Lawrence, commanding general of the India- China division, air transport com mand, announced. The India-China division is com pleting, by homeward movements of freight and personnel, its war mis sion of trans-India. India-China and lntra-Chlna transport. It has made air history by flying cargo and passengers In regularly sched uled day and night transit over routes once virtually unusable, primarily the famed hump. Its war cpntribution, say aviation leaders, has provided far-reaching portents for the future of air transport on a world-wide scale. In July, 1945. 71,000 tons of material was flown across the Hump, while at the moment of Jap surrender the rate was nearly two tons a min ute. "rtom a small monthly tonnage at the outset," said General Law rence in a war's-end statement to his troops, "cargo to China has increased until it has been proved that whole armies could be sup plied by air in China—and they were, to the distress and destruc tion of our enemies."
