STATE-OWNED CABLE
ACROSS ATLANTIC SIR WILFRID LAURIER EXPECTED TO ACHIEVE SUCCESS. By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright (Received May 22, 11.40 p.m.) LONDON. May 22. “The Times” Ottawa correspondent reports that Canadians believe the Imperial Conference will settle the question of a State-owned cable between Canada and the Motherland. Sir V ilfrid Laurior, with the co-operation of the delegates of Australia and New Zealand, who are interested equally with Canada, is expected to bring the matter to a successful conclusion. The ownership of all leading cables passing to foreign control will make . a strong additional reason for the adoption of that course. It is not believed, however, that control by the British Post Office of foreign-owned cables on the American side of the Atlantic can be more than nominal.
