approximately $500, 600. information
al telegraph service through these

The stations are 90 be equipped
with the latest type Of high-power
shortwave directive transmitters re-
Gently developed By the Radio Cor
poration. They will contain the latest
devices for automatic high-speed
transmission and reception of radio
messages.
The stations will be so equipped,
said Mr.. Sarnoff. that facsimile de-
vices may be attached when facsimile
comes into general use. Chinese writ
ing is by characters which have no

Is no alphabet. The facsimile process
will perhaps make telegraphy in
