Abstract :
The radio bills known as the White Bill in the House and the Dill Bill in the Senate, both of which failed of enactment in the last session of Congress, are being sent to the members of the Conference Committee from both the House and Senate, and a meeting has been called for November in an effort to iron out the differences between these bills and to prepare a measure on which it is hoped both houses can agree early in the next session. In the meantime the Department of Commerce is continuing limited control of radio through the Bureau of Navigation. Technical problems concerning the development of the radio art from a scientific standpoint are centered in the radio laboratory of the Bureau of Standards.
