Teleradio In Gilbert Is.

RADIO telephony has been introduced into the Gilbert Islands by the Lon don Missionary Society and the Roman Catholic Sacred Heart Mission.

For the former, Amalgamated Wire less has set up a teleradio at Beru, and for the latter a similar equipment at Tarawa.

These stations enable the missionaries to speak with the radio station at Ocean Island, thus establishing contact by wireless with the rest of the world.

The teleradio at Beru also works with the L.M.S. vessel “John Williams”, which visits the Society’s various mission fields.
