SUVA, This Day
The airmen, Sir Charles Kingsford Smith and Captain Taylor, returned to Suva by boat this morning. They state that they will return to Naselai on Sunday and depart at dawn on Monday, when they will avoid the cross wind and get a full day's flying, and thus lighten tho big load of benzine before night. They will also sight Phoenix Island by daylight as an aid to navigation. Adverse weather reports from Pago Pago also contributed to the decision to delay the departure.
