THE CHINA MAIL

ANTIPODES AIR MAIL OFFER

Dutch Or British

Monopoly?

The recent announcement, pu-

blished in Melbourne, that the Roy al Dutch Air Lines had offered to convey the air mails from Europe. to the Australian coast with the in- troduction of larger and faster ma- chines on October-1st, and without any guarantee of revenue, has creat- ed considerable interest. In many quarters and has again focussed at tention on the work of the Dutch |Air Lines. · Häving operated regu-| larly over the 9,000 mile route be tween Amsterdam and Batavia for some years, the Dutch company has decided still further to improve the excellent service provided, and the new programme, which comes into operation on October 1st of this year, includes the use of larger and faster machines in which there will be sufficient additional capacity available for the Australian maila. A reduction of the usual eleven days between Amsterdam and Bata. via to a proposed schedale of nine days makes the service of still greater value, and would thus en

able mails from Europe to reach Wyndham in twelve days by re- gular weekly service..

If there were no intention to re arrange Australian air services, and If there were no real desire to create an all-British air mail service be- tween Australia and England, there would still be quite an appreciable advantage by the Dutch company connecting with the air service on our North West coast, and allowing letters to be carried by air to Perth and to Adelaide. For points further east the rail services would be avail- able, but by such a plan some capi- tal cities would lose several days each way in comparison with a more direct distribution by a new air route from Wyndham via Alice Sorings to Adelaide, which would fado connect with Q.A.N.T.A.S. ser

vice at Newcastle Waters for Bris- bane. The plans now before the Government provide for the much-

Frequent connection from Port Said for Passengers and Cargo to Condesired all-British service, together stantinople, Pireaus, Smyrna and other Levant Porta by staanists of the Khedival Mail Steamship Co.

with a re-arrangement of internal routes to. secure the full benefits of saving 50 per cent of the time now taken for mails to reach all Australian capital cities from Lon- don, and with the splendid example set by the Dutch and the valuable results achieved, the future pros- pects for these plans can be mora accurately forecast. The safety of multi-engined land machines over long sea stretches has been proved by the Dutch to be greater than with marine aircraft, while the value of wireless has been establish- ed beyond all doubt.
