BARUCH PLAN, 1946. Proposed by Bernard M. Baruch, U.S. representative on the U.N. Atomic Energy Commission, the program included international control of all atomic detonations and licensing of all other atomic activities. An international inspection team would check for violations, and its findings would be veto-proof in the Security Council.

...airline industry has already reached a peak-86 billion annual passenger miles-that was not anticipated until at least 1971. The result is that the Federal Aviation Administration is giving serious thought to closing down smaller airport control towers, shifting traffic controllers, and even limiting the flood of new aircraft deliveries until the Federal Government and the industry together can make some sense out of overcrowded skies and overburdened airport facilities...
