Preston Pratt, Chicago scientist and
inventor. A solution, he adds, lies In
a decrease of power and an increase
in potential or voltage to balance the
loss in wattage or power.
DR.. Pratt, who for 40 years has
been delving into the mysteries of
communication, both wire and wire
less, says that broadcast transmission
could cover as great distance with
high potential and low wattage as
under the present reverse system.
Distance is determined entirely by
the potential and not the wattage." +"
he explains. For example, trans.
mitting potential of 500 900 volts with
a wattage of five will cover q greater
distance than the use of So 900 watts.

sailors. They may have few
friendly fights, but British sailors
would not fraternize at all with sail

not talk to them. Language, after
