RADIO MOVIES

Is the day close at hand when moving picture films will be
broadcasted by wireless, enabling families to have the best
movies right in their homes, on a sheet pinned to the WALTZ
Impossible, you say Your ancestors said the same thing
less and autos when these inventions were first predicted By
clarvoyant visionaries. -
C. Francis Jenkins has successfully made the first step
toward radio movies. -
He exhibits photographs of images, which he transmitted
by wireless during his experiments.
This happens in the laboratory Of the General Electric
Company, at Lynn, Mass, during the annual convention of the
Society of Motion Picture Engineers.
Thirty-two years ago, Elisha Gray invented the telauto-
graph. This instrument reproduces handwriting and draw
you have seen telephone girls in big hotels use such a device,
writing an order on a pad before them, while the writing is
simultaneously duplicated by a machine in the kitchen. Z
This copying telegraph apparatus was expanded into a,
photograph-sender in 1906 by Carbonnelli, the Belgian, who
had great success at telegraphing pictures by a system of re-
producing dots of black, same as the tiny dots you see all
over photographs in newspapers.
Telephotography is extremely complicated. But what its
students have in mind has spread out among the people as a
vague dream of an attachment by which you look into a
glass and see what the party was doing at the other end of
the telephone wire. "a
As far back as 1914, Prof. A. Korn was lecturing in
Vienna about the possibility Of sending movies by wireless.
Did you ever see a miragei If not, you know about
them-the appearance in the sky of a perfect picture of some
distant city, lake or mountain.
That is one Of natures ways of broadcasting pictures.
When you watch the movements of people or objects.
you are seeing natures original wireless-movie system-and
it's all as mechanical as operating a camera.
The principle of radio movies exists in nature. That in
ventors may learn how to copy nature and send movies by
wireless, requires no great stretch OF the imagination. 1t
may not come in our day. But it will come eventually.
In a movie theatre, light waves transmit a moving picture
from the projecting machine to the silver screen, usually about
Is feet. The powerful Hertzian waves may extend that rs
feet to thousands of miles.

WASHINGTON MAY BE NEW
CONVENTION CITY
Daily Letter by Frederic j. Haskin

WASHINGTON, May 9:-That
Washington may soon win the title
of Convention City is the prophecy
of some old inhabitants. They say
that convention meetings in the ma
tional capital grow in size and num-
Der every year.
No one keeps an official record OF
the organizations and their dele
gates that visit the city. but accord
Ing to street car conductors, White
House guards. and watchmen In the
government buildings, this spring is
proving a record breaker for dele
cations.
There is no season of the year
when Washington is not entertain
ing visitors who have gathered from
the ends of the country to discuss
| bylaws and election of officers and
| to take a look at the government in
action. But spring is the most fav-
orable time for seeing Washington.
and therefore spring always brings
an unusually large assortment ii
convention followers. The capital
with its trees bursting into pale
green, its cherry blossom drive
along the tidal basin, and its gay
flower beds, is at its best. Later.
Washington settles down to hot
weather-though the Chamber of
Commerce never admits it. and now
and then displays impressive statis-
tics and comparative reports of the
Weather Bureau showing that the
capital with it's 1885, 900 trees, its
5000 acres of parks, and its river
breeze is not SO hot as it is some
times represented.
In spite of these encouraging bull

Already, this year. the Daughters
OF the American Revolution and the
Daughters of 1912 have advanced
upon Washington with fiuttering
badges. The League of American
Penwomen has gathered together It's
collection of literary notables and
celebrated its t~wenty-ffth anniver-
sary with a book fair. breakfast,
carnival ball. and other functions.
And with less pomp and ceremony,
1000 oculists and several other
scientific groups have been confer

tween banquets and important ses-
sions of sightseeing.
Serious Sightseeing
Sightseeing is a serious business
for the visiting delegate. There is
a combination exposition, circus,
state fair, and liberal education per-
petually available in the govern
ment buildings. There is the Gull
tural benefit to be derived from
hearing the roll call in the senate.
and there are great opportunities
for exercise. Anyone walking w

monument has to admit that there's
