Efficiency Increased,
Waste Prevented

The proposed arrangement between
the Western Union, the Anglo-Amc
lean and the Direct U. S. companies
will bring the eight cables of the three
companies under one operating con-
troll. The consequent increase in
effectiveness and economy will place
the Western Union in position to
offer certain advantages in cable
service not now enjoyed by the public.
The other way open to enable
the Western Union to make such i'm
provements and introduce such new
services as it proposes to do, would
be to lay new cables. This would
seem to be the height of folly.
Duplication of the existing trans
Atlantic cable facilities at a cost of
many millions, when there are more
than ample facilities for all business,
would put an unnecessary financial
burden upon an already fully burdened
business and would probably postpone
the reduction of rates or introduction
of new services

Limited Business Hours
and Idle Facilities

AS at present carried on, the trans
Atlantic cable business is practically
all fash service, i. e. instantaneous.
Owing to the difference in time, there
are only few business hours of the
day common to both sides and during
these hours at least 75S of the cable
business is done. This is demon
strated by the accompanying chart.
In the interests of international
business nothing should be done to
interfere in any way with the so-called
flash or instantaneous service, and
the lines should be kept clear to ac-
commodate such messages during the
few business hours common TO both
countries; but to continue to confine
the cables to this class of service, as
at present, will utilize only about as q
of the existing capacity of millions of
property and places on that limited
service all the capital, maintenance
and operating charges.

of the business, IL best results are to
