[Illustration: GENERAL ELECTRIC COMPANY In Reply Refer to WEST LYNN,
MASS. November 28, 1922. Mr. C. Francis Jenkins, 1519 Connecticut Ave.,
Washington, D.C. Dear Mr. Jenkins: I am in receipt of yours of November
25th, enclosing the radio picture, for which I thank you. It certainly
shows a successful result. When I first read of your prismatic ring
arrangement in the “Scientific American”, I recognized that it was the
solution of a problem which I had often thought of as possible, and I
can well understand that it may have applications which we do not even
now think of. It is perfectly possible, as you say, to employ the method
of radio transmission of pictures on a very considerable scale, which
would hardly be possible in transmitting them by the ordinary telegraph.
With best regards, and gratification to know that you are progressing, I
am, Very truly yours, Elihu Thomson]
