It ta declared here that the plan to develop -a new aviation field Just north or Vallejo has been abandoned ror the time being at least, because tne promoters of the Vallejo airport have decided to make improvements to the field that will meet the requirements of local as well as visiting plane owners. The Vallejo airport at the Three Mile House has been in use for two years, ana has been used on a number of occasions by flyers from the naval ships that base at Mare Island. At one time it was believed the port would be transferred to the reclaimed land between North and South Vallejo.

That plan was dropped because the navy yard officials do not, want planes to fly over the magazines. REPORTS CONVENTION' MANTECA, April 6.

"The new distributor," says Reid, "Is to carry a complete line of trucks and take orders for coaches which are ado to order. The coache business is developing rapidly in Alberta under the- impetus of an extenslvo highway program. "While at the factory, Russell ex. pressed the belief that the increased1 demand for trucks is largely due to a tremenduous trend toward nower farming.
