United King- dom since the inauguration of the Airgraph System a few months ago, according to information•roleased by the Hon. William P. Unlock, K,C., M.F., Postmaster General, Airgraph messages come from all parts pf the country indicating that the service is being widely used, Ev- ery effort is being made to improve the service, and according to reports it is operating smoothly at the pres- ent tree, but will continue to im- prove as more favorable Atlantic weather conditions prevail 'during the coming months. With the increas- ed number of troops overseas, and better weather conditions, this mod- ern facility will be taken advantage of by friends and relatives in Canada to send fast messages to the Boys overseas. Delivery of an Airgraph message to the addressee in the 'United King- dom is now made on an average from 8 to 10 days from the date of mail- ing. Unfortunately, due to unfavor- able weather conditions and an acci- dent to a plane, the Airgraph Service did riot get off to a favorable start. Delays were experienced in the de- livery: of many messages- posted at that ;time. Notwithstanding the de- lays, it should be recalled, duplicates of the messages were printed and delivered overseas. Every possible precaution is taken to ensure delivery of an Airgraph message to •its proper destination— this is being evidenced by the fact that duplicate copies of each message are flown across the Atlantic by alt- ernate routes. Canada has now been linked by Airgraph Service with our forces` in the Middle East, and it is now poss- ible to send Airgraph messages from this country to Canadian, British or Allied troops in that theatre of war. Such messages are sent in original form to I,ondon, England, whence they are transferred by British Air- graph to their destination.
