POSSIBLE LINK WITH SHANGHAI

London, Apr. 8. Questioned with regard to the carriage of air mall from Shangbai to Europe, Sir Philip Sassoon, Under-

·Secretary for Air, in the House of Commons to-day said he preferred at the moment not to say more than that the possibility of making an ar rangement similar to that between the China National Aviation Corpora- tion and Air France was not being overlooked.

This is taken to mean that His Majesty's Government would wel- come a co-operative arrangement boi tween the Chinese aviation concorn and Imperial Airways, which is al- ready linked up with Hongkong by a service from Penang-Reuter."

All the ponies, with the exception of Ythan, in the Swatow Handlen "D" class (First Section) over a mile have not as yet been placed this season and Daylight Eve has never raced in a "D" class event.

It is amusing to note that Racing Heart, who is the present, record holder of the distance of this should be a "B" class pony and he is set to concede 16 lbs. to Ranger, who was fourth in Rooty Hill Derby at the Annual Carnival. An interesting raco should be seen between these two ponies while Centro Court should be in the limelight. Australian Boy, whe does not require any introduction, is dangerous.
