 (c) A complete list of all new broadcast stations authorized but not yet in operation, showing with respect to each such station its call signal, location, frequency, power and antenna characteristics, the date on or before which each such station shall commence opera- tion, and the classification claimed for it under this Agreement. (d) The Governments agree that prior to the effective date of this Agreement, they will, so far as possible, resolve all conflicts that may arise between them as a result of the foregoing initial listings, and that, notwithstanding some such conflicts may remain unresolved, they will cooperate to the end that there be no delay in putting the provisions of this Agreement into full force and effect on that date. (e) In resolving conflicts in the use of clear channels, and in the listing of Class I and Class II stations, the provisions of this Agree- Post, p. 1020. ment and particularly of Appendix I shall be controlling. In resolving conflicts in the use of regional and local channels, and in the listing of Class III and Class IV stations, priority of use shall be recognized in each country with respect to stations which at the time of signing of this Agreement are in actual operation, which in substance conform to the definitions of said classes as set forth in this Agreement, and with respect to which no substantial change is made or proposed; a change of frequency in order to conform to the designation of channels in this Agreement shall not be deemed a substantial change. 2. Subsequent notifications. After the effective date of this Agree- ment and throughout the period during which it shall remain in effect, each Government shall promptly notify the other Governments by registered letter of all further changes in existing broadcast stations and of all further new broadcast stations, together with similar infor- mation with regard to each such change or new station, and the proposed date on which each such change is to go into effect and on which each such new station is to actually commence operation. 3. Effect of notification. Each Government may, within 30 days of receiving notification of any proposed change in the assignment of an existing station or of the authorization of a new station in another country, notify the Government of the latter country of any objection it may have thereto under the terms of this Agreement. 4. Conflict between notifications. To be valid, notifications of changes in the assignments of existing stations, or of authorizations of new stations must be such that the assignments proposed therein are in accordance with this Agreement and are such as not to involve objectionable interference to existing'stations in other countries, assigned and operating in accordance with this Agreement. As between two or more notifications of changes or authorizations of new stations proceeding from different countries, after the effective date of this Agreement, priority in the date of mailing of notification shall govern. 5. Cessation of effect. (a) A notification of a proposed change in the assignment of an existing station or of an authorization of a new station shall cease to have any force and effect if, within one year of the date thereof such change shall not have been actually consum- 1016 TREATIES [55 STAT.
