TERMINAL SELECTED.
SYDNEY AIR MAIL SERVICE. (United Press Association—Copyright.) CANBERRA, August 3. ' The Federal Cabinet, after long consideration, has decided to establish the overseas air mail terminal at Rose Bay inside the harbour. It will be ready for the inauguration of the flying-boat service in January. The base will eventually bo at Botany Bay, which is expected to become a huge airport, embracing both land and water machines, in tho vicinity of Mascot. Only passengers and mails will be handled at Rose Bay. Repairs will be carried out elsewhere. The Cabinet’s decision has been greatly delayed and hampered by tho hostility of citizens of the Rose Bay area, who raised all manner of objections to the existence of a terminal in their district which contains fine homes and residential sites.
