INTERNATIONAL
WIRELESS CALL

The Seattle Post -Intelligencer says:
"The first step toward carrying out
the Berlin -radio4telegfaphi agree
ment on the Pacific Ocean was taken
yesterday by r H Armstrong, general
manager of the United Wireless Tele-
graph Company, when he ordered new
lists of call letters complied in accord
ance with the ruling of the several
governments placed in the hands of
every operator in the employ of his
compang
I'm the past the wireless companies
have assigned call letters to the yes
sells they equip with the result that
there have been many Implications and
at timesr great confusion The United
Status bureau of navigation has taken
a prominent part in working out the
agreement with other countries, and
more than so per cent of the Ameri-
can shipowners have agreed to adopt
the plan.
Each Vessel to Have its Call.
The bureau of navigation has COM
pleted arrangements with the Berne
bureau for the assignment of call let
tiers to American wireless ship and
shore stations. American vessels and
shore stations will thus become part
of worldwide system of radio COM
munication, each vessel and shore sta
ton having its own call letter or let
tiers which can be recognized by the
wireless ship and shore station of all
nations
The change to the new system will
involve temporary Inconvenience to
operators, but this will be offset by
the advantage of having wireless call
system Ineligible to all the world.
: The International bureau has as
signed series of call letters beginning
with K and w to American merchant
vessels and yachts. and with N to the
United States navy. The w group of
letters has been assigned to vessels
plying the Pacific, and the K group to
vessels plying the Atlantic
How Calls Are Arranged.
1t has been the aim 10 arrange, as
far as practicable, the two remaining
letters of the call, so that the same
second letter or letters shall be as
signed to vessels of the same line. The
third letter or letters win be the yes
sells distinctive call
For instance, a steamship line OPP
Grated on the Pacific has five vessels
equipped with wJ-elesst The first
wireless call letter viii be W, indicat-
| ing an American vessel on the Pa
cific the second would be @ S, or
any other letter or letters adopted to
distinguish the steamship line: and
the third letter or-letters would be X
T S, or any other letter or group of
letters adopted to represent the name
of the vessel.
MIR Armstrong explained that the
bureau of navigation has completed
arrangements with the Berne bureau
for the assignment of call letters to all
American wireless ship and shore sta
tions, so that there,will be no duplica-
! tions. When the readjustments are
made after all CAP letters have been
| submitted. bulletins viii be issued for
the information Of all nations enter
! ing the agreement The hundreds of
calls will be made of single letters and
groups in order to prevent duplica-
tions.

HONESTY
BY GEORGE FITCH

as they can get II by selling him stock
in a defunet gold mine. Other men
would shudder with horror at the
thought OF selling decayed mining
stock when the same results can be
obtained in perfectly legal manner
/ BY borrowing the money and going
into bankruptcy with. no visible as
sets.
Many men are so honest that they
win not steal a pin. But they would
hold the coat OF a personal friend
while he stole battleship. Still 9TH
ers decline 10 steal anything at all.
preferring TO leave the job to Iitiga-
ton, which usually gives excellent
satisfaction
There are also men with whom you
could trust your watch with perfect
safety. but who would take stock
company away from you with merry
laugh
Some men are honest In small
things. because there is no profit in
piker pilfering. Others are honest in
large things. because there is less risk
in small packages.
Thus IL is 10 be seen plainly that
the standards OF honesty vary as
widely as plurality guesses by Lead
ers of opposite parties. Standards
vary in Legislatures also. In some
the members are so honest that 4ey
will only sell their votes for political
support. In others the members will
not accept money and would indie-
nantly return the bundles they find in
their pockets. il they had time and
could remember 10 do it. In still 9TH
-rs. when a member doesn't pawn his
desk and chair. he runs for reelection

1t will not do for us to judge the
honesty of others by our own--for 9TH
ers are judging our honesty by theirs
and are looking at us with horror as
they do so.
