Transatlantic Radio Is Future Ambition of Wireless Engineers
By XKA Service NEW YORK, Sept. 21.—Uncle Sam hopes to talk to John Bull by radio within a very short time. His hopes are based on the successful production of a huge vacuum tube powerful enough to transmit speech over a considerable distance. Wireless communications with England and the rest of Europe has been possible for several years. But actual conversation across the Atlantic has not yet been found practicable. The reason being the incomplete state of development In which radio telephony finds itself today.

The large vacuum tube, which radio engineers believe will enable operators to throw their voices across the sea, is the product of cooperative experiment on the part of Western Electric engineers at the Bell laboratories here. Dr. E. R. Stoekle, Dr. O. E. Buckley, W. G. Housekeeper and Dr. M. J. Kelly are the men to whom credit is given for the production of this special tube. Modern radio telephony bases its success on the vacuum tube with its capacity for converting waves of an audible frequency into those of a much higher radio frequency and hurling them out into space. Those

That being tested for transAtlantic work stands three feet high and is from three and one-half to five inches in diameter. This large tube is comparatively greater than the small one in power than it is in size. In 1915, when the first transmission of speech across the Atlantic was accomplished, 300 of the small tubes were used to generate

vented a method of sealing copper to transmission.”
