In East Samoa?
THERE has been an important de velopment in relation to the Trans-Pacific airlines. Governor Lowe, of American Samoa, who has been in Washington in connection with finance, radioed late in Feb ruary that official approval now has been given to the proposal that Pan American Airways shall use an air strip near Pago Pago.
It is believed that PAA may substi tute a stop at Pago Pago for the stop at Canton Island, in the trans-Pacific flight. The Pago Pago strip will have to be improved and extended, but officials believe this can be done in six months.
