From the South Americas comes the following item:—"The Post and Telegraph authorities of the Argentine Republic have cancelled all transmitting licences and broadcasting stations which have hitherto been granted this concession must now fle a new application for a permit to radíate radio programmes. This measure has been taken to enable the Government to examine each individual case on its own merits and thus secure a better control over the stations. At Buenos Aires there exists only one official studio, the one owned and operated ' by the municipal authorities of the capital, but the city possesses, in addition, sixteen other transmitters, all privately owned. There are also 34 stations located in various other cities and towns, but many are of low power and their service includes unsatisfactory broadcasts and in some instances of a questionable nature" The Post and Telegraph authorities of the Argentine might pop over to Shanghai some spare afternoon; they'd find quite a spot of similar work waiting for them here!
