In this article the author presents information related to the emerging technologies in mass media in the U.S. during 1939. Wires now carrying news pictures and offset presses already installed in printing plants are jointly humming a song, and newspapermen know it to facilities are available. be a song of social significance. A photograph of an eight-column newspaper page can be sent by wire as easily as a photograph of an airplane crash. These developments come as a shock to the newspaper business because, while it has played a considerable part in developing the transmission of photographs by wire, it has not been equally aware of changes in the commercial-printing industry.
