PLANS STRONG STAR, WASHINGTON, RADIO DELEGATION Mexico City Conference May Find Rival Interests Far From Agreement. BY MARTIN CODEL. Whatever disposition the Roosevelt administration makes of the domestic control and regulation of radio in its economy reorganization plans, Ameri- can radio listeners and broadcasters can country will be strongly represented at the forthcoming North American wave length conference in Mexico City. Opposing interests in this country, notably the maritime users of radio and the program broadcasters, have not yet reconciled their differences, and at this writing seem to be far from agreement on the question of widening the broad- cast band to embrace more wave lengths to accommodate the demands of other North American countries for expanded services. Once an agreement is reached, how- ever, the American radio diplomatists are bound to have the wholehearted support of President Roosevelt and Secretary of State Hull. In any case, & | definite policy on international radio | may be looked for—something that was entirely lacking in the previous admin- istration, due to a complication of politics, inattention and indecision. Stations Beyond Border. For example, the establishment of !)crhnpa a dozen new broadcasting sta- lons on the Mexican side of the border, openly financed by Americans, was never protested by the Republican State Department. Most of these stations were built by men who had been ruled off the air in this country or who otherwise could not get licenses from the Radio Commission to operate. Notable examples were—and are— Dr. John R. Brinkley, the deposed Kansas medico-broadcaster, and Nor- man T. Baker, who used his Iowa sta- tion to adverfise questionable cancer cures until ordered off the air. Both became candidates for public office, and in the case of Dr. Brinkley the Republi- cans obviously feared he might become Governor of Kansas. He failed last year, though he came within an ace of election two years before. Both went to Mexico and built powerful stations just D. C, MONDAY, MARCH 27, 1933. of broadcast stations, but their laws were circumvented '.hm%h licenses to Mexican corporations. e stations were—and ar inly estab- lished to reach the revenues from American advertisers. At Mexico City the question to be decided is the ition of the limited number of wave lengths to the United States, Canada, Mexico and Cuba. The conference was scheduled for early April, but may be held later because of the press of other domestic problems here. Before retiring from office Pres- ident Hoover named Judge E. O. Sykes, who has been rea| ted by President Roosevelt, to the Radio Commission and who was the American chairman at the Madrid conference last year, and Sen- ator Wallace White, jr., Republican, of Maine, as the American delegates to go to_Mexico. Within the United States the quarrel is between broadcasters seeking more of the longer wave lengths (below 550 kilocycles) for program services and the Navy and shipping interests, op- ing such widening of the broadcast md. The latter are willing to con- cede the shorter waves (from 1,500 to 1,650 kilocycles) to broadcasting, but want the longer waves held inviolate. These channels are not acceptable to broadcasters because of the limited service ranges they offer. However this issue is decided, it is certain that the United States and Canada will have a common cause at Mexico City. They are the chief users| of the available wave lengths and they | have entered into agreements for their | division that up tonow have been quite | satisfactory. Moreover. both countries CASH For any EMERGENCY or other helpful parpose You may obtain a loan of $300 or less on our monthly repay- ment plan.

Competent observers believe that | formal or informal protests to the‘ Mexican government would have pre- vented the erection of the Brinkley, 8405 Georgia Ave Silver Spring, Md. have seen some of their stations suffer serious interference from the American - backed Mexican staticns which have “squatted” on or in between American-Canadian wave lengths with- out let or hindrance. Mexico, of course, has s sovereign claim to a share of the broadcast wave lengths, and this is precisely the rea- son the American broadcasters want some of the longer waves made avall- able. The Americans are 3 additional channels below 550 o= cycles, which would enable this country to enter into “swap” ts with Mexico and Cuba, if not Canada, on an entirely amicable basis. Without more waves, Mexico and Cuba demand channels already in use in United States, with a consequent curtailment of services in those countries and pos- sibly even another reallocation smong the 600 American and the 75 Canadian stations. The maritime interests argue their need for the long-wave channels, and point out that newly designed receivers or extra sets of colls would be needed to tune in the long-wave channels. The broadcasters reply that Europe is using the long waves successfully and that Canadian and American listeners would soon equip themselves to tune them in if they knew these channels were carry- ing desirable programs. Whether Mexico would be satisfled to take the long waves can only be con- jectured.
