Tahiti

Survey Plane Busy in July

From Our Own Correspondent

Papeete, July 10.

A TASMAN Empire Airways flying-boat, with a survey party in charge of Mr. I. A.

Scott, arrived here on July 3.

Flights have been made to many points around Tahiti; and on July 9 the party, with the British Consul here, left for Raiatea and Bora Bora.

As already announced, TEAL are planning a regular service to Tahiti; and it is hoped that, as a result of the data which has been accumu lated on this survey, the service will begin in November or December.

The TEA plane is scheduled to leave here again, on its return flight, on July 13.

A Naval division of 50 New Guinea natives is being formed for service with the Australian Navy.
