Washington Scene: Air Mail Boom After War Expands Service
Patar Edson reports that postwar air mail and express services could boom as excess aircraft and personnel find work. All-American Airways operates five routes to 109 cities, with plans to extend to 287 communities and an additional nine firms proposing 26 more states. The system uses ground pickup poles and an onboard winch to collect mail at high speed, funded by government contracts. Rep Jennings Randolph backs expansion, noting costs around 40 cents a mile and revenue gains of 47 to 93 percent in served cities.
