UNLICENSED RADIO
COURT WILL NOT CONVICT (From Our Own Correspondent) MORRINSVILLE, To-day. Mr. C. F. W. Platts, S.M., has given his reserved judgment in the case against P. Petry for operating an unlicensed radio set. The magistrate, in dismissing the information, stated that it would be unwise to convict under the existing regulations. Moreover, it would appear that the penalty provided by the regulations was ultra vires.. Two similar prosecutions were also dismissed.
