51. Colonel DAY

asked the Postmaster-General what action has been taken by his Department with a view to apprising telephone subscribers of unanswered calls?

The ASSISTANT POSTMASTER-GENERAL (Viscount Wolmer)

The Postmaster-General is considering the advisability of introducing this system.

Colonel DAY

Has an experimental test already been made at the central exchange, and with what result?

Viscount WOLMER

A working test has not been made. It would have to be carried out before the system was introduced.
