Mark R sullivan, San francisco, president and director of the Pacific Telephone and Telegraph company said in an address Thursday night: " Just what form the future telephone will take is, of course, pure speculation. Here is my prophecy:" in its final development the telephone will be carried about by the individual, perhaps as we carry a watch today. It probably will require no dial or equivalent, and I think the users will be able to see each other, if they want, as they talk. "Who knows but what it may actually translate from one language to another?"
