n"As soon as [the
Wardenclyffe plant is] completed, it will be possible for
na business man in New York
to dictate instructions, and have them
ninstantly
appear in type at his office in London or elsewhere. He will be
nable
to call up, from his desk, and talk to any telephone subscriber on
nthe
globe, without any change whatever in the existing equipment.
nAn inexpensive instrument,
not bigger than a watch, will enable
nits bearer to hear
anywhere, on sea or land, music or song, the speech
nof
a political leader, the address of an eminent man of science, or
nthe sermon of an eloquent
clergyman, delivered in some other place,
nhowever distant. In the
same manner any picture, character, drawing,
nor print can be transferred
from one to another place ..."
