BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, July ia device to
eliminate listening in" or interfer-
ence in, radio transmission was de-
scribed. today by John Hays Ham
mond, jr., who returned yesterday
from Italy, where he had spent two
months in radio work.
Complete isolation of sender and
receiver is afforded by a method of
sending out rays which have curves
and dents in them, similar to the rise
and fall of the pulse on a nurses
chart, according to Mr.. Hammond.
Only the receiver familiar with the
wave type can read the message.
The new method of transmission
will also make II possible to Hash
complete pages of print across the
Atlantic Ocean by radio, Mr.. Ham
mond predicts.
The inventor expects to conduct ex-
periments at the Vatican Observatory
in connection with radio reception
for astronomical observations.
I'm q private audience with the
Pope" Mr.. Hammond said, IT was
interested to learn Of his enthusiasm
over radio matters, and he discussed
with me the application of my work
to the needs of his ohservatories."
