810.79611 Pan American Airways, Inc./700

The Second Assistant Postmaster General (Glover) to the Chief of the Division of Latin American Affairs (Munro)

My Dear Doctor: Would it be interesting for the State Department to know that the Post Office Department has several Air Mail contracts with the Pan American Airways Company which have been in operation for quite a period of time, all giving most satisfactory service from an operation record?

The line from Key West and Miami, Florida, to Havana, Cuba, is one of the outstanding contracts of the Post Office Department which has given exceptional service, having been in operation since October 19, 1927.

This Company also has in operation a line from Miami to Cristobal, Canal Zone, through the Pan American Countries, and a line from Miami to San Juan, Porto Rico, via Havana, Cuba, with its recent extension to Paramaribo, Dutch Guiana, South America. Both of these lines have contracts with the Department and are giving service equally as good as the first mentioned line.

The Department believes that, in the operation of all these lines by the Pan American Airways Company, it is giving a very high type of service and it is satisfied with the service rendered under the various contracts between it and the operating companies.

Very sincerely yours,

W. Irving Glover
