(U.P.A.—By Electric Telegraph— Copyright! ; (Received 31st January, 10.25 a.m.) NEW YORK, 30th January. The resumption of Pan-American Airway’s service to New Zealand was brought closer with the delivery of the first 73 passenger Boeing ’plane, designed for the Trans-Pacific and TransAtlantic services. The machine is making a flight to China this week. Six of these four-motored flying boats, the world’s largest, will be delivered before June when, simultaneously with Imperial Airways, PanAmerican Airways will be inaugurating their trans-Atlantic service. The date is not set for the resumption of the service to Auckland but the company told the Associated Press that it will not be delayed by the service to Europe. "With six Boeings besides the Martins already flying to China we will be able to handle both oceans.”
