ADVISORY COMMITTEE’S WORK NEW ZEALAND’S REPRESENTATIVE Press Association WELLINGTON, Today. The Prime Minister announces the appointment of Mr. M. B. Esson, second assistant, secretary to the G.P.0., as New Zealand’s representative on the Imperial Communications Advisory Committee, referred to in a message last week. Mr. Esson, who during Mr. G. MacNamara’s absence, is acting as first assistant secretary, entered the Post and Telegraph service in 1889 as an administrative officer. He has been actively connected with telegraphs and wireless, and is thoroughly familiar with all the circumstances leading up to the merger of cable and wireless interests. His new appointment is an important one from the cable user’s point of view, and it is considered that Mr. Esson is well equipped and. has the requisite knowTeuge of the details of cable and wireless communication, to enable him to examine thoroughly all proposals likely to come before the advisory committee. He will retire from the Post and Telegraph Department on completing 40 years’ service, and will probably leave for England in November next.
