De Forest, Minneapolis Inventive en- glneer, announced tonight. Mr. De Forest has been engaged in electrical engineering inventive work for the past twenty years, and has recently cvolved the plan of a tem that will bring about many ohanges when completed and given to the world, A misconception that private is limited t code transm und that part; to-party mervice on any other bsls impracticable, if not impossible. Prog- ress has been limited by the erroneous, idea of “waves tlon. Some of th have disproved t Dr. Steinmets, wavek” Others intent theory hav De Forest cla Cont to Be Nominal. The forthcoming silent system of will provide f tinuously ac he said, 4 n their « ridiculed this ided, Mr. veless wireless gentral station con- ve und with both send- ing and receiving elements, which are identical in truction and operate with perfect current constraint with- out the use of pulsatio or any al- ternation effects whatsoever. Offices and residences will be equipped with & small instrument, the cost of which will be nominal, and by an automatic signal will be put in touch with the party desired by a system of number- ing. The system. the will be limited to the two connected sta- tions. The future of tho science of radio is_so inconceivable, De_Forest e not inter- sted In its commerclal application. and scientists have made few real a vances during the last score of years to indicate their faith in its future. It will remain for the younger ge eration to apply new principles and develop its possibilities, he said. Standardization of radio equipment is the first step in the advance of the science, Mr. De Forest belleves, and toward that end he has designed sim- slified colls and other apparatus, the nperation of which is worked out on a. mathematical basis, rather than through process of experimentation.
