I WANING INTEREST, i 'FATE OF ALL NOVELTIES. (Received 3 p.™.) SYNDEY, This Day. Mr W. G. Watson, of Watson and Company, electrical engineers, ha 3 re turned to Sydney from Britain and "America. He stated it as his opinion that broadcasting abroad was on the wane. Numbers of manufacturers of wireless apparatus were closing- down. Mr Watson attributed the diminishing interest to lack of enthusiasm following all novelties and the fact that the promised improvement in entertainment programmes had not been forthcoming. A. and N.Z. A CHAMPION OF WIRELESS. INDISPENSABLE FACTOR. (Received 32.50 p.m.) SYDNEY, This Day. Mr J. A'. Taylor, president of the Association for developing wireless between Australia and New Zealand, deprecated the remarks of Mr Watson as opposed to the facts, because the number of listeners-in in England had trebled during the past twelve months, us shown by Sir L. WorthingtonEvans' figures. Mr Taylor objects to the tendency to describe wireless as a novelty like the gramophone or suchlike instruments. It is more like the telephone and is rapidly becoming an indispensable factor in everyday life. —A. and N.Z.
