This brings it into line with modern progress in electrical transmission, which has been revolutionized since Morse's alphabet, the development of which has stood still...
...Squier System will gain 165% in speed of transmission over the present code, resulting in enormous savings of unification and time. The result of eight years of experimentation, it will help to solve the pressing problems of interference and congestion of the air lanes raised by the rapid expansion of radio...
