1950 - Telenews Daily, The: Senate - State Dept Liaison Urged

The Telenews Daily - Senate - State Dept Liaison Urged 03:01:31 MS Southern Senator, Tom Connally (D-Texas) at microphone speaks (SOF): “The foreign relations of the United States have become more & more complex in recent years, by reason of the fact that we have activities in a great many countries. It has therefore appear to me to have the Committee On Foreign Relations subdivided into a number of subcommittees, each one of which will more or less specialize on problems that will arise in some particular area of the world. Therefore I am advocating the establishment by the full committee of eight subcommittees placing upon each of them an experienced & trained member of the committee. This will afford an opportunity for members generally to consult w/ each particular subcommittee about vital questions which they are studying. I have advanced this program on the idea that it will not only improve the study by the Foreign Relations Committee of these intricate problems but will afford contact, more immediate contact, w/ the Department of State while it is formulating executive policies with regard to foreign relations.
