Ho has a Motion 'picture transmission, '.cultured barltono voice, with lenkmq urnt.. imu n,.t i.r. i.. which he has made a comfort- veloped. of course, to the point of excellence achievable in "radio photon," but this degree of per lection Is only a matter of lime i and ft pood, lie believes. According to Jenkins letter, which was accompanied by sam ples of pictures sent and received by radio, the newest and most Important development in radio picture transmission, In radio movies and the motion picture in dustry generally. Is a new optical drvico called the "prismatic ring." By means of this apparatus a pencil ray of light passes through rotating glass disks, whose grad uated thicknesses "bend" the rays the same as in a prism, causing the rays to oscillate. These os cillating rays Jltiinatoly cover the whole of a negative, a picture, or an exterior scene, and In turn an impinged on a light-sensitive photo-electric cell. Tho modu lated light waves in parallel ad jacent lines are transmitted by electrical current Into radio fre quency of corresponding varia tion ami the impulses broadcast cd. They are received by. a ma chine whose perfect synchroniza tion Is achieved by a timing de vice en. ploying a tuning fork much the same ns that used for timing the automatic lelegruphfc printing machines, now widely used In dissemination of news dis patches by wire syndicates. A "home" machine already has been built whose exterior resem bles the popular cabinet phono graph, whleh is said to be cap able of producing motion pictures by mans of a patented multiple disk comprising a series of con secutive, scenes. This device also employes an application of the prismatic principle, a II ho .tgh In tills case tlie glass, element is in the form of a band Instead of n disk. I This, of course, is not for the reception of "radio pictures," but la said to afford a far more prac ticable means of producing mo tion pictures at home than has been available hitherto. It dis penses entirely with the celluloid 1 film und permits the projection of pietm-i's of virtually the same "length" and duration as the reg ulation reel. . Another variation of the .same principle is a band of glass whose outside circumference is made up of alternating surfaces, set at an eagle with the axis of the band. This is for use in high speed cam cms and slow speed projectors, it )s declared by the inventor j Jenkins declares the prismatic , ring to be the only Important de- velopmenl, aside from refinement of details, made In the motion, picture machine since Us com - j inercial Inception. The present popular type of motion picture projector, he declares, is Inher ently limited by the principle which req.ilres the film to be drawn before the lens In a series' of intermittent jerks. The pris matic ring is said to eliminate this. The rate may be growing weaker, but it will build up again. There isnl so much 'oratory to endure now. able living during hla travels over the world. lie speaks sit .lan guages fluently.
