The Washington correspondent of the New York Times says a complete agreement between the United States. Britain and Ireland regarding reciprocal privileges for aeroplanes and landing rights along the route proposed for the trans-Atlantic air service which is contemplated for next spring was reported to-day. The only features on which there is not yet entire accord, it 'said, arc business arrangements between the two operators of PanAmerican Airways and Imperial Airways, but these have nothing to do with Governmental facilities. It also developed to-day that that the French Government was displeased that French operating companies had been left out of the negotiations of the past week. It is expected, however, that they will send a mission to New York soon to discuss another reciprocal agreement with a view to starting an American-French ocean air service.
