32 MARINE REVIEW Radio Makes Ships Pay Your steamer leaves her wharf bound for a port a thousand miles away. She has only half a cargo. One day later you learn that she can pick up a cargo at a half-way port. You send her captain this radiogram: Captain Jackson, S. S. Benjamin Franklin, en route Boston from Colon. Stop at Havana or two thousand tons general cargo for discharge New York. Then proceed Boston, By picking up that cargo your steamer is able to make money. With- out radio she would have lost a { money-making opportunity. Systematic development of wireless by the Radio Corporation of America over a period of twenty years has made it possible for shipowners to com- municate with captains at sea, surely, quickly and inexpensively. Hundreds of vessels are now equipped with the scientifically devel- oped apparatus of the Radio Corpora- tion of America. This apparatus always embodies the highest engineering skill. For behind the Radio Corporation of America stand the splendidly equipped Research Laboratories of the General Electric Company, the American Telephone and Telegraph Company, the Western Electric Company and the Westing- house Electric and Manufacturing Company, where, year in and year out, eminent physicists conduct inves- tigations that result in new radio ad- vances. No other company enjoys the benefit of this scientific research in the field of radio communication.

Drop us a post- card and let us send you this circular. Todd Mechanical Oil Burners are the fin- ished product of years of untiring experi- mentation in burning fuel oil mechanically. They represent the most recent and highly efficient development in this field. As a re- sult, they are often specified to replace other types of burners. The system is equally correct and econom- ical either for land or marine practice. Remember that Todd has equipped a thou- sand ships with complete Fuel Oil Burning installations. We carry a full line of parts for both the Todd and the White Burner and manufacturecomplete heating, pumping,and straining outfits.
