DEALER FINED FOR INSTALLING NO LICENSED WIREMAN From Our Own Correspondent HAMILTON, Friday. Charged -with installing electric conductors at premises at Orini, and with installing conductors and accessories in a shop at Huntly, John Alexander Malcolm Young, a radio dealer, was fined £lO and costs and convicted and ordered to pay costs on the second charge, in the Magistrate’s Court today. The Crown solicitor, Mr. H. T. Gillies, said defendant installed a wireless set operated from a heating plug in a house. A power board official had found the connection to be in a dangerous condition. Malcolm had also made an unauthorised connection in his shop at Huntly. It was fortunate that the house and shop had not been destroyed by fire as a result of defendant’s work. As far as the first charge was concerned, the defendant said the work was only temporary and he intended getting a firm to complete it. The magistrate said the offence was a grave one and not without danger to life and property.
