RADIO TELEPHONE SERVICE.

EXTENSION TO NEW ZEALAND. PROJECT UNDER CONSIDERATION. <tWIM» JMB3 ASBOCIATIOR—BT EIiROMtfO ItBLEGIUBB—COPtBtOBT.) (Received May Ist, 9.15 p.m.) SYDNEY, May 1. Mr B. T. Fisk, managing director of Amalgamated Wireless, Limited, discussing the success of the radio telephone service, said that there, was an even more wonderful age before tis. The next radio telephone service which we hoped to establish would be between Australia and New Zealand, which pro* ject was now under consideration. It was merely a matter of repeating the process now in operation between Sydney and London. Then would follow a service between Australia and the United States and the rest of the world. Mr Fisk added that while the British experts claimed that the AngloAustralian service could not be accomplished, wo in Australia always maintained that it was possible, as we proved last night. TRAFFIC ALREADY HEAVY. (Heceived May Ist, 8 p.m.) SYDNEY, May 1. 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.
