HAMILTON BROADCAST
STATION CLOSED THIS MORNING.
(By Telegraph.—Press Association.) Hamilton, this day. The radio station IZH at Hamilton signed off for the last time this morning as the result of the loss of the Government subsidy in June and the uncertain position engendered by the copyright claims of the gramophone record companies. The proprietors, Messrs. G. S. Anchor and Company, decided to cease transmission this morning,'although the step has been threatened for some weeks.
The decision, when announced by the station director, Mr. G. S. Anchor, this morning, came as a suprise to hundreds of listeners throughout the Waikato.
