POSTWAR AVIATION

Form Of International Control Possible

(Rec. 10 p.m.) NEW YORK, Nov. 4. The Air Conference adopted a resolution accepting the principle of international collaboration in postwar commercial aviation and expressing the hope that an international organization may be established, says The New York Times Chicago correspondent. The resolution did not involve a commitment between the conflicting proposals of the British, American, Canadian, Australian and New Zealand delegations, but strengthened the feeling that the participating nations do not want the conference to end in failure, and do desire to organize some kind of international body to prevent international air rivalries from interfering with world peace. Mr Adolf Berle, chairman of the United States delegation, proposed the establishment of an interim council for the immediate postwar period pending the establishment of a permanent body. Mr Berle’s proposal envisages an interim council consisting of 15 members, of which two would be from the United States, two British, two Russian, if Russia decides to participate, and one each Brazilian, Chinese and French. Tlie remaining six would be selected to assure the representation of other areas, three from Europe, two from the western hemisphere, and one from Asia and Africa.
