OF FCC Radio
Intelligence Work

The work of the Radio Intelli-
gence Division Of the Federal Com

radio espionage was described By
George Z. Sterling, chief Of the RID,

Speaking at the annual Inaugural
ton dinner of the club at the Stat
ler. Mr. Stirling voiced pride in
RID's record in keeping espionage
transmission in this country almost
to zero.

not by the amount of crime which
is detected, but rather by the Or
ganization's success in preventing
illegal conduct and maintaining
order"
The speaker told of espionage and
other clandeStine cases cracked"
by the RID in this country and in
Latin America. Latin American ma
tions have rounded up more than
eco Axis radio spies through the
assistance and advice of RID, he
added.
