they met in Jacksonville two weeks

Secretary Baker, In Washington, Will Be
Able To Call Up Gen. Pershing, In France,
And Converse OUer Telephone Next August

can be transmitted several thousand
miles and be heard as plainly as II
the speaker were just across the
room, but here Is a rough outline
of it:
The human voice vibrates the air.
or chops it up into waves. When
the sound of the human voice is
sent over the telephone wire to the
wireless station, it gees up to the top
tions or waves are thrown out on the
atmosphere, which it chops up into
chunks. When the sound waves are
thrown out on the atmosphere there
is sufficient powerful electrical cur
rent behind them to drive them to
their destination. So much for the
start.
The wireless tower to which these
sound waves, the Vibrations of Sec
rotary Bakers voice we will call
them, are directed is equipped with
the chunks of atmosphere. This at
traction is strong and comes just
about the time the Juice" PVT be-
hind the vibrations at the start is
evaporating. The sound waves run
true to the magnate which transmits
| the vibrations down the wire into the
! wireless station, where the sounds
are transmitted to the telephone
wire.
When the vibrations strike the
telephone wire they cease to be mers
| waves of air but are converted back
into words which General Pershing
can understand. The words have the
same tone, pitch and infection they
had when they left Secretary Bakers
| lips and General Pershing can recog-
nize the Secretary's voice.
When the wireless tower in France
is completed Secretary Baker can
telephone to General Pershing with
practically as much ease as the
could call up a bureau chief in some
part of the War Department
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1918-04-06

Hello, Mr.. Secretary, this is Cen
eral Pershing speaking, 1 have the
honor to report that we have the
enemy on the run and are getting
nearer and nearer to Berlin"
Fine business and more power to
you. Press on. Roll them back.
The War Department and the whole
country congratulates you. If there
is anything you need over There,
just ring me up and I'll ship it over"
This is a purely imaginary con-
versation between General Pershing,
sitting in his headquarters in
France, and Secretary Baker at his
desk in the War Department in
Washington, but after next August
it will be not only possible but prob
able.
Work of putting General Pershing
and Secretary Baker into telephone
connection is being rushed. The fact
that 5000 miles of water and hun
dreds of miles of land will separate
them will be an inconseQuential de-
tail.
Telephone communication between
the two will be established when the
giant radio station which the United
States Government is building IL
being constructed by the Navy De
partment, which has charge of al
radio Communication. 1t will cost
$2,250,0O0 and be as powerful as
the wireless station at Arlington
Va, which has a range of almost S.
900 miles.
The practicability of using the
telephone in connection with wire
less telegraphy was established many
months ago and Secretary of the
Navy Daniels has already sat in his
office in Washington and talked tt
the commanders of vessels far ou
at sea
1t would take an entire volume tt

HENSLEY A CAPTAIN
Topeka Physician Stationed at Camp

DR.. c. NJ. Hensley, for several years
a prominent Topeka physician of the
younger generation and who entered
the army early in the war as a first
lieutenant, has been promoted to q
captaincy. according to word received

1t Is The Side That Has The Nerue
That viii Win This War, Saus Taft

cit is sticking to it that does it"
1T is the side that has the nerve
that will win
With these pithy sentences former
President Taft closed his speech to
the soldiers in twelve Army canton
ments. He has just made a thirty
day tour of the cantonments for the
War Work Council of the Young
Mems Christian Association.
Mr.. Taft talked on the Great War
why we are in it; what caused it;
who will win it.
THE battle is not won in the first
day, but by the commander and the
army that are ready, even after ap-
parent defeat, to begin the next day."
he said.
Liked His Laugh and Talk
This is the stun the soldiers liked.
They believed it. They have to live
1t. And besides liking what Mr.. Taft
said, the soldiers loved to hear him
laugh.
The Commanding Officers at each
cantonment welcomed Mr.. Taft and
with their STATS escorted him to
headquarters. The salient argu-
ments in Mr.. Taft's address follow:
Peace now, even though it be made
on the basis of the restoration of the
status quo without indemnities and
without annexations," would be a
failure to achieve the great purpose
for which the Allies have made
heartrending sacrifice. Armaments
this war would have been fought in
vain.
Future at Stake
The Allies are fighting for a prin-
ciple the maintenance of which af-
fects the future of civilization. If
they do not achieve it they have sac
rifced the flower of their youth and
mortgaged their future for a century.
The Allies cannot concede peace IN
SO. it will be permanent. Otherwise
they fail.

Prime Minister Bismarck. who came
