Help To Telex
The new cable will also greatly increase the efficiency of the international teleprinter service known as TELEX. Already 50 New Zealand firms are subscribers to this service and have their own teleprinter on which they can communicate direct with firms throughout the world. The service is developing rapidly and many girls now learning to type at secondary schools will think nothing in a year or two of teletyping to London, Paris, Montreal, or a dozen other centres of world trade.
The completion of the cable will be a major historical land-mark in development of our overseas communications. It will be of great significance in our economic and social development. Because of the 12,000 miles that separate us from our main markets, we in New Zealand have always been communications conscious. The new cable will do much to bridge that distance.
