WORLD BROADCAST.
OF ROYAL MARRIAGE. Received October 29, 1.5 p.m. LONDON, Oct. 28. At least 30,000,000 people will hear the wedding service of the Duke of Kent and Princess Marima at Westminster Abbey on November 29, the ceremony being broadcast to all the Empire stations, the United States, and parts of Europe. There will first be a running commentary on the scenes outside the Abbey and this will gradually fade into the service from a special control room, which is being constructed in the Henry VII Chapel, from which the engineers will control the broadcast. The Duke of Kent will visit Daventry on Monday to see the station from which the Dominions and the colonies will hear the service.
