WIRELESS TELEPHONY
MARCONI’S GRIEVANCE. (Australian Press Assn.) (By Cable—Press Assn.—Copyright.) LONDON, August 2. “There is no reason why the Mother Country should not be linked up by wireless telephony with all the Dominions,” Signor Marconi told the “Daily News.” “We are only waiting 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 to South Africa. The fact that the Royal thanksgiving on July 7 was relayed to the Dominions, via Canada, proves that the technical difficulties of a regular service are negligible. I really do not know why the beam telephone has not been established except perhaps that the Post Office wants to leave us wireless telegraphy and keep wireless telephony to itself.”
