The Mayor's Tribute
When informed of the ZB Exhibition plans, Mr. T. C. A. Hislop, Mayor of Wellington, and Chairman of the Exhibition, expressed pleasure at the excellent contribution which Commercial Broadcasting will make towards the success of the Exhibition. "It is very gratifying,’ he said, "and we are grateful not only for this practical expression of goodwill and co-operation, but for the excellent service which Mr. Scrimgeour and the officials of the Commercial Broadcasting Service have already given us. There is no doubt that the Mobile Broadcasting Station will be of very great interest to visitors, and the attractively planned lounge — a very happy thought-will be much admired and appreciated. I think that tuning in to 5ZB, the Exhibition Station, will become a pleasant and useful habit. "As announced, the Exhibition will, despite the war, definitely go on, and will open as originally intended, on November 8. In our decision to carry on we are greatly encouraged by the support of exhibitors and all associated with this great national event, and above ail, by the certain knowledge that despite all the difficulties we have to face we will be able to show to the people of New Zealand a display which will give them pride in their country and inspiration in the national tasks that confront the British peoples to-day."
