Heinl Radio News Service 5/22/46 TRADE NOTES : A new direct high-speed radiotelegraph circuit between New York and Belgrade, Yugoslavia, was opened Tuesday by RCA Com¬ munications, Inc., Thompson H. Mitchell, Executive Vice-President, announced. The Belgrade terminal is operated by the Yugoslavia Telegraph Administration. Don McNeill, m.c. of the Breakfast Club, originating in Chicago and broadcast over the American Broadcasting Network, took time out to salute and congratulate Station WNBH, New Bedford, Mass. , on its 25 years of broadcasting. To which we would like to add our congratulations. The OPA has authorized resellers of mica capacitors, which are used in practically all high voltage electronic circuits, effective May 27, 1946, to pass on the percentage increases in their net costs resulting from a previously greater increase in manu¬ facturers* prices. Formerly, war requirements took the total out¬ put of these products and resellers were not involved. Honoring Samuel F. B. Morse, inventor of the electric telegraph, his first message, "What Hath God Wrought”, signed by Miss Margaret Truman, daughter of the President, will be flashed from the Capitol in Washington by radio-facsimile to a moving train, Friday, May 24th, the 102nd anniversary of the sending of the first me ssage. The event will mark the end of weeks of tests by the engi¬ neers of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, Bendix Radio Division, and Press Wireless Manufacturing Corp. , which develoDed the fac¬ simile equipment. Cross-country flight by private pilots can be immeasur¬ ably safer through the use of revolutionary new radio equipment which will make available for the first time to private fliers the radio navigation and landing aids used by military and commercial pilots. The equipment was demonstrated at the closing session of the New York State Aviation Council’s convention at the Westchester County Airport, White Plains, New York, by the Federal Telecommuni¬ cation Laboratories. Federal engineers developed both the very high frequency (VHF) system of radio range beacons, which are now replac¬ ing the old low frequency beacons as the radio markers of the na¬ tion* s airways, and the instrument landing system. The International Re vl e w of the International Telephone and Telegraph Corp. , includes in its contents for May the following articles: "Via the Moon Moon radio circuit under development"; "ACR Services Communications Needs of the U.N. " special branch office of American Cable & Radio handles conference traffic; and "World Wide 3uilding Program Highlights I.T.& T. Peace Plans. " 15
