IS URGEDjT CM
Survey Shows 3,000 More
Fields Needed After War;
Ask Community Planning.
Washington, July 23 UR)
Congress soon will receive from
the Civil Aeronautics Adminis
tration a survey showing the
need for a $1,000,000,000 airport
construction program, including
thousands of small fields for
"personal flying."
Assistant Secretary of Com
merce William A. M. Burden said
In a Sunday radio address that,
the survey would show that the
nation's 3.0B8 airports should be
increased by 3,000 within five to
10 years after the war, while
1,625 existing airports should be
Improved.
Joint Program
Burden said the study con
templated a Joint federal-state
program, under which the fed
eral government would appro
priate 5100,000,000 yearly while
state governments would provide
another $100,000,000. In this
way, he said, the $1,000,000,000
program could be completed
within five years.
He called on all communities
to plan now the part they would
play in such a program. While
some additional large air termin
als will be needed, he said, 2,900
of the 3,000 new fields probably
would be smallcd types of land
ing areas.
1.827 Big Airports
Burden explained that under
the plan, 1,827 cities would have
airports which could accommo
date "anything from charter
service and small local or feeder
lines to transcontinental express
service, according to the travel
market the area offers."
The cost of facilities for the
1,827 cities would be about $630,
000,000. The remainder of the
proposed $1,000,000,000 fund
would be spent to spot the coun
try "with small airports for per
sonal flying," Burden said.
The Michigan conservation de
partment operates 14 fish hatch
eries, 13 trout rearing stations
and eight mnjor bass and blucglll
rearing ponds to produce game
fish for stocking waters through
out the state.
COL CHAMBERLIN
HAS ID WORD
FOR PEOPLE HERE
In a farewell statement yester
day. Col. F. T.'Chambcrlin, for
mer medical director and post
surgeon for Camp White, stated
that in all his 27 years of army
experience he had never before
found citizens or agencies as co
operative as those of Medford
and the Rogue River valley. Col.
and Mrs. Chumbcrlin, here since
February, 1943, left this morn
ing for Camp Lockett, Cal.,
where the army is establishing
the first army service force con
valescent center which the colo
nel will command.
"I never asked for anything
that wasn't forthcoming. Col
Chamberlin declared, and added
that the cooperative spirit of
both persons and agencies had
been "remarkable." The officer
stated that he and hlsMaff mem
bers were leaving with the deep
est regret, and said that the rush
of army business prevented him
from calling personally on the
many civilians in this area who
had worked with him in various
ways during his stay at Camp
White. Many officers, noncom
missioned officers and nurses are
being transferred to Camp Lock
ett from the colonel's staff here.
