It is hoped, it. was said today, to complete pending negotiations with the Japanese government govern-ment tor close eooperat ion between the new Pacific radio system a nd Japanese st at ions, thus insuring the efficient exchange ex-change of news and commercial messages mes-sages on a la rce scale between Japan and China and this country. In add it ion. to providing an extremely va luable means of communication between be-tween the United States and the islands of th Pacific, and the far east, the new system will be an available link in the national defense system, naval officers asserted. A groat danger in t ime of pea'-c. they said, was that the radio comnnii' i'a i ion system would disintegrate disinte-grate through its personnel becoming inefficient in-efficient and its material useless through lack of use. By handling constantly a larze volume of traffic daily, tho system would be kept. in. the highest slat" of efficiency ef-ficiency at all times, they sa id. and. should necessity a rise, the person ml would be highly t rained a nd ready for any emergency that might develop.
