AVIATION NOTES.
(By "Meteorite.) Reports from Japan toll of great activities amongstthose interested in aviation, and the latest project in course of consideration is the linking of the capital with Shang- hai by an aerial mail service. Such a project if realised will have great influence on the pro- gress of aviation in the Far East. Thoro is a strong current of traffic between these two centres of in- dustrial activity, and the moral resulte derived from a successful operation of the service will do much to dispel doubts entertained
in
some quarters as to the lucrativeness to be secured from this form of transport. In the first place an aerial service of the extent of such a scheme will more than reward itself in the advant- ages it possesess of being able to give quick transit between these two cities, so distantly separated from each other by the whole width of a sea. At the same time, the possibilities of these two places becoming the respec- tive discharging points for tho future aviation systems of the two countries must not be over- looked. There aro indications that in this matter a friendly spirit of co-operation is entering into the arrangements of the two countries. Let us hope that it will make itself perceptible when the critical time somos of putting the project into execution, as only with the mutual assistance ex- tended on friendly grounds, can a project of the character of the one under review meet with
success.

What are intended to be the largest deroplane workshops in the Orient will shortly be established at Nagoya under the reputed auspices of the Mitsubishi and other influen- tial concerns who are finan- cially interested in the scheme. The first dirigibles to be put on the Shanghai-Tokyo mail service jare to be constructed and deliver- led from these works.
