Islands
THE New Zealand Government has in stalled in Wellington a new short wave radio transmitter which willl. improve the service to the Pacific Islands..; Aerials still have to be erected, and it willl. probably be six months before transmis sion commences.
It is stated that chief purpose of thes broadcasts will be to keep Islands peoplesa au fait with events in New Zealand and too maintain a closer link of interests betweenc the Dominion and Pacific territories. Thea new station is expected to be on the ain for six hours each night but, as local times vary in the Islands groups, the areas which will be reached will be divided intoo sectors, each of which will receive a two hour session.
