Abstract
THE idea of forming an International Commission for the scientific study of questions relating to wireless telegraphy arose from a conversation between Prof. Schmidt and Mr. Goldschmidt, at the International Time Conference in Paris in 1912. Representatives from various countries held a meeting in Brussels in October, 1913, at which a provisional committee was appointed and the general lines of the scheme for the organisation of the working were drawn up. It was decided to send out from the high-power station at Laeken, near Brussels, radio-telegraphic emissions at regular intervals, and that these emissions should be observed and measured by experimenters in Belgium and in other countries.
