88. Mr. WELLOCK

asked the Post-master-General what income has been derived from the Government's beam wireless telegraph system during the current financial year to the latest available date?

Viscount WOLMER

For the period from the 1st April to the 31st December last the gross receipts of the Post Office from the Imperial Beam Wireless Services are estimated at about £358,000. The credit balance in respect of the same period (before charging depreciation or interest on capital) is estimated at about £152,000.

Lieut.-Commander KENWORTHY

Will the Prime Minister's attention be drawn to these figures of the results of a nationalised service?
