AIRCRAFT IMPORTS
INCREASED DELIVERIES SOON MISSION TO UNITED STATES . f ' LONDON, Sept. 22. (Received Sept. 22, at 10 p.m.) The Ministry of Aircraft Production has announced that the deliveries of American planes to Britain were 50C monthly. Lord Beaverbrook's emissary, Mr H. F. James, after a tour of the United States aero factories, said: "The delivery of aero parts has greatly improved American manufacture, which is giving priority to British orders and extending plant to cope with still greater output. Packard's decision to manufacture Rolls-Royce engines considerably eased the problem of aero engine supply. The rate of the delivery of completed aeroplanes will be stepped up rapidly in the very near future."
