A fninis try survey showed that 1,560, 000 children were born last year, 100,000 less than in 1956. Deaths increased near ly 30,000 to 750,000. Two Asian flu epidemics were blamed for the jump in deaths. Suicides by teen-agers and persons in their early 20s also increased. ; Editor's note: This is the second of a series on air safety written for United Press International. To day, James Pyle, head of the Civil Aeronautics Administration, tells how his agency is meeting the challenge oi the jet transport age. By JAMES T. PYLE Wrillen for UPI Washington (UPI) The problem is simple air traffic has been increasing faster than the Civil Aeronautics Administration's capability of handling it. Recent mid-air collisions have brought into sharp focus the critical need for positive segregation of ' visual flight rules (VFR) arid instrument flight rules (IFR) along the nation's airways. Under VFR, pilots assume full responsibil ity for avoiding other aircraft, Under IFR, pilots operate un der the monitoring and guid ance of federal air traffic con trol centers. In the past, the volume and speed of the traffic permitted full VFR operations in , good weather, complete IFR opera tions in bad weather, and even a mixture of the under "see and be seen" ditions. Control Became a Must But the first crack in our control armor came in the early 1950s. It became ap parent that our traffic control system could not accept all the IFR traffic clamoring for use of the airways. Remedying this situation became our most immediate and pressing problem. In the current concern over air safety, many people have lost sight of what has been achieved.

' y capable of handling the bulk of IFR traffic wanting to use the. airways! Have Increased Capacity In the past two years, we have increased the capacity of our system from 12,000 to 17,000 instrument flights daily. As -the federal airway plans continue to bd imple mented, this capacity will con tinue to increase; more and more "hardware" is coming off the production lines to im prove our capabilities to con trol the traffic, and at the same time air traffic control personnel are being trained at an unprecedented rate. We have the IFR problem in hand, at least for the time being. But we still are face to face with the problem of large scale operations under VFR conditions. While the CAA has been aware of this growing prob lem for some time, it still is incapable of providing separ ation for the 50,000 flights which occur every day in good weather. And we are now in an emergency situa tion where the fastest possible action must be taken. Problem Outlined The immediate CAA pro gram to improve the safety of air operations in visual flight rules conditions is three-fold: 1. Using the authority es tablished under a recently adopted CAB regulation, we have collaborated with the military and civil airspace users in the development of a plan to establish certain alti tudes on a limited number of airways within which all air craft will operate on a traffic clearance and be p'rovided positive separation from other aircraft regardless of weather conditions. ' . 2. Joint CAA-military teams have been visiting key Air Force" 'and Naval Training Command bases since June 7. These teams are reviewing military, training activities and determine how to provide separate airspace, insofar as possible, for the conduct of these activities so they will be segregated from traffic using the civil airways. 4-1 CLUB NEWS Table Rock Busy Bees The Table Rock Busy Bees club met at the home of Mrs. Myers on June 4 for a work meeting.

Because so many report ed near misses occur in the vicinity of airports, we have started a program to test and evaluate procedures whereby additional traffic advisory service will be given to all arriving and departing air craft requesting such service within a 20-30 mile radius of controlled airports equipped with surveillance radar.

Back Stairs: Ike's Address Changed By DAYTON MOORE United Press International Washington UPI Back stairs at the White House: President Eisenhower orig inally planned to use his com mencement address at the U. S. Naval Academy as the sounding board" for another plug for the defense reorgani zation bill. But it was decided that a blistering attack against crit ics before a Navy audience might boomerang. It was fear ed that the Navy's congress ional supporters, who have been in the forefront of the opposition, would cite the speech as proof that the Presi dent favors the other services over the Navy. .. It was agreed that a more effective step would be for the President to issue a state ment which he did out lining his objections to three changes written into the plan by the House Armed Services Committee. West German President Theodor Heuss will carry back to Germany a gift for his granddaughter, Barbara Heuss, partly from another President's granddaughter, an other Barbara. Mrs. Eisenhower presented the gift a pearl on a golden chain necklace to Heuss at a White House dinner in Heuss' honor Wednesday night. The accompanying card read: "For Barbara from the Ei senhower grandchildren." Barbara Anne Eisenhower is the second oldest of the Presi dent's four grandchildren she was nine Memorial Day. Barbara Heuss is 10. The President brought his first golfing partner into his official family last week when he picked John A. McCone to be a member of the Atomic Energy Commission. Eisenhower and .McCone are fellow members of two clubs and have played togeth er several times. The clubs are Burning Tree in suburban Maryland and Blind Brook at Larchmont, N. Y.
