COSTS MULTIPLIED
RADIO EXTENSIONS IN HOTELS AND ON TAXIS LICENSE FOR EACH / [Per United Press Association.] TIMARU, August 21. Taxi drivers and hotelkeepers in Timaru will shortly have an additional burden to bear through the enforcement of regulations covering radio licenses. Taxis with radios will be obliged to pay the full radio license irrespective of w-hether they have private radio sets or not. Hotels which have a number of extensions from a radio set will also have to take out a license for each extension. If there are five or more extensions they can take out a multiple license, which would prove a much cheaper system. Private houses with extensions are not affected, unless the house is sub-
let and extensions used for tenants. The regulations wore gazetted in 1932, but have not been enforced.
