8.8. C. EMPIRE SERVICES
DIRECTOR'S VISIT TO ASCERTAIN FAULTS {Per United Press Association.] AUCKLAND, August 6. In what measure the Empire short wave services meet the needs of listeners in New and the degree of their shortcomings, if any, are the main reasons behind the visit of Mr J. Beresford Clark, director of Empire services of the British Broadcasting Corporation, who arrived by the Monterey from Suva, and was met by Professor J. Shelley, Director of Broadcasting in New Zealand. Mr Clark said he found that in the Pacific Islands the reception of short wave programmes from England was rather variable. Although Mr Clark will be in New Zealand for only a fortnight, he will in that time visit various districts in both islands and discuss with officials and others the Empire short wave services and their general efficiency from the Dominion standpoint. He is to leave by the Wanganella from-Auckland on August 18 for Sydney.
