RULES OF THE AIR
CONFERENCE DISCUSSION AGREEMENT ON MANY POINTS By Cable.- —Press Association. — Copyright LONDON, Wednesday. Anglo-American official circles announce that Mr. Frederick Sterling, Counsellor to the United States Embassy in London, has been appointed Minister of the Free State Conference for International Air Navigation, at which 22 nations were represented. He has drawn up a rule of air regulations obviating the possibility of collision between machines following rivers and canals. Machines must keep to the left and cross at right angles. It was agreed that airplanes used in connection with the League of Nations must have a special identification mark, which would be a black line across the nationality mark, thus preventing delay in entering different countries, particularly when it was necessary to rush delegates to Geneva without Customs delay. The new air dictionary eliminates “dirigible” and retains “airship.” It was recommended that electric power transmission posts near airdromes should be marked.—A. and N.Z.
