fly Cable.—Press Association.—Copyright Melbourne, August 17.
Giving evidence to the Postal Commission, Dr. Bell, inventor of the telephone, said he considered the common battery system.still the best, and that there was little chance of it being superseded' for at least twenty years. The time was not ripe yet for the automatic system of telephones. He expected great things from wireless telephony, but it was still in the experimental stage. He attributed four-fifths' of the delays in answering calls to the public themselves.
