New York, May 7 (AP)—An ordinary photographic negative today was placed in a photoradiographic machine in Honolulu, a beam of light played through it and the complicated apparatus began clicking. One four of a second later, another machine In New York, 5,136 miles away, began dotting and dashing out a copy of the negative. Twenty minutes later the machine in New York had linked in the last dot of a complete positive—making a success of the transmission of a photograph by radio across the Pacific Ocean.

Seven times this process was repeated and seven pictures of persons and events connected with the Hawaiian maneuvers of the American army and navy of last week appeared in early afternoon editions of New York newspapers.
