As the clipper ships sailed the seven seas, built and created markets throughout the world ago, today the clipper ships of the air to span the great spaces in a fraction of the d take up the conquest with just as much d romance as surrounded the fine old sail- ng vessels of another day Friday from Alameda, Calif., the first China Clipper i i ‘THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, WEDNESDAY, NOV. 20, 1935 is scheduled to take to the for Honolulu, beginning | what is announced asa 40-hour mail service from New Yok to Honolulu. Truly, it is a magnificent achieve- ment. An interesting word picture of what advance has been made in the air leading up to the China Clipper is told by Reginald M. Cleveland, writing in the New York Times. Commenting on the China Clipper service, Mr. Cleveland writes: With the take-off from Alameda this month of a huge four-engined clipper ship of the air, Manila bound, in the opening of Pan American Airways' transpacific service, only the North Atlantic will remain bare of air- transport scheduled wings. It was only eight years ago last May that Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh opened the air trail across the At- lantic. That ocean, as well as the wider ocean to the west, will soon know the shadow of great pinions—the hum of whirring en- gines carrying at 150 miles an hour mail, passengers and goods on lanes without a track but definite as the course of an ocean liner. In less than a decade the continents have been linked in a web, invisible but actual, which has curtailed the time of international travel from weeks to days, from days to hours, and made neighbors of the far corners of the earth. From London its filaments swing over Europe, down the spine of Africa to Cape Town and across Mesopotamia to India, to Singapore and, at last, across the Timor Sea to Australia “down under.” From Amster- dam they run above middle Europe to skirt the Indian Ocean and reach even to Soera- baya, 9,000 miles away in the Dutch East Indies. From Paris one can fly to Marseilles and thence eastward to Saigon in Indo-China, or, at the Mediterranean port, one’s letters can wing southwestward to Senegal, the Cape Verde Islands and across the South Atlantic to Natal in Brazil. From Berlin one can go by air to Moscow and on across the steppes or to Oslo or Leiningrad or dispatch mail and goods across Spain to Dakar on the west African Coast and thence, by flying boat, to the East Coast of South America. Alaska, China and the far reaches of Soviet Russia have their scheduled air services. The, storied cities of romance—Baghdad, Delhi, Tashkent—all are stops on the airline net- work. In the Western Hemisphere all of Latin America is already served by the far- reaching system of Pan American; 32,000 miles of airways which ring the Caribbean, traverse most of the perimeter of South America and bring Buenos Aires within five days of New York. The United States, from the international angle, has the Latin-American system, the Alaskan system and the Chinese system of Pan American. In addition to its direct route from California to China, soon to be opened, this line has surveyed a route from Hawaii, further southward to New Zealand which, given satisfactory conclusions to international negotiations, may also see in the compara- tively near future the spread of mighty wings. The Pacific route, which has been pioneer- ed during the summer with successively longer flights to bases laid out in advance by a crew of specialists working from a chartered steam- er, totals 9,000 miles. It leads from the Cali- fornia short to Hawaii—thence to Midway Island, Wake Island, Guam, Manila and the swirling Canton River in China, where landing concessions have been obtained in the Por- tuguese colony of Macao. On this mighty air network, Alaska has an import- ant place as a result of Pacific Alaska Airways activities in the Territory. The time may not be far distant when Alaskans will get a view of the great clipper ships as they take the northern route to Siberia and Europe via Jineau and Nome.
