GOVERNMENT SHOULD TAKE OV-
ONCE SAYS ROOSEVELT
(By Franklin D. Roosevelt)
written for the United Press)

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2.-As a meas
ure Of safety the United States Gov
ernment should assume control Of every
x ,ss station in the country, except
those engaged in prely intra state bust
ness at once.
Control of wires and cables is SIM
pie but wireless messages are easily in
terferred with by outsiders. There
should be government ownership Of all
wireless apparatus in peace as we'll as
in war time, as matter of public pol
icy. We shouldn It let this matter wait
until the trouble is upon us.
The suggestion has been made to
Congress and is based fundamentally
upon the character of wireless telegra
ply. In land telegraph lines and sub
marine cables each separate wire sends
out it's own messages and does not in
terfere with the sending Of messages
and does not interfere with the sending
of messages on other wires. The loca
ton and existence Of these wires and
cables is a matter which can be deter
mined almost at moments notice. The
control of these is an easy matter from
the military or naval point Of view.
Wireless is entirely different. The
small and readily concealable and the
actual transmission Of the message is
through the waves Of the air. This
means, of course, that interference be-
tween messages increases necessarily
with tn number Of messages sent unless
a perfect system with central control
is initiated. The increase in the num-
Der Of installations all over the United
States has been greater than the devel-
opment of science in respect to non-in-
reference and the result is growing
confusion.
Quite aside from the general question
Of the advisa bility Of establishing 9
Government monopoly, the considera
tions in favor Of Government operation
of wireless far outweigh the disadvan
tages.
Central control has been demonstra
ted to be a necessity; it cannot be car
ried out successfully except by actua
Government operation and, more impor
tant still, the military and naval re
quiremerts are such that it would b.
unsafe, speaking in a broad sense, t
wait until a declaration Of war befor
taking over or closing up hundreds an
thousands Of small individual, privatel.
owned stations.
The only way by which real safet.
can be assured is for the Government
to exercise this control in times o
peace also.
