Submarine Cable
19th November 1935: One of two mammoth drums, each weighing 33 1/2 tons and containing 5, 000ft of submarine cable, being lifted aboard the P&O liner Rajputana at King George V dock, London, by the floating crane, the only means available of moving them. The drums, which only just fitted into the ships hold, are destined for China where they will be used on the Yangtse River. (Photo by E. Dean/Topical Press Agency/Getty Images)
