Canton, Apr, 4.
With all preparations nearing completion, the Japanese authorities here expect to begin broadcasting from Canton in the near future, probably within a week. The call-sign of tne station, which is said to be practical: ready, will be HDOK, and all broadcasts will be on short waves.
According to a tentative pru-gramme, broadcasts will be made in English and Chinese, and will include lectures, news—foreign, loca! and on the Sino-Japanese war—and musical recordings.
The strength of the station is saic to be 780 kilowatts.—Reuter.
