DUTCH STATION CLOSES
To the Editor, "The Listener" Sir,- Last night (Tuesday, December 26), Station PCJ, "The Happy Station," Hilversum, Holland, announced that they were temporarily withdrawing their Tuesday evening programme for Australasia, due. to the present situation. Knowing that many listeners would have been on holiday, I take this opportunity of telling the many thousands of PCJ listeners this sad announcement. PCJ has been broadcast regularly for Australia and New Zealand, and with L. G. Wybrands at the microphone, it has been one of the most popular sessions on the shortwaves as far as New Zealand is concerned, and has a following of many thousands of listeners. Mr. Wybrands also announced that it was his last broadcast on shortwave, and so many New Zealanders lose a real friend, whose knowledge of this country, all gained through reading, made him at home when sending his happy sessions dedicated to us. I am sure I am expressing the sentiments of thousands of listeners when I say that we hope that PCJ will be back with a special session in the not too distant future. Yours etc.,
Arthur
