DESPITE COLOR EARLY TELEVISION STANDARDS HOPED FOR
Notwithstanding the apprehension the industry seems to have that there may be delay and added cost if Chairman James L.
Fly, Chairman of the Federal Communications Commission insists that the rebirth of television be in color instead of black and white, W. R. G. Baker, of the General Electric Company, Chairman of the National Television System Committee still expressed the hope that television standards could be completed by January 1. Already several panels, or committees, have completed plans for undertaking this work. Certain of the panels whose work involves consideration of color and the possible application of Frequency Modulation still have a great deal of work ahead of them. Among the panels yet to be heard from and the tentative completion dates are :
Panel 1 System Analysis, November 1 Panel 2 Subjective Aspects, November 1 Panel 7 Picture Resolution, November 1 Panel 8 Synchronization, November 15 Panel 9 Radiation Polarization, December 1
"The sixteen members of the National Television Systems Committee represent manufacturing companies, research organizations, and utilities actively engaged in, or closely associated with the radio industry. Of the fifteen voting members the Chairman having no vote eight represent companies associated with the Radio Manufacturers ’ Association. There is, in addition, one representa¬ tive of the Radio Manufacturers’ Association of Canada, Ralph A. Hackbush, who acts as an observer only", Mr. Baker reported.
"The detailed analytical work is handled by nine panels consisting of 138 members representing 41 companies or organizations. Of these 41 companies, 19 represent receiver manufacturers; 5 repre¬ sent manufacturers producing both transmitters and receivers; 9 represent universities or research organizations; 4, utilities;
