Empire Air Mail
AUSTRALIA’S BELATED AGREEMENT Received Wednesday, 9.5 p.m. LONDON, Feb. The Times, in a leader, says: “Australia has at last entered with some enthusiasm into the project of accelerating Empire air mails. The CommonI wealth Government hag yet to face the likelihood of a public outcry against the payment of a surcharge while letters not surcharged arrive by air mail from England. Eventually the demand for air trans-, port without an extra charge will probably be irresistible when with the extension of the route letters from New Zealand pass through Australia to England at ordinary rates. Therefore, it may be concluded that the Commonwealth is resigned to the ultimate concession which all other communities on the Empire routes have already approved.
