STATIC DISTURBANCE
FINALLY OVERCOME
BUILDING WIRELESS Cen
TRIAL" FOR WORLD SYS-
TEN or COMMUNICATION

New York, Oct 6.--Nikola Tesla
announced tonight that he had re
ceiyed a patent on an Invention
which would not only eliminate static
interference, the present bugaboo OF
wireless telephony, but would enable
thousands of persons to talk at once
between wireless stations and make
it possible for those talking to see
one another by wireless, regardless
OF the distance separating them. He
said also that with his wireless sta
tion now in the process of construc-
ton on Long Island he hoped to make
New York one of the central exchang-
es in a world system of wireless tel
ephony.
Tesla exhibited an article publish
ed in the Electrical World 12 years
ago in which he predicted not only
wireless telephony on a commercial
basis, but that 1t would be possible to
lucuLll1 tuc NuAtc Vi an dNqudiHlohN~
over any distance. That its operator
in Hawaii was able to distinguish the
voice OF an engineer friend at Arling-

lean Telephone and Telegraph Com
pany as the most marked triumph of
its communication by wireless tele-
phone from the naval radio station
atseArlington to Pearl lHarbor, Ha-
waii distance Of 1900 miles
The statement OF Tesla today was
as follows:
THE experts carrying out the rec
ent wireless experiment are desery- |
inguof great credit for the skill they
have shown in perfecting the devices
These are of two kinds: First, those
serving to control transmission; and
second, those magnifying the receiv-
ed impulse It is perfectly apparent
that the chief merit of the application
lies in the magnification of the mic
rophonic impulse.

traffic. Irrespective of our per-

must mark with interest the
following facts:
J.. The sale Of vodka was
abolished in Russia by imperial
degree at the outset of the war,
and within the last few days
beer has also come under the
ban at Petrograd.
2. France has forbidden the
traffic in absinthe.
