SOUTHERN BELL TELEPHONE AND TELEGRAPH COMPANY ■ , PLAN TELEPHONE CABLE SPANNING THE ATLANTIC Use of New Type, Discovered by Bell Scientists, Solves Baffling Problem Another dream of telephone engi neers has been made possible of achievement, namely that of tele phoning across the Atlantic by deep-sea cable. Until recently, no one has known how to make a sub marine cable that could carry speech over so long a distance and which could be laid in the great depth of the ocean. The longest deep-sea telephone cables which have yet been laid are the Key West-Havana cables, which are only a little more than one hundred miles in length. Telephoning great distances over land cableses made possible by the use of telephone repeaters, or am plifiers, which, placed at intervals of about fifty miles along the cable, serve to renew the strength of tele phone currents. Obviously, it is out of the question to place suffi cient vacuum tube amplifiers in a deep-sea ocean cable. Up to a few years ago, telephon ing across the Atlantic by cable was practically impossible with a structure of cable which could be laid and repaired in deep waters, but through the development of new materials in the Bell Tele phone Laboratories, telephone engi neers now have the means to ac complish this long desired end. One of the important steps toward this achievement was the discovery, a few years ago, in the laboratories, of a permalloy, an alloy of extraor dinary magnetic properties, which has been used with much success for loading coils on land telephone lines and which has been used in the latest telegraph cables, as a wrapping of wire or tape around the conductor, serving a purpose similar to that *of the loading coils used on land lines. In the meantime, the Bell Laboratories engineers have been actively en gaged in searching out new alloys and in developing means for using them. Their latest accomplishment is the design of a cable suitable for transatlantic telephony, and whicb not only will permit of telephoning across the Atlantic, but when not in use for such conversations, can serve for telegraph operation. That such an announcement can be made by the American Tele phone' and Telegraph Company be fore the cable has been manufac tured, laid and tested, is particular ly interesting, but the experiments that have been made have proved conclusively that such a cable is feasible. Similarly, some fourteen years ago, before the first trans continental telephone line had been completed in 1915, telephone engineers knew in advance that their efforts would be successful and were able to make such an announcement although an actual conversation across the continent had not at that time taken place.
