innumerable purposes, both in war and peace. Through the universal adoption of this system, ideal conditions for the main- tenance of law and order will be realized, for then the energy necessary to the enforcement of right and justice will be nor- mally productive, yet potential, ps in any moment available, for attack and defense. The power transmitted need not be nec- essarily destructive, for, if distance is made to depend upon it, its withdrawal or supply will bring about the same results as those now accomplished by force of arms." Having read the article in NEXUS, the next stop was to the pub- lic library. I pulled the Eastlund patent records and a cold chill ran through me as I realised that the diagrams I was seeing were remi- niscent of patents issued to Nikola Tesla in the late 19th and early 20th century. Tesla was most well-known for having obtained, in 1888, patents for his entire system of polyphase AC power which remains today the world standard. I next noted the reference sources in the patent itself: two articles from The New York Times. When I reviewed the articles, they were about Tesla.

"The beam, he states, involves four new inventions, two of which already have been tested. One of these is a method and apparatus for producing rays 'and other manifestations or ener- gy' in free air, eliminating the necessity for a high vacuum; a second is a method and process for producing 'very great elec- trical force’; the third is a method for amplifying this force; and the fourth is a new method for producing 'a tremendous electri- cal repelling force'. This would be the projector, or gun, of the system. The voltage for propelling the beam to its objective, according to the inventor, will attain a potential of 50,000,000 volts. "With this enormous voltage, he said, microscopic electrical particles of matter will be catapulted on their mission of defen- sive destruction.

"It is not a time,' said Dr Tesla yesterday, 'to go into the details of this thing. It is founded upon a principle that means great things in peace; it can be used for great things in war. But | repeat, this is no time to talk of such things.'
