PRAISES CABLE COMPANY.
Merchants Association Reports on
AlI-America Service.

An investigation recently made by the
Merchants Association and reported to
the War Trade Board in Washington
shows that while cable service TO and
from Europe Is very poor, uniformly
satisfactory service has been given to
Americans and South American business
men by the All-Amerlca Gables Service
which is owned and operated by Ameri-
cans. Most of the cables from South
and Central America which have been
delayed were transmitted by way of
London.
The coffee men OF New York say that
satisfactory service has been given them
between the United States and Central
and South American points by the ALI
America company. The concern main
talns a deferred rate classification,
which provides for the handling OF cable
grams at reduced rate. subject to deliv-
cry within ten to twenty-four hours
The regular rate offers a normal thirty
minute service between New York and
Buenos Ayres. distance OF 1882 miles,
The associations investigation showed
that this service was the best obtainable
by American business men.
