FUTURE OF TELEVISION.
REMARKABLE POSSIBILITIES. A telephone conversation in which the speakers will .see as well as hear each other is nearer to us than the sceptics imagine (says a London message). , . . . , Its introduction is to be recommended to the Post Office by a special committee appointed to study television and advise on liow it can be made a public service. The News-Chronicle says it understands that the committee will recommend to the Postmaster-General: (1) Televised talkies. (2) A chain of ultra-short-wave transmitters, owing to their present maximum range of 20 to 30 miles.. (3) Telephone television, enabling subscribers to see their callers. (4) Facilities for private firms to conduct research because television plays and outdoor events are still poor. Many radio factories arc ready to produce television receivers. The Postmaster-General (Sir Kingsley Wood) thinks that 1935 will see the realisation of some such _ scheme for the general use of television.
