Dear John:
0 Uuu:r n/ Atrn'rrr.
I want to thank you and for being so generous with your
time. And we do want to 0 ow up as indicated below:
+ Program Summaries: Joe Buday, our Deputy News Chief, is
working with our research people to identify which foreign,
broadcasters we want to track on a daily basis by having
summaries of their newscasts. Joe will shortly be in direct
contact with you on this.
+ Technical: We all were fascinated to hear about where FBIS
is going in the world of computer/communications. This surely
is an area we want to track and Alan Heil, Chief of our News
and Current Affairs Division, is the man.
+ Visitors: The opportunity for our programming people to have
an exchange of ideas with your foreign monitors when they visit
Washington is of high interest here. Please contact me when
you are ready to make arrangements in this regard.
Again, let me say how much VOA appreciates the truly fine job FBIS
does. Without your service, we simply would not be able to be as
competitive as we are.
With warm regards.
Cordially,
William H. Read
