# QST/March 1916/An Interview with the Inventor of the Crystaloi Detector

This article appeared in the March 1916 issue of QST
​ The writer, hearing the wonderful 5,000 mile record made on the Crystaloi Detector, decided to see Mr. Turney and interview him for “QST.”
One day last month, the writer found Mr. Turney in his laboratory and asked him for information concerning the use and theory of his new Detector. The publishers of “QST” take great pleasure in presenting the results of this interview.
First, Mr. Turney explained that his Crystaloi Detector was composed of a finely divided alloy, a great many particles of which are brought into contact with a highly sensitive mineral and for this reason, innumerable sensitive spots can he found with no more adjustment than turning a little thumb screw. The Crystaloi has a great advantage over other Detectors inasmuch as there are several fine, light metal points in contact with a sensitive mineral instead of the single point which most Detectors have. The Detector is so compactly made that it cannot get out of adjustment and it never loses it’s sensitiveness. Further advantages lie in the fact that there is no cost of operation;—the Crystaloi requires no battery or potentiometer and is ever ready to serve under all conditions.
“The latest record made by a Crystaloi,” said Mr. Turney, “is 5,000 miles. Mr. R. J. Rohey, of Richmond, Va., heard a station at Lahaina, Hawaiian Islands. Mr. Robey heard the station four different times. We have great hopes for the Crystaloi.”
“Are there many in use?” asked the interviewer.
“We have sold 10,000 Crystaloi’s all of which have given satisfaction, and have seen hard service. About 600 are in commercial use, and the operators are more than satisfied. They all get excellent results.”
Then the writer asked Mr. Turney if he had any new improvements in the Radio field. The reply was that several new instruments were being designed for amateur use and a catalog of the same was being prepared.

Were you at the Bay of Islands as a Trader?
    I was.
Were you a Retail Trader?
    Retail and Wholesale.
Did you keep what is called a Grog Shop?
    No, decidedly not. I sold, as every Person in the Bay of Islands did, ardent Spirits. I have sold them in Sydney, without seeing any thing of the Kind; by giving Certificates. In such a Place as New Zealand we cannot do that, but I have sold them wholesale; decidedly not retail.
You have never sold Spirits to be consumed on your Premises?
    Decidedly not.
You are well acquainted with Mr. Montefiore?
    I am.
Did you associate with him while he was at the Bay of Islands?
    He was the only Person I did associate with there, except Captain Powditch, a Person equally respectable.

# Report from the Select Committee on Steam Carriages/AppA

Appendix.
Appendix (A.)
Answers to Queries submitted by the Committee to Mr. John Macneil.
Query 1.—What is the greatest weight, in proportion to its own weight, which any Locomotive Steam Engine has been found capable of drawing upon a Rail Road, and at what velocity?
Experiment 29.
Experiment 30.
Experiment 31.
Experiment 32. (With a different Locomotive Engine.)
Experiment 33.
In this experiment the Engine was allowed to traverse a given space, to put the train of carriage into their proper velocity before the time was noted, the time was then marked until the velocity was again checked at the further end of the stage. This will explain the difference between the two distances stated in the experiment; the one was the whole distance from the commencement to the cat ​of the stage; the other was that part of the stage which the Engine passed over when the regular velocity was acquired, and before it was again diminished at the end of the stage, to stop the train; the time given was that which transpired while the Engine was passing over that space, while the velocity was uniform, and may therefore be taken as a measure of speed.
N.B.—The Railway was level, and about two miles in length, where the experiments were made.
Query 2.—What may be considered as the greatest performance of locomotive carriages previous to the Manchester and Liverpool Railway being opened?
Query 3.—What has been the greatest performance of any Engine since that period?
distance from Liverpool to Manchester, in 2 hours and 34 minutes, including 13 minutes of stoppages. The diameter of the wheels was 4 feet 6 inches.

# Proclamation 6939

Delivered on 11 October 1996.
By the President of the United States of America A Proclamation
Our Nation benefits when every American child is truly valued and cherished. We have no greater responsibility or hope for our future than our children, and the promise of a better tomorrow depends upon the love, support, education, and encouragement that we give to each of them. It is up to all of us-parents and families, schools, churches, and community organizations-to join in the critical endeavor of putting the needs of our children first. Only when we reaffirm our commitment to our children's well-being can we truly say that we are prepared for the challenges that await us in the next century.
America is a country of many blessings-a rich land, a thriving democracy, a diverse and determined people. Our culture is built on faith in freedom, and opportunity, and on the spirit of community. In a Nation of such infinite promise, too many of our children face great obstacles in reaching their full potential, and it is imperative that we not turn our backs on them.
Because safety, health, a clean environment, quality education, and economic security are the keys to a brighter future, they are necessary investments in the healthy growth and development of our children. Through measures such as expanding Head Start and child care, preserving Medicaid, enhancing child protection, protecting the environment, and increasing educational opportunity for all students, my Administration has demonstrated its commitment to ensuring that every child has the tools to become a productive citizen.
As we work together in a spirit of community, let us seek to instill confidence, hope, pride, and self-esteem in our young people. Because today's children are tomorrow's leaders, educators, and parents, all of us-adults and children-forever will benefit from this commitment.
Now, Therefore, I, William J. Clinton, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim October 13, 1996, as National Children's Day. I urge all Americans to express their love and appreciation, not only on this day but also on all days, for their children and all of the children of this Nation. I invite Federal officials, State and local governments, and particularly the American family, to join in observing this day with appropriate ceremonies and activities to honor our Nation's children.
In Witness Whereof, I have hereunto set my hand this eleventh day of October, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and ninety-six, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and twenty-first.

# Proclamation 6936

Delivered on 10 October 1996.
By the President of the United States of America A Proclamation
On October 11, we observe the 217th anniversary of the death of a great military hero from American history, General Casimir Pulaski. Every year on this date, Americans and Poles together honor this valiant soldier, who spent his life fighting for freedom on both sides of the Atlantic. General Pulaski's life and career are a vivid reminder of the strong historical bonds between Poland and the United States. These bonds have been forged not only by the millions of Polish Americans who have helped make our country great, but also by our two countries' shared dedication to the principles of liberty and independence.
Pulaski, born into a family of nobles, first fought oppression at his father's side, battling the forces of Prussia and Imperial Russia to preserve the liberty of his Polish homeland. Exiled by the Russians, he was recruited into the American colonies' Continental Army by Benjamin Franklin and brought his bravery and passion for freedom to numerous battles during the Revolutionary War. General Pulaski sacrificed his life for the cause of liberty during the siege of Savannah as he protected American troops.
In our own time, we have seen the Polish people follow the example of General Pulaski and renew their dedication to freedom-rebuilding their homeland in spite of Nazi oppression and, later, communist tyranny.
Today, Poland has regained its sovereignty and fashioned a sturdy representative democracy. For Americans and Poles alike, Casimir Pulaski's sacrifice for independence remains a model of courage and commitment that can stir us to reach new heights of democratic justice and liberty.
Now, Therefore, I, William J. Clinton, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim Friday, October 11, 1996, as General Pulaski Memorial Day. I encourage Americans everywhere to commemorate this occasion with appropriate ceremonies and activities paying tribute to Casimir Pulaski and honoring all those who carry on his mission.
In Witness Whereof, I have hereunto set my hand this tenth day of October, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and ninety-six, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and twenty-first.

# Proclamation 6945

Delivered on 21 October 1996.
By the President of the United States of America A Proclamation
This year's theme for National Consumers Week is "service signals success." Service is an indispensable element of success over the long term in both business and government: service that is responsive, convenient, and courteous, service that meets the expectations of consumers and taxpayers. Clever promotions and deceptive pricing may generate short-term profits in business. Promises alone may gain brief support for Government agencies and programs. But American consumers and taxpayers aren't easily deceived. They expect quality service, and those who cannot or do not provide it will ultimately fail.
That is why I added the right to service to the Consumer Bill of Rights. It is why we have made the reinvention of government-requiring more responsiveness and efficiency-a keystone of my Administration. It is why I issued an Executive Order that directed all executive departments and agencies of the Federal Government to embark upon a revolution to change the way they do business and establish and implement customer service standards that match or exceed the best in the private sector. And it is why our policies continue to emphasize the paramount importance of service excellence to the success of our Nation, our economy, and our efforts to compete in the global marketplace.
The goal of service excellence is not easy to attain. Consumers must demand it, and everyone in an organization, be it a business or a government agency, must be committed to it, both in everyday interactions and in longer-term goals. Their ultimate success depends on it.
Now, Therefore, I, William J. Clinton, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim October 20 through October 26, 1996, as National Consumers Week. I call upon government officials, industry leaders, and the people of the United States to recognize the vital relationship between our economy and our citizenry and to support the right of all Americans to excellence in products and services.
In Witness Whereof, I have hereunto set my hand this twenty-first day of October, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and ninety-six, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and twenty-first.

# Proclamation 6940

Delivered on 11 October 1996.
By the President of the United States of America A Proclamation
Throughout our history, America has been inspired by the courage and daring of Christopher Columbus. Like him, we are a people who dare to dream, to chart a bold course, and to surmount formidable obstacles to reach new horizons.
Columbus' arrival in North America not only confirmed his beliefs about our planet, but also initiated an epic struggle between the Old and New Worlds. Yet out of that triumphant voyage and the meeting of many peoples developed a Nation and a way of life vastly unlike those Columbus left behind.
The expedition that Columbus-an Italian supported by the Spanish Crown-began more than 500 years ago, continues today as we experience and celebrate the vibrant influences of varied civilizations, not only from Europe, but also from around the world. America is stronger because of this diversity, and the democracy we cherish flourishes in the great mosaic we have created since 1492. Americans of Italian and Spanish heritage can be particularly proud, not only of Columbus' achievements, but also of their own contributions to our country.
As we honor and remember Christopher Columbus, let us use his example as a beacon to help guide us into the 21st century. His life, his voyages, and-above all-his vision can inspire us as we prepare for the challenges that lie ahead. Let us remember that all of us, regardless of our origins, are important participants in that journey, and that our uncertainty about what lies over the horizon should not shake our faith that, together, we will succeed.
In recognition of Columbus' epic achievement, the Congress, by joint resolution of April 30, 1934 (48 Stat. 657), and an Act of June 28, 1968 (82 Stat. 250), has requested the President to proclaim the second Monday in October of each year as "Columbus Day."
Now, Therefore, I, William J. Clinton, President of the United States of America, do hereby proclaim October 14, 1996, as Columbus Day. I call upon the people of the United States to observe this day with appropriate ceremonies and activities. I also direct that the flag of the United States be displayed on all public buildings on the appointed day in honor of Christopher Columbus.
In Witness Whereof, I have hereunto set my hand this eleventh day of October, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and ninety-six, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and twenty-first.

# Proclamation 6943

Delivered on 17 October 1996.
By the President of the United States of America A Proclamation
During the dark days of World War II, nearly 100,000 soldiers of the Philippine Commonwealth Army provided a ray of hope in the Pacific as they fought alongside United States and Allied forces for 4 long years to defend and reclaim the Philippine Islands from Japanese aggression. Thousands more Filipinos joined U.S. Armed Forces immediately after the war and served in occupational duty throughout the Pacific Theater. For their extraordinary sacrifices in defense of democracy and liberty, we owe them our undying gratitude.
Valiant Filipino soldiers fought, died, and suffered in some of the bloodiest battles of World War II, defending beleaguered Bataan and Corregidor, and thousands of Filipino prisoners of war endured the infamous Bataan Death March and years of captivity. Their many guerrilla actions slowed the Japanese takeover of the Western Pacific region and allowed U.S. forces the time to build and prepare for the allied counterattack on Japan. Filipino troops fought side-by-side with U.S. forces to secure their island nation as the strategic base from which the final effort to defeat Japan was launched.
This month, as we mark the anniversary of General MacArthur's return to the Philippines, we acknowledge the important role Filipino soldiers played in turning back aggression, defending liberty, and preserving democracy, and we extend to them our abiding thanks.
Now, Therefore, I, William J. Clinton, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim October 20, 1996, as a day Honoring the Filipino Veterans of World War II. I urge all Americans to recall the courage, sacrifice, and loyalty of Filipino veterans of World War II and honor them for their contributions to our freedom.
In Witness Whereof, I have hereunto set my hand this seventeenth day of October, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and ninety-six, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and twenty-first.
