CONTROL IN AUSTRALIA
In a broadcast address in Australia the Minister of Works (Mr Jones) expressed the hope that the PostmasterGeneral’s Department, which controlled the whole of tho radio activities, and had exercised that control benevolently, would continue to be so exercised. The public would be the better served if reasonable freedom were allowed to all broadcasting stations. A further evidence of the important part of which the unsubsidised stations had performed was in providing Australia with the right class of entertainment. It would be difficult to forecast the future of wireless—the grestest wonder of the world—but the radio stations had overcome the great handicap of land settlement with its loneliness. Television was just round the corner, and its development would proceed us radio had.
