N.Z. WIRELESS.
BROADCASTING SCHEME. FOR ALL DISTRICTS. WELLINGTON, July 21. The Telegraph Department is considering regulations for allowing wireless broadcasting, but no scheme has actually been promulgated, yet wireless receivers will have to be used, and already there are some 850 in the country. The idea is to divide the Dominion into a number of districts, say eight, and to give a license in each to one company, or, at most, two operating on alternate days, to transmit matter in the shape of news, music, weather reports, and so on. This will only be allowed at night, from five to cieven. The officials do not believe it will be regarded for some time as much more than a toy. They will probably stipulate that only British machines shall be employed.
