introduced 
 May 19, 1920 by Mr. Hicks) ; 
 
 Sixth Annual Report of the National Advisory Committee 
 for Aeronautics. 
 
 Among the suggestions elicited from this correspondence are 
 the following: 
 
That from the experience in aviation insurance in many 
 countries there arises a conviction that it is of vital importance 
 to cover as big a territory as possible by the same regulations, 
 and this imperatively calls for Federal laws and Federal su-. 
 pervision, and any legislation by single States, as effective and 
 well-devised as it may be, will ultimately be detrimental to a 
 branch of transportation which by its very nature is success- 
 fully possible only if employed over great distances ; that such 
 legislation may concern the ship, its cargo, its passengers, 
 ports of flying, the routes and the transportation company 
 itself, and one of its most important points is the person of 
 the pilot ; 
 
 Information that the Lloyds have an Aviation Committee, 
 and that a bill has been brought before the British Parliament 
 by the British Civil Control Department for Air, intended to 
 give that Department fuller powers by extending very con- 
 siderably the British Air Navigation Acts of 191 1 to 1919. 
 We are making an effort to secure copies of these Acts; 
 
 The serious embarrassment to national regulation growing 
 out of the dual nature of our Government, and the division of 
 powers between the National and State Governments ; 
 
 The absence of any grant oi express power over the general 
 subject of aviation in the Constitution of the United States; 
 
 The possibility, indeed the probability, that the extent of the 
 power of Congress, or the Government of the United States, 
 over the subject of aviation is determined by the incidental re- 
 lation of aviation to other subjects, such as international af- 
 fairs, interstate and foreign commerce, and other matters 
 within the domain of congressional power or Federal control 
 by the express grants of the Constitution, and their necessary 
 implications; that a serious effort is making to have Congress 
 take the view that the control of aviation is within the ad- 
 miralty jurisdiction of the United States Government; that it is 
 far better that the express power should be conferred upon the 
 United States by amendment of the Constitution, than that in 
 constitutional matters the United States Government should 
 grasp powers that were not contemplated, and are not neces- 
 sarily incident to the powers already conferred upon it. 
 
 The Foreign Manager oi the International Fire and Marine 
 Agency Corporation in New York has kindly volunteered to 
 confer with his company's London office and secure copies of 
 the English air navigation acts, and the new bill now pending 
 in Parliament. It is suggested' that this legislation is doubtless 
 the most up to date and complete now in existence, and that 
 its study will probably convey considerable indication of points 
 worthy the attention and supervision of a Government. 
 
 It is suggested that the hazards involved to the person of a 
 pilot, the physical conditions of the aeroplane, the hangar, the 
 landing field, etc., have repeatedly been discussed recently by 
 American aviation insurance people, and the necessity for 
 
combined action having clearly arisen there was organized last 
 July the National Aircraft Underwriters Association, with the 
 immediate object to exercise a control over pilots, but with a 
 larger field in contemplation, comprising every factor which 
 may influence aviation insurance ; 
 
 That there is a tendency to assert exclusive jurisdiction of 
 this subject matter in the Federal Government, on the theory 
 that it comes within the admiralty jurisdiction; and a tendency 
 to rush to the National Government with all grievances, re- 
 gardless of the constitutional view that it is a Government of 
 limited powers, and that powers not expressly granted, or 
 necessarily implied in the actual grant are reserved to the 
 States respectively", or the people thereof ; 
 
 That it seems advisable for constitutional minds to get busy 
 on this new field of jurisprudence; 
 
 That navigation of the air in America has itself been back- 
 ward, thus requiring very little formal interference or regula- 
 tion, and that the division of powers between State and Na- 
 tional Governments make it advisable that early efforts at legis- 
 lation should be very carefully conceived in order to avoid a 
 conflict between National and State authority, which otherwise 
 is almost inevitable. 
 
 The Secretary of the Aero Club of America has kindly vol- 
 unteered to furnish to a member of the Committee the names 
 and addresses of the officers of aviators' associations as those 
 who may be especially interested in proposed Federal or State 
 legislation on aviation ; 
 
 The Senator above indicated kindly volunteered to take the 
 matter up with the Chief of the Air Department, and with the 
 Judge Advocate General ; 
 
 Information respecting the issuance in the Southern District 
 of New York of a libel against an hydro-aeroplane; 
 
 A suggestion that the National Advisory Committee for 
 Aeronautics has submitted to Congress a report containing a 
 recommendation for the creation of a Bureau of Aeronautics 
 by Congress, to be headed by a Commissioner of Air Naviga- 
 tion, charged with Federal regulation of commercial air traffic, 
 the licensing of pilots, aircraft and landing fields, and all other 
 details not military in character ; 
 
 Information that the meet held under the auspices of the 
 Aero Club of America on Thanksgiving Day, 1920, in competi- 
 tion for the Pulitzer Trophy and the Samuel M. Valentine 
 Prizes, was the most successful aircraft meet ever held in this 
 country, forty-four of the fastest airplanes in the world, repre- 
 senting American, British, French, Italian and German de- 
 signs being among the competitors. 
 
 That those interested in aeronautics are divided in- opinion 
 as to the action to be taken by the Government ; first, those 
 who favor a separate department of aeronautics, covering all 
 
phases of the subject, both military and civil; second, those 
 who believe the army should develop its aviation corps con- 
 sistent with the needs of the army, that the navy should com- 
 bine its aviation under one head in the form of an aviation 
 corps, division or bureau, and that the civil functions, such as 
 the establishment of navigation rules, licensing of machines, 
 pilots, etc., should be performed by a small civil bureau estab- 
 lished for that purpose in the Department of Commerce. 
 
 The bills which have been introduced are said to be an em- 
 bodiment of the second of the propositions, though it is pos- 
 sible that if it should develop that a separate department is 
 essential, the three aviation services could be combined. 
 
 The resume of observations accompanying the letter of the 
 Judge Advocate General deals with the constitutionality of Fed- 
 eral legislation and legislation regulating air navigation, chiefly 
 with analogies of decided cases and legislation in somewhat 
 kindred fields-; it deals with air navigation as commerce, with 
 the analogy of the migratory bird acts; with the analogy to 
 railroad traffic ; with the analogy to radio-telegraphy ; with the 
 desirability for uniform legislation ; with the absolute necessity 
 for uniformity in the protection of interstate and foreign air 
 navigation, and the probable effects of such legislation over 
 intrastate air navigation ; with the analogy of the regulation 
 of private pleasure water craft ; with the analogy between 
 navigable air and navigable water; with the possibility of con- 
 flict between State and Federal claims, in that the Constitution 
 does not grant the same authority over navigable air as over 
 navigable water; with the embarrassment caused by the com- 
 mon law doctrine of cujus est solum, ejus est usque ad coelum, 
 and with the denial of the existence of this doctrine, or its 
 limitation by altitude; with the subjection of aircraft to Na- 
 tional regulation, and by reason of their relation to the safety 
 of other craft over which the National Government would un- 
 doubtedly have jurisdiction; with the incidental effect of the 
 exercise of congressional power to see that interstate commerce 
 may be conducted upon fair terms and without molestation and 
 hindrance ; with the effect of treaties as extending the national 
 power to deal with the subject covered by the treaty; with the 
 effect of action by Congress over matters clearly within its 
 jurisdiction, but incidentally also within the jurisdiction of the 
 State police power, or other power ; with the difference be- 
 tween the exercise by Congress of power in anticipation of a 
 treaty, and of power in fulfilment of a treaty.

 Information From War Department, Office of the 
 Judge Advocate General, Washington. 
 
 The following states have passed laws as indicated : 
 
 Chap. Subject Matter 
 
 107 Operation withoutlicense prohibited. 
 300 Use in hunting prohibited. 
 306 Operation regulated. 
 82 Use in hunting prohibited. 
 9 Construction, etc., corporations 
 authorized. 
 48 Maintenance of facilities by local 
 governments. 
 613 County stations for aircraft. 
 
 The above is believed to be all the state legislation bearing 
 on this subject. New York, by recent amendments to its In- 
 surance Law, now permits casualty, marine and fire insurance 
 on "airplanes, seaplanes, dirigibles, or other aircraft" (Ch. 391, 
 392, 393, Laws of 1919), but has not legislated otherwise on 
 the subject.

A valuable article will be found in "The American Journal 
 of International Law" for July, 1920, by Arthur K. Kuhn, 
 Counsel to the Peace Conference of the League to Enforce 
 Peace, entitled "International Aerial Navigation and the Peace 
 Conference." (See his note on page 372 thereof for refer- 
 ences to several other articles). Senate Document No. 91, 
 66th Congress, First Session, contains the convention relating 
 to International Air Navigation, and "Public Affairs Informa- 
 tion Service, 1919," lists the following articles: 
 
 "British Regulations for Aerial Navigation, by Henry Wood- 
 house, in "Flying" 8 : 525-32, July 1919. 
 
 "International Law and the Air," by M. E. Flor T. .(sic), in 
 "Inter-American" 2 :55-64, Oct. 1919. 
 
 Submarines and Aircraft under the League of Nations," by 
 L. C. Money in "New France" 3 :467-8, April, 1919. 
 
 "Information Annual, 1915" contained the following item: 
 
 "B. H. Hendricks of Atlantic City, N. J., was fined 
 $3.00 for flying without lights on his hydroaeroplane, 
 September 10th. Government officials at Washington 
 having decided that in its dual life the hydroaeroplane 
 might be immune from Governmental control in the 
 air, but if it undertook to be a boat and sailed the sea 
 within the jurisdiction of the United States authori- 
 ties it would have to obey the law there was on the 
 subject of coastwise navigation." 
 
 And in "Information Annual, 1916," the following items ap- 
 peared : 
 
 "Hydroaeroplanes received the status, February 21st 
 (1916) of 'vessels' in an order issued by Assistant 
 Secretary of Treasury Peters, and sent out from 
 Washington to all custom houses of the country. 
 Aeroplanes, however, were not to be deemed vessels. 
 
 "The first set of international law bills for airships 
 and the space above the earth was adopted at the re- 
 cent Pan-American conference held in Santiago, 
 Chile. A copy of the bills reached the Aero Club of 
 America, July 22nd. The conference resolved to re- 
 commend the bills to all American countries. 
 
 "The bills provide that all space too high to be util- 
 ized by the proprietor of the ground beneath shall be 
 declared public property for public use. 
 
 "All nations shall have a sovereign right to the 
 space dominated by their territories, and private aero^ 
 planes belonging to the citizens and the legal 1 esidents 
 of a country shall have the right of passage through 
 the space over other nations. 
 
 "Every aeroplane or other airship shall have a na- 
 tionality. 
 
 16 
 
"Public aircraft shall have the nationality of the 
 nation to which they belong and private machines the 
 nationality of the individual owning them. 
 
 "All aircraft shall carry distinctive badges of na- 
 tionality after they have been correspondingly regis- 
 tered. 
 
 "The nations shall endeavor, when there is aerial 
 warfare, not to harm neutral countries and endeavor 
 not to restrict the commerce of neutral nations. 
 
 "Aeroplanes shall be employed by the Red Cross 
 for acts of mercy. 
 
 "To facilitate aerial locomotion and to produce uni- 
 form legislation, a congress will be called to draft a 
 universal code."

 Department. 
 
 Brief in Support of Constitutionality of Proposed Bill. 
 
 Through the War Department Air Service 
 
 the Committee is informed that at the present time there is no 
 Federal law in existence for the registration of aircraft nor for 
 the licensing of operators. Under the President's proclamation 
 of February 28, 1918, all persons who wished to operate air- 
 craft over the United States or its territories were required to 
 obtain licenses from the Joint Army and Navy Board on Aero- 
 nautic Cognizance. This proclamation, which was a war meas- 
 ure, was, however, rescinded on July 31, 1919. At the present 
 time the only law which may be considered to control air traffic 
 in the United States is that covered in a ruling of the Solicitor 
 for the Department of Commerce. 
 
 The only other restrictions are those contained in local 
 laws and ordinances in the following localities: State of Con- 
 necticut, State of Massachusetts, County of Los Angeles, Cali- 
 fornia ; City of Newark, New Jersey ; Atlantic City, New 
 Jersey; Town of Nutley, New Jersey, and Kissimee, Florida.

 Page 5 : The last session was occupied with Law of the 
 Air, the new field of international action and regulation 
 which modern invention and enterprise has opened to the 
 world, and the chairman, Professor Sir Erie Richards, in 
 
 37 
 
presenting the subject, summarized admirably the present 
 international position. Special attention was called to the 
 Association's previous treatment of the subject, and to the 
 fact that international agreement and practice, before, 
 during, and since the war have confirmed the correctness 
 of the resolutions of our last (Madrid) Conference in 
 1913, adopting the principle of territorial air sovereignty 
 as opposed to that of the freedom of the air ; and valuable 
 suggestions were made by the .writers of papers and 
 . speakers for its further development.
