Standard Oil Company, as its main distributing point for the en

Thanks to the air-mindedness and ujrjrressive leadership of
Mayor A. AV. iipes, the new airport was constructed in record
time, and largely as a result of the' mayor's personal interest
and initiative, the maximum results were obtained, at a mini
mum of expense. In many ways Med foul's airport is equal to
if not superior to any port of its class between tin Canadian
und Mexican lines. -
