Numerous Aerials FUNGLAND'S Postmaster-General, speaking recently at a London dinner, remarked that the short-wave station at Rugby could at a moment’s notice broadcast a message 80 DOWwerfully that it could be picked up practically by every ship in any part of the world. "If you visit Rugby," he continued, "you will find an aerial system pointing to the United States; a few yards, and there is a section plotted out in which there will be an aerial system pointing to Canada. A few yards in another direction and there is a system pointing to South Africa, and @ few more yards away one to India, and again one to Australia, , "In this way, when the system is complete, the world voice of Great Britain will speak from Rugby nof only to the Dominions but to all the more important countries of the earth."
