APPROPRIATION IS FAVORED FOR ALASKA CABLE

WASHINGTON, May 12.-Advocates of the laying of a new cable between Seattle and Alaska were much encour- aged yesterday by the action of the ub-committee of the Senate Appropri- ations Committee in adding half million dollars to the army appropria- tion bill for a new submarine cable to Alaska. 1t is planned to replace the present line entirely, it being argued that it has outlived it's prac- tical usefulness, has repreciated in many places almost to the vanishing point and is thereby tremendously in- creasing the annual cost of mainte- nance The amandment must pass through the hands of the full commit tee before it's retention in the bill is agreed upon, and then must go before the full Senate for action. However the ub-committee members expressed their belief that little opposition to the new cable would develop in the Senate.
