Disembodied trunk size device world s largest Mouth May Alert whole cities Menlo Park Calif. A some Day a great voice from the sky May warn people of an i Pendi i nuclear attack and Tell them what to do. Its stentorian tones could be made loud and Clear enough to be understood by the population of a whole City. Or it might be used As a propaganda mouthpiece to Tell a captive people that an attempt is being made to liberate them to advise people on a stricken ship that their Rescue is under Way to direct troops in Battle fire fighters in action and motorists in Miles Long traffic jams. The voice would come from the loudest Mouth in the world a disembodied thing about the size of a wardrobe trunk suspended from a plane helicopter balloon or Parachute. Call it Sam this contrivance is an improved Type of instrument first developed a couple of years ago by Stanford research Institute. It is called the Stanford airstream Modulator Sam for Short. Most loudspeakers merely intensify a ready made sound with vibrating diaphragm. Sam works on the principle of the human voice a Stream of controlled air modulated to produce sound. It can throw its voice a mile and half or More. As an alarm facility Sam is better than a Siren because it. Can be specific. People May forget what the Wail of a Siren  uses Plain words. The Parachute Model developed by Cook research Here weighs Only laboratories 100 pounds about one sixth the weight of a big conventional Loudspeaker system. For its airstream it Burns rocket fuel. The escaping Jet of Gas is just As Good As a Stream of air for producing loud talk. It reproduces on a big scale a voice from a recording tape within its innards or it can amplify a voice from a built in radio receiver. Means of using this Model of Sam says the Institute is dropped from a High flying plane. A drag Chute permits it to fall rapidly at first. When it s about a mile above the ground a larger Chute opens and permits itto drop slowly and talk fast for about five minutes. To Blanket a Large area several Sams might be used the Institute says. The idea possibly May be useful in controlling smog. Intense sound makes molecules dance vigorously and mix More readily than when they Are comparatively Calm. A diminutive Sam hooked to the exhaust pipe of an automobile might stir up the molecules of the exhaust gases and Speed their con version into less harmful com pounds by catalytic action the Institute reports. Some researchers Are considering Sam As a Means of testing metals for sonic fatigue. Metals in a plane suffer from the vibration produced by the sound of its Jet engines. For Laboratory testing for fatigue these same engines Are used. Sam might be Able to do the Job the Institute says but there Are problems to reworked out. Another possibility is that Sam could take the place of the largest pipes in a pipe Organ. Some of these pipes Are 64 feet High. Loan activity for i Homes drops 4 pet.
