tempt to rush through program

along the New England coast that
the French government will CO.
operate to aid radio enthusiasts here
In their broadcasting. The French
message, however. failed to state that
the wartime sweethearts there
would listen.in to the voices of their
doughboy buddies.
From an authoritative source last
night came q message that approx.
mately fifty doughboys here are plan.

with friends in France. No names
we're divulged. for the informant
hinted many of these veterans are
now married.
One of the most powerful amateur
transmitting stations here is owned
by Walter Parks, of the National
Electric Supply Company. 1t is
understood that he will easily reach
Europe by radio this December. Up
to this date, according 10 Parks, no
Washington doughboys have asked
permission ito speak" to France.
Using two 25O.watt tubes, the ap'
paratus of Parks has reached as far
