WIRELESS TELEPHONY
BETWEEN BRITAIN AND DOMINIONS NO REASON AGAINST LINKING UP (United Service.) (Rec. August 2, 7.5 p.m.) London, August 2. There is no reason why the Mother Country should not be linked up by wireless telephony with all the Dominions, Senor Marconi told the “Daily News.” “We are only waiting for the word from the Post Office before establishing a regular commercial service such as Germany’s beam telephone to South America, which is about as far distant as South Africa. The fact that the Royal thanksgiving service on July 7 was relayed to thg Dominions via Canada proves that the technical difficulties of a regular service are negligible. 1 really do not know why a beam telephone has not been established, except perhaps the Post Office wants to leave us wireless telegraphy and keep wireless telephony to itself.”
