Chicago, Aug. 1S.-Considerable ex-
citement has been caused among busi-
ness men using private telegraph code
by the announcement Of the Western
Union Co., that on and after the first
of next month no code words exceed
ing FIVE letters in length will be ac-
cepted on land lines except dictionary
words. The announcement says:
This change is necessitated by the
growing use Of artificial words in code
messages and the abnormally heavy
cost of handling such words.
Adopted originally to cover occa-
sional artificial words which had mad
vertently been incorporated in CONNER
cial or private codes, advantage has
been taken Of the 'pronounceable
rule by code makers to construct codes
based wholly upon purely arbitrary
group OF letters two or more OF which
groups are themselves combined in one
Iten-letter word.
These combinations are extremely
difficult Of correct telegraphic trans.
mission and at the present count and
rates are handled at loss"
