Port Moresby Goldfields
From Our Own Correspondent.
Rabaul, July 30.
SINCE the inauguration of a regular air service from the Morobe Gold field (New Guinea) to Port Moresby (Papua), a new avenue of communication with Rabaul has been opened up.
Letters and other mail matter from Salamaua and the Goldfields District are being forwarded by air mail to Port Moresby, thence to Rabaul by the usual mail vessels en route to Aus tralia.
By this air mail, correspondence in tended for Rabaul will reach here at least a fortnight earlier than it would by the usual method of waiting until the “Montoro” or “Macdhui”’ returned to Rabaul, after doing the trip to out ports, prior to returning to Australia.
