My dear Mr. Jenkins:
I certainly appreciate your interesting
letter of September 10th, as well
as the three photographic enclosures.
I am tremendously impressed, not only
with what you have accomplished in the
transmission of pictures by radio, but
also with the limitless possibilities
that you are opening up. It is entirely
conceivable that the work you are doing
right now may have an effect upon civilization
that will be almost revolutionary.
You must have had a corking good time
on your airplane trip from Omaha to
Chicago. Yes, we have been, undoubtedly
backward in the development of our airplane
commercial traffic. Some day we
will make up for lost time.
Cordially,
