CIVIL AVIATION
BRITISH PROPOSALS (Rec. 10.20 a.m.) NEW YORK, November 8. The British proposals for post-war air traffic were closely linked with world peace, said Lord Swinton, addressing the Chicago Aviation Conference. Stressing that a strong international authority was needed to prevent another world war, Mr Swinton said that a country possessing a great fleet of transport planes would be in a position to launch airborne troops as the Germans did in Holland in 1940. He was strongly of the opinion that from the point of view of security, Germany and Japan should not be allowed to operate aeroplane factories, and air services.
