AIR TRANSPORT
OVER LONG DISTANCE ROUTES DEVELOPMENTS IN TRAIN. OF CONSIDERABLE MOMENT TO NEW ZEALAND. (By Telegraph—Press Association— Copyright) (Received This Day, 10.30 a.m.) LONDON, March 10. Air transport is one of the most widely-discussed subjects in Britain at present, both from war time and postwar viewpoints. The House of Lords and the House of Commons will both shortly be debating its many aspects and it is believed that there may probably be created an air transport command, to play its part in all war theatres. It will be of particular interest to New Zealand in that the Dominion is an important air post through which is flowing the provision of arms and supplies for regaining parts of the British Empire at present occupied by the Japanese and also for China. Interest naturally is taken in the part New Zealand is prepared to play. It is an opportunity to prove the strategic importance of the Dominion in respect to post-war air transport between America and Australia and India and gives New Zealand a definite interest in post-war commercial aviation.
