New Danish Wireless Plan.

New York Times 100 years ago today, June 28, 1913:
Poulsen Patents to be Used in Scandinavian-American Service.
Special Cable to The New York Times.
    COPENHAGEN, June 27. — A far-reaching scheme to make practical use of Valdemar Poulsen’s invention is about to be brought to fulfillment by the establishment of the Danish Radio-Telegraph Company, with stations in Denmark, Greenland, and Canada. Stations will eventually be established along the Norway Coast, in the Danish West Indies, and in Panama.
    A committee has bought from the Universal Radio Syndicate of London the patents for Denmark and the sole right of using this system between Scandinavia and America.
    A capital of $550, 000 will suffice for the present, and the route will be opened next Spring.
