Washington.--Forty-tw© nattenf %re now linked In the rnpldly growfUrg ISternntional telephone system and prospects are that within a few years a "telephone Utopia"'will be reached when all Instruments of all nations are connected, according to a government study being made here. A list of international telephone connections compiled in this study by G. Stanley Shoup of the Department of Commerce shows that conversation Is is now possible between six continents. Eighty-five per cent of the world s telepltones are Interconnected and seven transatlantic ocean liners maintain regular service with half a, dozen countries. International Directory. „ Such countries as Germany, Bagland and the United States are in contact with between 25 and 35 other nations. Such great distances are regularly spanaed as between London and Australia, the United States and Argentina, Holland and the East Indies, or France and Indo-€hina. Equipment Is being assembled to span the Pacific. American engineers are preparing te ' lay a transatlantic telephone cable and an International telephone directory already has been published in Its second edition. "This amazing extension of International telephony during the last few years has been one of the most significant and progressive developments In the field of communications," Shoup comments. "As late as 1922 the sum total of international telephony services consisted in the main of circuits from London to Paris> Brussels and Amsterdam, while on this side of the Atlantic the United States was connected only with Cyba and Canada. Opens Vast Possibilities. "We are now connected with fully 85 per cent of the telephones of the world, reaching most of the European countries, Mexico and South America. Such radio-telephone circuits are now in service between Spain and Argentina, France and Argentina, Paris and Indo-Chlna, London and New York, Netherlands and Java. American engineers have perfected a transatlantic telephone cable which is expected to be In operation by 1932. " " "Tiiis opens vast possibilities and in all probability the next few years will witness an even greater development in this art, which will continue, no doubt, until we have reached that telephone Utopia when all telephones and all nations can be Interconnected." Shoup's compilation, which Is constantly being revised as new connections are made, shows 42 nations hooked up In a web of 716 International telephone connections. The United States maintains contact with 28 countries. England Is In touch with 35; Germany with 34; Italy, 21; France, 34; Spain, 28; Poland, 26; Czechoslovakia, 29.; Russia, 6; Argentina, 27; Mexico, 20; BnutU, 10, and Australltuwith 18, expressed the utmost at it They Mpm* It mai which iced Itself ted and when near juM# be burned, i they llatf beenm|ltt^ : frow We have never too much time for gladdening the hearts of those who are traveling with us.
