This was another wonderfully bizarre '30s cartoon from Japan

This was another weird and wonderfully bizarre Japanese cartoon from the '30s. In this one, planes stop at traffic in the sky like the cars below. And one of these planes is a cab that takes passengers. This cabbie, though, doesn't seem to be very good for humans since one of them has a bad encounter with this one after the cab goes into a black cloud that shakes all it's other victims out! Instead, the cabbie seems more kind to animals like an eagle with a bad foot or a bear that also seems to be a bit handicapped. Other bizarre stuff happens here but I'll just say look this one up on YouTube. Oh, and there are no subtitles, just a Japanese woman narrating in her own language on a silent short with added music. It's under the title "The Plane Cabby's Lucky Day".
