NEW TELLS AIR BOARD PLANES ARE A SUCCESS Wil -Routes Should Be Leased to Private Firms, His View. By William .1. MeEvoy Tinted Press Staff Corresvondent WASHINGTON, Sept. 23.—Now lhat the feasibility of the air mail service has been proven by the Postoffice Department, the Government should make definite plans to lease existing routes to private companies, Postmaster General Harry S. New told the President’s special aircraft board today. New. pointed with pride to his department’s operation of the plane service and said it demonstrated that commercial aviation is a possibility. At the outset of his remarks, New made it plain that the postoffice department ‘‘has no place" in any differences existing between military and naval authorities over aviation. Tracing the history of the air service, New told of the unsuccessful attempt to establish air routes from Washington to New York, Chicago to St. Louis and Chicago to the Twin Cities. He ascribed the failure of these routes to the short distance between terminals. He told of the establishment of the transcontinental system, with its lighted airway, illuminated landing fields and many other special facilities, at a cost of $504,410. This service was put into effect Jan. 14, 11)24. "Since this time," said New, “we have been able to meet our schedule 1 with a degree of regularity that has been highly gratifying. Os course, there have been delays and interruptions, just as there have been to passenger trains. lam inclined to think that inquiry will develop our delays have been less numerous th; n those of the railroads."
