IN NEAR FUTURE.
WIRELESS 'PHONES. Britain To Dominions Service Feasible. ... % MARCONI CONFIDENT. — c (United Service.) LONDON, August 2. Speaking to a representative of the "Daily News" Signor Marconi said there was no reason why Britain should not be linked up by wireless telephony with all the Dominions. His company was only awaiting a word from the Post Office authorities before establishing a regular commercial service, such as Germany's beam telephone to South America, which was about as far as South Africa. . The fact that the thanksgiving service for the King's recovery on July 7 was relayed to the Dominions via Canada proved that tlio technical difficulties in connection .with a regular service were negligible. Signor Marconi said he did not know why beam telephony had not been established, . except perhaps that tlie Post Office authorities wanted to leave his Company wireless telegraphy and keep - wireless telephony themselves.
