Air Transport To Handle Fresh Fruit And Vegetables DETROIT. — California growers stand to benefit more from the development of air transportation than any other farm group in the United States, according to a comprehensive study of actual and potential traffic in fresh produce just completed by a group of Wayne University (Detroit) professors, headed by Dr. Spencer A. Larsen, and published today by the Wayne University Press. The national study forecasts that in the years immediately following the war, fresh produce alone will furnish enough air cargo to total over 233 times the combined weights of all commodities carried by air in 1941—proved air-freight rates are reduced to five cents per ton-mile—a figure which many authorities see as possible in the near future. Even at seven cents a mile, fruit and vegetable traffic equal to 80 times the 1941 figure for all air express is expected to develop. The survey stresses the importance of California to the future air-freight business, pointing out that almost a third of all fresh produce moved over 250 miles in the United States is grown in this state. Indications are that 212,000,000 ton-miles of traffic in these commodities will be transported from the California growers to the great midwestern and eastern market. Alex Jarmillo, 30, is in the Orange County hospital recovering from a gunshot wound in the chest believed by police to have been self inflicted. He lives at 124 West Santa Ana street.
