CARGO CARRIER
OF THE AIR

Months ago when the design of the
giant Martin cargo plane, soon known
under the name Mars, was heralded
and construction started, interest at once
was centered on its availability. Com
mercial planes had been coming out in
larger and larger designs. Each one
might be the final word in tonnage. Doubt
as well as interest marked the progress
ON building the MARS" Then came init
ial tests, and after that no word of any
kind The war censorship had clamped
down. Now the veil is lifted and the
MARS not only has flown and flown
far and well, but has carried and deliver
ed almost unbelievable loads, 1t has made
flight to South America and back with
stops at Caribbean ports and mainland
stops Announcement of its flight came
through the navy and with that announce
ment it was made known that plans are
under way for the construction of
fleet of these monster air carriers. AT
one time on the recently completed flight
the Mars carried $4,000 pounds with
perfect performance. Nor was this
capacity cargo.
This successful flight is definite sign
as to what the future holds in air trans
port.
While no claim was made as to speed
on the flight, the big bird averaged above
150 miles an hour.

COMMERCIAL AIRLINES
IN POSTWAR ERA

=, "The United States should take immed
,, late steps to secure postwar commercial
:, aviation rights in Latin-America air in
stallations built with American funds"
70 Thus spoke a House military affairs
eaviation subcommittee in a report to the
house after the committee had completed
!. a Ia ,00O-mile plane tour throughout Gen.
vttral and South America.
In making its report this committee OBJ
= served that hemisphere defense had been
carried out and that the next immediate
step should be utilization of these ex
-pensively built bases.
1t is encouraging to find congress on
the alert on this so vital question as it
r affects the future of Americas part in
, aviation 1t will be still more encourag
ing and much more to the point if this,
or some other committee actually gets
down to business and Congress then acts.
80 Boasting of the United States taking
the lead in pioneering and putting COM
mercial aviation ahead sounds good,
: but now is the time to quit boasting
and get busy, especially since we have
built the bases at the taxpayers expense
and since world aviation is to be one of
the biggest items in reconstruction after
tho war
