Rather, we welcome increased participation in international communications by all INTELSAT members.

152. lappuse - ... private sector. Formulation of long-range policies concerning the future of satellite communications requires the most detailed and comprehensive study by the Executive Branch and the Congress. I anticipate that the appropriate committees of Congress will hold hearings to consider these complex issues of public policy. The Executive Branch will carefully study these hearings as we shape our recommendations.
85. lappuse - Government has a special position because of its unique or national interest requirements; ComSat may be authorized to provide service directly to the Government, whenever such service is required to meet unique governmental needs or is otherwise required in the national interest, in circumstances where the Government's needs cannot be effectively met under the carrier's carrier approach.

2. lappuse - It was with this thought in mind that the leaders of the Association for Computing Machinery, the Professional Group on Electronic Computers of the Institute of Radio Engineers, and the Committee on Computing Devices of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers established the Joint Computer Committee.
155. lappuse - The Soviet Union is a leader in satellite technology. I am advised that there is no insurmountable technical obstacle to an eventual linking of the Soviet MOLNIYA system with the INTELSAT system.
