AERIAL EYE PUTS
GROUND IN RELIEF
Dr.. C. F. Jenkins Explains
Wonders of New Radio.
Movie Device.

Federal radio officials were present
at the formal opening last night Of a
new radio station, which its owner ex-
poets will play pioneer role In a new
field of Misunderstanding Of the
earth from airplanes in flight.
The station, located on the Brooke
vile pike near Rockville, was con-
structed by DR.. c. Francis Jenkins
Washington's radio wizard" with the
authority of the Federal Radio Com
mission. Several officials were among
the small company Of invited guests
at the ceremonies last night.
Representatives Of the Army and
Navy also attended the opening. The
military branches of the Government
have manifested interest in DR.. Jenkins
prediction that the new airplane "tele-
visor" also referred to as the aerial
eye" will revolutionize warfare. With
it, he believes, general headquarters of
an army may watch developments at
the front as they occur.

The Radio Commission was ltpre-
sented by Capt. Guy Hill, u. 8. A.. hief
engineer of the commission. and George
S. Smith, head of the license division.
Others present included Lieut.. E. X.
Jet, naval radio expert: Lieut.. A. l..
Becker, u. S. N, detailed on radio 1e-
search work at Yale University: George
A. Sutton, Franklin Y. Gates and
George Y. Jarvis.
The spectators watched the Inaugural
ton Of a regular nightly broadcast OF
radio-movies, in silhouette. They were
told television programs would be put
on the air later. The station will at
tempt to rebroadcast scenes radioed
from the Jenkins flying laboratory" as
it scars over Washington. The inventor
answered many questions regarding
technical phases OF his proposed air
plane experiments. and he expressed
confidence they would succeed, barring
unforeseen obstacles.
A Complicated Device.

vice which will scan the earth as the
what it "sees" by radio to the ground
station, is under construction in the

that his new station Is the first high
powered tranSmltter for the broadcast
ing of radio movies and television on a
regular schedule. Amateur television
fans and other experimenters in all
parts of the country compose the sta
tons audience"
The station has a frequency of
1900 kilocycles and an authorized
power of 5000 watts. Heretofore the
jenkins movies have been broadcast
three times a week from his 50-watt
