PAGE EIGHT MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, THURSDAY, JUXE 27, 1935. 3-DAY SERVICE TO CHINA PLAN OF PLANE LINE Huge 44-Passenger Clippers Will Be Used When Serv ice Inaugurated in Fall Double Ship Fares 6AN FRANCISCO, June 27. (P) From California to China In three days, with an overnight atop at Wake Island Included! That's the schedule planned by Pan-American Airways for Its new trans-Pacific air service, for which the flying clipper has been paving the way with flights to Hawaii and Midway Island during the last few weeks. Disclosure that the new service will be available late In September or early In October was made here by V. E. Chenea, general traffic man ager for Pan-American. Chenea was on a 25,000-mile Inspection tour of the company's lines. t "What we figure on," he said, "Is landing the passenger In China on the third day."' Chenea said the exact time requir ed for the flight across the Pacific has not been figured out as yet. From San Francisco to Manila would take about 4o" hours, he estimated, not counting the overnight stop at Wake Island nor the briefer pauses at Hono lulu, Midway Island and Guam Isl and. The flying clipper, be revealed, will not be used when regular passenger end express service starts, "because It Is too small." Instead, huge 44 passenger Martin clippers, now being constructed, will make the trip. "The new ships." Chenea said, "will carry a pay load of about 3,800 pounds enough for 13 passengers, their luggage, some express and mall." Tentative plans, he added, call for passongcr rates about double now charged by steamship lines. On that basis, the fare to Manila would fee slightly less than 1.000, and to Hono lulu about $365.

Bnrnum, president of the Ameri can Newspaper Publishers' associa tion, today attacked an "attempted defense" by Henry A. Wallace, secre tary of agriculture, of "the vast powers sought In the pending legis lation for the amendment of the agricultural adjustment act." Bfirnum stated his criticism in a letter to the secretary. It was a re ply to Walince's communication wherein the secretary rejected an amendment proposed by the pub lishers' association, at his own re quest, preventing governmental regu lation of advertising. Referring to earlier correspondence. Barnum reminded Wallace that the secretary had recorded himself as having "no objection to nn amend ment specifically providing that noth ing In the uct shnll be construed as giving any authority to regulate advertising." "In my reply." Burnum's letter said, "I pointed out to you that your department has Interfered with advertising. Not only have you and your associates on various occasions referred to advertising as economic waste, but, as X stated, you have Interfered with It. I cited specific examples of such Interference . . . " Barnum mentioned the depart ment's restrictions, "one of which, as .approved by you, was declared unconstitutional by the supreme court In the Schechter case." "Now," the letter continued, "you state that while you agree with the position taken In the ' (publishers') Bulletin, that this legislation should not give the government authority to regulate advertising, you object to the proferred amendment on the theory that It will compel govern mental regulation of advertising. II I thought It would give such power, I should have been the, last to sug gest It." nudupcht Stamps BUDAPEST (UP) On the occasion of the 300th anniversary of the Buda pest University, to be celebrated this summer, the government will Issue special stamps and 50,000 memorial two-pence silver coins will be minted.
