TOWER is SECOND TO NONE

WASHINGTON. April A prelim-
mary report on the recent experiences
IN radia telegraphy between the scout
cruiser Salem. on her voyage TO and
from Gibraltar, and the great wire
less tower at Arlington, proved this
station to be second to none in the
world.
The contract requirement of the
dispatch of messages from Arlington
to a vessel at least 1900 miles dis
tant could be only realized at night,
but such messages were delivered to
the Salem by day up to a distance
OF 1883 miles. 1t was demonstrated,
too that by the use of kites on the
vessel with wire conductors messages
could have been exchanged through
out the entire transatlantic trip.
