This interesting photograph gives some idea of the kind of freight transport service which Guinea Air ways Limited is supplying to the Morobe Goldfields, in the interior of New Guinea. This big Junker ’plane has just arrived at the Wau aero-

drome, on the goldfields, from Lae, on the coast, and it has discharged, as part of its one load 1 Baby Austin motor car, 1 office safe and 38 bags of rice—a total weight of 5,262 lbs. (nearly 2½ tons). ===
