MEXICAN STATION
AUGURS CROWD|NG.
"GentIeman's Agreement" of
U. S. and Canada May
Be Affected.
BY MARTIN CODEL.

Mexico may drop a fly in the ONT
ment that has salved the radio rela-
tions of the United States and Canada.
The erection of new broadcasting sta
lions in Mexico augurs more crowding
of the wave lengths and consequently
new sources of interference in the North
American radio structure. Another
North American radio conference may
be required if Mexico insists upon a
sovereign right to use the radio waves
and to employ powers that will cause
inter American interference.
The Federal Radio Commission has
received a report that an unnamed
American citizen has secured a conces-
sion to build broadcasting station at
Matamoros, Just across the border from
Brownsville, Tex. The State Depart
ment has been asked to check the re-
port. Doubt of its authenticity is ex-
pressed because of the Mexican law for
bidding alien ownership of radio sta
tons.
Another report, which is official, gives
an account of a new Mexican broad
casting station being erected at Rey-
nosa, also in the Rio Grande Valley,
for the express purpose of serving the
radio audiences of the United States as
well as of Mexico and other countries
of Latin America.
This report comes from the Dallas Of
flee of the radio supervisor of the De-
partment of Commerce. Although the
stations power is given as only 500
watts, it is described as the largest in
Mexico. Its wave length is not stated
II it employs a channel used in almost
any part of the Southern United States
interference is regarded as practically
inevitable.
The station will begin broadcasting
very soon, originating programs in
studios maintained in six cities of the
Rio Grande Valley, the report says. It's
call letters will be XIBC Announce
ments will be made in both Spanish and
English.
Neither Mexico or Cuba are parties to
the gentlemen's agreement which was
effected by the United States and Cam
ada for the purpose of dividing wave

lengths available for program broad
casting. They did not participate be-
cause their stations have EMPLOYED ex-
tremely low powers and have caused
little or no interference, even though
they operate on wave lengths used in
the two larger countries to the north.
There are only So channels available
for broadcasting, and the confusion that
exists upon many of them because Of

division have been heard In Canada, but
these have been held In allegiance pend
ing plans to reorganize the Dominion's
broadcasting system under government
control. II Canada demands more chan
for both exclusive and shared channels.
1t means they will have to be taken
from those now allotted to the United
States.
