The United States High Commissioner (Keyes) reported that the question or Austrian communications continued to absorb the time of the Allied Commission for Austria during the first quarter of 1950. One of the questions referred to the Allied Council by the Executive Committee concerned the redistribution of radio frequencies for Austrian broadcasting stations. The United States, the United Kingdom and French High Commissioners recognized the necessity for additional wave lengths in Austria and, with one exception, gave full support to the proposal of the director general of the Austrian Post and Telegraph Administration made in January 1950 allocating new wave lengths. The Soviet High Commissioner demanded that Austrian radio stations be limited to the four frequencies allotted by the European broadcasting convention held in Copenhagen in 1948, which had been rejected as inadequate in number and of improper wave length for mountainous terrain by Austria. After considerable discussion, during which no agreement was reached, the question was dropped.
