The Radio corporation has entdred its bid for delivery of apparatus and equipment for the) new high-power wireless station which Sweden is now build ing on Its west coast. In Interview with the Stockholm Press, Mr. Alexandersson, a well known radio expert, Explained that only an extremely limited number of trans-Atlantic radio stations could be operated successfully with out serious intetference. He said that various countries had already reserved most of the wave-It njrtli:: suitable for trans-Atlantic communi cation, and only a few vrnm U ft. The wave-lengths best iniu-ii for such long distance transmissions, are between 10.000 and 20,000 me ters. The wave-lengths between 11.500 and 17.000 meters have been reserved, while Poland has appllrsl for the 18,000 meter length. Mr. AlexandeTssos declared tha'. in his opinio radio traffic should be monopoltaed by the varieu gov ernments of the world. Othrrvi, he said, (h confusion i tk sir will twoome so great that ell radio service may ultimately be rendered I ni possible.
