ROUGH ON DICTOGRAPHS. Nikola Tesla ,the wireless wizard, writes in a current magazine : "I shall be able from my Long Island aerophone to call up any phorre in the universe, and my
voice may set the whole world trembling with its vibration. ... "It will be possible to control the weather in any locality by either preventing or producing rainfall. "With wireless transmission, the water power from the streams in the North Pacific States can furn every wheel of Industry and move the traffic of every railroad In the country. "Wireless power will send a crewless ship from any port in the world to any other port on the Seven Seas, from a power plant anywhere on earth. "Battleships In the wireless future will be crewless.' They will be maneuvered by one man before a switchboard "on land. "Gigantic ships of th air will be propelled at the rat of three or four hundred miles an hour by a dispatcher, on the ground. One may have dinner In New York one day, and tea next day in Canton or Tokto."
Nikola will certainly be able to "ball un" the dictograph service
