CIVIL AVIATION
REMARKABLE ROUND ROBIN
PRESENTED TO MR MACDONALD.
ANXIETY ABOUT RESTRICTIONS
By Telegraph-Press Assn.—Copyright. (Received 10. 11.45 a.m.) London, March 9.
The aeronautical community of Britain presented Mr. Ramsay MacDonald with a remarkable round robin on the eve of his departure for Geneva. The signatories are anxious about the efforts which are being made to place strictures upon civil aviation in the guise of securing disarmament. They emphasise the necessity for developing quick Imperial communication and the fact that Britain is leading in the export of aircraft material. They ask that in no circumstances shall confused thinking on the subject of military and naval aviation react disadvantageously to the legitimate expansion of British civil aviation. The signatures were collected by means of two aerpolanes which visaed all flying clubs and air transport concerns and were thus able to deliver the petition at Downing Street within 36 hours.
