cluded in these figures.
The District now has subscribed
1927 per cent of its overall quota
Of $113 100000, for a total of $685.
100000. Corporation purchases led

Turkey Is Disturbed
by Report Reds Seek
Dardane||es Change
(See Constantine BroDn's Column
on Editorial Page
BY the Associated Press,

BY the Associated Press.
ANKARA, June q. - Turkey
disturbed by reports that Russia
is seeking modification of the
Montreux Convention fixing the
status of the Dardanelles, looked
toward the United States and
Britain today for a hint of their
reaction.
While no concrete developments
are expected before the impending
Big Three meeting, it is believed in
Ankara that Turkey will sound out
opinion In both Washington and
London in the meantime. 1t is eX-
pected that, Foreign Minister Hasan
Saka may stop off in Britain for
talks with Prime Minister Churchill
and Foreign Secretary Anthony
Eden on his way home from the
San Francisco Security Conference.
Official Quarters Silent.
Few developments affecting Tur-
key since the start Of the European
war have stirred Ankara so much
as the rumors which have been cur
rent for the last 48 hours. While
official quarters have remained ST.
lent, it is possible to state on re-
liable authority;
During discussions preliminary to
negotiation of a new Turkish Rus
sian pact of friendship and non-
aggression in Moscow, the Russians
raised for discussion the questions
of the proprietorship of the North
eastern Turkish province of kars
and the possibility of making
changes in the Montreux Conven-
ton which would give the Soviet
Union a favored spot with respect
to control of the Dardanelles.
No demands have been made as
such. The questions were inter-
jected into the general discussions
of the framework within which the
new Turkish h-Soviet pact will take
shape.
Question of Bases Raised.
Other questions such as the pos
sibility of permanent Soviet bases
on Turkish soil may also have been
raised, 1t was reported, but there
was no substantiation.
The Turks take the view that the
Montreux Convention, which has
given Turkey supervision of the
strait since 1886, was an interna-
tionally negotiated instrument, and
can be altered only through
multilateral agreement OF the great
powers.
AS for Kars-which Russia ceded
to Turkey in 1921 as a gesture of
good will-the Turks feel that If
Russia should seriously seek the re-
turn of this area the San Fran
cisco Charter would give Turkey
clear grounds for protesting before
the United Nations.

I'm Radio Band
lis Shifted Into
Higher Frequencies
By the Associated Press.

BY tho Associated Press.
The Federal Communications Com
mission decided today that frequency
modulation radio should be broad
cast in the 92-106 megacycles band
This ALLEGATION is higher than the
84-102 megacycles band proposed in
the commissions earlier report, and
means that frequency modulation
must move up in the radio spectrum
from its present position of 44-50
megacycles.
The decision ends a month-long
controversy between FEC and
spokesmen for the FIN industry. The
industry had argued that it was not
necessary to move FM into higher
frequencies, and thus out of range of
present FIN receiving sets. The
commission said such a move was
necessary to minimize certain inter-
ference factors.
Although present FIN sets are not
constructed to receive broadcasts on
the 92-l06 megacycles band, the
commission has demonstrated a
converter which it said would enable
present sets to be used. Future FM
sets will have to be constructed 10
conform to the new ALLEGATION.
The decision made final the COM
missions allocations for all radio
services in the 44-108 megacycle
band. Other ALLEGATIONS above 25
megacycles were made previously.
Following are the ALLEGATIONS an
