With tests of this facility completed, the way is new clear for commercial operations over this route, and, as additional routes are equipped for television service, over expanding networks.

Intercity video channels for television broadcasts will be provided by the Bell System over both coaxia| cable and radiff relay facilities. Four thousand miles of coaxial cables have now been placed for use in furnishing telephone service. It is expected that this mileage- will grow to 6,500 by the end of 1947 and to more than 9,000 miles by end of 1948.
