A WIRELESS PROJECT.
BRITAIN TO AUSTRALIA. ARGUMENT AGAINST PLAN. By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright. Received June 26, 11.40 p.m. Melbourne, June 26. Mr. Brennan, a member of the House of Representatives, who was appointed last December to a committee to investigate the proposed. agreement between the Commonwealth and the Amalgamated Wireless, Ltd., for a wireless service between Britain and Australia, has submitted his minority report. He states he is opposed to the agreement, as there is no authority to justify the belief that such a service could be maintained as an effective instrument of commercial communication. He recommends that the Commonwealth should control its own wireless departent, pending the result of trials now being prosecuted in various parts of the world. Mr. Brennan adds that the proposal is a gamble, in which the Commonwealth stands to lose heavily, or in the alternative will share in remote and doubtful gains, with private financiers.— Aus.-N.Z- Cable Assn.
