The black and white prints of RFE/RL were donated to OSA by the Hoover Institute, California in year 2015. The images are duplicates of those held at Hoover. The originals, and most probably the negatives are with the donor as well. OSA only received the paper prints with captions, and digitized the entire collection in year 2018.

Every morning this question is posed at the RFE and RL daily morning meetings, bringing together the Directors of the two radios and the heads of the 21 different nationality services. Weighing the value of the more than 1.5 million words that pour every 24 hours from all the world's major news agencies, newspapers, radios and television nets, representatives of all broadcasting services, the Central News Department, Research and management thrash out problems daily.

Hutchings, RFE Deputy Director who chaired the meeting; and representatives of the Czechoslovak and Hungarian Services (backs to camera).
