Coleman 1302 College St. Phone 400 Develops Invisible Ray Telephone A secret voice-ray telephone that works on invisible light was devel oped by the navy during the war it was revealed today. Details are still shrouded by se curity restrictions, but an official explained that its source is infrared rays. It has a “line-of-sight” range, the same as television. It eliminates freak interception or interference by an enemy miles away as was possible -with ultra- high radio frequencies. Conversations can be held be tween nearby sh'ps or from ship to shore. But the official explained that the invisible rays will not pen etrate fog, water or anything that stops a visible light ray. The navy disclosed last June that it had in infrared searchlight for blinker messages between ships, but this is the first acknowledge ment that an ordinary conservation by infrared rays is possible. Both the Germans and Japanese had infrared equipment, the navy expert said, but our capture of this eqipment in 194'' and 1945 did not aid United Sta: s researcn in particular. The line of our in frared work was pretty well laid down by that time, he said, and our engineers went ahead with their own ideas. The range of the infrared tele phone is limited to the horizon— about eight miles from the bridge of a destroyer. But in a land campaign messages could be relay ed from point to point over country impassable for wire-stringing crews and where radio calls might be in tercepted. The navy let production contracts for the equipment following suc cessful tests in 1943 and 1944 but is still reluctant to discuss how far it has progressed in development, or the scope of its program. A number of unversities and com panies collaborated in research and development of the voice ray in cluding Northwestern, Ohio State, University of Michigan, Cover Dual Signal Systems of Chicago, West- inghouse, General Electric, and Polanoid corporation.
