Overseas and Inland Air Mails
Per Press Association. DUNEDIN, Last Night. The importance of tho New Zealand air-mail service was stressed by a deputation from the Chamber of Commerce, Manufacturers’ Association, and Importers' and Shippers’ Association, which waited on the PostmasterGeneral, the Hon. F. Jones. The deputation asked that the overseas air mails, both inward and outward, be carried by tho New Zealand internal air services at no additional charge whenever time could be saved, also that an inland service be provided at the lowest practicable surcharge an ounce. The Minister, replying, said that the Government hoped to make a pronouncement in a, week or so. The question of the amount of surcharge for the inland air mail was an important one and somewhat difficult to arrive at in view of the amount of subsidy that would be rcouired.
