Radio Corporation of America.
Through the courtesy of officisls of
the United States line number OF fur
ther experiments will be made on the
voyage OF the steamship America from
this port on April Is, to supplement the
valuable data which was obtained on the
last two voyages on the subject of 6u-
pick or two-way radio telephony. These
experiments will be especially directed
towards simultaneous operation of the
radio telephone and telegraph systems
so that passenger or a short station
telephone subscriber may obtain tele-
phone connection by radio without refer
ence to any Geographic message work
which may be taking place on the ship
at the time.
The original installation on the
America was made only to test out I'M
der actual service conditions the problem
OF two-way telephone operation. The
ether became for the first time merely
an intermediate toll line in the connec-
ton between passenger and land SUBJ
scriber. These tests were very success
full, butt It was found that operation was
somewhat limited by the right OF way"
which had to be observed for the regular
radio telegraph set on the vessel. and IL
Is this limitation which engineers of the
Radio Corporation OF America, the Cen
eral Electric Company and the American
Telephone & Telegraph Company seek
to eliminate on the next voyage.
In two such closely allied subjects as
wire and space telephony it is not at all
strange that history repeats itself TO
such striking degree. In the pioneer
days OF the wire telephone one-way COM
munication was standard, and Il was not
until much inventive skill paved the way
that the present two-way system was
finally developed. Radio engineers. in
their turn, are now just emerging into
the same plane of success in their spe-
cial field.
1t is almost universal standard prac-
tise in radio telegraph sets TO use a
send receive switch. so that the an
tenna may be connected to the trans
mitter or to the receiver depending on
which one Is to be used. When radio
telephony first began to be used to any
degree. which was in the sub-chaser

Berlin, April 8.
The anti-Bolshevist Aim entitled THE
Round Dance OF Death is similar to the
German propaganda Aim The Auction
OF Souls" and is creating a sensation in
Berlin particularly by reason OF the
large number of Bolsheviki in Berlin.
The Aim depicts the tragic fate OF the
Russian aristocracy. A young count lie
forced to join the Red army, while his
wife Is brought before the revolutionary
tribunal. After struggle with for
mer servant, who had become COM
missary and attempts to force his love
upon her. the wife escapes.
A princess who joins the communists
through idealsm is made heartsick by
the brutality OF the Bolshevih and
fees. The leading character is named
Olga Tschechor, after the niece OF a
famous Russian author. The plot Is
taken from an anti-Bolshevist novel by
Maxim Chrumow.

Washington in the harbor OF Brest
France, distance OF more than 5000
miles.
In the installation recently tried out
on the $. $. America the circuit was to
some extent similar to that used on the
George Washington. but with additional
rcfinements as developed by the progress
of the art. Thse improvements repre-
sented a small further advance over the
previous installations and thus the
Americas installation may we'll be said
to be the best radio telephone system
that exists to-day.
This particular DEVELOPMENT OF the
two way radio telephone, the latest In
the field. was originally worked out by
the engineers of the Western Electric
Company. and the particular apparatus
tested on the ship was designed and
manufactured by the General Electric
Company according to It's own radio
methods, but following the main idea
of the original design. II Is expected
that after ell the details have been
finally worked out tho delay In estab-
fishing connections between shore and
ship and the certainty OF service will
not be different from that experienced
in ordinary overland communication.
The necessity for careful service
trials OF all new methods before giving
them TO the public explains the appar-
ent delay that has existed In making
ship to shore telephony available for
commercial purposes. Plans have been
worked out whereby the Radio Cor
poration OF America will install on
ships carrying It's equipment combined
radio telegraph and telephone equip
nent capable OF giving several radio
telephone either toll lines TO land,
which will be picked up on the shore

Beach. N. j.. operated by the American
Telephone and Telegraph Company. and
thence transferred to any toll line on
the American continent. Tests between
ship and shore have been going on for
almost two years, under the auspices Of
the American Telephone and Telegraph
Company. IN order 20 work out the do

Since the opening OF the Tonsil Hos

March. 1921. over 500 free tonsil opera
tons have been performed for the poor,
it was announced yesterday. The staff
is made up of specialists who volunteer
their services. The hospital has a ca
pacity of 1000 cases year and was
organized to care for the thousands OF
New York city children requiring tonsil
and adenoid operations whose parents
are unable to pay the usual fee.
According to the report Of the New
York Academy of Medicine, the per-
centage OF school children needing tonsil
or adenoid operations has increased from
ten per cent. to fifteen per cent. In the
last ten years. This infection, 1t is as
serted. causes more school absences than
any other illness. Modern treatment re-
quires more time for the care OF each
case and the hospitals are overtaxed.
Some have waiting lists of from zoo to
700 patients and make appointments Tor
