Wireless Now Writes Its Own Message

ID HEATING the German and other for O eign scientists to the goal and in- augurating new era in wireless com munication, Dr. D. A. Eckhardt and Dr. J. c. Karcher of the bureau of standards have succeeded in recording radio signals autographically.
 When this invention is perfected and In general use receiving operators lis tening day and night for the signals with their elaborate listening appara- tus will be unnecessary The radio will write its own message with pen and ink.
 Before a group of fellow scientists at the meeting of the Philosophical so- ciety at the Cosmos club, Doctors Eek hardt and Karcher demonstrated that their apparatus could take out of the air signals sent out from Lyons, France, 4,000 miles away, and auto matically transform them into humpy ink lines on a chart that can be easily read
 They have also been able to place in the same circuit and record with the same pen the ticks of chronom- eter, and the naval observatory time signals sent out regularly by Annapo- lis

UlASHINGTON-The United States
 W holds Germany responsible for the war and will insist that Germany make all the reparation in it's power for tke devastation and sufferings of innocent peoples wrought by it's inexeusable act of aggression. This is the attitude of President Harding and his administra- ton as authoritatively made known.
 Whatever peace program the admin Astration evolves is to be made consist Int with this fundamental declaration. The United States will do nothing that would permit Germany to escape full responsibility for the war. Germany, moreover, the administration holds, must admit responsibility for the war and must be compelled to pay damages to the full extent of it's ability as de termined in fair and just manner,

blood and treasure in the war, would do or say aught that would enable Ger many to escape fulfillment of it's just obligations to the victims of aggres- sion is not only absurd but distinctly repugnant to the administration.
 This is the answer to the fears en- tertained among the allies that the United States contemplates a course which would encourage Germany to re- sist payment of reparations and to German hopes that the United States can be relied upon to help Germany escape paying the penalty.
 Whether the separations exacted of Germany by the allies under the terms of the Versailles treaty are more than Germany is able to pay and whether these separations have been deter mined in a fair and just manner are questions upon which the administra- tion is not stating Its position at this time
 That the Presidents attitude as to Germany's responsibility, however, means that the administration will ac- cede to the wishes of the allies as to the continued participation of the United States in European affairs does not follow. The ratification of the Versailles treaty, even with such modi- fieations as were embodied in the Lodge reservations, Is now out of the question.
