REGULAR AUSTRALIAN • SERVICE NOT YET PROBABLE CHRISTMAS MAIL PAYS COST
-By Telegraph — Copyright.)
LONDON, Thursday. Cold weather is worrying Air Commodore Kingsford Smith almost as much as his machine's ill luelc. He flatly dismissed stories of his acceptance of an appointment in England. He said: "I have no desire to leave Australia.1 It is too cold here." The Air-Commodore hopes to return to the sunshine of Sydney in a fortnight from January 6. It is revealed that in the absence ofiany move from Australia it is impossible to do anything here to push a regular mail service. It is reafiirmed that the Southern Star's mail paid its way but it was exceptional and it had the appeal of novelty. A regular mail would not have the same patronage, though Air-Commodore Kingsford Smith is convinced that the services would stand on its own feet after a year's aid.
