Ii Is proper to invite your atten-
tion 10 the Importance of the ques-
tiOn of radio communication and ca
bles. TO meet strategic commercial

ment should be given to the extern

United States and its possessions
there should be ample communication
facilities providing direct services at
reasonable rates. Between the United
States and other countries not only
should there be adequate facilities,

ticable, direct and free from foreign

all have virtually agreed to decline
the wage cuts and let the whole

the position that the figures and

not show sufficient cause for the
reductions and cannot be substan-
tiated in a hearing.
Agreed On Policy.
That the railroad worker had
agreed on a policy to fight the re
ductions was indicated by their
move in advancing one week the
date for the second conference with
the New York Central officials. This
