The system is limited in its ex- pansion by funds appropriated by Congress. Its annual appropriation is usually $172,000 beyond which figure it cannot go. Thus, where new stations are opened, it is necessary to spread out the per-; sonnel now operating the communi- cations service and that personnel is not now larger than is acutally required to meet the demands of | the public for efficient and ef-: fective service. ; Make Personal Contacts | For several years Col.

He purchased the cable in London that is now laid between | Seattle and Alaska. During the| past two years he has been on an assignment with the Signal Corps in the Philippine Islands.
