"The demand for private radio systems is such l hut these fneilitie*, even in the ( use i)l public services, must be restricted to services not capable of adequate provision by my Department's land line system," stated the Postmaster-General, I lie Hon. F. Jones, in a letter received in last night's meeting of the council ni' the Auiomobilu Association (Auckl.i nd). The council had written to the .Minister in connection with the installation of two-way radio equipment in p,Wi'nl cars. J 'rm isinn C) f considerable power would be necessary nt the mobile station, continued the letter, and it. was not anticipated that even the comparatively powerful station to be installed at Musirk Point would be satisfactorily received by a mobile receiver in outlying <1 istricts. The .Minister added that he knew of no two-way mobile service extending over an extended area by any Australian autonmliile association. "I suggest that the association carry out losts to determine the value of such a service," concluded the Minister, "and when the service from Musick Point is available the association will be notified."
