From London comes the interesting
news that Captain "A. IN. Holland Of
the Norwegian navy has invented q
device that assures the secrecy Of
communication by wireless teleg-
raphy. The machine. according to
press reports. Is one for transmission
and automatic receipt Of printed mes
sages in the manner Of typewriting.
The inventor claims to have typed
messages by wireless waves between
Berlin and the big relay station at
Nauen, a distance of thirty-four
miles. He says he has perfected a
relay which so simpliies wireless
signals that the typewriting device
may be operated over great distances.
The secrecy of the invention is estab-
Hshed by the fact that in sending the
message the apparatus may be ad
justed at a moments notice so as to
employ any of the 72O different code
arrangements of the, alphabet, while
the receiving device will automatical-
ly register the messages in decided
and legible form. Only dots are used
in transmission and by their spacing
the mechanism of the receiving ap-
paratus is controlled so as to recon
struct the message. Captain Holland
declares that the apparatus can be
worked in any wireless system and
that it will render wireless tapping"
impossible
