The first volume of the Harvard City Planning Studies, a year's investigation of airport problems in the United States, has just been published by the Harvard University Press, it was announced at the School of City Planning Saturday. It is entitled "Airports: Their Location, Administration, and Legal Basis," by H. V. Hubbard '97, Miller McClintoek '22, and F. B. Williams '88, assisted by Paul Mahoney and H. K. Menhinick.

This first publication by the School raises and attempts to furnish material to answer a large number of questions of location, management, fiscal policy, and legal control of an airport. The book consists of three reports: the airport in the city plan, airport administration, and the law of airports. It is based on a widespread and detailed study of airport practice, and offers much data derived from a field study which included visits to 85 of the principal airports of the United States.

The first part of the report, devoted to the relation of the airport to the city plan, is by Professor Hubbard
