The project, which has been under study and planning for some twen- ty-five years, will cost $35,000,000. The AT&T, British Postoffice and Canadian Over- seas Tele-communication Corporation will jointly own the cable. Until this cable is in operaton, trans-Atlantic telephone service will continue to be by short-wave radio. The longest telephone cable yet to be laid across an ocean floor is that between Key West arfd Havana. The-¢able to be laid will be able to‘handle thirty-six simyltaneous conversations, although it does not carry a wide enough band for television transmission, There will be more than 100 underwater repeaters along the cable, which will be protected by a wrapping of copper foil, PEOPLE’S FORUM The Citizen welcomes sions of the views of its read- ers, but the editor reserves right te delete any items which . are considered libelous or eareraneed The writers should be fair and confine the letters to 200 words and write on one side of the paper only.

While he may not have worried about the electric chair, he knew that the mere mention of his name in con- nection with murder would start the reformers howling and hurt his business. He tried to get the letter by bril and threatening me; he searched Dexter’s rooms or had them searched; and when he thought I was trying to con- nect him with Clarabelle’s mur- der, too, he imported those Phila- delphis hoodlums to deal with Dexter, more perturbed than Martin had ever seen him, ap- pealed to Cloud again. “Marty must have been thinking up this one for quite a while. Do you be-/ lieve him?” “He hasn't proved a thing to me,” Cloud replied, “but I am im- pressed. He’s reached the hai part now, though... . King, why would Dexter kill his ex-wife if he loved her?” “It is hard to explain,” Martin said. “You have to visualize both sides of Dexter clearly in order to understand it. You see, he kilk her because he loved her. “At first he hoped she’d say nothing about seeing him in West Fourth Street because he was go- ing to support her. No doubt he arranged to get more money from Morrissey to do that, perhaps in return for telling Morrissey that Barbara was ity and suggest- ing that the secret could be used to make an ally of Ennis. I think both Morrissey and Ennis be- lieved Barbara was guilty. Didn't you, Morrie?” Morrissey nodded. “Unluckily,” Martin continued, “Dexter discovered that it would take more than money to keep Clarabelle quiet.

Although it is estimated that some 75,000 calls were completed between the United States and Great Britain last year, the new cable will allow AT&T to expand its service and improve it, The project, however, will not be completed until 1957 or 1958. At its completion, overseas telephone service will have been available for approximately thirty years, since it was on January 7, 1927, that a sfhgle radio telephone circuit connecting New York and London was initiated. The new cable will mean that telephonic communi- cations to London and other overseas points will be com- pletely reliable and readily available. The new cable will! be the longest underseas voice cable in the world and) represents an achievement in the field of science for American, British and Canadian engineers.
