Official notice of the award has been received by Postmaster General New from B. Russell Shaw, executive vice-chairman of the contest committee of the National Areonautical association. Formal presentation will be made this week- Although there have been many notable achievements in the air during the past year, the award reecived the unanimous vote of the The accomplishment upon which the award was based was the demonstration last August when, during a five day test, the air mail service spanned the continent twice daily in from 27 to 30 hours by flying mail ships at night over a lighted pathway 1,000 miles long.

Established in 1911 This demonstration was merely a test to determine the practicabiliV night flying and the value, as aide to flight, of giant beacons strung across the plains country. The experiment was completed without a single accident, without a single delay of the mails and the time made from coast to coast was better than hoped for by even the most enthusiastic of the air mail service promoters.

In 1922 the award went to the V. f. air' mail service for "their wonderful achievement in completing a year's operation under the different routes from coast to coast without a single fatal accident." The citation of the award just made was "'to the pilots and other personnel of the U- S. air mail service for successful demonstration to the world of the practicability of night flying in commercial transportation."
