Radio-TV Swaps With Reds Seen As Peace Move
Washington leaders welcomed a Russia signing on a radio and television exchange as a potential step toward easing East West tensions. If smooth, the first swap could occur by spring, with broader cultural exchanges possible. Pledges praised by Rep. John M. Vorys and Sen. Theodore Green contrasted with doubts Russians would allow open broadcasts from Soviet air WAVES. The pact, signed by Zaroubin and Lacey, aims to reduce rivalries by letting writers, athletes, medical experts, artists, scientists, educators, students, and film figures exchange.
