Seyer Dissertation.Pdf Regulating a Global Technology within the American Federalist System: The Ideological Origins of the 1926 Air Commerce Act by Sean H. Seyer A dissertation submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Auburn University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Auburn, Alabama May 4, 2014 Keywords: aviation, federalism, International Convention Relating to the Regulation of Aerial Navigation, mental models, Canada, Air Commerce Act Copyright 2014 by Sean H. Seyer Approved by William F. Trimble, Chair, Professor of History Morris L. Bian, Associate Professor of History David C. Carter, Associate Professor of History James R. Hansen, Professor of History Abstract The 1926 Air Commerce Act represented the institutionalization of a specific mental model for aviation regulation within the United States. This dissertation focuses on how individuals and groups responded to three distinct influences—(1) the Constitution’s state/federal separation of powers; (2) the 1919 Convention Relating to the Regulation of Aerial Navigation; and (3) practical aerial experience along the U.S.– Canadian border—to develop a regulatory system that corresponded to America’s particular socio-political traditions. I argue that the development of aviation regulation in the United States, a process previously presented as a solely domestic narrative, can only be fully understood when approached from a global perspective. As a device capable of three-dimensional movement, the airplane possessed the innate ability to undermine state sovereignty. Though pioneering regulatory advocates in the United States believed the airplane’s speed and freedom of movement necessitated federal legislation, states and municipalities turned to their constitutionally-sanctioned police powers to regulate the airplane as early as 1908. The airplane’s use in World War I accentuated the need to constrain this potentially radical technology, but constitutional questions remained. Although the 1919 convention’s ties to the League of Nations precluded official American membership, the regulatory uniformity necessary for international flight resulted in American acceptance of the convention’s principles and norms. I present the idea of “techno-regulatory peer pressure”—the modification of a government’s regulations to correspond to those of another to facilitate the cross-border use of technology—as a means of placing the Air Commerce Act within its appropriate international context. ii Acknowledgments Many individuals helped to shepherd this dissertation throughout its journey from embryotic idea to finished product. The members of my committee, Dr. William Trimble, Dr. Morris Bian, Dr. David Carter, and Dr. James Hansen have all provided strong and continuous intellectual and professional support throughout my graduate career. Dr. David Lucsko graciously offered comments on the early chapters, and both he and Dr. Alan Meyer were always willing to listen to my thoughts and offer constructive feedback. From the first day of my very first seminar, my time at Auburn University’s History Department has been a wonderful and engaging experience. I am truly grateful for the opportunity to grow intellectually and professionally amongst such a group of supportive scholars. Archivists are a historian’s best friend and in many ways the unsung heroes of our craft. I would like to thank David A. Langbert of the National Archives for his assistance in navigating the State Department’s voluminous records. The assistance offered by Richard McCulley and William Davis at the Center for Legislative Archives went beyond all expectations, and I am most appreciative to Bill for helping me sort through various drafts of multiple aviation bills. Through their intimate knowledge of the collection, Matthew Schaefer and Spencer Howard at the Herbert Hoover Presidential Library provided invaluable assistance. Archivists at the Library of Congress, the Smithsonian Institution Archives, and the Library and Archives Canada continuously offered their time and energy to track down documents, and always with a smile. They all deserve a pay raise. iii I came to Alabama knowing not a single soul, and I end my graduate career at Auburn University with a host of life-long friends. I wish to thank Leslie Whatley, Guy Shields, Wade Meadows, and others for always being there and keeping me centered. I am grateful to fellow graduate students Hector and Hesper Montford, Zack Wakefield, Charles Wexler, and others who forced me to socialize. Chris Eklund and Amy Wallhermfechtel were always available to both commensurate with the trials and share the joys of the dissertation process. A special thank you goes to Kristan Christoff, who kept me sane during an intense writing process. To all those who shared their experience, strength, and hope with me throughout the years, thank you. My family has been a source of strength and inspiration. I wish to thank Dennis and Ellen Seyer for fostering an inquisitive mind and always supporting me in all my endeavors. Finally, I want to thank my grandfather, Herbert W. Gruber. By sharing his World War II experiences, he instilled within me an appreciation for history. iv Contents Abstract ......................................................................................................................................... ii Acknowledgments........................................................................................................................ iii Introduction ................................................................................................................................... 1 Chapter 1: The Historical Debate over the Federal Regulation of Transportation ..................... 18 Chapter 2: The Prewar Dialogue and Pioneering Regulations ................................................... 68 Chapter 3: Crafting the Postwar International Civil Aviation Regime ....................................... 90 Chapter 4: The Wilson Administration’s Response to the 1919 Convention ........................... 140 Chapter 5: Delineating the Contours of Federal Regulation ..................................................... 179 Chapter 6: Continuity and Change during the Harding Administration ................................... 204 Chapter 7: Breaking Down the Barriers to Legislative Action ................................................. 256 Chapter 8: Achieving Critical Mass .......................................................................................... 303 Conclusion ................................................................................................................................ 360 Bibliography ............................................................................................................................. 364 v Introduction This dissertation analyzes the domestic and international influences that contributed to the first federal regulation of civil aviation in the United States. President Calvin Coolidge’s May 20, 1926, signature of the Air Commerce Act marked a significant milestone in American aviation history for several reasons: it represented the next step in a dialogue concerning the place of new technologies within America’s constitutional framework that stretched back to the nation’s founding; it began a nearly century-long regulatory relationship between aviation and the federal government; and it delineated the contours of the aerial relationship between the United States and its fellow nations. The 1926 Air Commerce Act represented the institutionalization of a shared mental model that attempted to reconcile the Constitution’s federalist system with the 1919 Convention Relating to the Regulation of Aerial Navigation in light of practical experience along the U.S.-Canadian border. Rather than viewing this foundational document as an imperfect precursor of later legislation such as the 1938 Civil Aeronautics Act, the Federal Aviation Act of 1958, and the Department of Transportation Act of 1966, this study approaches the Air Commerce Act as the culmination of various ideas and influences to provide a better understanding of the forces that shape how governments approach new technologies. The airplane represents a radical technology, which can be defined as any device that undermines traditional notions of security, social norms, and jurisprudence. By allowing movement in three dimensions, the airplane called into question a nation’s ability to secure its borders. As such, it challenged a central element within the concept of sovereignty, the ideological foundation for international relations since the 1648 Peace of 1 Westphalia ended the Thirty Years War. The dual-use nature of aircraft, with their ready conversion from civilian to military use, further affected the established balance of international security. While a member of James Ramsay MacDonald’s coalition government in 1932, prior and future British Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin combined the inability of a sovereign government to prevent aerial intrusions with the airplane’s potential for death and destruction when he famously declared “the bomber will always get through.”1 As the historian Joseph Corn shows, American aviation enthusiasts projected the airplane’s freedom of movement onto society, prophesying profound social changes arising from the miracle of flight. Even after the horror of World War I, this “winged gospel” continued to present the airplane as both a socially constructive and destabilizing force, “an instrument

Biographical Sketch: Maurice Arthur Pope was born 29 August 1889 at his parents’ summer home at St. Patrick, Temiscquata County, Quebec. He was the third son of Joseph Pope (who, at the time, was the private secretary of Sir John A. Macdonald) and of Henriette, the eldest daughter of Sir Henri Thomas Taschereau. Maurice received his early education in Ottawa at both the Model school and the Ottawa Collegiate Institute. Keen on sports, he ran with the Ottawa Harriers while attending high school. During the summer of 1905 he worked in a hydrographic party, which was engaged in surveying the route for the prepared Georgian Bay ship canal. During the summers of 1906 and 1907 he was employed in the construction of docks on the Louis embankment in Quebec City. He entered McGill University in the fall of 1906 to begin his studies in civil engineering and was an enthusiastic member of a fraternity. After a difficult second year at McGill, he decided to take a year off, during which he worked at Frankford on the construction of the Trent valley canal. He returned to McGill in the fall of 1909, worked for a contractor on a building extension in Montreal in the summer of 1910, and graduated from McGill in 1911. He then joined the Engineering department of the Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR) in Montreal.

    An Intimate World: Race, Migration, and Chinese and Irish Domestic Servants in the United States, 1850-1920 A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Andrew Theodore Urban IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Advised by Donna Gabaccia and Erika Lee June 2009 © Andrew Urban, 2009 Acknowledgements While I rarely discussed the specifics of my dissertation with my fellow graduate students and friends at the University of Minnesota – I talked about basically everything else with them. No question or topic was too large or small for conversations that often carried on into the wee hours of the morning. Caley Horan, Eric Richtmyer, Tim Smit, and Aaron Windel will undoubtedly be lifelong friends, mahjong and euchre partners, fantasy football opponents, kindred spirits at the CC Club and Mortimer’s, and so on. I am especially grateful for the hospitality that Eric and Tim (and Tank the cat) offered during the fall of 2008, as I moved back and forth between Syracuse and Minneapolis. Aaron and I had the fortune of living in New York City at the same time in our graduate careers, and I have fond memories of our walks around Stuyvesant Park in the East Village and Prospect Park in Brooklyn, and our time spent with the folks of Tuesday night. Although we did not solve all of the world’s problems, we certainly tried. Living in Brooklyn, I also had the opportunity to participate in the short-lived yet productive “Brooklyn Scholars of Domestic Service” (AKA the BSDS crew) reading group with Vanessa May and Lara Vapnek.

When I arrived in graduate school, I did not know what it meant to be a historian and a writer. Working with him, especially in the development of this manuscript, I have come to understand my strengths and weaknesses, and he has made me a better historian. Thank you. The members of my dissertation committee have each aided me in different ways. Michael Stoff’s introductory historiography seminar helped me realize exactly what I had gotten myself into my first year of graduate school—and made it painless. I always enjoyed Mark Lawrence’s classes and his teaching style, and he was extraordinarily supportive during the writing of my master’s thesis, as well as my qualifying exams. I workshopped the first two chapters of my dissertation in Bill Brands’s writing seminar, where I learned precisely what to do and not to do.

    THE POLICY OF NEGLECT: THE CANADIAN MILITIA IN THE INTERWAR YEARS, 1919-39 ___________________________________________________________ A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board ___________________________________________________________ in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY __________________________________________________________ by Britton Wade MacDonald January, 2009 iii © Copyright 2008 by Britton W. MacDonald iv ABSTRACT The Policy of Neglect: The Canadian Militia in the Interwar Years, 1919-1939 Britton W. MacDonald Doctor of Philosophy Temple University, 2008 Dr. Gregory J. W. Urwin The Canadian Militia, since its beginning, has been underfunded and under-supported by the government, no matter which political party was in power. This trend continued throughout the interwar years of 1919 to 1939. During these years, the Militia’s members had to improvise a great deal of the time in their efforts to attain military effectiveness. This included much of their training, which they often funded with their own pay. They created their own training apparatuses, such as mock tanks, so that their preparations had a hint of realism. Officers designed interesting and unique exercises to challenge their personnel. All these actions helped create esprit de corps in the Militia, particularly the half composed of citizen soldiers, the Non- Permanent Active Militia. The regulars, the Permanent Active Militia (or Permanent Force), also relied on their own efforts to improve themselves as soldiers. They found intellectual nourishment in an excellent service journal, the Canadian Defence Quarterly, and British schools. The Militia learned to endure in these years because of all the trials its members faced. The interwar years are important for their impact on how the Canadian Army (as it was known after 1940) would fight the Second World War.

    Postal Regulatory Commission Submitted 5/29/2008 11:46:31 Filing ID: 60012 Accepted 5/21/2008 May 21, 2008 Good afternoon. I appreciate the invitation to be with you all, here in Flagstaff today, and to offer what I hope may be food for thought – and more – regarding the present re-consideration of the notions of Universal Service, the Universal Service Obligation , and the Postal Monopoly, and to join in on the discussion of these important topics. I am here as the owner and publisher of The Flute Network. We are a small entirely volunteer entity now closing in on the end of our 24 th year of service as a “bulletin board service” for flutists, flute teachers, and the people who love these kinds of folks. In addition to a website presence (which has become absolutely requisite in recent years for businesses of all kinds), we continue to organize and publish an adletter of typically 8 – 12 pages, which goes out free of charge 9 times a year, now to some 6,100 different subscribers nationwide. It is on behalf of our subscribers, and all those whom we serve by including their notices, that we’ve been tracking the flow of Flute Network mailings over the years. As with most such things, the timely receipt of our mailings is a large part of what keeps them valuable – for example, it does no good to learn of a concert or other event that one might have wanted to attend, two weeks after it happened. What is frustrating is when this kind of thing happens and those notices had actually been mailed three weeks before those events, and by the Post Office’s own standards should have been received by all in plenty of time.
