SHORTWAVE MONITORING OF DUTCH AND INDONESIAN BROADCASTS

With reference to conversations held today between officers of our
respective departments [1] regarding the extension of monitoring
cover of Dutch and Indonesian broadcasts, I wish to inform you
that this Department desires the fullest possible coverage of all
broadcasts in Dutch and English emanating from the Netherlands and
the Netherlands Indies during the present crisis and will be
prepared to accept responsibility for any necessary expenditure
involved in the securing of the additional staff which may be
required for this purpose.

2. It would be essential that all personnel selected should be
checked from a security point of view.
