BROADCASTING FILMS
REVOLUTIONARY BRITISH INVENTION. We are on the eve of tremendous developments along the lines of “seeing by wireless.” In the race in which scientists and inventors of many countries arc engaging, British inventors a.re well in the van. The broadcasting of films is ia possibility brought within range of realisation by an invention called tile Television, tlie patent of the General Radio Company, of London. It is the joint invention of Mr W. S. Stephenson, general manager of the company, and Mr George Walton, an engineer employed by tho firm. The Television transmits sounds and images simultaneously, so that tho broadoatcher will be able to watch every action of a speaker, singer or band while listening to their delivery. It is stated unofficially that moving as well as stationary objects have been transmitted in natural colour, distance proving no obstacle. The invention is still in process of completion.
