each plane was entirely invisible from
the other.
To appreciate what a tremendous
advance was represented by this oppl-
cation OF the Bell engineers wireless
telephone system, the best scheme
actually employed at that time must
be known. The best scheme actually
employed did not provide any means
OF communicating between the planes.
Wireless telegraphy was used TO send
from the plane to the ground and very
occasionally from the ground TO the
plane. In addition 10 its limitations,
this system required that the observer
In the plane should be able TO send
Morse. The practical utility Of this
scheme was limited 10 reporting the
results Of artillery fre and correcting
ranges and 10 a limited extent for re-
porting from scout planes.
The demonstration showed so con-
clusively the success OF the Bell Sys-
tom and made such a strong impress
sion upon tile officials present that i'm
medlately thereafter large orders for
this apparatus were placed by both
the army and navy, and since then
from time 10 time, further large orders
have been placed, and this apparatus
was in actual service on the fghting
front.
Large numbers OF the Bell System
wireless outfits have been obtained by
cur allies and used by them in the
war.

With the coming Of peace, many OF
the well. guarded secrets OF the IN
strumentalitiss which have helped IN
winning the war a-e being learned. Not
least among them is the wonderiui
Radio Telephone Set, which u Is now
said ciniributed to such wonderful
extent In the victory. The Importance
~ the work OF the Bell System in de-
veloping the Airplane Radio Ieiephons
sci Is shown by the letter wnicn ioi-
lows from the Secretary OF war, New
ton d. Baker. TO T. N. Vail. President
of the American Telephone and Tele-
graph Company.
"The chief Signal oflcer, General
squier, has called to my attention the
splendid spirit Of cooperation ana
hclpfulness which has been evinced
during the war by the wonderful engl-
neerine organization Of the American
Telephone and Telegraph Company.
The hirplane Radio Telephone Set
which has proven so satisfactory TO the
Air Service and which has brought
about entirely new methods Of military
use OF airplanes. is a particular ex-
ample Of the result OF this cooper
alton. The evolution and development
Of this and other important apparatus
was made possible only because your
engineering staff freely furnished tho
highly technical knowledge and SKIN
necessary In the development design
and manufacture OF the sets.
please express to your engineers my
appreciation Of the splendid service
rendered"
The fundamental work IN connection
with wireless telephony was done by
the engineers OF the Bell System prior
to the entry Of this country into the
war, as reported In that Company's an
nual reports for the years 1915 and
1916. Upon the methods and apparatus
there referred 10 is based all OF the
successful war applications Of wireless
telephony. Here are the later facts
substantially as given by the Bell Sys-
TEN engineers:
A considerable time before the United
States entered the war our navy was
supplied by the engineering department
OF the Bell System with a wireless tele-
phone Outflt designed for communica-
tion between an airplane and a station
on land or on a ship. From this time
on until VIC entered the war the West
ern Electric Company, the manufaetur-
ing branch Of the Bell System. as a
part OF It's general study. continued It's
work OF perfecting light, compact sets
which would be available for use on
small vessels and on alrplanes. 10 Is
significant to note that the FIRST sue
cessful wireless test between an air
plane and the ground, made on Lang
ley Field after our entry into the war;
was made with one OF these sets de-
signed and completely built prior TO
our entry into the war.

system, designing the best telephone
trsnsmitter for the peculiar conditions
on the alrplanes and other questions OF
a similar nature. So complete had been
the fundamental work already accom-
plished, and so rapidly was the work
pushed, that on December 2, 1917, at
the Wright Field, Dayton. Ohio. an Of
fetal demonstration was made between
planes, and planes TO the ground, be-
fore the Aircraft Production Board and
before officers Of the army and navy.
Two planes were sent up into the ar,
each equipped with a Bell engineers
wireless telephone system. These sys-
tens were so arranged on the planes,
which were two-seaters, that both pilot
and observer received the messages,
and the observer could communicate
with the grourd or with the other
airplsne, and the pilot and observer
could talk 10 each other by wire tele-
phone, this being an important point
as the noise in an airplane is such that
pilots and observers cannot directly
communicate with each other by
spoken word. On the ground there wss
one OF the wireless telephone Outfts.
This was equipped with a loud speak
ing receiver. so that all OF the as
sembled officials could hear both the
orders Issued 10 the alrplanes and the
communications from the airplanes.
orders were Issued to each OF these
planes from the ground by wireless
telephone and their receipt acknowl-
edged from the planes by the same
means, the orders issued being i'm
medlately executed. The planes also
communicated with each other. In this
test orders were issued 10 planes from
the ground over distances as great as
ten miles, q distance at which the
planes wero invisible from the tele-
phone station. The planes communi-
Gated with each other over the same
distance. at which distance, OF course,

as far as the facts are known, all OF

that Of others, and others undertaking

paratus and methods similar to, II not
Identical with, that Of the Bell system.
On May %, 1917, about month after
our entry into the war, Geenral Squler,
Chief Signal Ofllcer Of the United
States Army, sent for Dr. Jewett chief
engineer OF the Western Electric Com
pany, 10 come 10 Washington to confer
with him In reference TO the matter OF
equipping airplanes with wireless tele-
phone apparatus. At this conference,
besides General Squier and DR.. Jewett,
there were present Mr. Graft, one Of
Or. Jewott's principal assistants; Cap
tain, now Colonel c. c. Culver, OF the
Signal Corps, and Major Reece, OF the
British Army Air Service. This confer
erce discussed the possibility OF pro-
viding airplanes with wireless tele-
phone service, and so promising were
the reports which Or. Jewet. was ablo
TO make with reference 10 the wireless
telephone system developed by the Bell
engineers that he was ordered In writ
ing by General Squler TO proceed with
the development work on these systems
and 10 actually equip planes.
AS a result Of the work which the
Bell System engineers had already done
they were able In a test at Langley
Field about the first Of July. 1917. actu-
ally to demonstrate the working OF the
wireless telephone between an airplane
snd the ground, and this test gave re-
suits also showing that It was practical
TO work the system between two or
more alrplanes.
