856 Radio Broadcast radio energy, picked up from some powerful transmitting station, would burn out such circuits, or else seriously disturb their normal operation. This does not seem to be the case, and it can be inferred, if no better proof is available, that these stories of ammunition explosions are purely imaginary. More to the point, and far closer to realization, is the imminent completion of successful aerial flight controlled by radio and mechanical means as outlined and as noted by the authorities quoted here. Whether or not these means now being developed will find their first practical use in the arts of peace or in the arts of war remains a question that only the future can answer. We only know that the means are available, that the energies of governments and of many private individuals are being directed toward the rapid solution of the problems presented, and that so far a fair measure of success has rewarded these efforts. The wonders and mysteries wrapped in the radio art are gradually, but nevertheless surely, being unfolded, and the hand and mind of man are making use of their solution in ever widening circles of industrial, economical, social, and military activity.
