WIRELESS IN ALASKA
The army signal service is doing a
great work in the extension of its wire
less system in Alaska, supplementing
the existing lines. Indeed, the system
w inch l)n Ni..nal corps is u* ng ncciiis
to have been rather more successful in
its practical application than some ofj
the commercial systems which are in
use.
Circle, Eagle, Fairbanks, Gibbon and
Nome are now in communication by
wireless, and it is proposed to extend j
the system to many points in the in
terior. It is predicted that every re
mote corner of Alaska will soon he
connected with the world by wireless.
The success of the system as thus far
established is beyond the most san
guine expectations.
i • i t _
Alaska presents a peculiarly nivoi
able Held for the extension of the
wireless telegraph system. The con-:
Siruction of land lines is an expensive,
task owing to the high cost of supplies
and the difficulty encountered in trans-l
porting them into the interior. 1 he
existing laud lines go down frequently
during the winter storms, and it is a
task involving almost incredible diffi
culty and hardships to restore com
munication, with the thermometer i
ranging far below zero. Lhe installa
tion of wireless equipment presents j
no such difficulties, nor is communica
tion subject to such interruptions as is I
the case with the land wires.
Not only is the extension of the
wireless system in Alaska of consider*
able commercial utility, but the army j
signal corps, through tiie experience
which it is acquiring, is becoming
.splendidly qualified for service during
wartimes. It is perfecting the wire-!
le>s day by day, and is training a large
number of men to skill in the estab
lishment and operation of t he system
w hose services may be of the highest
value to the country in time of emer-j
gency—P.-i.
