Modes...Associate Editor -------------------------------------------- THE TENTH CONVENTION The largest and greatest of all Conventions of the Air Line Pilots Association—the Tenth Convention—has come and gone. It strode magnificently across ALPA's stage of action and then closed the cover of history on six memorable days. Although the Convention itself is history and what it did is a matter of record, the results it left behind can hardly be relegated to such a past-tense realm for they will play a prominent and vital part in the daily lives of the air line pilots and in charting the course of their representing organization for a long time into the future. The success of the Convention is one thing; what made it a success is another. What the convention actually accomplished, its vast achievements, and its far-reaching and forward-moving actions is set down for all time in black and white in the 1,722 pages of record compiled by the tenth biennial meeting of ALPA's highest body. Behind that record are many significant factors that combined to make the Tenth Convention the outstanding success that it was. THE TENTH CONVENTION FACED ISSUES. Frankly controversial though many of the issues were, they faced them squarely. They didn't procrastinate; they didn't shy away; they didn't put off until another day. It wasn't a dodge-the-issue, let-Jack-do-it convention. In everything, they set a deadline of NOW. It was a convention imbued with a sincere eagerness to meet its problems head on and grapple them to a solution. It was a convention of action, aware in the extreme of its great responsibilities and the necessity for resolute action. It was this aggressiveness that helped make the Tenth Convention great. THE TENTH CONVENTION WAS OPEN-MINDED. The raw stuff of which convention success is made—ideas, opinions, expression—flowed freely across the record of the Tenth Convention, unhandicapped by the deadlocking barriers of closed minds. Issues, questions, and problems were resolved on their merits as unfolded in the light of all circumstances, not on predetermined notions dictated by partisanship. It was this open-minded reaching of decisions—the hearing of all sides followed by an evaluation of the pros and cons—that gave the Tenth Convention the freedom of action that enabled it to reach some of its soundest decisions. THE TENTH CONVENTION WAS PRACTICAL. Its actions were logical, sound, reasonable, and well thought out; not hasty bridge-the-gap-temporarily decisions. Words were the Tenth Convention's tools of thought, not a camouflage for lack of thought. In their long-range planning, they were visionary; but it was the vision of practicability, not day dreams. Unlike many such large gatherings of men, they did not indulge in the delusory cloud-walking of high-sounding oratory as a substitute for realism. Their decisions were clean-cut and straight-forward, devoid of ambiguity. It was this realism that enabled the Tenth Convention to give to ALPA a firm basis of continued progress. THE TENTH CONVENTION WAS DEMOCRATIC. It was democratic to the core. Doing that which would result in the most good for the largest number was the spirit that permeated the entire Tenth Convention. Democratic though ALPA has always been, never has the majority rule precept of democracy in action been more evident than at the Tenth Convention. It was this attribute that enabled the Tenth Convention to top and cap its own most democratic action—that of placing copilot and first pilot voting and office holding eligibility on a par—by itself electing a copilot to one of ALPA's major offices for the first time in history. THE TENTH CONVENTION WAS UNIFIED. In whatever it did, in all of its actions, the Tenth Convention showed that ALPA was unified to a degree that it had possibly never been before. Its ranks were solid and unsplit to present the rare sight of many men of many ideas working as one to attain a common goal. It was this unanimity of purpose that gave the Tenth Convention strength. THE TENTH CONVENTION WAS TYPICALLY ALPA. All of the finest traditions of ALPA and the air line piloting profession and all of the things that ALPA stands for were embodied in the Tenth Convention. It was this that enabled the Tenth Convention to do everything to benefit and strengthen the Air Line Pilots Association; nothing to conceivably harm or weaken it. These were the rare and elusive attributes that made the Tenth Convention what it was--the greatest and most successful in ALPA history. All these things an aggressive, take-the-bull-by-the-horns spirit, an open-minded approach to problems, a down-to-earth realism, an inbred sense of democracy, the strength of closed ranks, and the inspiration of high traditions -- were what spelt success for the Tenth Convention. BECAUSE OF THEM,ALPA IS BOUND TO BE GREATER, STRONGER . . . THE FINEST REPRESENTING ORGANIZATION IN THE WORLD FOR A LONG TIME AND WE HOPE FOR ALL-TIME TO COME. ALPA's hat is off to the men who gave it these things. Outstanding were the delegates to the Tenth Convention of ALPA. - David L. Behncke Forward Looking---Forward Moving---ALPA's Greatest ---- Another forward-looking and forward-moving chapter, fraught with all those elusive ingredients of lustrous drama, spontaneous inspiration, and creative sweat that breathe the life of imperishable history into great and memorable moments, was written into the annals of the Air Line Pilots Association in November as the Tenth Annual and Biennial Convention took its place in the record as the largest and greatest in ALPA's history. The convening gavel callings ALPA's largest convention to order fell promptly at 10 a.m. in the Bal Tabarin Room of Chicago's Sherman Hotel on the morning of Tuesday, November 9, 1948, and the sine die adjourning gavel punctuated history with its echo at 4:15 a.m. on Monday, November 15, 1948--a weary five days, 16 hours and 15 minutes later. Against a backdrop of 18 years of ALPA cumulative history--colorful displays flanking the entire convention hall and picturing the progress, accomplishments, and growth of ALPA--the Tenth Convention made indisputable history of its own that was recorded indelibly in the broad clean strokes of concrete accomplishments. 152 Delegates Of all ALPA conventions--from the First Convention in 1932, which was attended by 19 delegates, to the 99-delegate Ninth Convention in 1947--the Tenth Convention, with 152 delegates, was by all odds the largest ever held and it lacked only 16 hours of surpassing the record length held by the Ninth Convention which was in session a total of six days, eight hours and fifteen minutes. By unrelenting and virtually continuous work, which was approximately equally divided between floor and committee sessions, the Tenth Convention acted upon a total of 162 resolutions that touched upon all facets of ALPA activity and topics of interest and prime importance to the air line pilots, an all-time record of ALPA convention achievements. High-Light Accomplishments The minutes of the Tenth Convention are not available at this issue of the AIR LINE PILOT goes to press. However, here are some high-light accomplishments of the Tenth Convention: ● Complete equalization of the position of copilots and first pilots within the Association by amendments to the Constitution and By-Laws to permit copilots to hold office and to give copilots the same full voting power as first pilots. ● Authorization for steps to be taken by Headquarters that may ultimately result in the -------------------------------------------- (Continued on Page 7, Col. 3) -------------------------------------------- WITH EMPHASIS [[image]] Words were the tools of the Tenth Convention and debate the furnace in which its accomplishments were forged. By the Convention's adjournment, many a delegate had shown himself a past master of logomachy and the words sometimes flew fast and furiously--loquaciously enough to compile the biggest record of any ALPA Convention, 1,722 pages of it. Here thunder-voiced A. J. O'Donnell, Pan American Airways, who proved to be one of the Convention's star orators, waxes eloquently to get in one of his many contributions to the record. -------------------------------------------- In Constant Memoriam "TO FLY WEST, MY FRIEND, IS A FLIGHT WE ALL MUST TAKE FOR A FINAL CHECK" Active Duty Air Force Allen, K.N. - AA Beadles, E.C. - UAL Berger, H.A. - UAL Bowen, W.S. - EAL Campbell, M.H. - TWA Caton, C.E. - EAL Charleston, H.T. - AA Darby, J.E. - C&S Davis, W.E. - Continental Diltz, H.C. - TWA Doxey, W.S. - PAA Duke, A.B. - EAL Eyre, Lloyd - UAL Folkers, H.J. - Braniff Gray, W.B. - EAL Greenlee, R.L. - UAL Herndon, Thomas - UAL Jackson, Walter - TWA McDowell, H.C. - UAL Mitchell, H.F. - Colonial Mostoller, Charles - EAL Nagel, John - MCA Nelson, F.S. - WAL Peterson, Warren - TWA Roth, P.F. - EAL Shafer, G.H. - TWA Skelly, H.J. - AA Trewek, J.M. - AA Naval Reserve Active Duty Jones, J.P. - EAL Knudsen, Max - TWA Nelson, R.G. - NEA Roscoe, T.M. - TWA Sparboe, J.H. - NWA Williams, R.W. - EAL Active Duty Marine Corps Kimball, W.F. - TWA Active - Accidental Adams, J.B. - UAL Amthor, W.E. - TWA Anderson, Lloyd - UAL Andert, P.A. - UAL Antonio, S.B. - PCA Bamberger, T.L. - TWA Banegas, Antonio - TACA Barrett, J.C., Jr. - PAA Barron, J.M., Jr. - AA Bates, C.F. - NWA Bethel, A.T. - TWA Beindorf, C.R. - UAL Bickford, L.A. - Panagra Bigelow, Edward - UAL Bliven, L.H. - NWA Blom, E.W. - UAL Bogen, W.L. - WAE Boghret, F.L. - TWA Bolton, H.F. - TWA Bontrager, C.M. - UAL Borchers, Adrian - PAA Bowen, J.E. - TWA Bowen, L.L. - Braniff Brandon, J.L. - UAL Brand, W.J. - AA Brenner, D.F. - NWA Briggs, F.W. - AA Briggs, W.P. - UAL Brigman, R.M. - AA Broghton, D.E. - UAL Brown, D.W. - UAL Brown, F.L. - UAL Brown, H.B. - NEA Brown, W.C. - PAA Brunk, P.S. - PAA Bryan, T.E. - AAA Bucher, C.L. - PAA Bucklin, Fred - PCA Bullis, R.L. - PAA Burks, J.A. - UAL Burton, R.L. - Inland Caneta, J.J. - EAL Carpenter, B.A. - AA Carson, S.A. - PCA Chamberlain, C.B. - NWA Christian, B.W. - NWA Christian, F.J.

November, 1948 THE AIR LINE PILOT Three -------------------------------------------- Without Fanfare, Convention Committees Do the Spadework [[image]] 1 [[image]] 2 [[image]] 3 [[image]] 4 [[image]] 5 In the privacy of little rooms--the committee rooms--far removed from the pageantry, pomp and ever-moving panorama of action of the Convention floor, the real personality of a Convention takes shape; and there, too, lies the real key to its success or failure. That the Tenth Convention committees did their job well, there is no greater testimonial than the success of the Convention itself. It is in the committees that basic ideas are born, the solutions to many problems ferreted out, and the raw material turned into a completed product for presentation on the Convention floor to be acted upon by the delegates. All the delegates of the Tenth Convention served upon one of the ten committees which processed a record of 162 resolutions, the greatest number ever acted upon by an ALPA Convention. Listed according to committees, the number of which corresponds to the numbered pictures, they are: (1) COMMITTEE ON FINANCE, DUES AND PENSION: Standing (l. to r.): R. F. Eckert, PAA; E. J.
