Washington, July 23.—Acting under the authority recently conferred by congress, President Wilson today is- sued a proclamation taking all tele- phone and telegraph lines under go: ernment operation and control at mid- night, Wednesday, July 31. Although congress empowered him to do so, the president did not in- clude wireless systems, because the navy already is in control of them: and he alse did not include ocean ca- bles, presumably because contracts the cable companies have with foreign govérnments on whose shores they land, contain clauses respecting gov- ernment operation which raised in- volved questions. The navy already is in practical control of the cables through its censorship. The president's proclamation plac- ed administration of the wire systems Wwith Postmaster General Burleson and provided that until otherwise decided the present management and employes will continue. Presant financial ar- rangements alse will continue with the approval of the postmaster gen- al. In a statement accompanving the president’s proclamation, Postmaster General Burleson announced to the| country that his policy would be ene| of the least possible interference with the wire communication systems con- sistent with the interests and needs of the government. T’ress wire service, Mr. Burleson said would be interfered with only to Improve its facilities, and farmers' telephones would be interfered with only to facilitate their connection with the larger lines.
