There are now 700,000 licensed broadcast listeners throughout Australia, according to an announcement made by the Director of Postal Services, Mr 11. P. Brown. In Australia every owner of a receiving set must possess a licence, and the fees arc devoted to erection, maintenance and provision of programmes of the National Broadcasting Stations. Naturally, there are radio pirates, but the Postmaster-General’s Department has an army of wireless inspectors. During 1934 they were responsible for 3000 persons being convicted for operating unlicensed receivers, and their fines and costs amounted to £7OOO. Children’s Gum Boots for the wet mornings, sizes 4-9 1/6, size 10 1/9 pair; also the latest “Wonderwelt” Shoe for children, on the new footform last. F. Thorp and Co., Napier and Hastings.
