In Minneapolis Pilot Nommo Black, scheduled to leave with a sauth- bound cargo, was unable to take off because of a southwest wind of high velocity, he wired Dickinson. The St. Louis air mail route also was forced to suspend for the day because of weather conditions. Reports that the pilots had struck were deprecated by Dickinson, who said that it there was a strike he knew nothing of it “These flyers have more tempera ment than opera stars,” he asserted “I'm doing all 1 can to maintain the schedule.” Claims Toss in Work. Dickinson declared his contract wa being carried at a loss and that the of air mail for Minneapoiis and St. Paul from here was negligi ble. Recently, he said, one pilot had carried but two pounds from Chicago to Minneapolis and had picked up only $1.80 worth at Milwaukee. The contractor also said the planes had been in service under a 90-mile Government contract and forced un der the new schedule to do 102 miles. The Chicago-Milwaukee-Twin Cities route was put in service less than a month ago. One of the pilots on the inaugural day of the service was killed when his ship crashed in rail.
