ENGLAND-AUSTRALIA AIR MAIL
[to the editob.] Sir, — Great interest has been aroused in Great Britain by the announcement recently made that Imperial Airways is to operate two experimental air mail services from England to Australia and return, and I have no doubt that equal interest will have been aroused in the area in which your paper is circulated. I am therefore sending you this letter by the first England-Australia Air Mail Service, firstly in the hope that the souvenir of this experiment may be of interest and secondly to ask your support in making known to your public the dates on which the return service to England will run. The dates on which mails will be despatched from your territory will be announced by your local Postal Administration. Lastly, I would venture to solicit your active co-operation in pressing for the establishment of a permanent service. The value of such a service, linking up- in high speed communications so many important units of the Empire, has been voiced so often and so forcefully by the Press that I have no need to make any comment on it here. Yours faithfully, (Signature Indecipherable), Managing Director. London* 5.W.1., April 4.
