During the past year fliers of this company have blazed new air mail lines through the heart of Africa and have extended the. services in South Africa.

It is the aim of the Air Minister to connect Paris with all the capitals of Europe. A large percentage of the budget will be spent in technical study, and re- search in which department France soon hopes to excel. The budget makes no nvention of trans-Atlantic flights and it is therefore believed the Government continues its oppo- sition to such flights until safer and better machines are perfect.
