RADIO NEW ZEALAND
Sir,-The Broadcasting Service appears to have made a good job of our shortwave addition to the broadcasting service. I picked it up on the 31metre band, and it came through without any fading away. I was rather .surprised at the good reception, as Australian shortwave stations. fade away quite a lot, whereas the BBC and other European and American stations keep fairly constant in reception. I am one of the many who will sincerely hope, now we have this link with the outside world, that it will be used to develop a greater understanding between us and other nations, especially those nations with whom we differ ideologically. It is only by knowing and understanding one another that we can ever hope for the attainment of the real brotherhood of man, to which so much lip-service has been given in the past. Science has now reduced the great distances of the past, which kept nations, even those adjoining us, from knowing and sp standing anything of one another, that we are to all intents and purpose saad next door neighbours, and can speak to each other, we should take every opportunity to make friendly advances.
