TEST RADIO COMPASS.
Device Gives Promise of Great Advance
i'm Fog Signalling.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2S.-When the
blind gray fog rolls down over the en-
trance to Chesapeake bay and sad-vOiced
g-horns below ware Shoal,' a stubby
government craft plows out into the thick
of it to plot a new course to safety for
those who come up from the sea in ships.
Aboard the tender, as the shouting OF
the fog horns grows vague in her wake
and blurred in the battling folds of the
mist. men of the lighthouse service lean
above the great dial of new radio com
pass Out of the air. minute by minute
as the distant horns vail, impulses come
from three points to set the direction
needle wavering to point the way first
toward one and then another danger far
ahead. And from the readings of the
compass. a course is laid back into harbor
in defiance of the foe and its periis. The
tests are being made by the lighthouse
service in cooperation with tine bureau of
standards and have to do with learning the
efficiency of devices for projecting auto
matte radio signals from fog stations to
supplement the mournful h0oting of the
horns. Eventually every lighthouse and
lightship may thus hurl its warning out
far beyond the range of sight or hearing
for conservative government reports say
the experiments give excellent promise of
the successes of this probably greatest adj
vance in fog-signal engineering.

Especial Despatch to The Reformer.)
Copyright 1921.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 2S.APresident-
elect Harding has given his tentative APP
prevail to what may amount to a billion
dollar credit to Germany and thus enable
the people of central Europe to buy
American goods or products, of which they
are in serious need. The plan as outlined
to Mr.. Harding, by New York bankers
contemplates the use of the securities held
in the United States by the alien prop
erty custodian in behalf of German citi-
zens. This is estimated to amount to at
least $500, 100000, because the remainder
of what the alien property custodian has
really belongs to citizens of Austria, PO-
land and Czecho-S lovakia and under an
amendment to the trading with the enemy
act passed by congress, the property of
those citizens must be returned to them
when they claim it.
1t is possible, of course, with $500, O00,-
! 90 placed as assets in a single corporation
to raise other funds for credit purposes
either through Americans or Germans in
terested in the financing of a huge export
project of this kind but Inquiry here dis
closes the fact that if the proponents of
the idea had the notion that billion dol
lars of securities were available for the
German credit, such is not the case.
Broadly speaking, the approval by Mr..
Harding of the plan does not altogether
assure its adoption. for an act of con-
gress will be required before the alien
property custodian can release any of the
securities or property which it now holds.
All the cash belonging to Germans is in
the United States treasury and by law
cannot be invested in anything else but
/ Liberty bonds.
/ The plan, moreover. would require an
agreement with the German government
! whereby the owners of the property would
permit the Berlin government to use the
: securities in the United Staten as basis
of credit and wOuld renounce all claims
against the American government in con-
uection with the new enterprise.
J 1T cannot be said that banking opinion
j. altogether unanimous as to the wisdom
of the scheme for some authorities claim
it would be wiser to turn back the S40O.-
( 100000 TO the real owners and let the
Germans do with it as they please, the
theory being that the Germans win per-
/ haps find the most effective way to invest
their own securities so that trade Will be
revived. There is also the suggestion that
if the German owners get their assets back
they may be in a position to borrow funds
wherewith to pay American firms to whom

Was Real Anxious To Get Married

Elmer Ewing, a retired farmer, ard
Mrs. Louise V. Ewing, his divorced
wife, appeared before Rev. J. H.
Daily, of Day avenue, Tuesday after
noon with a request that he remarry
them. Mrs. Ewing managed to tell
Mrs. Daily that she was not in favor
of the ceremony, but feared to do
otherwise, as the man had threatened
her life if she refused. This informa-
ton was quietly tipped off to the
police who arrived before the knot
was tied and arrested the would-be
bridegroom, who was frisked of a 80
gun when searched at the station.
In the municipal court he was bound
over to the grand jury in the sum
of $4,000 on the charge Of carrying
concealed weapons.
