WARNING TO RADIO "FANS”

Receiving Extension Requires Licence

AN important ruling in regard

to radio receivers and listeners was made by Mr. R. A. D. Forrest at the Central Magis- tracy this morning, when a man named Chan Chiu-ai of Queen's Road Central, ground floor, was summoned for being in posses sion of radio apparatus without the necessary licence.

Chan is a sub-tenant of the ground floor in Queen's Road Central, and a loud spraker was discovered on his premises by wireless Inspectors on November 8. This speaker is an ex- tension from the principal tenant's licensed receiver.

Defendant admitted the offence, but caid he did not think it necessary to have a separate licence.

A fine of $12 was imposed.

Mr. Forrest remarked that if an ex- tension was made from a receiver to that of a sub-tenancy or to another
