TASMAN AIR SERVICE
DIFFICULTIES OF PROJECT. ACTION DEFERRED. (Press Association.—Copyright.) (Received 12.5 p.m.) Canberra, this day; The Minister for Defence, Mr. Parkhill, in discussing an air service linking Australia and New Zealand, said that although his Department had long realised the advantages of such a service, there were many difficulties to overcome before a regular air service could be established over such a large expanse of water. The recent visit of the New -Zealand delegation provided the opportunity for an exchange of views on the subject but deeper consideration of the matter was deferred until after the return of the Commonwealth Controller of Civil Aviation from a trip abroad, where he is studying the latest developments in aircraft, wireless, and other aids to trans-oceanic navigation.
