Passage by Congsess of the Watres bill, providing for revision of the air- mail regulations in accordance with the proposals advanced by Postmaster Gen- eral Walter F. rown in a recent speech in Cleveland, was urged by representa- tives of the air transport lines at a hear- office committee. Revision of the airmail contract regu- lations on some such basis as that em- bodied in the Watres bill is necessary {to put the passenger airlines of the country on a paying basis, a majority of the witn s agreed.

Postmaster General Brown appeared to urge the committee to approve the Watres bill. With him came a_score of other witnesses from airmail and passenger lines, but no voice was raised in_opposition to the legislation. Brown said there was not a passenger line in the country which did not lose money last year. “The problem must be solved,” he said, “or we shall have an utter col- lapse of the air-passenger industry.

MacCracken said that unless some such legjslation is passed air transport must be confined exclusively to airmail. “Operators can't run a passenger route on passenger fares alone,” he added, “at least it can’'t be done under a competitive bidding basis when bid- ding is not based on a passenger and mail service, but on mail service only.” [/D.

Both the costs and the loss are charged indirectly against the farmers who produce the wheat, he sald.
