Amateur wireless operators numbered
by the thousands all over the coun-
try have been reused by his posi-
blilty, and have been protesting with
yigor.
Two of The foremost operators in
this city who are interested in the
wireless from a scientific viewpoint
are Philip Creter, OF 332 South Sixth
street, and John G. Eilerinann, OF 40.
South Tenth street. Creter said today
that. he had seen several of his friends
amoug tho. operators of the city, and
Reported that the sentiment among
them is strong against the proposed
regulations.
''.As soon as / heard OF the affair L
wrote to the authorities said Creter,
and received in reply q warning that
l should not send out any more mes
sages. BY what right that warning
was given is beyond me to say, but /
can tell you this much. Amateurs are
doing more toward the perfection or
the wireless than any other class OF
operators. IF YOU cutoff experimental
ton by individuals you are dwaring
the growth Of the science
Greterss apparatus, several parts OF
which ale original, is capable OF send
ing messages 500 miles. This strength
is exceptional among amateurs, how
ever, as the average independent APP
paratns can send messages only from
ten to fifteen miles.
The Wireless Club, an organization
t~ostered by the boys department of
the y. M. 9. Az and composed mainly
OF members Of that organization, is
.perfecting an instrument which, when
completed, Will % strong enough to
SEND messages more than a thousand
miles.
Other wireless operators in town
are protesting against the restriction
'of their privileges, but refused to talk
Tor publication on account of the pres
ent governmental attitude. ALI are
unanimous in saying hal the anna
tours rights should not be cut off.
Many emphasized the benefits Oh the
plan now in use In Chicago, whereby
an hour a day Is set aside for anna
teaars, with the understanding tina they
are NOT to touch their nstrumen at
any ether time, or whenever important
messages concerning life. or the safety
OF ships are in transmission.
Ihe9duestion of codes for use by the
authorities is one of the problems fuc-
ing the government wireless experts
at present. It is claimed that no code
devised has as yet succeeded In
m%ystifying the $4,000 Wireless operators
throughout the country.
The officers Of the Y, NJ. &. "A. or
ganlzatjon are as follows; lrrederick

Horle, vice-president; Conrad il. Nagel.
