twenty-eight airplanes, of which nine were the tri-motorcd giants of the
air, were used at Toledo recently to haul the biggest airmail shipment in the
world's history when tho Willys-Overland Company tent out 700,000 Whippet
letters weighing 30,000 pounds to actual prospects in more than 6,000 towns
covering every state. The big monoplanes each carried 2,500 pounds of the
.-mail. - - .:-:-- .:
A Icrge part of the shipment traveled a distance of 1 1,000 miles in the air
before reaching conveyances for its Anal-delivery. This spectacular delivery
was carried on without interrupting regular airmail schedules elsewhere and
testified to the splendid development of commercial aviation in the United
1 States during the last two years, ' ' '
