The utmost possible support would be given the project by the Govern: ment, according to the committee's recommendations, such as the grant. ing of mall contracts, the carriage of Government goods, and the transpor- tation of migrants. teens Biggest Airplanes Owned by Britain Latest All-Metal Air Battles ship Weighs 13 Tons London.~~Great Britain now leads' the world in gigantic airplanes, for it has been ; disclosed that "her latest" all-metal air battleship, welghing 13 tons and eqivpped with Rolls-Royce engines has just completed a cruise | of 6,600 miles over the North and Bal: tic Seas. } a > In addition, there soon will he other even more fo : airplanes in-. tended for war purposes which are at present undergoing secret tests.
