AUSTRALIANS ARE
NOT RADIO FANS
nv United Press Leased Wire

PHILADELPRIA, April 22.-
Radio thus far has failed to make
much of an impression on a vast
continent in the South Pacific ocean
-Asutralia. There is only one
broadcasting station on that CONT
nen-, la4zabed at Sydney, and it does
not reach beyond the Sydney neigh
borhoOd.
This is the state of affairs as
regards radio in Australia, accord
ing to j. Graeme Balsillie of Mel
bourne, director of radio and tele-
graph communications for the
Australian government, now in
America.

any kissing groups here and there who misled

Railing against any government that has ever
supported any sort of military establishment is not
height of folly and cruelty unjust to the thousands
of who have gone into with breaking hearts
