CAA Requests
Improvements
For Airports
WASHINGTON, May 11—(AP)
—The Civil Aeronautics Authori
iy has requested improvements or
construction of over 5,000 airprots
in the United States, including 99
in Georgia, 5
The list of airports is required
annually under the Federal Air
port Act of 1946 and is based on
the CAA's estimate of demands
for air service in the next three
vears, The listing does not neces
sarrily mean, the CAA says that
an airport will be built or improv
ed at each place, but the locations
chosen for actual work will be on
a basis of greatest need and the
amount of money appropriated for
the work by Congress.
The construction list for the fis
cal year beginning July 1, 1950,
will not be announced, therefore,
until after Congress acts on the
general appropriation bill now un
der consideration. ;
The Georgia projects on the list
would cost an estimated sls 474,~
000. The CAA -provided no break
dowh of estimated costs of air
ports. : 4 .
For statistical purposes airports
are divided into numerical classes
based on the longest landing strip.
These classes are:
Sub I—lless than 1,800 feet; 1—
1,800-2,700 feet (lengths are de
creased 200 feet if paved); 2—
2700-3700 feet; 3-—3700-4700 feet;
4—4500-5500 feet (class 4 and
up must have at least one paved
runway of the length required for
the c%ss); 5—5500-6500 feet! 6—
6500-7500 feet; 7—7500-8500; 8—
8500-9500; 9—9500 and over.
The Athens Municipal Airport
at present is rated in class No. 3,
but could be boosted to a possible
No. t& rating, pending improve

Republicans who pressed

instructor, but as a friend, father
and son. His first thoughts were
always- of his family, his wife
Edith, his small son, James Milton
11, and his mother. He had been
ill for some time, and his death
was not unexpected. He is sur
vived by his wife; son, James Mil
ton II; two brothers, Henry M.
and A. D. Beusse, and his mother
Mrs. Carlton Beusse.
Funeral arrangements have not
been completed and will be an
nounced later by Bridges Funeral
Home,
Mr. Beusse attended local
schools, graduating from Athens
High School in 1934. During his
high school days he was outstand
ing as an athlete and was awarded
a scholarship to University of Mi
ami, where he was a star football
player.
He was one of the oldest mem
bers of Frank Hardeman Chapter
Order of DeMolay here and had a
legion of friends in Athens.

TRUMAN DEDICATES
HUGE POWER PLANT
President Determined To Develop
Low-Cost Power On Major Rivers
-, By The Associated Press |
President Truman traveled to Grand Coulee Dam in

. He.fold his {ranside greeters
‘that he will be back this fall for
somé real politicking, in behalf of
Democrats running for Congress.
In a formal speech at Pendle
ton Ore., last night he predicted
that the income of Americans now
in the lower brackets can be dou
bled in “real money” by 1960.
At Boise, Idaho, he said that
power developments in the north
west, northeast and southwest,
linked with the Tenneseee, Ohio,
Mississippi and Missouri Valley
projects “will keep us the most
powerful nation on earth.”
~ “Back in Washington, D. C., Sen
ator Cain (R-Wash) suggested
that Mr. Truman was wasting
' $250,000 of the taxpayers money
by making his western tour, and
that no dedication was needed at
Grand Coulee, anyhow.
That dam has been dedicated so
many times, Cain said, “that it
ought to be knawn as the “Triple
D Dam"—short for “Democrats
Dedication Dam.”
Cain related that each of the
dam’s 13 generators has been ded
icated by Democrats who “were
either running for public office
or advancing the cause of some
other Democrat.”
Rid Charge
The aiding-Communism _charge
was contained in a statement
signed by 11 Republicans in the
U. S. House of representatives,
They said the Truman administra

Japan and Communist China with
thte result that China is exporting
food her own hungry people need.
The Republicans called this
helping Communists “while stab
