American Methods Were Too Brisk
RADIO CONFERENCE MANY DELEGATES PEEVED By Cable.—Press Association. — Copyright. Reed. 9.5 a.m. WASHINGTON, Wed The foreign delegates attending the International Radio Conference have expressed considerable dissatisfaction with the rapidity with which the officers were elected. The election as president of Mr. H. C. Hoover, United States Secretary of Commerce, was accomplished so rapidly by acclamation that many delegates were not aware of what happened until Mr. Hoover began his speech of acceptance. After that, Mr. Hoover swiftly announced the various other tentative appointments. After the session closed, the corridors buzzed with excited conversations in half a dozen different languages. The delegates warmly expressed their views regarding the rapidity of the American methods. They declared that the rules of international courtesy will prevent the raising of objections to making these tentative appointments permanent.— A. and N.Z.
