NEW RADIO ERA.
! CHEAPER COMMUNICATION. SHORT - WAVE SYSTEM. LONDON. Dec. 6. The Capo Times describes the establish j ment of direct wireless between Capetown i and Poldhu (Cornwall), as meaning not . only the definite opening of a new era 1 in Empire communications, but also probI ably the rapid triumph of cheap short i wave wireless, over the costly high-power i system, which up to the present has been I thought to be essential for long distance 1 communication. ! The newspaper says: —"Wireless is likely i to be a very cheap form of communication '' in the near future. It is therefore in- ! creasingly important that no bureaucratic ! restrictions should be placed on wireless, ! which would obstruct the benefits of free ! competition between wireless and cables. i "The time is ripe," adds the newsI paper, "for an impartial revision of the ! British wireless policy."
