For the possibilities of wireless are only bounded by the limits of human imagination. 5 Unbounded Possibilities of Wireless Telephonyâ€"The Story of the Rapid Development of the World‘s Newest Miracle, the Radiophone. By David Loughnan In "The Veteran." One year ago the problems of the radio â€"telephone and telegraph _ were comparatively few and simple. Toâ€"day there are over one million receiving sets in use in the United States. One company alone is reported to have fifâ€" teen million dollars‘ worth of unfilled orders for equipment on its books, and refuses to accept more business until it catches up. Mere boys in New Jerâ€" sey are talking across the Atlantic to boys in Scotland; farmers in outâ€"ofâ€" theâ€"way places are listenng to grand opera, weather reports, market quoâ€" tations:; big busness establishments are broadcasting the day‘s bargains to housewives at breakfast time; ship and aeroplane passengers are sending and receiving messages; forest rangers are reporting fires by radio; no human beâ€" ing, however remote from his fellowâ€" men, is now beyond the sound of the voice. And wireless has done it. Wireâ€" less has reduced the world to just oneâ€" tenth of a second in width! China Has Longest Circuit f At the present time hundreds of milâ€" lions of dollars are being invested in the ‘installation of powerful sending stations in every part of the globe. Strange as it may seem, China has the longest ~combined radioâ€"telephone cirâ€" cuit in the world; but the people of every race will ‘ere long be linked toâ€" gether in the wizard network of inâ€" visible human communication. So rapid is the advance of the technical side of wireless that even experts are experâ€" iencing the greatest difficulty in keepâ€" ing abreast of its possibilties and develâ€" opment. Undoubtedly the chief enigma to be elucidated at the present stake is that of proper control. < To this end the Governments of the world are conferring as to the share of the realms of, etherâ€"or spaceâ€"which should be allotted to each nation. The «stonshing development of the wireâ€" less telephone has made this imperative. Powers of regulation, of license, of the allocation of wave lengths, the protecâ€" tion of amateur and public interests, centralized control, these and â€" many other problems require solution. And each queston is accentuated by almost unlimited potentialities in the rapd deâ€" velopment and unfolding of the new marvel. In order to better understand the situation, one has only to realize that there are more than ten million telephone subscribers in the United Statesâ€"the country in which wireless has made the most rapid strides and beâ€" come a craze of very wideâ€"spread proâ€" portions. If these subscribers substituâ€" ied the radio telephone for their orâ€" dinary phone in daily conversations, the ether would be rendered useless in so far as wireless communication was conâ€" cerned. For etherâ€"the name given to the medium through which radio waves travelâ€"is not limitless. It can only carâ€" ry a certain number of wireless mesâ€" sages, and no more. Beyond this limit a chaos of sound is encountered which effectually prohibits the sending or reâ€" ceiving of messages altogether. _ With thousands of amateurs entering the field; with business men adding their wireless call number and wave length to their letterâ€"heads; with important ofâ€" fical messages to be considered; with the competition of modern publicity demands, it can readily be understood that the threatened chaos of the radio industry must be averted. Hence the necessity of remedying the present erâ€" rors of radio operation, of providing vested control, of licensing only effecâ€" tive sendng and receiving sets in order to reduce interference of regulating Under proper restrictions the wireâ€" less telephone has a wide and definite field of operation. It is a splendd meâ€" dium for the distribution of certan preâ€" determined material of public interest from _ central broadcasting stations. Such material must be limited to news, educational affairs, commercial informâ€" ation of importance to large groups in the communty, publicâ€" entertainment and communications of general interest. wave lengths to concide with the pre sent status of the industry. Will Not Conflict With Telephone There is no reason at present to exâ€" pect that wireless will supersede cable or‘ telegraphic â€" communication. As a matter of fact, the necessary privacy of these mediums of rapid communicaâ€" tion will porbably ensure their continâ€" wance, but wireless will become, and is becoming valuable supplementary service. Experts predict that the priâ€" vacy, cost of operation and energy cost of the telephone and telegraph, as comâ€" pared with wireless, will prevent their eliminatonâ€"unless some very radical development should be brought about in the science of wireless in the future. Until a few months ago the transâ€" mission of wireless â€"messages was largâ€" ely confined to radio telegraphy. Now, however, the rado telephone has comâ€" pletely changed conditions, and, by reason of low cost of installation and equipment, its use may be limited only. by the perfection of effective conâ€" trol. Radio receiving sets are being adâ€" vertised for sale in the States from $2.50 up. In Canada the craze has only just started, yet already enterprizing newspapers on the Pacific coast and elsewhere have installed broadâ€"casting stations, and are giving daily programâ€" mes. In Vancouver hundreds of reâ€" ceiving sets are being installed, and new houses are advertised as wired for raâ€" dio. The radio industry in the United States has expanded to undreamedâ€"of proportions â€"within _the past few months. One large concern expects to do a manufacturing business of well over fifty million dollars this year. It is estimated that over 100,000 vacuum tubes are being turned out monthly, and that the radio business, as it is now developing, is going to be greater than the phonographic industry, which has been doing a business in excess of $400,000,000 a year. These figures are merely quoted to show the potentialiâ€" ties of radiography in Canada. Radio Possibilities in Canada. In this widely scattered Domin@on ELIMINATING SPAGE WITH RADID TIMES AND GUIDE, WESTON the development of wireless will form an asset of extreme importance _ in linking outlying settlements with the larger centres; in giving educational, protective, commercial and other comâ€" munication: in the dissemination _ of currént news, entertainment, instrucâ€" tion, and a hundred and one features which will prove beneficial. Just as Congress is devising ways and means of control arrangement, and seeking to solve the‘ perplexities of radio comâ€" munication in the United States, so will our Federal Government have to deal with the problem shortly. Great Britian has had a worldâ€"wide radio plan for some considerable time, and is particularly interested in the subject at the present moment. It is understood that the scheme proposes the estabâ€" lishment of six principal centres beâ€" tween. which reliable radio communiâ€" cation can be connected, namely: Great Britain, Canada, Australia, New Zeaâ€" land, South Africa, and India. Geoâ€" graphical considerations suggest the postponement of Canada and New Zeaâ€" land. â€"Of the other four Dominions, Australia, â€" South Africa, â€"and India form an equilateral triangle of about five thousand miles along each side, while England is "about six thousand miles from South Africa, five thouâ€" sand miles from India, and ten thouâ€" sand miles from Aunstralia. In the Uniâ€" ted States, in addition to a plan for worldâ€"wide radio, "farm. radio_ clubs" made up of rural boys and girls are being organized in all sections of . the country by the Department of Agriâ€" culture. ¢f y Through the post office American farmers are receiving daily radiograph reports on the live. stock, ‘grain, vegetâ€" able, fruit, hay, and cotton markets. Any farmer equpped with a receiving set may obtain this information. Experâ€" imental farms, state bureaus and colâ€" leges coâ€"operate in the movement. Reâ€" cently a resolution was introduced to the House suggesting that the debates and daily doings of the Congress be broadcasted for the purpose of awakenâ€" ing public interest in national affairs. When one considers that messages can be sent through space for a dstance as great as even seven thousand milesâ€" this has actually been accomplishedâ€" the possibilities of the radiophone mirâ€" acle can be conjectured. Examples of the use of radio might be given almost indefinitely. A few parâ€" ticularly interesting instances will sufâ€" fice, however. Capt Raold Amundsen, dscoverer of the South Pole, will carry | with him radio equpment when he sails on June Ist. This will prevent all isoâ€" lation as in past expeditions, and enâ€" able him to talk daily with Washingâ€" ton. The Detroit police department proâ€" poses equipping its entire police force with portable radio receiving apparatus | in order that they may keep in constant | touch with headquarters. A semiâ€"weekly | radio. telephone health bulletin service | has been inaugurated by the United States _ Public Health Service. These messages of advice will be broadcasted ; from the naval station at Anacostia,| Va., and it is expected that under very | favorable weather conditions, they willl be heard on the Pacific coast,;â€" in Europe and the north parts of South America. The ship in need of medical service can call up the nearest radio station, state the nature of the case requiring mediâ€" cal attentionâ€"in the absence of a ship‘s‘ diagnosis with the complete_ instrucâ€" tions for treatment. A phonograph can be connected to a radio transmitter and music broadcasted through the wards of a hospital. Indeed, there appears to be no reasonable end to the possiblities of wireless communication. Quite naturally, the question arises: What is this thing? How is it done? How difficult is it? Can it be explained in everyday language? One of the simâ€" plest explanations of the principle of radio is that given by Mr. French Stroâ€" ther, who has a comprehensive knowâ€" ledge of the experiments and experâ€" iences in wireless that have beemw carâ€" ried out by Major:General George O. Squier, chief signal officer of the Uniâ€" ted States Army, ‘and by Dr. Louis | _"Wireless is the sending and receivâ€" ing of electromagnetic waves through the ether.....Just think of the ether as space and you will come closé enough to the facts for all practical purposes. Remembering only that space includes the molecules that make up the atoms of matterâ€"So that space inâ€" cludes your own body, and brick walls, and the earth and everythng that is tangible, as well as that more familiar intangible space between the sun and the earth. Wireless} then, is man‘s conâ€" ifrol of electromagnetic waves in the ether. But what are the electromagâ€" netic waves? Briefly, they are disturâ€" bances travelling through ether or space. When you see sunlight, you see electromagnete waves, at such a numâ€" ber of vibrations that they are percepâ€" tible to your own senses through your eyes. And when you feel heat from a stove. these again are electromagnetic waves, at such a number of vibrations per second that they are below the range of your viston and are percepâ€" tible to your senses only through your sense of feeling ~or touch. But both light and heat are exactly the same thing, namely, electromagnetic waves. The only difference between them is that the lengths of the waves are difâ€" ferent. The waveâ€"length of light is inâ€" conceivably shortâ€"about one fifty Cohen,, consulting engineer.
