TELEPRINTERS FOR POLICE
MORSE TELEGRAPHY GOING OUT To ensure more rapid and accurate communication between police head quarters and detached stations, the Lancashire County Police has installed a teleprinter system, the advantages of which were stressed by Mr. L. Simon, Director of Telegraphs and Telephones at the annual conference of Chief Constables in London. He said that the old style of Morse telegraphy was being superseded hy this new type of telegraph instru■ment, which had features maldng it specially suitable for police work. It could be operated, after very little training, by anyone wjio could use a typewriter, and arrangements could be made for messages to be transmitted and recorded at all the subdivisional stations simultaneously. This new type of public service, he added was new, but it was hoped that within a year or so it would be available practically over the whole country.
