RADIO CONVENTION
TECHNICAL SERVICE QUESTIONS PERMANENT COMMITTEE. BRITISH DIPLOMACY TRIUMPHS (By Electric Telegraph.—Copyright.) Received October 15, 9.55. a.in. WASHINGTON, Oct. 14.
The creation of a permanent international consulting committee to consider all technical and allied questions relating to radio services was approved by the technical committee of the Radio Conference by a vote of 24 to four over the opposition of the United States, Canada, India and Roumania. British diplomacy triumphed when a special section of the conference, dealing with the Cortina report, decided to defer all consideration of the report until the Brussels conference in 1930.
The committee decided that the report could not legally be considered by this conference, also that delegates were equally empowered to constitute themselves a section of the International Telegraph Convention. The Australian delegation strongly supported the view that no alteration should be made at present regarding the use of ten letter code words for international cable and wireless traffic. Mr Brown, in an interview, said that the decision was of the highest importance, and should be received with satisfaction in the Commonwealth.— A.P.A. and Sun.
