u. S. TO HAVEBIG
RADIOS AT Canal
Powerful Wireless Stations to
Supplant Present Ones at
Balboa and Colon.
TO HAVE 5OO-MILE RANGE
Will Be Open TO Commercial Use,
Though Built Primarily for Naval
and Military Purposes.

The two powerful radio stations now
nearing completion at Colon and Balboa
soon viii supplant the present stations
operating at the terminI Of the Panama
Canal They win be used in communI-
eating with ships OF the army and navy
and commercial vessels within a normal
operating radius Of 500 miles from the
canal ...a O.
The range Of the new stations al
though similar to that of the smaller
ones, will greatly exceed the S00-mile
daytime range of the present station
at Colon. and the 2o0-mile daytime range
OF the Balboa station. The Colon sta
ton will be equipped with two inter
changeable sets, the smaller TO be used
regularly for local work, the larger TO
be switched in for long-distsnce COM
munication.
Towers 300 Feet Tall.
The Colon and Balboa services will be
distinct from the service OF the high
power station at Darien. which will be
used, except in case of emergency. for
official business, communicating direct
with the Arlington station near Wash
ington and relaying messages TO gov
eminent vessels within a nominal radius
Of 1000 miles of the Isthmus.
The new stations at the ends OF the
canal Will be practically identical In
form, except that the Colon station will
have a slightly larger power house. to
accommodate the two sets OF sending
apparatus. At each the antennae will
be stretched between two 3OO-foot steel
towers, 600 feet apart. Each tower will
be self-supporting, resting on three foot
ings, arranged in an equilateral triangle,
sixty feet on the side.
The footings are blocks OF concrete.
nine feet square, and rest on piles on bed
rock. At Colon, where the piling is below
sea level, timber piles were used. but at
Balboa, on account Of high elevation, re-
enforced concrete piles were driven.
Get Power from Canal system.
Both stations will receive power from
the trans-isthmian electric system. They
will use a different system Of radiation
from that proposed for the Darien sta
ton, so that there will be no interference.
They will conform TO the international
using a wave length Of GO
meters for communication with CONNER
cial vessels and from 1000 to $500 me-
tiers for naval work.
The Colon and Balboa radio services.
while primarily for naval and military
work in connection with the Panama
Ndudl' anu stCOuudIHy lOT SnlpplnE' Will
be used for all official communications
with ships approaching or leaving the
canal, or in transit through the canal.
They will be opened, as the present sta
lions are, TO commercial service under
imposed by international con-
Yention. such as, for example. the rul-
ing that government radio service may
not be used for commercial messages
in connection with privately owned sub
marine cables and overland wires.

MARSHALL JOKE
PROVES A SNAG
Amendment May Throw Up
Another Prohibition Fight
to Both Houses.
HUMOR TAKEN SERIOUSLY
Whether So Regarded or Not. Anti.
Liquor Faction May Insist on Roll
Cali to Settle Issue.

Senate and House conferees on the
Clayton antitrust bill have struck a
snag which may tie them up for a week
! or ten days, and may throw another
prohibition fight in both houses for set
Element.
The snaE. authorship of which is
ftraced 10 Vice President Marshall took
the form of an amendment offered by
Senator Chiffon and adopted without
debate by the Senate. The amendment.
which Senator Chiffon explained was
written by Vice President Marshall and
sent TO Senator Chiffon, reads as fol-
lows:
Section 2s. II shall be unlawful for
any corporation involved in commerce
to do any business in any State, con-
trary to the laws of the State under
which that corporation was created or
contrary to the laws of the State in
which it may be doing business. The
District of Columbia shall be deemed a
State under the meaning Of this sec
ton"
1t was pointed out, in conference yes
terday, that this section might be in
voked to prevent the shipment from a
wet State of liquor into a dry State or
a dry territory within a State. 1t is
regarded as substantially Strengthening
the Webb-Kenyon liquor law.
The authorship of the SECTION is re-
Sarded in some quarters as a joke that
went wrong. Mr.. Marshall has a reputa-
tidn for thinking up dron amendments,
which he asks members 70 present. 1t is
thought possible that this was submit
ted in the anne spirit and was not appre-
ciated as a joke.
Whether the conferees accept or reject
the amendment. the probability is that
the disappointed element in both houses
will insist on a roll call decision. thereby
bringing up at a most inconvenient time
an, issue which never is welcomed by
those legislators who oppose nationwide
prohibition.

Then a staff-oficer appeared in the
doorway. When he saw a woman en-
ter the room he frowned. He had rid

of women, a fact that he regarded as
a blessing If she had been a maid

cap. Seeing that she was not, he re-
moved it and found himself in want of
words as their eyes met after she had
made a gesture to the broken glass
on the floor and the lacerated table
top, which said too plainly:

and freshly shaven did not in any wise

with the rest, feeling himself a straw
on the crest Of a wave, and Pilzer,
most bitter, most ugly of all, his short,
strong teeth and sums showing and
his liver patch red, lumpy, and trem-

privacy they committed the act that
leaves the deepest wound of wars in
herttance, to go on from generation
to generation in the history of fami-
lies.
"A swell diuing-room! l like the

With his bayonet he smashed the

There was a laugh as a shower of
glass fell on the floor. Even the

the leather seat of chair. This in,

for other worlds of conquest, as the
self-chosen leader of the increasing

Maybe there's wine!"
Food and wine!"
Eyes, wine! We're thirsty!"
And maybe women! I'd like to kiss

"Stop!" cried Hugo, forcing his way
in front of Pilzer.

the company parliamentary rights,
which he thought that they had fully
earned.
