HOOVER FIELD MAI | STATION STUDIED Would Serve Nearby Com- munities Along Rail Lines Crossing Potomac. . Establishment of a post office sub- station at Washington-Hoover Airport to expedite handling airmail, not only Jocally but from communities along the Tailroad lines crossing the Potomac ‘which are not regular airmail stops. is being considered by officials of the new administration, it was learned today. The substation would handle airmail direct from all Virginia communities in the vicinity of the National Capital, some local mail and a large amount of the airmail from towns and cities along the railroad lines between Washington and Philadelphia and Washington and Richmond, it is understaod. Practice Discouraged. Although there is no post office at the airport now, and though the posting of airmail matter there is discouraged by the Post Office Department, a con- siderable quantity of mail is left there to be put on planes. It is necessary for | the airmail pilot to take personal charge | of this uncanceled mail and to deliver it | at the port of destination, where it is canceled and delivered. Not only could this type of mail be handled at a field substation, but this type of business probably could be materially increased, it is believed. The greatest saving in time in han- dling of airmail through an airport sta- tion, it is believed, would be in the case of communities along the railroads pass- ing the fild. This mail now is dropped off at the Washington office, separated, pouched and sent to the field by truck. Many Airports Have Stations. With an office at the field, the mail would be sorted and put in pouches by railway mail clerks and dropped di- rectly at the airport, ready to go into the planes for Pittsburgh, Cleveland and the West or for delivery along the coastal airmail line-from New York to Miami. Many large air terminal cities in the United States now have airport post office substations, Washington being one of the largest important air transport centers not now provided with such service. Officials of the railway mail service have been in communication with the airport management and have been as- sured that space would be made avail- able at the local air terminal for a post office substation in case the plan is approved. All airmail now loaded and unloaded at Washington-Hcover Airport is moved ‘between the airport and the Washington City Post Office by truck. FIRST LADY'S AIR TRIP “PURELY PERSONAL” Mrs. Roosevelt Avoids Making Any Engagements for Journey to Coast. By the Associated Press. No engagements whatever are being made by Mrs. Pranklin D. Roosevelt | for het air trip to'the West Coast next month and she is trying to Testrict it entirely to the “purely personal.” She made this known yesterday in re- vealing that she will leave Washington on June 4 and will be accompanied by Miss Nancy Cook of New York, a fre- quent traveling companion. She is to visit her son Elliott. She probably will stop in Santa Fe, N. Mex.,,on her way to California, to ! see Mrs. Franklin K.

A possible alternate plan would | be to go by night to Columbus, Ohio, and fiy on from there. Elliott Roosevelt, an Airways offi- cial, will fly part way east to pick his mother up in his plane, probably at Santa Fe. { A day at the Grand Canyon is in. cluded in Mrs. Roosevelt’s plans, be- cause Miss Cook has never been farthe: ‘west than Chicago. i Her friend, Mrs. Isabel Greenway of ! ‘Winslow, Ariz, probably will meet her { somewhere on the way west and fly with her to Los Angeles. | Fireman Rescues Canary.
