18Th Annual Meeting

For several years, I have had the pleasure of attending the annual meetings of the New Jersey Mosquito Extermination Association. These meetings are held at Atlantic City, usually about the middle of February. This year the 18th annual meeting was held on February 18, 19 and 20. One would think from the name of the organization that problems discussed at these annual meetings are concerned with mosquito control within the state of New Jersey.

State Board

On September 15, 1930, the State Board of Commerce and Navigation of New Jersey made a ruling that aircraft would not be permitted to land on any New Jersey waters above tidewater within the jurisdiction of the state. The application had been made for permission to operate a five passenger flying boat between Nolan's Point, Lake Hopatcong, a vacation resort, and New York City, and to set off a portion of the lake to make a landing place for the hydroairplane. It was stated that other inland waters in New Jersey were being used for a similar purpose, and the ground of the refusal was that aircraft flying from water constituted a menace to surface navigation. This ruling created considerable newspaper comment and aroused vigorous protest from persons interested in aviation, and by order of October 20, 1930, the ruling was limited to Lake Hopatcong.
