Washington, Feb. 26.
Pan-American Airways announced yesterday that it would omit calling at Bermuda on trans-Atlantic flights after March 35.
The company said the United States Government had decided to establish two vessels in mid-Atlantic io provide weather reports, thus making it omit the stop at Bermuda.
The announcement made no mention of recent seizures of American mails from Pan-American planes by British authorities in Bermuda.
Officials here said they were not aware of Pan-American Airways' decision to omit the Bermuda call. They indicated the company made the decision on its own responsibility. It was recalled, however, that the Secretary of State, Mr. Cordell Hull, threatened last week to force Pan-American Airway to omit the Ber-mud call unless British interference with American mails there ceased.
Congressional circles also have agitated for the discontinuance of American airline calls at Bermuda because of the British seizures of American mail—United Press.
