AIRLINE EXPRESS
FOR AREATALKED
Group To Visit City; Serv-
ice For Perishables
Discussed

Walter J. Cartier, executive sec
rotary of the Chamber Of Com.
merce announced yesterday that a
representative OF U. S. Airlines
Inc, is excepted to visit Whining
ton soon for the purpose Of dis
cussing with Chamber Of Com
merce, City and County officials
prospects for an air express serv-
ice for Wilmington. The Chamber,
according to Secretary Cartier, has
been supplying factual data which
the airline requested in order to
determine the economic wisdom Of
supplying Wilmington.
Owing to the large volume Of
perishables produced in the Will
mington area data collected to date
indicates that for six to nine months
of each year, this territory could
assure the carrier a full load. For
this reason, Mr.. Cartier. pointed
out. the airline's interest in the Will
mington area has been encouraging
and the prospects of such an air
cargo service being secured now
seem good.
This hope was buoyed Up con-
siderably by letter received from
the airline recently in which OF
ficals of the service expressed the
idea that they would be able to
inaugurate such. a service for Will
mington by fall, and possibly even
by this summer.
At the southeastern states hear
.ings being conducted before the
Civil Aeronautics Board at Sedge
field Inn, near Greensboro, Will
mington has filed by reference its
brief in the case. Without specific
ally supporting any given airline,
Wilmington in filling its brief pre-
sented in the Great Lakes to Florl-
da case, has expressed its interest,"
in receiving service.
OF the original 46 lines applying
for certification, some sixteen IN
tend to serve the Wilmington area
The only line presently certified te
serve Wilmington is National Air
lines, but Inauguration. of services
will remain suspended until use O.
the local airport for civilian pur
poses is available e.~
One of the routes more favor
able to Wilmington's interests Is
outlined by Southeastern Air Elk
press Co., which provides service
from Wilmington via Lu1nberton
Sumter, Columbia, Anderson, Atne1
to Atlanta, furnishing vital connect
ion between Wilmington and the
west. 49, ~. 81
Also under consideration by tnt
board is a recent application Of
Eastern Air Lines, which proposes
routes from Wilmington north II
New York and south to Charleston
with a detour by Raleigh; also link
ing Wilmington with lines serving

"ADVERSE FACTORS"
CUT JAP PRODUCTION

WASHINGTON, June 5.-W.P)-
Japanese production has dropped
so steeply due to a number OF
adverse factors that the people
must endure hardships several
times greater than those at pres
ent in order to maintain the bare
minimum output for carrying on
the war, Tokyo said today.
The economic correspondent OF
the newspaper Yomiuri Hochi,
quoted in a Damei Agency broad
cast, gave a gloomy review OF
Japanese industry. He advocated
greatly increased state control OF
production and limited that raw
material sources in the Southwest
Pacific might have to be written
off due to the critical transporta'
ton situation.
Frankly speaking, munitions
production since the latter part
of last year has been SO constraln'
ed by number Of adverse factors
that the outputs of coal, iron, steel
and light metals and other vital
materials has not been up to ex
pectations, the correspondent
wrote. "This fact is due to re.
.strictions on transportation with
the Southern regions, Manchukno
and China, as well as to adverse
production factors, especially la
bor.'

RACES Hours After
Sixth Attack
CHAM. WEDNESDAY, June g.

GUAM, WEDNESDAY, June g.
REGreat fires ragged in Kobe yes
terday hours aftef approximately
$50 Superfortresses struck their
heaviest blow at this sixth city and
largest port of Japan al cost OF
eight bombers.
The bomber losses - less than
half the record total of 10 shot
down over Tokyo in the big fire
raid of May 20 - were announced
in Washington by the goth Air Force
which said results of the raid were
excellent.
The Japanese agency Doeml,
which had claimed Sc of the B-29s
were shot down, was heard admit
ing six hours after the last bomber
turned for home that the fires were
only then gradually being extin-
guished.''
Tons of fire bombs plummeted in
to a square mile area of eastern
Kobe, embracing the vast Kobe,
steel works, near a nine-square-
mile area laid in ashes by two
other raids in February and March.
The big bombers resolutely press
ed home their attacks against the
worst that the Japanese and the
weather could offer.
Heavy and accurate anti-aircraft
fire greeted the bombers as they
sailed out of the banks of Thunder
heads and fog into the fair skies
over Kobe, $50 miles southwest Of
Tokyo.
At least 40 aggressive Japanese
fighter planes came barreling up
to meet them, and by enemy ac-
count some crashed into the Super.
forts in suicidal attacks.
But for all the opposition, the
heavyweights cruised the skies over
Kobe for an hour, dumping their
incendiary loads On the steel works,
two main railway stations, ship
yards and docks.
