TESTS FOR NATIONAL TELEVISION COMMITTEE AUTHORIZED
In line with its policy of cooperating with the National Television Standards Committee, which is endeavoring to determine standards so that the development of the television industry may go forward, the Federal Communications Commission has granted authority to operate television Station W2XBS in New York with special emission in addition to A3 emission on Channel No. 1, in order to conduct experimental tests for the Committee and the National Broadcasting Co., to not later than January 1, at which time proper standards may be arrived at.
Because of the enthusiasm of Chairman Fly with regard to
color television, additional requirements may be made so that when television is again reintroduced to the public, it may be in color instead of black and white. It is said the industry fears that if this rule is laid down for all television stations, there will be further delay as it may take longer to produce color apparatus and that the expense will be much greater.
