BROADCASTING
TOO MANY STATIONS AH EXPERT'S VIEW Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright, SYDNEY. June 15. (Received June 16, at 11 a.m.) Giving evidence before the Wireless Commission, Mr E. T. Fisk (managing director of Amalgamated Wireless, Ltd.) said there were too many broadcasting stations in New South Wales, and they interfered with each other. He did not advocate a curtailment, but he favored tho allocation of wavelengths, relative power, and tho proper placing of stations. He said the difficulties in connection with wireless to-day arose through the miscellaneous growth of stations. Everybody desiring to do publicity broadcasting wanted his own station. He would like to see an arrangement made whereby everybody with a legitimate desire to broadcast for publicity purposes could do so through the broadcasting service being available to all on equal terms. There must bo a limit somewhere, and that should be on the number of stations rather than on tho number of people entitled to broadcast. lie suggested that tho ownership of stations should be vested in the Federal Parliament.
