Chairman Paul A, Porter Wednesday described the Commis¬ sion's action as a significant milestone in the Commission's cam¬ paign for expansion of American communications.
uThe Commission has been particularly concerned that high rates and the indirect routing of communications should not be bottlenecks in this period of expanding international cooperation and world trade.
"Cheap, rapid communication can be a powerful tool for the building of world trade. The reduced press rates will mean that newspaper readers in America and in large sections of the globe out¬ side America will have the benefit of an exchange of news on a great er scale than ever before. More publications may now find it pos¬ sible to maintain special correspondents abroad. Press associations can more easily expand their services. This is especially signifi¬ cant at a time when international affairs loom so large in the news.
"The Commission will continue its efforts to obtain rate reductions and improved facilities in other areas in accordance wit the policy and principles of the Communications Act for making available to all the people of the United States a rapid, efficient world-wide wire and radio communication service with adequate fac¬ ilities at reasonable charges.
