DOMINION AIR MAILS FOR ENGLAND
EQUALITY OF RIGHT TO ACCOMMODATION (United Press Association) WELLINGTON, June 20. A suggestion that the transport of New Zealand mails from Australia to England by the Empire air mail service to start next month was dependent upon a service to convey them after providing for all Australian mails was refuted by the Prime Minister (the Rt. Hon. M. J. Savage) this evening. “The question of lack of accommodation for New Zealand’s mails has not cropped up in any of the negotiations, said Mr Savage. “The air mail service between Great Britain and New Zealand will soon be an accomplished fact and once the service begins we will have the same call as any other party to the contract. We are not going to sit down and see New Zealand letters for England left behind in Australia.’
