ject of getting grant of land for Jewish settle

the Holy Land. the Jewish Chronicle says The
territory between these two points includes the

invention, wireless telephony, have proven one
Of the greatest boons of the age, but. from the
standpoint of our public officials and particularly
our army and navy officers, their value will be
tremendously enhanced if way can be found to
transmit messages with surety that they will
reach nobody save the individual fer whom they
are intended. Under present conditions many
military and naval wireless messages are picked
up by private operators and OF course this would
not do at all in time of war 1t is believed, how
ever that solution will be provided when there
is completed the trio Of monster wireless towers
$50 feet in height soon to be constructed by the
navy department at Washington, D. G. The
equipment at the station will be capable of
transmitting wireless messages distance of
5000 miles or and it is believed that it will
be SO powerful that it will be readily practicable
to send and receive messages that cannot be
filched by any wireless station of less capacity.

them at this pont) the chief magistrate has one
medium for absolutely secret communication. This
is an exclusive telephone system that centers at
the executive Offices, and whereas its radius does
not extend beyond the limits of the national capt.

tons rules in close tough with every government
official This special system has no hello girl

Uncle Sans secret methods of communication
have been improved within the past few years
through the Introduction of several important new
inventions. One Of these is the dictograph, Wnlcn
has been hailed as the successor OF the telephone
and which consists OF master station IN the
private Office of an official and sub-station In

invention is found in the fact that the photograph

the purpose of keeping tab the governments

Der that few years ago there was a big scandal
when it was discovered that spectators the

tips as to the government crop reports that

But after all, the gravest responsibilities that
are imposed upon Uncle Sans secret methods of
communication come in connection with inter-
national complications of any kind-especially in
the event of crisis that threatens war; One Of
the best illustrations of record of how close
mouthed Uncle Sam can be occasion given
when large portion of the regular army was
modified on the Mexican frontier. That move
ment required much planning and preparation on
the part Of tho president and the high officials OF
the army and navy and yet quietly did the
preparations go forward that one-third OF our
standing army YVES hurrying to the Rio Grande
ere the public had hint what was happening.
This performance proved that the White house
u.s. as 1t indeed ought to be. the nerve center OF
q very effective system for secret communication.
The president has his own special telegraph and
telephone operators stationed at the executive
offices, but for long distance work they must be
dependent upon the regular commercial lines,
and for all that direct line to anywhere can be
set aside for the exclusive Of the White house
almost at moments notice; there IS, Of course,
some danger that outsiders somewhere along the
line might overhear the messages that are clicked
over it. TO get around this difficulty the White
house teIegraphers send most Of the highly con-
6dential messages in secret code or cipher
which means that message Is translated into
