This achievement, which was never obtained before, is the result of what is known as tne Bell lAiud Speaker. Possibilities of Voice Transmission. While the transmission of the President's voice to waiting thou sands in New York and Sun Fran cisco was a patriotic contribution on the part of the American Tele phone & Telegraph Company, it marked what is expected to be the most notable development in voice transmission of the century. It opens the possibility of reaching practically the entire United States in one dav with the spoken word. Colonel John J. Carty, head of the Bell system department of develop ment and research, who brought the mechanism which transmitted the President's voice to its present hicrh state of nerfection. is the man who was in charge of the lines of telephonic communication for tlie American Expeditionary Forces in France. He is a wizard ol the wires. When' Colonel Carty was asked what he considered the most im portant feature of the Bill loud speaker development, he said, "The change that it is bound to create in the art of oratory. Heretofore orators have been chosen largely for their loud voices, their capacity to reach the ears of those at the back of the hall. We will make it possible for any ordinary man with common sense, possessing the aver age speaking voice, to get his thoughts into the minds of as many auditors as he may want to reach. Effective addresses by our plan can be made by men speaking no louder than a chairman does when he re ports to his board of directors, or when a teacher speaks to his.stu dents in the classroom." the honrt of the aiitninoliilo, nnd if proii er attention in given to batU'ry installn tiou. jnotor. ti'oulili'M are quickly iitiiiiiuiz ed.
