PLANES
The Citizens Aviation Association, a group of home owners
near Love Field in Dallas, received a shot in the arm today
from a decesion by the U04. Aupreme Court. The Associatin
which is fighting a proposed let runway to be built at the
Dallas airport, claims the deoesion has a definite bearing
on the associations law suit, which seeks to prohibit the
runway. Today la supreme court decision said a home owner,
lived
who o near the Greater Pittsburgh Airport, is entitled
to compensation. The home owner said he was forced to
sell his house, because low.flying planes shook plaster
from the ceilings and walls, and made conversation
impossible. He was awarded more than 12 thousand dollars,
to be paid by Allegheny County, operator of the airport.
The supreme court vote was seven to two. The two
dissenting opinions, m3 by justices Black and Frazikfurter,
contended the federal government should pay the copone
nation. A 'Friend of the coit' brief filed by another
airport warned an unprecedented wave of law suits would
follow a decision by the court to award compensation.
