Even those looking for signs of discord in the testimony failed to detect any. The differences had provided ammunition for conflict between the departments during the summer in Washington, until the cabinet officers involved signed off on the agree - ment-on Aug. <strong>31</strong> by Secretary of State George Shultz and on Sept. 28 by Secretary of Commerce Malcolm Baldrige. The differ- ent missions of the two departments provide grounds for speculation that conflict may break out again. The one -page document notes those dif- ferences but treats them as compatible. It says that international communication and information policy is shared among several departments and agencies. Then it says Commerce is "responsible for the develop- ment and presentation of telecommunication and information policy for the executive branch and federal government spectrum management." As for State, that department is said to be "responsible for incorporating this area with other aspects of U.S. foreign policy, consultations and negotiations with other governments, and maintenance of U.S. relations with intergovernmental orga- nizations."

Kevin Kelley, deputy chief of the FCC's domestic facilities division, said the com- mission will now try to find applicants that aren't mutually exclusive with others, grant- ing those that are acceptable. Kelley de- clined to speculate on when the first MMDS grants would be ready. Kelley added that the commission hasn't decided how it should handle the rest of the applications yet. committee on Arms Control, Oceans, Inter- national Operations and Environment (BROADCASTING. <strong>Oct</strong>. 24), William Schneider, Under Secretary of State for Se- curity Assistance, Science and Technology, and Ambassador Diana Lady Dougan, coor- dinator for international communications and information policy, representing State, and David Markey, head of Commerce's Na- tional Telecommunications and Information Administration, testified at length on their respective departments' responsibilities and plans in the field of international telecom- munications policy without seeming to vio- late the other department's turf. And sub- committee chairman Larry Pressler (R- S.D.) did not ask any questions that would generate controversy. Later, a Commerce official declared him- self satisfied the "turf war," as it had been called, is over. He cited the sentence in the agreement describing Commerce's responsi- bilities and noted it repeated language in the executive order issued by President Carter establishing NTIA. A State Department offi- cial was not as sanguine about the durability of the peace that had broken out. The docu- ment signals "a truce, a meeting of the minds, but not a total agreement," he said. Indeed, Shultz, in his Aug. <strong>31</strong> letter to Baldrige expressing State's acceptance of the agreement, found it necessary to stress two points. He said the "evolution of com- munication and information technology and its international significance makes it a for- eign policy concern of the first magnitude, since the ultimate course of communication and information policy can affect every di- mension of our foreign relations." Then he said that "the pervasive character of commu- nication and information policy reinforces the critical character of effective interagency
Today, It's Steel. Tomorrow It Could Be Your Industry, Your Job. U.S. Steel and British Steel plan to finish their negotiations by the end of November on a far - reaching plan to change the nature of the <strong>American</strong> steel industry. Their decision, and our government's response to it, may be as important to you as it is to <strong>American</strong> steelworkers. U.S. Steel has proposed to stop steel -making at its Fairless Works near Philadelphia, and import 3t/z million tons of semi- finished steel slabs annually from the government -owned British Steel Company. Other East Coast and midwestern steel mills would soon be forced, by competitive pressure, to follow U.S. Steel's lead. The United States would immediately lose 3,000 steel -making jobs at Fairless Works - and would soon lose 75,000 to 100,000 other steel- making jobs in other steel mills. Jobs in iron ore and coal mining would disappear too, as would jobs in the service industries which supply steel mills, steelworkers, coal and iron ore mines. The British steel mills produce these slabs with huge government subsidies. Ironically, U.S. Steel in the past has been an outspoken critic of the dumping of subsidized foreign steel on the <strong>American</strong> market. Now, the company is saying that even if the British deal falls through, it will seek similar arrangements with other countries. UNITED STEELWORKERS OF AMERICA Since foreign steel facilities are usually govern- ment -owned and highly subsidized, <strong>American</strong> work- ers and companies find themselves in the position of trying to compete with a foreign government. It can't be done. Take wages, for example. While some people seem to think <strong>American</strong> steel- workers make far more than we actually do, work- ers in steel -making facilities in many foreign coun- tries make barely enough to survive. Anything approaching such a wage scale in this country would result in a severe depression for everyone. Nobody could afford to pay <strong>American</strong>- style medical bills, taxes, home payments or food bills on such wages. Neither could they afford <strong>American</strong> automobiles, consumer goods or educa- tions for their children. The result of such a low - wage policy would be devastating, not only for hourly workers, but for business and professional people and all others in our society. Were doing everything we can to resist the U.S. Steel- British Steel deal. We're convinced it would open the way to the destruction of the Ameri- can basic steel industry. But beyond that, we want to help make the <strong>American</strong> people aware of the dangers of foreign industrial targeting and dumping to all of us. All of us are the targets. Including you. IF YOU WOULD LIKE MORE INFORMATION ON INDUSTRIAL TARGETING AND WHAT YOU CAN DO TO DEAL WITH THE PROBLEM, PLEASE MAIL- THIS COUPON TO: NAIE ADDRESS Lloyd McBride, President United Steelworkers of America Five Gateway (:enter Pittsburgh, PA 15222
