(Special Air Mall Service)

Landon, Jan. 28. The coming year, which opens with the duplication of the regular weekly air services to India and South Africa and the beginning of the service to Australla, starts well An almost bewildering concurrence or achievements and big enter prises marks the last fortnight of the old year as the most fateful in the history of flying. Individual successes, like that of Mr. Ken Waller's mall flight by British the aeroplane and engines to Congo and back, still play their part, but they are now the stimula- ting inciderits in a great general advance.

Most happily, the, passing year aldents in the Air Force since the has been the year of fewest ac-

The winches on board were worked by steam and if they had been working, witness could have heard them. In his opinion there aast have been some mistake. The Holchow was working cargo al buoy B16. The Klangau had been in port for one week, and had finished discharging cargo at p.m. on January 17, and on that day log ends and teak logs were Ioaded to the ship. There were" no other boats along the starboard side at 11.30 am. on January 20 with the exception of the police launch.

The Chief Officer, Mr. F. J. Gregg was then called and he stated that he could see buoy B16 from the Kiangsu, but he could not say which ship was, buoyed there, ex- cept that it was an "E Class boat. Between 11.30 am and 12 noon witness hailed a police Taunch and shouted that a ship had been fly- ing the police flag for half an hour.

The defendant alleged that the complainant stayed out late at night and was spolling his reputa tion.'
