AN excellent idea was put into practice by the Government of Fiji on July 31 when the Public Relations Officer.
Mr. L. G. Usher, went on the air at the Suva Station ZJV, and broadcast a clear and informative summary of the Papers which had been “laid on the table” of the Legislative Council during the current session.
There often is far more information of interest in these “Papers” than in a dozen debates; yet the reporters con centrate usually on the debates, and dodge the heavy task of intelligently summarising the “Papers”. Mr. Usher made an excellent job of it.
This system could be followed with ad vantage in bigger countries.
Mr. Jack Bannigan, well-known identity in the Morobe district, arrived in Sydney last month for medical treatment follow ing an unfortunate jeep accident at Lae.
Mr. Bannigan is making good progress.
