CLAIMS AGAIN HEARD
TRUNK AIR SERVICES BOARD PROCEEDINGS (Per Press Association.) WELLINGTON., last night, ' Lengthy negotiations for the purpose if combining companies competing for a trunk air" service apparently having proved abortive, their claims were again presented to the Transport Co-ordination lioar'd this afternoon. . For Great Pacific Airways, Mr, G. P. Eradlay said his company proposed to serve a greater area than did the Union Company, and would cover it more comprehensively. The proposals were based on the report of Sir Charles Kingsford Smith and the late Mr. Ulm, and aimed .at the development of a service from Auckland to Duncdin, together with feeder services. Air. C. CL White, for the Union Company, said hisi company was honest enough to say it would not call at Wellington till 'the facilities were better. It would be easy for applicants to say after a license was granted that they would not call there.
.Mr. 11. J. Knight, of New Zealand Airways, said that at first their service, which was concentrating on freight, would run from Palmerston North to Dunedin, but the aim would be to connect with Auckland and New Plymouth at the earliest possible date. The board will sit again to-morrow.
