The Father of Telegraphic Communication
Samuel F. B. Morse sent the first telegraphic message between Baltimore and Washington on May 24, 1844.
Seven years later the first telegraphic train order was utilized. The progress of railways across the continent was accompanied by the telegraph, which became indispensable in train operation and in the conduct of railroad affairs generally.
More than 542,000 miles of railroad telegraph wire now flash day and night, for railroad operation never ceases. The Telegraph and Telephone Section of the American Railway Association devotes much study to improvement of that branch of railroad service.
Professor Morse's invention a century ago has resulted in a world wide convenience of communication that neither the railroads, nor any other industry, nor social life, could do without in 1932.
The railway industry of the United States joins with the United States Government and with other private industies in celebrating the One Hundredth Anniversary of the invention of the Morse Telegraph and Code.
