An experimental mail #ent by Hongkong postal officials London, via the Saigon-Marseilles air route, reached its destination in 13 days.
The mail, which consisted of only 15 letters, was despatched from Hongkong to Saigon by the Messageries Maritimes liner Athos I, on June 7. The letters arrived at Saigon on June 10, and were despatched next day by air mail, arriving at Marseilles at 7 p.m. on June. 19. They were im- medintely forwarded to Paria, ways service picked them up and where the regular Imperial Air-
transmitted them to London. They arrived there on June 21. The actual transit time between Hong- kong and London was 13 days, and between Saiyou, and London. 10 days.
The average
transit time for mail to the United Kingdom via the Siberian route is 20 days, al- though mail has been received in London 18 days after despatch From Hongkong. The air service thus shows a saving of from five to 10 days.
Service Open to Public. Postal officials stated Foster- hy that speriatly superscribed:
