NEWS PICTURES
NOW ARE SUNG
OVER PHONE

NEW YORK, June IS GN.so.
Photos by sound are making sweet
music in the ears Of newspaper
publishers today.
The latest miracle Of science IN
picture production, that ENABLES
newspaper readers to see unusual
pictorial news events almost as
soon as they occur, is accomplish
ed by singing" pictures between
any points where telephone con-
nections can be established.
international News Photos,
which developed the invention
under the supervision of Walter
Howey, director Of I. N. p, already
has used the hoto-by-Sound pro-
cess successfully in pictures Of
actual news events.
It is practically as simple as
making q long distance telephone
call, and, equally important, no
more expensive.
Reasonable Cost
The. invention is expected to
revolutionize transmission of news
paper photos, for, as Mr.. Howey
said, "the International News
Photos machine makes it possible
to spend no money except for a
picture that is worth while, and
then only at the cost Of a phone
call. The. apparatus costs one
third Of existing telophoto equip
ment and its maintenance cost is
practically nothing"
In the face of telephone
officials statements that his pro-
posal would be terrific in cost
and would require vast floor
space for huge machine and
several tons Of batteries, Mr..
Howey's organization has devel-
oped a portable machine Of 80
pounds that can be flown to the
scene Of any exciting picture and
that requires no physical connec-
tions for transmission.
On the first picture that was
"sung" into New York and &C.
tually used in daily newspaper,
actual transmission time was is
minutes. From the time the cam
era clicked at the news event, I'M.
til the photo had been taken to
q studio, gone through the dark
room, and been transmitted to the
newspaper office in this city from
Albany, one hour and five minutes
elapsed. IMP laboratories expect
to cut the transmission time in
half.
How It's Done
A positive print Of the picture
taken in Albany was placed on a
rotating cylinder there. It rotated
In unison with one in the New
York laboratories. The link be-.
tween the cylinders was as ephen1-
eral as the sound Of a voice.
A photoelectric cell was used
to transform impulses of light
into electrical impulses which
were amplified until they could
be- heard from a loud speaker.
The sound, which is like that Of
a thin whistle, rises and falls &C.
cording to light and shade Of the
photo; white brings a loud song,
dark tones, low.
These sounds enter a telephone
receiver, the same common, desk
variety that is used in homes and
offices, and sing themselves over
the wires to the other end Of the
connection. There pair Of
sensitive coils-no wires, mind
pick UP the signals from an or.
binary telephone box.
The sounds are fed into the re.
ceiving apparatus, reproducing
themselves in terms of light and
shade.

BUILDING SHOWS
HUGE GAIN IN
MONTGOMERY

Huge increases in construction,
gains in educational facilities,
and political upsets marked the
year of 1884 in Montgomery
county, Md.
Fifteen years under the domi.
nation of regular Democrats, vot-
ers of the county on November
6 turned the reins over to a F'us'
Board Of ConAnis.
sioners, who were elected on
promises of economy.
Building construction during
the year in Montgomery in
creased more than 100000 over
the previous year, according to
Martin F. Iverson and j. Fred
Imirie, county building inspectors.
Schools Erected
Montgom merry county itself
nearly completed last year an
intensive building program which
included is schools and a com.
bined liquor dispensary and ware
house. TWO high schools, one at
Silver Spring and the other in
Bethesda Chevy Chase, were In
cluded in the projects and are
nearly ready for occupancy.
Construction of homes led in
building projects in the county.
More than 400 were built dur
ing the year.
. During the year the Board OF
County Commissioners reduced
the tax on real estate from $1.35
to 80 cents on the 500 valuation.
Drive on Gambling
Early in the year a drive to
stamp out gambling was started
in the county and short shift was
given those arrested for violation
of the rigid gaming law. Heavy
sentences were imposed on vlo-
lators and the county, officials
said, was rid of organized gam.
bling.
Two unsolved murders remained
on the books for the year. One
was that of Allan B. Wilson, news.

by gangsters in mistake for a
gambler, and the other was that

whose battered body was found

ords, however, was the solution Of
particularly brutal assault case
in Chevy Chase and the clearing
up of numerous minor crimes.

D. G.. REVELRY LASTS LATE

but it was freely admitted today
that the one that saw 1884 give
way to 1885 was the maddest
and gayest in the city's long
history.
More than half a million men
and women. Police declared it
was the largest crowd they had
ever been called upon to handle
in the city. They packed Times
Square and raised a din that
could be heard on the west side
of the Hudson River. and from
every hotel, night club, restau-
rant and bar came the unanimous
agreement that the merrymakers
had made more noise and spent
more money than at any time
since the halycon days of 1928
and 1929.
There was no end of drinking
and carousing in the gay spots,
but, surprisingly, police reported
a minimum of arrests for drunk
enesS. At the West Forty-Seventh
Street police station, in the heart
of the Broadway white light sec
tor, only two men had been ar
rested up until midnight.

PUBLIC SCHOOL
SYSTEM ENDS
LEAN YEAR

The District public school sys.
tenn today looked back on the
leanest year in it's history.
With their hopes high that the
Seventy.fourth Congress will deal
more kindly with their new budget,
school officials recalled 1884 as
the blackeSt year in the conStruc.
tion of new schools.
Since the opening of the pres
ent school term in September,
1884, not a single new building
has been opened for the relief of
the greatest congestion in the
history Of the local school system.
Few Jobs Finished
Last winter, a few construction
projects were completed, but, it
was pointed out by DR.. Frank w.
Ballou, superintendent of schools,
none of these afforded any relief
for overcroWding.
One of these projects was the
completion of the Keane School in
February. This building, an eight.
room structure, was, however, only
a replacement, and therefore did
not create any additional space to
take up the overflow in school
population.
Two others of these projects
were gymnaSiums-one at the
DouglaS-Simmons School and the
other at the Terrell, both also
completed in February-Were only
for specialized activity. The
Phelps Vocational School, com.
pleted in May, DR.. BaIou pointed
out, was also for specialized edu.
cation, and consequently was of
no use in affording additional
space where it was most needed.
Two Buildings Going Up
At the present time, construc.
tion is in progress on the Wood.
row Wilson High School and the
AnacoStia Junior High Schools,
both of which when completed
this summer, are expected to re.
lieve congestion somewhat. Funds
for these buildings were ap-
propriated in the current budget.
Additions to the Deal and
Browne Junior High Schools, both
of which were appropriated for in
| the current budget, will be con-
structed during the new year, but
at present contracts have not yet
| been LEFT for them
Construction of the Logan
School for colored pupils is ex.
pected to be completed in March
and the contract for an addition
to the Grimke School, also for
colored, has not been let.
The development of the charac,
ter education experiment in the
local schools is considered by most
educators to be one of the greatest
educational achievements in the
country during the past year.

First Lady, of

1t would take volumes to tell
the complete story of Mrs. Roose-

Perhaps the story can best be
told in the words of the Gimbel

"She has been selected not
because she is the Presidents
wife, but as an individual

done, and is doing, such indi-

for America"
