to the Importance OF the question: o4
radio communication and cables. To
meet strategic, commercial and politi.
cal needs, active encouragement should
be- given to the extension of American
owned and operated cable and radio
service.
Between the United States and pos
sessions there should be ample COM
munication facilities providing direct
service at reasonable rates Between
the United States and other countries
not only should there be adequate
facilities, but these should be, SO far as
practicable, direct and free from
foreign INTERPRETATION. Friendly CO.
operation should be extended to inter-
national efforts aimed at encouraging
Improvement of international commun-
ication facilities and designed to
further the exchange of messages. Pri-
vate monopolies tending to prevent the
development of needed facilities should
be prohibited Government owned
facilities, wherever possible without
unduiy interfering with private enter
prise or government needs, should be
made available for general uses. Par
tcularly desirable is the provision of
ample cable and radio services at rea-
sonable rates for the Transmission of
press matter so that the American
reader may receive a wide range of
news and the foreign reader receive
full accounts of American activities,
The daily press of all countries may
well be put in position to contribute TO
international understandings by the
publication of Interesting foreign news.
Practical experience demonstrates
the need for effective recognition of
both domestic and International radio
operntion IL this newer mems of inter
communication is to be fully utilized.
Especiauy needful is the provision of
annie radio Cncilfties for those ser
vices where radio only can he used.
