IR NAIL ROUTES 70 LINK US. AND SOUTH AMERICA for Services Opened by Post Office De- partment TO ASSIST TRADE ill Bring United States Days Nearer to Its Markets Washington, July 4.--Historie nd romantic trade routes between he United States and Central and South America are soon to be link- ed by air mail Bids for service between Key West, Florida, and Porto Rico and Key West and the Canal Zone were ppened at the Post Office Depart ment Monday. Both routes will furnish connec- tions for prospective service to South America and each will bring his country and its Atlantic in- THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, THURSDAY, JULY 3, 1928 --- sular and territorial possessions closer. Where once brigs and and cutters plied their coastal trade over water known to Columbus, Ponce de Leon, and Balboa, air- plane engines will roar. The Unit- ed States will be brought days nearer to its markets to the south. The Canal Zone route is 1,640 miles in length apd connects Ha- vana, Mexico, British Honduras, the Republic of Honduras, Nicara- gua, Costa Rica, and Panama with the United States by air, The Porto Rican route of 1,260 miles will connect this country with Cuba, Haiti, Santo Domingo and Porto Rico. On the Canal Zone route, the postmaster general may include Guatemala and Salvador and ex- tend the service southward to Co- lombia, Venezuela, British Guiana, Dutch Guiana and the Dutch West Indies. May Be Extended The Porto Rica route may be extended to the Leeward and Wind- ward Islands and to Trinidad. This action by the Post Office Department marks the most pre- tentious effort on the part of the postal service to encourage come mercial aviation in the Western Hemisphere and bring about a clos- er and more friendly contact wita republics to the south.

Both bids were for $2 a mile, the maximum permitted by law. J. T. Trippe, president of the Pan-American, said.if his company was granted the contracts it would be ready to operate within a few months. According to Trippe his company recently completed wr rangements with the Clban Gov ernment for transportation of dom- estic mall between Havana, Santa Clara, Camaguey and Santiago, in Cuba. The company already is consid. ering extension of its service down the west coast of South America, Trippe said, to carry passengers and air-freight. "We are negotiating with the Peruvian and Ecuador Govern. ments for landing fields and per- mission to operate," he said. "Mail by air down the west coast would effect a saving of more than a week." A new type of amphibian plane for use in the Central and South American service was brought here by Pan-American officials. It fs capable of carrying 10 passengers and a ton and a half of freight. Fully loaded, the huge plane weighs four tons. PROFESSOR FINDS J MAYAN CITIES Relics of Peculiar ' Civilizak tion Unearthed in Brit. ish Honduras New Orleans, La, July 5.--Discov- ery of three ancient Mayan cities in British Honduras with relics of a "distinct and peculiar civilization" was announced Monday by John Eridick Mueseum of Chicago, who arrived here from Belize. The discovery was made after five months of excavation which the lone archaeologist carried on with the aid of native Indians only. Next January Mr, Thompson will return to contin» ue the work he estimates will re- quire three years. Some of the relics obtained in the excavations were exhibited here, but Mr. Thompson said he surrendered many to the native government as part of an agreement under which he was permitted to explore, The three cities, he said, are on the west coast near the border of Guatemala, EXCURSION BOAT IN DANGER AS PEOPLE CROWD ONE SIDE Philadelphia, July 4--The City of Camden, an excursion boat of the Wilson Line, with a holiday crowd aboard, was reported temporarily difabled this afternoon after passen- gers rushed to one side as the boat left National Park, on the Jersey side of the Delaware River. Before relieving boats arrived the City of Camden had righted itself and pro- ceeded to Wilmington. No casualties were reported, rom (SIS Mt DAL WEST INDIES WANT BRITISH MAGAZINES Seek Special Postal Rate to Offset Flood of Ameri. can Publications London, July 5.--At the instance of the West Indies Parliamentary Com- mittee, of which Lord Burnham is chairman, the Postmaster-General has been considering the extension to the British West Indies, British Guiana, and British Honduras of the special magazine postal rate now applied to Canada only, The Committee urges this exten- sion of countering the flood of Am- erican newspapers and catalogues. The Postmaster-General, however, replies that he cannot afford the ex- tension at present. Combating Am- erican literary permeation is a cost- ly business. The Canadian. magazines post has resulted in afi annual loss of $950,000 to the British taxpayer, Nearly 7,000,000 pounds of British magazines are sent to Canada an- nually. PARTIES CONSIDER ELECTION CHANGES Labor and Liberals Both Confident of Success in Great Britain London, July S.--Ramsay MacDon- ald and Lloyd George returned to the House of Commons after the week end to be congratulated by their re- spective supporters upon their pre- dictions to large country audiences on Saturday of certain victory at the mext election. Both cannot be right, for a Lib- eral-Labor Coalition is the last thing that either party contemplates. Observers who stand outside the parties fail to see, in the recent by- elections, any evid of a decisive swing over either to Liberalism or Labor, but they do note in the by- elections a further proof of Labor solidity, despite the Maxton-Cook re- volt against the MacDonald-Thomas- Snowden leadership. Much significance is attached to the emphatic rejection by the Trade Union Congress of Maxton's plea for no more industrial peace talk with capitalists, oth Conservatives and Liberals, in. view of the momentous coming contest, are much disturbed by the reflection that in the Carmarthen by- election a Socialist was sent to Par- liament, although the anti-Sccialist majority, made up of Conservatives and Liberals, totalled 18,562 as against Labor's 10,154, If the Liber- als carry through their intention of using Lloyd George's titles fund to put 500 candidates into the field, these three-cornered contests may bring strange results, especially with the much enlarged electorate. Yet remedies suggested, like the second ballot and alternative vote arouse no enthusiasm, Baldwin Carries On These electoral flurries do not in- terrupt Premier Baldwin's composure, or his Ministry's progress with the bold policy of easing the burdens of local rates on productive, as distinct from distributive, industry, Using the bait of $120,000,000, mostly derived from the new tax on imported petrol, the Government fis in effect remaking England, The Poor Law Guardians, with their hun- dred years of traditions, disappear in every parish and so, in effect, do 600 Rural District Councils in every part of England and Wales, while, in London, the changes involve the abolition of the Metropolitan Asy- lums Board, County Councils and County Borough Councils, with their large areas, supplant the suppressed smaller bodies. , Signs abound of the big fight the threatened bodies will make when the new plan comes up for the legislative approval in November. Certainly Baldwin's ministry does not lack courage in throwing down these challenges to the vested interests and deep seated local traditions on the eve of a general election. It counts especially on the broad national de- sire to see the basic industries re- established and a million unemployed taken off the doles and poor law re- lief and put on the weekly payroll of productive industry. i FREE TUBES WITH EVERY TIRE AS MENTIONED HERE will be allowed.
