In all prob- | 2bility that will be “wired radio” and not_just plain radio. Television is still within the laboratory, from the radio point of view, but it is entirely feasible by wire, according to engineers. That | is. an event may be recorded and trans- mitted to a motion picture screen hun- | o~ dreds of miles away by relaying the im- | pulses by wire, just s chain radio pro- grams are relayed from one station to another. This, according to observers. | ® olle probably is the thought that is lurking | -~ z in the minds of the executives of the organizations aligned in the projected merger. Should the merger plans materialize. | it iz considered probable that other consolidations will follow. Instead of | keen competition between the movies and radio. the situation would resolve 'I'!I.RUTHE itself into a business opposition be- tween combinations of radio-picture or- ganizations. Radio engineers believe the princivle of television from the radio standpoint | is entirely practicable. but still too com- plicated and too expensive to become a public service. There would be se- vere limitations as to the number of radio television stations that could TRUE TONE BY TEST operate, because of the wide band of frequencies required to transmit tele- vision signals with good results. Just what this initial step in the di- reetion of combining movies with radio will lead to is hard to foretell. It may | mean that eventually the public will get its yaudeville, movies, music and drama at ‘home through the development of television and audible radio with per- fect. synchronization. Or it may mean | that the show houses will “put on” | radio shows from one central point, transmitting a_combination of visible | and audible radio.
