It is probable that Exhibit D, above, is an effort by Tesla to clear up the questions raised by Soviet engineers after the subject dis— closure had been made. There is no evidence that the inven- tions and Snfornation referred to in thie agreement are other than those described in a number of Tesla's papers and pub- ished articles, It should therefore be expected, and it is substantiated by Exhibit D, that this disclosure subsequently proved unworkeble. 2 An oxanination of severel items of scentific apparatus emong the Tesla efforts st the Manhattan Warehouse and in a deposit bor at the Governor Clintoa Hotel showed those to be standard electrical meaamuring Anptruments in common use several decades agoe 7 JOHN G, TROMP, fd q Technical Aide, we a Division 14, MIRC.

By PAULINE KLOPACKA by Nikola Tesla, who came to this ‘country from the land of the South Slave when he was 28 years of age It was at midnight between July 9 and 10 in 1856 that a son, Nikole, was born to the Rev. Milutin Teale and Djouks, his wife, in the little Serbian village of Smiljan, in the province of Lika. Now 2 part of Yugoslavia, it was at that time under ‘Austro-Hungarian rule TTeala’s father, a Serb, was a priest of the Greek Church, and his mother of distinguished Serbian family, came from a long line of inventors. Both father and mother gave to the child a valuable heritage and culture developed and paseed on by ancestral families that had been community leaders for many generations ‘i was at rst planned that the son prepare for the priesthood but Nikola would have none of this. Physics and mathematics fase him. He would be a teacher of these favorite subjects, Bat then he switched to elec: trical engineering and 25 a graduate of Prague University— earlier training had been obtained at the Graz Polytechnic in Austria— he was set for his fret job. ‘At that time the American Tele- phone System was bronght to Europe and an inetallation set up in Buda- pest, where Tesla was « successful applicant for « position NHREE years later, in 1884, he was U.S. Bound.
