DEADLOCK REACHED
UNIVERSAL AIR RIGHTS CONFERENCE UNACCEPTABLE PROPOSAL Rec. 8 p.m. GENEVA, Nov. 24. The 39-nation conference seeking a universal treaty on air rights reached a deadlock when the British and United States delegations announced they were unable to accept a proposal which the conference adopted by a narrow margin yesterday.

The conference adopted the proposal on a sudden rally of small air powers, including Australia,. New Zealand, India, and Canada.
