Canadian Aerial Mail to Cross Country in 36 Hours New Air Lines Form Basis of ! Transcontinental Service Which Will Reduce By Two Days Coast-to-Coast Delivering Time Ottawa, April 3--The nucleus of a transcontinental aerial mail service is being established by Canada with the awarding of contracts for four im- portant mail services. Eventually letters will cross the country from Halifax to Vancouver in 36 hours by acroplane, instead of in five days by railway as at present. The contracts now entered into rovide for a service between Father oint and Montreal of four trips er week, bi-weekly service between ontreal and Ottawa, another ser- vice of four trips per week between Montreal and Toronto, and all-year- sound service between Montreal and Albany, N.Y. to connest with the United States Transcontinental Air Service. The total cost will be §201,- ] Charge Per Mile The Father Point to Montreal ser- vice and the Montreal to Ottawa ser- vice will be provided by the Canadian Transcontinental Airways, Limited, of Quebege, the Father Point to Mon- treal section costing $49,500, or $1.25 per flying mile. The Montreal to Ottawa service is to cost $8250 for the season. For the Montreal-Tor- onto service the cost will be $49,000, or $1.25 per {lying mile, and the Montreal to Albany service will cost $95,900. ; According to J. A. Wilson, Direc- tor of Civil Aviation in Canada, 60 per cent. of the Royal Air Force pilots during the war were Cana- dians. Since the war Canada has heen .devoting her activities to such operations as forest protection, sur- veying mapping, and the assisting of engineering and geological survey work in the Northern region. It would take some time to build up a transcontinental air mail service, ow- ing to the sparse population of the Dominion, but eventually the people would demand more rapid service than could be given by the present method. It was learned yesterday that the Canadian Transcontinental Airways, Limited, had made arrangements to use the Leaside Aerodrome of the Toronto Flying Club. Controller Wemp had acted on behalf of the Toronto Flying Club in these ar- rangements. It is thought locally that operations will start from To- ronto on May 1.

SHOWS AVERSION T0 FREE PRESS Spanish Dictator Says News- papers Must Be Con- trolled Madrid, April 4.--His aversion to a free press was pointedly il- lustrated by Gen. Primo de Rivera the Spanish premier dictator, in a signed article in La Nacion. Resorting to this rather un- usual procedure of using the gov- ernment newspaper to expound his theories on what the press should print and what not, the General after praising the newspapers in general goes on to say that while his activities might be considered prejudicial to civilization and so- ciety, he blames the polticians of the old regime of having usurped whatever good was in the Spanish newspapers by using them for their own purposes. "The press," the premier says in the article, "in my opinion must always be watched and controlled by the government, however, gly- ing it some independence. "A hewspaper must not arouse political passions and exert politi- cal influence, but rather inculcate culture and good citizenship. "I believe a law should be enact- ed to keep the press within these confines and that is what we (the government) intend to do. "Thus by law we believe the newspaper ceases to he an organ of political influence." General Primo de Rivera asks "who would permit daily entry in- to his home of an agitator or pre- dicator who would cause his chil- dren uneasiness and bad dreams and destroy the little prestige nec- essary (indispensable) for order PAMPHLET ON MOND DRAWS LABOR'S IRE ON 'EMPEROR' COOK Trades Union Council De- plores the Use of Personalities "MOND'S MOONSHINE" Breach of the Nottingham Agreement is Roundly Repudiated London, March 31.--A. J. Cook has stirred up a hornest's nest by the pamphlet which he issued entitled "Mond's Moonshine" criticizing the frace meetings between the Trades Jnion Congress and the Mond group oo employers.. The General Council of the Trades Union Council issues a statement "The General Council emphatically declare that the pamhhlet is full of inaccuracies and misrepresentations and deliberate falsehoods and was obviously written with the purpose of damaging and discrediting the pres- tige and authority of the General Council, Labor To Act The General Council decided to bring the matter to the notice of the Miner sFederation of Great Britain as Cook's action was a violation of the understanding arrived at in Not- tingham on March 2 that personal recriminations both by members and officials of the Miners Federation and the General Council should cease at once. The Council have requested the Federation to state clearly whether they support Cook's action" The statement is prefaced by the declaration of the General Council's "strongest condemnation" of Cook's action, Cook appacently seeks to evade the issue claiming the pamph- let was written previous to the Not- tingham agreement, and that he tried to get the publisher to hold it up, but the publisher said it was too late.

SC J J he 6 Je Ja J ee 2 Berlin, April 3--Put out of business by automobiles, Karl Hartmann, Ber- lin's oldest cab driver, is closing in a spectacular fashion a career of al- most half a century. Wearing th traditional lacquered stovepipe hat, an ancient uniform, and urging on a decripit nag with which he has seen many years of service, the he- whiskered old man started his last drive today, with Paris his goal. Persons in the streets, noticing the rattle-trap vehicle with signs bearing the inscription: "Berlin and Wann- see to Paris," thought the matter an April fool joke, but the old driver, after showing his passport and cre- dentials from the Mayor, slowly drove out of the city. Once a Wealthy Man Forty-three years ago Hartmann founded the Wannsce Cab Company and did a big business for about three decades, but the arrival of the taxi- cab finally crowded him to the wall. For many years he has hardly been able to earn a bare living. Yhe idea of closing his activities with a drive to the French Capital entered his head last year when Mlle. Rachel Dorange rode from Paris to Berlin on horseback. A new steel shovel can dig up several tons of earth in a min- ute. This is the sort of thing that makes golfers sour. -- Port Hope Guide.
