RANGE and LIVESTOCK REPORT

Continued cool weather with fire.
quent light to heavy rains in the
seventeen range states has materially
retarded the growth Of grass during
the past month. This has further
depleted the stocks of hay which are
already short. Landing is late. with
above average losses on account of

Spring range conditions in North
Dakota show some improvement over
those in March. Moisture supply is
good, but grass has made little
growth as result of low tempera-
ture. For western South Dakota
conditions are favorable with mois-
turc plentiful, but growth retarded
by cool weather. Unfavorable wealth
err in Montana during April re-
tarded grass growth, but there are
good supplies of moisture. Supplies
Of hay are very short. In Wyoming
similar conditions are reported with
grass ready to make quick growth
when warm weather sets in.
For the seventeen range states
generally. range conditions are re-
ported good to very good, with mols
turc supply ample except in west
ern and northwestern Oklahoma
western and southern Texas, and
eastern New Mexico. In Kansas and
Oklahoma favorable temperatures
have resulted lin great Improvement
in pastures. Grass is reported fiji
teen days ahead of normal. In other
states cool weather has held back
growth. California reports no rain

RADIO DELEGATES NEAR SHOWDOWN
Wireless and Wave Length Prob
 lens to Be Settled

Washington. Oct. 21 R = The allocation of exclusive wave lengths to the various radio services. the most vital question facing the in. 1 ternational radio conference now sitting here, is approaching . show i down. The main problem. which Ameri- can experts do not hesitate to say may wreck any attempt to reach a final agreement arises from the fact that European countries in general desire to reserve to broad casting a far wider band Of wave { lengths than the American delega- tion is inclined 10 grant.
 The latter base their attitude on . the fact that any increase in broad casting allocations would work to the detriment of frequencies for ship communications considera- ton which is of the utmost tmpor- tance to the American wireless in- dustry owing to the ever growing value of wireless use on shipboard. l European traffic of this kind. on tho other hand, is only slightly devel- oped and Europeans, therefore, 1t is said, would not hesitate to sacri- flee all available channels to broad- casting.
 The American delegation, after Informally consulting the desires of other countries has prepared what it considers a mean schedule of wave allocatons which 1t feels could be accepted by all.
 Under 1t the United States would agree to reserve for broadcasting all wave lengths from 200 to b45 meters and from 1850 to 1875 me- ters. All other channels from 200 to 5000 meters wolld be allotted to communication to and from ships and airships. In this way 73 per cent of the channels would be re- served for broadcasting and 77 per cent for ship and airship communi- cations.
 It is indicated that this proposal Twill receive the immediate oppoh- ton of the German delegation
 which will insist upon retention of its existing 1900 meter wave length.
 The French tendency is understood
 to be to extend the broadcastin
 belt above the 1875 meter maxi
 mum. Tie British delegation. 1t is believed. might be favorable to the
 American proposal. Tho Americans
 are said to be determined at pres ent not to accept any extensions of
 the broa adcasting belt above 1875
 meters but might tolerate an ex- pansion below 1850 meters since
 this would encroach more upon , wave lengths likely to be reserved
 for airship communications. Europeans feel upon this point
 almost as strongly as the United States feels about encroachment
 upon the ship frequencies.
 American, experts explained today
 that in offering this compromise . they intend 1t to be more of a guide for the future than a regulation tc = bc immediately applied. Reasonable ? time naturally will be allowed for 7 the changes required in existing in. : stallation and the new regulation, l are to apply especially to future constructions.
