CABLE-RADIO TENTACLES
BRITISH COMMUNICATIONS GRIP WORLD AMERICAN APPREHENSIVE (Australian and N.Z. Press Association) Reed. 9 a.m. MINNEAPOLIS, Mon. The president of the Radio Corporation of America, Mr. James Guthrie ITarbord, delivered an address in which lie referred to the merger of the cables and radio services of Britain. “This new combined British communications interest will affect American relationships in every part of the world. There will be hardly a port or principal city on the planet that will not be reached by British communications. American trade in every quarter of the globe cannot but be profoundly affected, and our national defence organisation must reckon with this planetary combination of communications by the British.” Mr. Harbord deplored the White Act of 1927, forbidding the purchases of radio by cable companies and vice versa in the United States.
