Factor in National Defence.

While the lNdJOlltf report llnpdItlaiIN
urges legislation TO give American trade
and shipping the same advantages pos
sessed by other nations and seeks to pro-
iect private radio stations 10 the fullest
reasonable extent il is strongly recon-
mendad that legislation be enacted TO
provide mere efficient and reliable con-
munication with the fleet and thus aug
ment the means OF national defence"
In advancing this policy the nine dele
gates say:
1T is recommended that there he estab-
lished az such point or points in the in
terror OF the country a. may be selected
BY the War Department high power radio
stations Of the same general character
and capacity as those provided for each
link Of the navy chain This will furnish
reserve inland radio communication. which
will undoubtedly be found essential In
maintaining a continuous and efficient
exchange OF radio messages between
Washington and our colonial possessions,
and al the same time provide reserve
stations for military purposes, that may
prove very essential in case Of failure OF
wire communication from any cause.
Due 10 various possible causes. the IN
pairment of the Canal Zone radio sta
ton is likely TO occur at times when its
use is most desired. Due likewise 10 at
mospheric conditions existing in tropical

sure 10 be very unsatisfactory at certain
SEASONS Of the year. The length OF the
radio link between Panama and San FRAN
cisco will also be deterrent In securing
reliable continuity OF radio transmission
between those points at all seasons Of the
year. For these reasons the inland sta
ton recommended may prove 10 be
