big WIRELESS TOWER
To GET French Twin
Many Annapolis Station Workers
Now Leave for France.

Baltimore. Md, May 31.-All the
structural work on what is now the
largest wireless station in the world
has been finished on the government
reservation. across the Severn
River from Annapolis, but 1t is due
to be the largest station in the
world only a short time.
Many of the workmen who helped
erect the huge towers on the Sew
ern already have departed for
France. where the United States is
erecting a gireless station which
will be larger and more powerful
than the one on the Severn.
The two huge wireless stations.
which outclass any in the world,
are a direct result of the war, and
they are being placed in operation
solely for the use of the army and
navy for. communication between
the United States and France. As
soon as they go into operation the
government will cease to use the
Atlantic cables.
As a comparison Of the two gov
ernment stations. the one on the
Severn consists Of, four 600-foot
towers, placed in a square about
$50 feet apart, while the station
now being erected in France will
consist of eight S5O-foot towers,
placed in an octagon about 1000
feet apart. Both are equipped with
the buildings and machinery neces-
sary for proper operation, and will
have barracks to house officers and
men who will be stationed there to
guard and operate the reservations.
