                       I have the encloed letter from Hillory A. Tolson,
Aeting 
             Direcotr of the National Park Seric, relating t. ou     prble.s

 
                  Though the wordng of the regulation is nt ver     elear
to me, 
             I unerstand that this means that the Civil Aeronautics Authority

             rules that all agencies having jurisdiction ove   federall 
owe 
             lands ca  regulate flying ove  sand leading on suh lands.  
 I think, 
             it woul be well to look up the regulatio   a little futher ad
make 
             sur  that this is what it really mens     The language quted
doess 
             not quite cry that contatio      to me. 
 
                  If, however, this is orret there reins the poblem of 
             wildrnss areas     der State control uh, fr    mple, as the

             Qtie.4Qerio      area,   Peraps the Committ eeculd do     othig

             inathe wa  of weeomadiag that suah authority be extended to
the 
             State govermets as well as to Federal ageasies.
