Supplementing nation-wide broadcasting on an international scale, America has continued to develop short-wave stations which have proved their great worth dur- ing the past year. Through these stations news and information have been broadcast. Short waves have linked the United Nations; they have actually "poured" news into invaded countries. An outstanding example of the usefulness of short THIS SAILOR IS STANDING RADIO WATCH ABOARD A U. S. BATTLESHIP. — (Official U. S.

Radiophotos are on the wing from more points on the map than were possible a year ago. RCA, New York, now receives and sends pictures from London, Stockholm, Cairo, Moscow and Buenos Aires, while the terminal at San Fran- cisco plucks pictures from space from Melbourne and Honolulu. Only the end of the war can re- veal the great part the communica- tions men have played, and how fortunate America is in having a world-wide radio system second to none in coverage and efficiency. It is a thrill to see messages from across the seas roll out of the auto- matic tape recorder at many times the rate before the war. In World War I, reception at 30 words a minute on an overseas circuit was considered fast. The bulwark of all this achieve- ment in radio communications is scientific research. An all-important center of this research is the new RCA Laboratories opened in 1942— dedicated to help win the war by giving America's fighting men the greatest resources of science, engi- neering and production. When peace returns, the same men of sci- ence will devote the results of their wartime research to develop new and useful products and services for the post-war era. Radio serves the nation in peace as well as in war. THE FAMED RADIO "WALKIE-TALKIE" USED BY U. S. ARMY IN THE FIELD. — (U. S. Signal Corps Photo.) RADIO AGE 29]
