Dealing with the service to Prince Ed/ward Island, Mr. Appleton gave figures to show how the depresion had affected traffic to and from the Island.

Arrangements are being made by the Postal authorities for a motor service to handle the mails on arrival of the plane at the Upton Air- port.

In view of the retrcnchmcnts being made in the air mail service in other parts of Canada in accord with the Department's policy of neces- sary economy, the promptness with which the request from Prince Ed- ward Island has been granted will be extremely gratifying.

Notification of the granting of the service and the date of its begin- ning was also received from Mr. Myers by Mr. Samuel Kennedy, Presi-
