Included in the wireless apparatus, which will be subject to registrations, are items such as electronic valves capable of an anode dissipation exceeding 10 watts, which include valves used in speech amplifiers, public-address systems, and picture plants.
Regulations gazetted last night authorise the remission of practising fees in respect of law practitioners who become members of the armed forces. They also empower the remission of the annual solicitors' fidelity guarantee fund contributions in similar cases.
