244 THE BELL SYSTEM TECHNICAL JOURNAL, JANUARY 1957 



ACKNOWLEDGMENTS 



It has been the authors' privilege to present an integrated account of 

 the work of many of their colleagues in the Post Office and in industry. 

 Post Office staff have been responsible for designs and for inspection 

 and testing at home and in the field, as well as the laying of the sub- 

 marine-cable system by H.M.T.S. Monarch. In Great Britain, Submarine 

 Cables, Ltd., and the Southern United Telephone Co., Ltd., provided 

 the submarine and overland cables respectively, while Standard Tele- 

 phones and Cables, Ltd., supplied and contributed much to the design 

 of the submerged repeaters and terminal equipment. On site, the as- 

 sistance rendered by the Ordnance Survey of Great Britain, the Ca- 

 nadian Comstock Co., Ltd., who laid the cable across Newfoundland, 

 the Northern Electric Co., Ltd., who carried out the terminal equip- 

 ment installations, and by the other partners in the project, the Ameri- 

 can Telephone and Telegraph Co. Inc., the Canadian Overseas Tele- 

 communication Corporation and the Eastern Telephone and Telegraph 

 Co., has been invaluable. The permission of the Engineer-in-Chief of 

 the Post Office to make use of the information contained in the paper 

 is gratefully acknowledged.
