RADIO TELEPHONE.

EXTENSION TO NEW ZEALAND. PROJECT UNDER CONSIDERATION United Press Association —Copyright.) SYDNEY, May 1. Mr E. T. Fisk (managing director of Amalgamated Wireless, Limited) discussing the success of the radio telephone service, said there was an even more wonderful age before us. Ihe next radio telephone service which we hoped to establish would he between Australia and New Zealand, which project was now under consideration. D was merely a matter of repeating the process now in operation between Sydney and London. Then would lollow n service between Australia aucl the United States and the rest of the world. , , T> . Mr Fisk added that while the British experts claimed that the AngloAustralian service could not be accomplished, we in Australia always maintained that it was possible, as we proved last night. Traffic on the wireless telephone service between Australia and London is already heavy. There were 24 calls at £6 each last night, and the maximum number has been booked for to-night. Applications for calls at the London end are equally satisfactory.
