ONLY RADIO PLANT IN CHINA
BARRED TO COMMERCIAL USE
Agreement Between Powers Puts America
in That Position Alone Because of
Restriction on Stations.

Hsuangchiao station is six miles out
side of Peking.
In addition to these there are
numerous small receiving stations
maintained by foreign governments
Until the present agreement was
drawn up there was little hesitancy
on the part Of any government to put
up wireless stations to suit its pleas
ure. When the federal wireless loan
was negotiated by the Chinese gov
ernment in January of this year the
Mitsui and MarconI companies, back
ed by the Japanese and British gov
ernments, protested and the Ameri-
can government supported the fed
eral company. The two companies
alleged prior contracts.
The Marconi company, holds wire
less telephone concession, which
method of communication is espe-
cially adapted to China. The 5000
different ideographs in the Chinese
language are telegraphed by giving
Zach one number. In sparsely set
led portions of the vast republic it
IS difficult to maintain lines. as the
natives find the telegraph poles more
useful for firewood than for COM
munications from distant cities. For
both these reasons the wireless tele-
phone fits in with China's peculiar
needs. However. like many other
concessions. it has not gone far be-
yond the documentary stage.

BY JUNIus b. WOOD.

By signing the agreement between
the powers as to radio stations in
China the United States puts itself in
the magnanimous position of being
the- only government owning large
wireless station which is prohibited
from sending or receiving CONNER
cial, personal or press messages. AT
present there is only one American
radio station In China, ana is
owned by the government. 1t is the
highest powered and said by experts
to be the most modern of all the sta
tions. 1t comes under the restriction
making it valueless for public use.
