AIR MAIL SERVICE
BRITAIN AND AUSTRALIA START MAY BE DELAYED SYDNEY, Nov. 24. The Herald's Canberra correspondent says that unless the Commonwealth Government agrees to provide temporary landing places for flyingboats there is no hope of an air-mail service between Britain and Australia being started before the middle of 1938. The advent of the wet season in the north makes it impossible to start the construction bases until the end of March, and it will be at least three months later before they are finished.
