They had heard too much about the mys terious effect uf violet rays. "Hut we proved with the Did of army aeronautical engineers at Wright fifld that the liKht was not harmful. You see, its rays are near the ultra violet spectrum, but above the actual ultra violet and below the harmful band." So impressed were United States army officials by the merit of "black ight that they have ordered m- Nlallation of fiie invention in every fighting plane.

"Do you recall how they used to black out the theater in the old vaudeville, leaving only a beautiful girl on the stage illum inated'' That was the same prin ciple. Our light is just a little more te hnicnl. "You see. 'black light Is just an application; not an invention." There was a huge need for such a d.vice as "black light" in modern aeronautics, especially since the ad vent of blackouts. Until its inven tion, airplane manufacturers had uiacd a fluorescent radium mixture on the dials which was often illegible and laomelimc inflicted radium poi soning on the pilots. Even after "black light was con ceived it was not practical, since it operates on alternating current and planes are powered with direct cur rent. But Gars tang solved that prob lem also with an extremely light current inverter designed especially for changing DC to AC for the black light." Each unit of "black light costs about $130 for installation. Accord ing to Gars tang, small planes require from one to three units while larger planes such as flying fortresses re quire as many as six to 10 units.
