EMPIRE RADIO SERVICE
MR. MARCUSE’S SCHEME
FIRST RELAY NEXT MONTH By Cable.—Press Association.—Copyright LONDON, Wednesday. Air. Gerald Alarcuse, the Caterliam amateur wireless enthusiast, who proposes to broadcast British programmes to the Dominions, says he hopes his re-equipped station will be ready for the first relay next week. In an interview, Air. Alarcuse said that when the British Copyright Holders’ Association heard of his intentions it warned him against an infringement of its rights. He appreciated its claims, but pointed out that his experiment was not a commercial one, but, on the contrary, an expensive hobby. Air. Marcuse is to meet the holders of copyrights again, when he hopes to persuade them to waive their claims until his experiments shall have proved the possibilities of regular transmissions to the Dominions. A refusal of his request will not deter him, because plenty of music on which there is no copyright is available. —Sun.
