โฆ Synopsis
It is shown that a planar can always be to planar graph fewer vertices. It is shown if a planar cubic graph is edge-3colorable then the reduction of the number of its vertices is possible without changing colors of its edges.

## Butte producxd ihe first example of a 3-connected cubic planar nonhamihonian gJaph. On adding the cxmcition that the graph must he bipartite and admitting 2-connected graphs. We prove that the smallest possible such graph has 26 points and is unique.
In this paper, we establish that the number of edge 3-colorings of a finite planar cubic graph G, i.e., 3-colorings of its interchange graph H, is equal to 2\*lPermanent(A)l, where N is the number of edges of G, and A is the 2N X 2iV square matrix formed by repeating each row of the N X 2N vertexdir
