RADIO as we know it today is not the invention of any one person or of any small number of persons. It is rather the accumulation of the results of the experiments, thoughts and practices of a large number of individuals, each stimulated to make his contribution to a sum total of knowledge. Radio communication has evolved from beginnings embedded in the purest of mathematical and physical sciences to one of the most far-reaching and sociologically significant of modern industrial activities. It has become a means of communication which is employed for almost every conceivable purpose from the business affairs of the financier to the amusement of children. As an industry it now gives employment in the United States alone to about 200,000 persons, and as a service it counts among its direct daily beneficiaries perhaps a third of our population
