.U.S.RAD|O COMPANY
ASKS LAND IN CHINA

. Efforts OF the Federal Telegraph
Company to obtain from the Chinese
government authority TO complete
and put in operation it's radio stations
in China was the subject of conversa-
tions yesterday between Maj. Gen.
James G Harbord. retired, president
of the Radio Corporation of America,
and State department officials, the
Associated Press has learned. No
statement as to what transpired at
the conference was made, however.
The only authoritative announce
ment made at the department. rela-
tive to the radio situation in China
was that there had been no recent
development. 1t was understood that
the Washington government has as
yet been unable TO induce the
Chinese authorities TO grant equal
opportunity and land rights to the
Federal Telegraph Company, al
though the latter has invested more
than s15.000,000 in its Chinese en-
terprise.
A japanese radio company Is also
at work in China. but has not yet
established communication across the
Pacific owing to mechanical difficui-
ties with it's equipment. Pressure
from this source via Toxic is gen
orally credited with having caused
the Peking authorities to defer action
on the request of the Radio! Corpora
ton for granting OF privileges neces-
sary TO the completion or it's projects
I'm China.
The consistent attitude OF the state
Department has been to demand equal
opportunity for American enterprise
in China or elsewhere. Representa-
tions made at PekinG by Minister
Jacob Gould Schurman in connection
with the radio situation have been
based on that principle.
There is reason TO believe that
Minister Schurman has demonstrated
with the Chinese authorities over
what amounts to an expulsion of the
American company in favor of the
japanese concern and that he has
pointed out that the Washington
government expects the Peking gov
ernment to adjust matters SO that
there can be equal opportunity in
development of transpacific COM
munication and the furtherance OF
commercial intercourse with China.
There was no indication that de-
partment officials had been able to
give Gen. Harbord any hopeful re-
port on the progress of negotiations
being conducted in Peking. 1t can
not be doubted. however, that Min
lister Schurman is pressing the Amert-
can viewpoint strongly and hopes
ultimately to bring about the grant
ing of the land rights sought by the
Federal Telegraph Company.
