Great strides have been made in perfecting television which may soon become a household requirement. Many obstacles have already been hurdled and many more will soon be overcome. The most widely publicized report of its success was on the occasion of the Louis-Conn heavyweight battle.
Contributing to television, which as yet does not have a long range of receptivity and has usually required studio performan¬ ces, is the coaxial cable now being perfected. This consists of a single copper-core cable which permits multi frequency channels to operate over it simultaneously, thus providing the means of trans¬ mitting the numerous frequencies required. The coaxial cable also provides facilities whereby many individual messages, either tele¬ graph or telephone or both, can be transmitter simultaneously.
The television receiving set now being used has a small screen, but the trend is toward larger images as the accompanying illustration of a receiver soon to be in production indicates. At present the transmitted image is black and white but sooner or later the scene of action will be presented in its true colors.
The transmission of all types of written as well as print¬ ed material by wire and radio in the process known as facsimile was perfected during the war.
A Western company has received permission from the FCC to attempt to connect existing phone equipment with remote places by radio telephone and power line carrier systems. This will provide telephone facilities to places which are without communication ser¬ vices because of the prohibitive cost of constructing pole lines and equipment.

SOVIET RADIO PREPARATIONS ARE GOING STRONG
The Soviet radio network is reported by the U. S. Commerce Department based upon dispatches of the Soviet press, to have been more powerful, extensive, and efficient at the end of 1945 than it was before the war. During 1945, 700 radio stations were recon¬ structed or built and 706,000 loud-speakers were installed.
All stations in formerly occupied areas reportedly have been restored, and radio networks in Latvia, Estonia, and Lithuania have been rebuilt. A powerful central station was built in Kiev in 1945, and Moscow has two new substations.
Plans for 1946 call for the installation of 600,000 addi¬ tional loud-speakers, improvement of the transmission on the exist¬ ing network, and replacement of old equipment in about 800 stations, most of which are in liberated areas.
