WIRELESS CATCHES
VOICE OF CARUSO

New York, May 15-Wireless oper-
ators at Sandy Hook, Sea Girt and
Atlantic Highlands and on ships leav-
ing the harbcr, together with scores OF
amateur wireless enthusiasts in the
vicinity of New York were greatly
mystified when they heard through
their receivers the voice Of Carusc
singing La Boheme and Aida.
Although most of the curious and
delighted hearers did not know to
whom they were indebted for their
canned solos of the great tenor, II
wasn't lon before many of them
found out that the concert was part
of a wireless telephone test made by
the Marconi company at it's station or
the roof Of big department store II
this city.
The Italians voice was clearly hearc
by the operator at the wireless sta.
ton at the store In Philadelphia.

ENGLAND BECOMING
FAMILIAR WITH OTHER FLAGS

London, Sept. 25.-England for
the first time in this generation is
becoming thoroughly familiar with
ether flags than the Union Jack, but
1t is having a hard time doing so.
In some quarters an attempt is
made to display the flags OF all the
allies, reckoning them as France,
Belgium. Russia, Servia, Montenegro
and Japan. One drawback is that all
the national flags mentioned except
two are tri-colors. and to English
eyes all the tri-colOrs look more or
less alike. In fact. nearly every
national flag in Europe is a tri-color,
either vertical or horizontal. France
has the blue. white and red verti-
cal; Holland the red. white and blue
horizontal: Belgium, black. orange
and red vertical, and Russia, white,
red and blue, horizontal. Servia' $
I'"g is simply the Russian flag up
side down with a small device in the
middle. Montenegro's is the same as
the servian with different device
In the center.
A special war flag has been design
ed by woman who has attempted
to combine the flags of all the allies
in one banner. but it is such a mon
strosity that no one displays 1t.

sador with the following message:
His majesty begs that you will
tell the king that he has been proud
Of the titles OF british field marshal
and British admiral. but that in con-
sequence OF what has occurred he
must divest himself of those titles"
This was written by Sir Edward

THAT TENTATIVE PLAN"

fuCDIO Cnleitan.
II occura to us that the position
of the operators toward the tentative
proposal OF the President is correct
When President Wilson submitted
his proposal he called 1t a tentative
proposal. In all disputes a. tenta-
tive proposal is one upon which n
basis FOR II settlement can be secured.
Tho operators met the President in
he same spirit they thought he was
acting, Immediately sent him n dig
nificd reply to his tentative propos-
nj telling him what parts of his plan
they could acccpt. what part was
partially tenablc and what part they
could not accept. If the reports from
Washington are correct the President
demanded that they accept all of
the plan. The operators were thus
Placed in the position of attempting
tc meet the Pre- :idcnt on what he or.
iginally called a tentative plan. and
finding that without notification to
them he had changed IL to a perman-
ent plan. This was certainly nm
fair and was no doubt done with a
view OF gaining ,olitical prestige.
Again consider the parts the oper-
ntors refused to accept. The Presi-
dent wants to operators to take back
all the men not convicted of destruc-
ton o property and life. 1t Is thus
admitted that the men have de-
stroyed life tand property. AL hut
one of the 4G9 under indictment have
not been tried. Are they to be Civ
en- work during the interim? Hardl-
ly. Again it is admitted by all that
the only need for the federal troops
here Is, to keep the strikers from
molcsting the men who arc working
and destroying the property of the
operators. Why get around the sit
uation by demanding OF the ooerat-
ors that they give them positions in
order to cause them to obey the law?
No, the position of the President is
wrong. He made the play theday
before the primaries for the polite
al effect 1t would have on the days
results. The operators have ans
-wered that under the law: and con-
stitrtinr of both the state and ma
tion n man has the right to work and
be protected in that work. The
President should not have said ten
tative" unless he intended to con-
slider it us such.
