In Belgium, a series of strong editorials has been written against the suppression of the regenerative single circuit, which the Belgian government is doing in no doubtful manner. The Belgians cry out that the French, the English and the Americans all have perfect freedom to experiment; so why should a little radiation pe suppressed simply because it bothers a few people while it might lead to interesting results. The French, on the other hand, call attention to the firm and intelligent manner in which the Belgian government has met a difficult and troublesome situation. They regret that the French authorities have not had the courage to act in the same manner. In Norway, all Radio communications dealing with forest fires are given absolute priority over any other form of message whatsoever.
