Europe's 267 broadcasting stations will be assigned to new wave lengths next June 1, in much the same way that stations in the United States were reallocated by the Federal Radio Com- mission last November 11. ‘The Ruropean radio administrators have drawn upon the experience of the American commission and are basing most of their reallocation, known offi- cially as “The Prague Plan,” on the use of exclusive cleared channels equally distributed among the continental countries. Detalled reports of the radio confer- ence held in the Czechosolavkian capital early in April have been brought back to this country by Laurens Whittemore and Gerald C. Gross, technical advisors | 1 of the American delegation. The chair- man of the delegation, William D. Ter- rell, radio chief of the Department of Commerce, has remained in Europe as a delegate to the safety-of-life-at-sea conference now-in session in London. The two American radio experts re- port that, aside from revising the Euro- pean broadcasting situation, the Prague conference left most of the matters in which this country is vitally interested to be settled at the session of the Inter- national Radio Technical Consulting Committee to be held at The Hague next September. The United States was not deeply concerned with the con- tinental broadcasting problem. but the American delegates were frequently called upon to narrate this country’s experience in reorganizing its program radio structure. European Air a Babel, ‘The European radio men, according to Mr. Gross, were greatly surprised that the Federal Radio Commission under- took to allocate all the 600 stations in this country rather than increase the width of the broadcasting band. With less than 300 stations in operation, Eu- Tope now presents a veritable babel of cross-talk in different languages. Het- erodyne howls and whistles add to the con! The Prague plan the European countries, including Rus- sia, which, with 67 stations, leads all of Europe in the amount of done. The plan provides that 139 chan- nels be cleared for exclusive use by the countries to which they are assigned. Only 15 channels are to be shared by two countries or more. The frequency upiunlomnnntmm4%hmub- cycles. ‘The United States and Canada em- loy a standard 10-kilocycle separation tween wave lengths, and the Ameri- can observers are skeptical about the probable effects of the closer European separation. The countries using ad- jacent wave lengths are so “staggered,” lx::ver. l:.::lt they expect interference 500,000,000 Served. ‘The population to be served in Eu- Tope aggregates 500,000,000 people of various nationalities. While some jeal- ousies are apparent because of the fact that certain countries are more or less covered by programs emanating from nearby countries, the delegates at the Prague recognized that there was no known method for controlling the dis- tance of the ts.
