Postofficc authorities said that ; they have discontinued making 1 up an evening airmail pouch for Medford. where the airmail for merly was sent north and south by planes. Klamath's sole airmail service i is now via train to San Francisco land Portland, and thence by air I to other points.

At the request of The Herald and News, Senator Charles L McNary has submitted to the civil aeronautics board informa tion concerning the discontinu ance of the stage. This develop ment is looked upon here as a favorable factor in the argument for establishment of airline serv ice into Klamath Falls.
