WIRELESS USAGE
Bryan Announces That All viii
Be Permitted to Send in
Code and Cipher.

Washington. Sept 5.-Secretary
Bryan announced that the question OF
the use of wireless by European bell
ligerent powers has been settled by
an arrangement through which all Of
the powers would be permitted TO
send and receive messages in code or
cipher.
Secretary Bryan issued this state
ment:
THE government has reached de-
cision in regard to the use of high
power wireless stations during the
European war. Hereafter all belhger-
ents may send and receive wireless
messages in code or cipher The
American censors at the stations Will
be furnished with copies of the code
and cipher books so as to be in po-
sition to determine that the neutrality
of the United States is not violated.
The code and cipher books as we'll as
the messages sent are to remain
known only to the official censors and
to the United States government.
Thus far the British and Germans
have acquiesced in this limited use or
the wireless stations. AS the enforce
ment of the executive order on April
5. placing high powered stations un-
der censorship was left to the decision
of the secretary of navy, that depart
ment will decide upon the regulation
under which these messages will be
transmitted"
