...sending was similar to that used last May for transmitting pictures by telephone (TIME, June 2). It consisted of a cylinder in which a photographic negative is placed. A beam of light strikes the cylinder which slowly rotates. Passing through the film it activates a photo-electric cell. The cell gives out electrical impulses in proportion to the strength of the light that filters through the film. The gradations of these electrical impulses are very delicate. If put upon the air, static would greatly interfere with them. Instead they are stored until a given amount (two-millionths of an ampere...
...long, at an average speed of 60 m.p.h. Far from having no gas left on arrival, she could have gone another 3,000 miles. Bringing only 32 men, she could have just as easily carried 54 and 15 tons of freight. Except for a rent in a gas cell (and that rapidly repaired), she arrived in perfect condition...
...cause of senescence, and by a new type of radiation they are stimulated to normal functioning. Dr. Herman Rubin says of the new discovery: "I have had the pleasure of using this newer method of radiation in about three hundred cases, and I have effected true rejuvenescence of cell structure in every case treated. . . . For how long a period life can be extended, no one knows. It is sufficient for the present that by reinvigorating the cell, we can turn back the hands of time...
