AIRMEN BUILD TOWN

IN MIDST OF

PRIMEVAL FOREST

W

A new town is growing up on the island af New Guinea, in the centre of the newly-discovered gold-mining region; and the ro Inarkabla thing about it is that it owes its existente exclusively to aircraft. Everything required, including even heavy machinery, is carried to the spot by a fow aeroplanca manufactured by the German Junkers works. This is the first time that aircraft has been resorted to in connection with the building-up of a lown.

New

The British colonial air line to and on New Guinea is of particu- lar Importance just now. Since the war one half of the huge island belongs to Great Britain, whilst the other half is-and al- ways has been-a Duter nosser- sion.

Prior to 1927 the importance of the country was but light; but all this was altered after the dis- covery, in that year, of large de- posits of gold near the native village of Bulelo in the Wan dia- trict, about 10 miles from the Huon Gulf. Owing to the dense tropical forest, several high moun- tain ranges and a number of dif flcult rivers it is next to impos- sible to reach Bulalo in the or- dinary way. To do so on foot would require weeks and would involve innumerable hardships; and the construction of a railway line would prove too

costly investment.

Read the fifteen principal uses" of "ASPRO' listed below. The reason why such definite claims are made for 'ASPRO' is because 'ASPRO' is both a powerful.germicide and an internal antiseptic, and, after ingestion in the system, it is anti-pyretic, anti-periodic, anti- fermentative, antiseptic and a solvent of Urie Acid. Don't endanger your health with impure medicines. 'ASPRO' does hot harm the heart nor have any injurious after-effects, Therefore avoid risk by insisting on-'ASPRO."

HUNDREDS OF FLIGHTS.

The statistics recently publish

by the New. Guineu nd- ministration show the extent

ed

of the work accomplished by the three aeroplanes. The first of them has made 458 and the second 462 flights, whilst the third- mostly engaged in flying to and from the adjacent villago of Wau -made 287 flights, carrying 900 tons merchandise. Altogether, the three machines have trans ported 4,000 tons of machinery and mechanical requisites, The conditions of operation are ex- ceedingly unfavourable. The fly- ing grounds are small. Many of them are on marshy ground and Burrounded by dense massor of shrubs which have to be cut down at intervals of a few days. Na- tive helpers are not available ex- cept to a very limited extent. The population of Bulalo (about 2,000) exclusively consists of Europeans working in the gold mines, The exploitation of the mines has made but little progress so far, owing to the enormous difficulties; but Bulalo itself has developed into a modern town ro plete with modern comfort, and it is certain that it will soon play an Important part in the economic life of the huge island.
