"THE MOVING FINGER WRITES —" 29 to service the whole nation—and keeping the net in good running order—will call for astro- nomical expenditures, far out-of-line with pres- ent-day charges for network sound transmission. * * * Here is the outlook on post-war television, *rom a technical point of view. The quality of trie pictures will be all that the radio audience can desire. Natural color is possible. But no rea- sonably-priced system for linking stations in- stantaneously across long distances has appeared on the experimental horizon. Television researchers have given us satisfac- tory machinery for the local transmission of radio pictures. If these pictures are worth see- ing, Americans en masse will invite television to be a guest in their living rooms.
