DUTCH AERIAL SERVICES.
SOUNDING THE BRITISH GOVERNMENT. (United Press Association—By Electric Tel egraph—Copyright.) (Received February 20, 6.50 p.m.) AMSTERDAM, February 20. The London correspondent of the “Handelsblad” is reported to have interviewed Lord Thomson, who is credited with the statement that the British Government is unable to sanction a regular service from Holland to the Dutch Indies, until the State aerodromes in India are such as there will be no risk of danger to the ’planes. The Government does not desire to hamper Dutch aviation, especially in view of the Singapore-Port Darwin service, and the Holland Company is welcome to the use of the aerodromes as far as completed to Delhi. The Dutch simply requested sanction of a series of test flights.
