Radio Exhibition

Prospect of Abandonment H are informed on good authority that there is a prospect of the 19382 Wellington Radio Exhibition being abandoned. Plans had been laid for this to be held in April to initiate the commencement of the Winter season. In the opinion of the "Radio Record,"

the abandonment of this exhibition would be most regrettable. Four exhibitions have been held in Wellington and each has been markedly successful. The first was inaugurated in 1927 by the "Radio Record," acting in conjunction with the Radio Trade. That enterprise proved highly successful-so much so that in subsequent years the Trade itself was happy to undertake the sole organisation and responsibility for the venture. Each of the three subsequent ventures proved very successful in presenting to the public, not only an effective display of the new radio sets available for purchase, but in providing an attractive entertainment for all. interested in radio. The benefit of the function did not begin and end with the

attendance at the Town Hall, because | on each occasion important relays were given from the Town Hall to listeners in general, thus concentrating popular attention upon radio with definite reactions to the benefit of Radio and the Trade throughout the province. If it is at all possible for the matter to be reconsidered we believe that it would pay to do so.
