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.

ON AD REGULATION
NEW YORK, June 27. (AP) J.
D. 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."
