Company at the earliest possible moment after the start.
PHOTOGRAPHIC SECTICH.
It will be noted that $3,000.00 has been allowed
for a Photographic Section, the reason for this being that Aerial
Photography is a very important business, and will bring a
considerable amount of work to the Company.
Quite apart from the business of photographing
factories, business houses, building sites etc.: there should be
a very large business throughout the East for pictorial views,
and a certain amount of press work should also be done.
GOVERNMENT ASSISTANCE.
In view of the importance of the Air Routes to
local trade and the general benefit that will be derived by the places served, it is only fair that the Governments concerned
should grant a SUBSIDY for a period of four or five years,
and so
as not to hamper the work of the Company this subsidy should be
on a generous scale.
In return for this subsidy Mails would be carried
on all regular services, and on any special journeys made.
After the period of five years, or at an earlier
date if it were found that the services were expanding more
rapidly that had been hoped, actual Mail Contracts should be
granted to the Company.
In addition to this subsidy the Goverments
concerned should grant, FREE ACCOMODATION, or at a nominal rent,
FREE METEOROLOGICAL and WIRELESS SERVICES, that should cover the
arrival and departure of machines.
During the first five years when the Company will be working under difficulties the Goverments should protect the Company by a MONOPOLY, in so far that no Goverment work will be given to any other Company, and the use of the Air Parts by machines belonging to other Companies should be charged for.
