Not Enemy Agents.
Defence authorities in Napier received a number of telephone calls last Thursday evening to the effect that a Morse lamp was signalling from the summit of the Sugar Loaf hill at the back of Taradale. Inquiries revealed that the flashes were not destined to be decoded by the enemy, but by Napier Home Guard members, who were co-operating with a group of the Taradale Home Guard
in signalling manoeuvres. The opinion was expressed that in such an event the movements should be notified to the public, who acted properly in reporting the matter to the correct quarters.
