CHINA ADOPTS
RADIOPHONE
Uses Commercial Sets for
Long Distance
Service.
LONGEST CIRCUIT
Connects Cities Formerly Iso-
lated from Outside
World.
LONGEST CIRCUIT

China will put into operation this
week the longest commercial radio
telephone circuit in the world.
Radio telephone sets have been
installed at Pekin and Tientsin.
bridging a gap OF ninety miles.
They have been connected with the
regular telephone lines of the Chi
nese Government. When a, tele-
phone subscriber in Pekin desires
to talk with a friend in Tientsin,
he puts in his call in the usual
manner to the operator at Pekin
who signals Tientsin over radio
channel. The Tientsin operator In
turn makes the necessary connec-
ton and the conversation Is on. So
far az the operation OF the system
is concerned. the procedure is no
different from what 1t would be II
wire connections were provided
throughout. 90
Formerly Cut on.
In the past Pekin has been
practically deprived of all long
distance telephone connection with
the other cities of China. The in
terurban lines operating out Of the
Celestial capital are so few and the
demands for service so great that
telephone subscribers have found II
difficult to get service. To add to
the difficulties of the Government
Department OF Communications, the
robber bands that have infested the
country since the start Of the
Peking-Canton differences have
learned the value of copper and
have acquired a nasty habit of &C.
casionally cutting down unprotect.
ed telephone wires.
Both of these troubles will Ge
obviated by the new aerial circuit
as far as Pekin and Tientsin are
concerned.
To the United States goes the
credit of giving China the means
for simplifying its telephone prob
lens. The radio apparatus was
provided by the International West
ern Electric Company and manufac-
tured in this country at the labor
atories of the Western Electric
Company in New York City. It was
the latter company that built the
transmitting and receiving equip
ment used in the first successful
transatlantic radio. telephone ex-
periments in 1915.
Have Special Features.
The radio sets supplied TO the
Chinese have special features to
insure the greatest freedom pos
sible from interference both from
atmospheric electricity and from
other stations. The normal range
Of the transmitters is approximate
ly 100 miles under fairly severe
conditions.
Under favorable conditions the
sets have very much greater
range. During the installation De-
riod. number of tests were made
In which music was broadcasted
from the transmitting station. In
some of these tests the music was
heard at points 1000 miles away
from the transmitting station.
