WIRELESS TELEGRAPHY.

THE BERLIN CONVENTION.

Electric Telegraph—Press Association. Copyright. London, July 23. Mr Henniker Heato-n has appealed to Mr Sydney Buxton, PostmasterGeneral, to postpone adhesion to the Radio Telegraphic Convention concluding at Berlin last year. Tlie Times suggests the convening of a subsidiary Imperial Conference to inquire into the Convention, so that the Empire may act as a corporate whole, whether it adheres to the Convention or abstains from doing so. An international conference, held at Berlin last October to consider matters in connection with wireless telegraphy, made a convention settling the arrangements to be applied to all stations open to general wireless telegraphic service between the coast and vessels at sea -which are established by the Powers on their or on the ships flying their flag. One of the features of the conference was the opposition to the Marconi monopoly. The British Government in December appointed a Select Committee to consider the convention.
