TELEPRINTER MACHINES
NEW BRITISH INVENTION ADOPTED BY POST OFFICE (British Official Wireless.) Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright. RUGBY, January 22. Sir Kingsley Wood (PostmasterGeneral), speaking this evening at Birmingham, said that the Post Office hoped to introduce in a few months a remarkable new service which was_ the result of the work and skill of British inventors and was known as the teleprinter exchange service. The new method would enable a message to be typewritten automatically between the offices of any two telephone subscribers at any distance from one another if they had teleprinter machines installed. The typist in one office would type a message and it would be printed simultaneously on both machines, so that both subscribers would have a complete record of all communications exchanged. The machines provided a safeguard against wrong connections. He hoped that the service would bo available to subscribers in the provinces by the summer.
