EMPIRE WIRELESS.
FIRST-CLASS STATION IN ENGLAND. London, March 5. Mr. Bonar Law informed Mr. -P. A. Hurd, in answer to a question in the House of Commons, that the Government had decided that it was necessary in the interests of national security that there should be a wireless station in England capable of communicating with the dominions, and wholly operated by. the State. Such a station Would be erected as early as possible, and would also be available commercially. He added that since the late Government had decided on a State-supported wireless chain, it was now considered unnecessary to longer exclude private enterprise from participating in Empire wireless communication. Licenses should be granted for the erection of wireless stations in England for the dominions, colonies, and foreign communication, subject to conditions necessary to secure British control.—(A. and N.Z.)
