AT the Coliseum. in Rome" said
Col. George Griffith Of Oklahoma
City, in tho course OF an interview
with World representative here the
other day, 'T discovered. quite by
chance, a startling bit Of informa-
ton"
He was relating some OF his expert
ences this year In Europe, where he
went as q member OF the Moose re-
lief commission 10 establish rest
rooms and social clubs for members
of the l. o. O. M. serving with the
American expeditionary force and
the Canadian army.
Nearly all OF the dignitarles OF
Italy were at this banquet, he con-

inventor of the wireless I had
served as an engineer in the British
army In South Africa and we dis
cussed at length the part being
played in the present war by the
wireless. Thus We became quite in

In Communication With Mars.
suddenly Marconi turned 10 me

world. They come, apparently, from
plants much more powerful than our
most powerful plants. We can tell

picked up at our stations. Our very

they are all OF the same opinion as
me. They think that we are actually
receiving messages from another
planet. We are working on that the
ory and hope some time to discover
the key to their code. Personally l
am satisfied that they are messages
from Mars"
Nothing more was said about the
matter at the banquet. according TO
Colonel Griffith, but the thing has
kept running through his mind ever
since he returned home.
The members of tho commission
to which Colonel Griffith was at
tached were given UNUSUAL oppor-
.unities for observation on the vari-
GUS battle fronts and were banqueted
by the distinguished men of England,
Franco and italy.
Saw start of Battes
He went from Arras to Peronne,
Baupaume, Noyon and throughout
the whole Somme area on March 20,
the day before the start of the great
drive that so soon threw the terri
tory described into German hands.
'@The Huns were already tuning
up,. said Colonel Griffith. I'VE
didn't know, of course, that the event
was so near. But the artillery was ac-
tive, and by the time we had reached
Paris by the way OF Amiens the
Germans had begun their advance"
With reference to his visit to
Douaumout, he said:
1.-TWO hundred and stNty-nine shells
fell on our way out of Verdun and
hack. They called II a quiet day. We
