SAN DIEGO. Cal. Feb. 23.-Delivery of letter in San Diego. AS hours after being mailed in New York City, is pos sible by aerial mail, according to Ma jor Albert smith, the first American aviator to successfully make an air trip from San Diego to the metropolis and return.

 Major Smith declared that 4s- hour aerial mail service between, the two cities can now be maintained every day in the year via the airway to Tex as. and thence up the Atlantic coast to Washington, Philadelphia and New York City.
 He said the transcontinental stops should include the following:
 Yuma, Phoenix and Tucson, Ari- zona; Fl Paso, Big Springs. Dallas and Fort Worth, Texas; Montsomery. Ala bama: Jacksonville. Florida Savan- nah. Georgia; Raleigh. North Carolina; Petersburg and Hampton, Virginia; and Washington, Philadelphia and New York City. These stops give an average of 200 miles to each landing place, where mail could be dropped and taken aboard and the fuel tanks fcfilled
