Supremacy in #the ether, from the point of view of the national defense, our humanitarian endeavors through- out the world and our world-wide commercial interests, on which na- tional prosperity depends, may be of vastly more importance in the’future than supremacy on the seas, in the air or as regards forces on. land.

Areas of Operation. The effective areas of operation of the sea, air and land forces or agen- cles are restricted to their respective elements, whereas the ether is not fe- stricted, but surrounds and permeates all three. Submarines, submerged at sea, no#w receive messages by radio from vessels on the surface over considerable distance. Aircraft i fiight readily communicate with land, and signals may be picked up. from receiving _antennas buried several feet in the earth. Light and heat from the sun, which spreads over other plants as well as our own, are forms of ether ‘motion,: but of ex- tremely shoft wave lengths as com- pared to those produced artificially by man, so to speak, for use’in radio. According tosthe accepted theory, the earth is immersed n an illimit- able ocean of ather. in-a sea of It, just water. Who is the individual possessing sufficienit knowledge and foresight to assure us that this agency will als Ways be used merely as a means of communicating through space and for providing delightful entertainment for voung and old? For industrial purposes, such as, for example, the possible utllization of the ether as a carrier and distributer of _industrial electrieal power, it has scarcely been considered. 1t is at present & harmless agency, beneficially used to exchange com- munications with “ships at sea and between ships, dt sea, with aircraft in_flight, with countries in healthy competition with the trans- ocean cables where cables exist; and with counitries which-have few. or, nd outlets to the sea, and with remate, solated arel e ihim the interior of oir own Alaska. . xdt 1s Ihdeed a my(-n:zfl us lanney‘ and né man can say ‘developmen in the radlo art will Mot take pldcei such that it may be convérted ffom a harmless medjum. for exchanging communications and affording -enter- tainment to a harmful agency of force. Experiments All Over World. Radio research and experimental ork are constantly being carried on o all of the civilized countries of the world, and developments are con- stantly being made which improve and augment the general radio service. Obviously, it is the duty of those entrusted with governmental respon- sibility in radio_to see to it that we at least keep. abreast, if not in ad- vance, of the developments in the ra- dio art. Obviotisly, 4180, this responsibility has rested principally with the Navy, because, by the very nature of things, radio has been and is now principally applicable to our naval and maritime interests. 1t has fishes do In already profoundly affected naval tacties, and, merely as & me- dium of communication, it is a petent weapon of offense and defense in con- nection with maneuvering, with the moyements - of detiached units,’ etd, and it is applicable for udd for other offensive and defensive purposes. - A powerful fleet at sea today. equipped with all modern implements gf naval warfate, but lacking in ra- o, even for purposes of comminica- | fion only, would be placed at as great a disadvantage with a similar oppos- ing fleet equipped with radi6 and ‘manned with efficient radio personnel as would a band of well armed bilnd men on land opposed to a similar band of armed men possessed of their sight.
