AIR SERVICE
BRITAIN AND AUSTRALIA. MAY BE HELD UP. PROVISION OF LANDING PLACES. (United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright.) Received November 24, 11.35 a.m. SYDNEY, Nov. 24. The Sydney Morning Herald’s Canberra correspondent' says that unless the Commonwealth Government agrees to provide temporary landing places for flying-boats, there is no hope that the air mail service between Britain and Australia will start before the middle of 1938. The advent of the wet season in,the North makes it impossible to start the construction of bases until the end : of March, and it will be least three months later before they aro finished.
