STATIC CHECKS
FIRST KIWANlS
RADIO TRY0UI'
Local Receiving Sets Fail to
Tune in Successfully With
Denver and Seattle.

Static electricity interfered Tuesday
night with tests made by local RADIO
operators so that they could not tune
in successfully with stations at Den
yer and Seattle in response to re-
quests made by L. G.. Flint, president
of the Great Falls Kiwanis club, who
plans a telephone concert as a
feature of the ladies' night program
which will be held early in May.
Arrangements had been made with
G, II. Wilks, 1927 Seventh avenue
north, who has a three stage amplifi-
cation radio set installed in his home,
to communicate with him in Seattle at
8 o'clock and Great Falls operators
were advised and invited to listen in
It was not possible to effect the con-
versation due to the static in the air
although Mrs. Wilks was able to hear
bits Of musical concert from a Seat
tie station.
Static Worse Than for Some Time
Clark Turner, 515z Sixth avenue
north. said that he was unable to tune
In for Seattle at all, but could hear
Denver and Stockton, Cal, plainly. His
phones were clear and the musical con-

BAND MAY DISBAND
If SUPPORT FAILS

Unless public spirited citizens Of
Great Falls subscribe their financial
support, the municipal band will be
forced to disband, according to William
Moerl, who is to have charge Of the
campaign planned by the Kiwanis club
to raise $1,000 for public band concerts
this summer.
There has been considerable talk
among the members Of the band rela-
tive to disorganization," said Mr.. Moerl.
Last summer the band was called upon
only twice to furnish music and the
members feel that threatened repeti-
ton Of this support does not warrant
the continuance of the organization for
| another season. It is necessary that
funds be raised by public subscription
If the band is to continue as a com
mnnity organization"
The kiwanis club, in a resolution
adopted last December, agreed to un-
dertake the task Of raising $4,000,
which is believed to be sufficient to
meet the expense Of series Of free
public concerts. Members Of the club
expect to start Friday morning in their
canvass Of the city for funds.

casted from stations that are 1000
or more miles away, due to the static
caused by the late sunset, radio op-
orators say, and it is not always pos
sible to establish listening in parties
for that reason.
Broadcastlng Station Planned Here
A broadcasting set, installed in
Great Falls would be the means Of pro-
yiding all Of the radio enthusiasts in
the state with either musical concert
entertainments or educational ad-
dresses, local authorities say, and the
installation Of such a set is advocated
by the radio fans here. It has been
rumored that business firm In the
city is contemplating the installation Of
a broadcasting set within the next 30
days, but confirmation of the report
has not yet been made.
The plan for the Kiwanis entertain
ment by way Of the wireless telephone
will remain indefinite until another
test is made, Mr. Flint said Tuesday
night. Tentative plans are to attach
a Magnavox intensifier to the phones

 The National Council recommends to the general convention that the name of the church 1t take action as follows:
 Be It Resolved, That in sympathy with the resolutions Of the Lambeth conference of 1920 we desire to cm- phasize our conviction that the pur- suit Of mere self-interest, whether in- dividual or corporate. will never bring healing to the wounds O. society IL should be recognized as ah outstsrd- ing and pressing duty of the church to convince its members of the ne- cessity of nothing less than funda- mental change in the spirit and working Of our social ana industrial life. This change can only be effect ed by accepting as the basls Of all our relations the principle of cooperation in service for the common good in place of unrestricted competition for private or sectional advantage.
 Resolved Further, That in obedi- ence to Christ's teaching as to covet- ousness and self-seeking, the general calls upon ali members of His church to be foremost both by personal action and sacrifice In rnain- the superiority of the claims Of human life to those of property. To this end 1t would emphasize the duty which Is laid upon all Christians Of putting human values first. of avoiding extravaganza and waste, and | of upholding {. high standard of hon. pr and thoroughncss In work.

 Plea for Peace

London, July 29.-(Associated d Press s,)-"More terrible machines than in the late war are being constructed" said Prime Minister Lloyd George at a luncheon given by 300 prominent Free Churchmen yesterday.
 What for? To attack cities and main, destroy and burn helpless wom- en and children. Keep your eyes on what Is happening. If the children of Europe and America allow that to fructify they had better close their doors, We reduced our armaments and If other nations follow the ex- ample there will be no serious menace to peace. But 1t is difficult for na- ton to remain defenseless while oth- CTS are preparing for war"

 War Germs.
 "The war germ is like any other germ-you do not know that you have it until it has got you. Ii is of no use arguing with an epileptic when the fit is on him. There is that atmosphere in the world now and the explosive material is scattered over the face of Europe.
 When a match is dropped it is too late to wave the covenant of the League of Nations It is the new spirit that is wanted. Lock up the explosives and especially look on those given to dropping matches. The churches must promote the new spirit ] which is necessary"
 The Prime Minister said that he at- .ached high hopes to the League of Nations He said that civilization would be safe if the league succeeded If 1t failed, civilization was doomed, 1e thought.
 II have seen the horrors of war and hey made me VOW to concentrate my energy to making it impos- 'ible for humanity again to pass through the fire. the torment the ,ruelty, the horror and the squalor of var" declared Mir. Lloyd George.
