STRATEGIC AREAS
AMERICAN MISSIONS TO GO ABROAD
WASHINGTON, April 16
The Senate Military Committee has approved a request by the Secretary for State (Mr. James Byrnes) for authorisation for American military missions to be sent to places of strategic importance, says the Associated Press.
Mr. Byrnes mentioned • specifically the Near East, the Middle East, and the Far East regions, “the.component parts of which are in a state of intense political and economic readjustment.”
Mr. Byrnes noted that many nations preferred American assistance to that of other Powers because United States foreign policy was devoid of imperialistic design upon the sovereignty of any nation. He revealed that requests for American military and naval missions had already been received from several foreign Governments, whose names were not disclosed. Others were expected.
