Perfects Radio Device.

According to a leading Norwegian
newspaper, Engineer Hermod Peter
sen has patented a device for the pro-
duction of electrical current for radio
telegraphy.
The electricity is received BY. an ac-
cum1lator, which releases II at certain
intervals. The system Is sparkless.
and the sounds are clearer than In the
older inventions. says the Scientific
American. The clearness Of sound de-
ponds upon the regularity Of the cur
rent, and with this system the current
is released with a mathematical ex-
actness.
The device has further advantages
in that 1t is cheaper, simpler and more
durable than those now in use. IL the
claims for this invention prove well
founded, 1t is thought that 1t will mark
distinct step in advance Of what has
so far been accomplished In this line.
and hence it's possibilities are creating
considerable interest In the radio
world.

FREIGHT EMBARGO

DIRECTOR HINES AND ASSIST.
ANTS DECIDE THERE is COAL &
ENOUGH FOR RAILROADS.

Chicago. - There will be no dras-
tic general curtailment of train ser
vice in the United States at the pres
ent time, despite the seriousness of
the coal problem. This announcement
was made at the conclusion OF q
meeting attended by Director Gener-
al Of Railroads Walker D. Hines and
seven regional directors of the Rail
road Administration.
Mr.. Hines, after hearing reports
from the regional directors, express
ed the opinion there was sufficient
coal to run the railroads on a practi-
cally normal basis for rs or 80 days
and that production of bituminous
coal was being increased daily. A
freight embargo would be the last.
thcught-of measure to conserve coal.
That the coal situation was serious
was admitted by those in attendance
Further consideration of the subject
will be given during the present week
by Mr. Hines and If any curtailment
Of train service is decided upon, am.
pie notice will be given the public.
Coal now in the hands Of the rail
roads under the order Of the Fuel Ad-
ministration will continue to be dis,
tributed to public utilities and other
nse1s of coal, in accordance with
actual necessity.
