| Private monopolles tending to pre-
vent the development OF needed ia
cilities should be prohibited. Govern
ment owned facilities wherever posi-
bic without unduly interfering with
private enterprise or government
needs, should be made available for
general uses. Particularly desirable
is the provision of ample cable and
radio services at reasonable rates for
the transmission of press matter, so
that theAmerican reader may receive
a wide range of news and the for
eign reader receive full accounts of
American activities.
The daily press of all countries may
well be put in position tn contribute
to International understanding by the
publication of interesting foreign
news. Practical experience demon
strates the need for effective recog.
milton of both domestic and internn-
tiOnal radio operation " this newer
means of intercOmmunication is to he
fully utilized. Especially needfu "
the provision of ample radio facilities
for those services where radio only
can be used, such ms communication
with ships at sea. with aircraft and
with out of the way places.
International communication by ca
BILE and radio requires cooperation
between the powers concerned. What
ever the degree of control deemed I'D
visable within the United States. gov
eminent licensing of cable landings
and of radio stations transmitting
and receiving international traffic
seems necessary for the protection oi
American interests and for the secur
ing of satisfactory reciprocal pnVl
leges.
