Giant Plane for Trans-Atlantic Service

A.D.C. PRODUCTION.

To the Editor. "China Mail"]

Sir, While views are being aired] on the subject of lack of publie sup- part for our Amateur Dramatic per- formances, may I be allowed to criticise the policy of preferential treatment in the matter of advance booking. In this respect, only the more affluent class is catered for: the man of limited means, possibly with a family, cannot book a reat under $3 or $4. I applied at An- dersons for a $2 seat for The First Mrs. Fraser" but was told I could only get it at the theatre on the night of the performance. In other words "quent up”!

I think it would pay the A.D.C. to fall into line with other enter- Laluments and make "All Seats

Bookable"..

Development of a plane with a suficient carry load has been the problem of aviation angmears in prepar- ing for trans-Atlantie fiying. The photographer snapped this exclusive picture, of this gigantic flying boat, the country's largest, which will fly over the Atlantic with the first regular passenger and airmail ser vice. It is the Sikorsky S-42, being completed at Stratford, Conn., amid the greatest secrecy, and will carry 32 passengers and 1,000 pounds of mail over a 2.600-mile range.
