R a dio Invention
For Deaf Operator.

II is no longer impossible for a PERI
son stone deaf TO become an expert
wireless operator. c. A. Hoxie has
invented a radio receiving set where
by the message Is photographicaIy
registered on a tape, making an ac-
curate and permanent record and re-
ceiving by ear unnecessary.
This system rs been so far per-
fected that It is IN daily operation at
the Otter Cliffs receiving station, near
Bar Harbor. Maine, says the Elec-;
trical Experimenter for July. Naval
ofiicers, using the Photographic sys-
tenn, have received repeatedly regular
trafhc schedules ranging from 1000
words to 1000 words without inter-
ruption and at a speed OF from forty
to fifty-five words a minute.
As far as speed is concNFned, the
machine has recorded at the rate of
400 words a minute, which is the
speed OF a machine gun, and Mr.
Hoxie himself recorded a low-power
message at a speed of 600 words a
minute. Up to this time the fastest
means OF catching radio messages
was by a photographic arrangement,
but that never attained the velocity
OF 600 words a minute.
Mr. Hoxie's apparatus makes pos
sible a big financial saving for the
radio companies. For years 1t has
been found that the best time for
transmitting messages between hero
and Europe was from I A. M. to 10
A. M. because atmospheric conditions
are best then.
The apparatus consists OF a light
weight mirror "fluttering'' in elec,
tro-magnetio tune with the minuta
electric impulses from the antenna.
The duration and extent OF the oacil-l
lations vary according to dot. dash
or silence OF the sender The mirror,
reflects a beam OF iight on a movine
sensitive tape. The tape then asses.

graphic developer, is washed dried

NHRs. KIcKAPoo ALLEN of
M Debit is a woman with much
originality. She loves TO stroll
along avenues that are new, figura-
lively speaking. and to her to be
commonplace is to be guilty Of a
crime. She even injects her origi-
nality into her social affairs, with the.
result that they are invariably most
enjoyable.
Mrs. Allen gave children's party
last Saturday at her home. the occa-
sion being the eighth birthday OF her
little son. Apache. Fifty enthusiasts

ice cream and cake. were treated to

Storm Of Protest Raised at

ASK KING NOT TO SIGN
By the Associated Press

BRUSSELS, May 4-Public opinion in
Belgium has been upset by the news
from Paris concerning what is de-
scribed as the unsatisfactory decisions
reached by the Peace Conference re-
specting Belgium. Newspapers OF all
shades Of opinion express their disap-
pointment and II Is said the Belgian
Government may appeal directly to
public opinion in the United States
and in Great Britain, recalling the for
NAL promises made to Belgium by the
responsible heads Of both those coun-
tries.
The Burgomaster OF Antwerp in a
proclamation has informed the inhabi-
tants that he has sent TO the Belgian
delegation in Paris a telegram asking
them to insist upon complete indemni-
fication and reconstruction. the immedi-
ate introduction OF raw materials and a
revision OF the treaty OF 1899.
The Town Council in devastated Ter
monde has telegraphed similar reuue st S
to the Belgian delegation at the French
capital, while numerous protests have
been sent to King Albert. in which his
Majesty Is asking to refuse to sign the
peace treaty rather than accept charity.
The Belgian Government unanimously
considers the conditions Unacceptable
and has told the Belgian delegates at

VERSAILLES, May 4. Churchgoers
among the German delegation were few
In number. Baron Won Lcrsner and

Catholic church. while three German
men and five women occupied reserved

which they had purchased during the
promenade. We're attended in each case
by French secret service agents.
The Germans planned a sightseeing
excursion for this afternoon TO the
Trianon and Little Trianon and had
requested permission 10 visit the his
Il ric apartments OF Madame Maintenon
and Marie Antoinette. The necessary
permits were not received. however, and
the project had to be abandoned.
A considerable holiday crowd came
from Paris to catch n glimpse OF the
Germans. but found the barrier arrange
ments in working order and were con-
strained to confne their promenades TO
the far side OF the street.
Herr G.esberts and Herr Landberg,
observing n French artist sketching
members OF the German party at the
entrance to their hotel this afternoon,
went over to him and asked him TO
make Il sketch Of them also They posed
patiently for the artist and then signed
the sketches.
Count Won Brockdorff- Rantzau, head
of the delegation. took short stroll.
and later remained outside his hotel
chatting with the other members OF the

Yesterday was one OF the hottest n,
early May days in the records of the
Dig town officially, which means aloft

sidewalks, temperatures SCARED tc
midsummer figures. The giant instru.
ment in front of the World Building
marked 80 for more than an hour after
$3.50 In the afternoon. Only a few per.
sons in automobiles appeared in over
coats. Even a straw hat might no,
have been ridiculed if IL had defied
tradition and come out Of winter
storage.
1t was one Of the most gorgeous
spring days in the wooded boroughs
and the parks that ever stirred the
pulses Of spring poets and inspired the
birds to melody. The breeze, mostly
from the south, was zephyrish and the
park benches. notably those at the
Battery, facing the breeze, wero al,
taken from noon until near sunset
Excursion steamboats, did a grea,
business. The aspect of the town was
summerlike.

fresh winds from the south. shifting to

may not feel 80 much like going maying
to-day as they did yesterday.
Coney Island had its biggest crowd
and Its first serious accident OF the
new season. II was estimated that AT
o'clock the crowd had reached 200,0 900
and more kept coming in by train and
motor.

GERMANS KEEP
WELL SECLUDED
Peace Delegates Appear to
Realize Hopelessness of
Their Cause.
SURROUNDED BY GLOOM
They Shun Even the Members

Guarded by Troops.
SURROUNDED BY GLOOM

PARIS May 4.-In a seclusion that &c
mournful rather than dignified the
German peace delegates are awaiting
the presentation of the peace treaty.
and with the same feeling of appre-
hension that Damoceles must have
contemplated the overhanging sword.
The whole atmosphere of the Yer
sailes neighborhood in which the Ger
mans are waiting gives ono the i'm
preston of Sing Sing death house. The
Limousine in which Count Won Brock
dorff- Rantzau, pale and i'll looking.
goes for ride daily reminds one Of a
hearse.
The gloomy impression Is heightened
by the sedulous care with which the
German delegates are keeping to them
selves, evidently feeling keenly the de-
feat to which their once proud empire
has been reduced. From all reports
that trickle through the Gordon Of
French troops surrounding the place
the delegates seldom show themselves
even 10 their own encourage. It is be-
lieved that until they get the treaty they
will not even talk to the German news
paper men. who thus far have had no
word with the delegates.
Left to their own devices, the small
fry OF the delegation are trying TO make
themselves at home. They have estab-
lished cafe In the Hotel Natel. where
they sit about, drinking beer and coffee
The men wear clumsy clothes and the
women tight WASTED gowns that would
make Fifth avenue laugh.
The German newspaper men. trying to
emulate American enterprise. came to
Paris on May Day to see the ''revolu-
ton" They were arrested by the French
guards and hustled back TO their quar-
ters. They said they had learned much
more about their own country by reading
the Paris newspapers than they knew
when they were at home.
The French raised an unconsciously
humorous situation by informing the
German delegates they might attend the
Protestant Church in the Avenue Hoche
II they would sit alone in the gallery.
