N.Z. PACIFIC SERVICE
Mr. Semple’s Hopes AN EARLY AGREEMENT. WELLINGTON, May 8. Hon. R. Semple slated to-day that, although an agreement had not been approved by Cabinet, he. was able to say definitely that there was no serious hitch so far as New Zealand was concerned in regard to the Pan-Ameri-can Airways. The Company’s representative had discussed the old agreement with him, taking exception to certain parts, and this was the subject of a conference between himself, Mr. Gatty and the Solicitor-General, and the objectionable features, from the Company’s point of view, had been removed. Unless there were some unforeseen hitch at the other end, an agreement would be completed. Mr. Semple added that the New Zea land Government had cabled to the British Government for certain information. and it was now awaitng a reply. The real delay on the whole matter seemed to be due to the American company not having had a copy of the agreement before it was signed.
