PACIFIC SERVICE
PROPOSED AGREEMENT IN JEOPARDY DEADLOCK ENSUES ONE PARTY SHOWS RELUCTANCE Australian and N.Z. Cable. CANBERRA, April (5. It is feared in some quarters here that the proposed agreement for a fast British passenger shipping service across the Pacific is in jeopardy. One of the proposed parties to the agreement appears to be reluctant to co-operate on any terms. Another attempt to overcome the deadlock will be made while the Australian trade delegation is in London. Australia and Britain have accepted the financial basis of the plan for Government assistance, and it is hoped the remaining Dominions concerned will be induced to fall into line. If the Dominion that has been most persistent in its opposition cannot be persuaded, however, it is unlikely that the remainder will be prepared to share the full cost involved. In that event the agreement will have to be abandoned.
