With Australia

PORT MORESBY residents may now, if they wish, spend an hour each Sunday morning chatting to their friends in Aus tralia (at 10/- per minute), and through Australia, to the world.

The regular daily radio-telephone service between Australia and Moresby has now been extended to take in an extra hour on Sundays between 9.45 a.m. and 10.45 a.m.

Service began on January 27.

P-NG radio-telephone service, like the Australian mainland service, can now provide connections with the Soviet Union. Residents of the Territory may therefore ring up friends in Russia. Whether they get any answer is, of course, another matter.
