GOERING MAKES CASTIGATION
The Imperial. Airways directors are able to report, this year the record proft in the company his-
reached after charging £192,950 for obsolescence of aircraft in the operating feet; if every allowance be made for the substantial state subsidy received by the company it would seem to indicate that the company is proceeding steadily to- wards the financial independence which has been its declared goal since it was formed eleven years
ago,

Now the company is preparing for the carriage of the vastly big- ger loads that will follow the trans- ference in 1837 or 1938 of all first-" class mail to the aeroplane, in ac- cordance with British government- al policy. Orders now in hand for new aircraft form one vital branch of the work of organization; - tablishment of efficient "ground" organization all along the Empire routes is another. Although they will be much larger than any ma- chines yet in the Imperial fleet, the new Eying boats and land-
planes will also be faster than their forerunners. Details already released' of new short monoplane aying boats for the company's services indicate that the ma- ximum speed will be near 200 miles an hour and the landplanes, sever- al of which are in, course of. con- struction at the Armstrong Whit- worth factory, will be at least equally fast.
