In an attempt to provide employees
with approximately equal working
time, the Davis Coal and Coke Com
pany has been distributing its coal
orders among the different mines as
equitably as possible. During the last
six months, according to a notice to
employees, this policy has been very
burdensome to the company and it is
now found necessary to concentrate
business and working forces to pro
duce the tonnage required to fill or
ders from a few mines in an attempt
to meet competitive conditions. An
order which goes into effect in Feb.
ruary states that all mines will be
closed down indefinitely with the ex-
ception of one or two which may be
found necessary to supply the small
amount of business now carried on
by the company.

THE CONTROL OF BROADCAST.
ING
Lesson No. 81

Lesson No. 81
The enormous increase, during
the last few months in the number
of broadcasting stations, resulting
in the need for immediate action to
effectively control the installation
and operation of radio stations was
the main reason for the recent gath
aring in Washington of the Depart
ment of Commerce Conference on
Radio-telephony. AT the present
time all broadcasting stations with
the exception of a few Government
stations are operating on the wave
length of $50 meters which means
that the receiving set is tuned 10
that wave length in order - hear
any one of the broadcasting stations
which may be within range. If two
stations happen to be operating
simultaneously the receiving opera
tor may hear them both and it is
practically impossible to pick out
either one.
If the recommendations of the
conference are followed several sta
tons in certain locality may ope-
rate SIillu!ldeHouS4y WllnOuJ inter-
fering with each other and the re-
ceiving operator will merely have
TO shift his receiving adjustments to
pick up any station ne may desire to
hear. The entire wave length group
from 2S5 to meters is recommends
cd for the use of broadcasting sta
tions which carry on a service for
entertainment purposes. Other
classes of broadcasting may be con-
Quoted on wavelengths up to 200
metres. 1t is obvious, that import
ant services like ship 10 shore radio
telegraph communications should
not be sacrificed or services not so
essential and operating wavelengths
for coastal broadcasting stations
vii be selected as to cause a mini
mum of interference with such SER
vices.
Even the amateur will benefit by
the proposed changes in the assign
ment Of wave lengths. While the
maximum wavelengths which he
may now use is POO meter the con-
ference has approved increasing this
to 275 meters. This will permit the
use Of more efficient amateur trans

SENATORIAL CAMPAIGN IS NOW
DRAWING NEAR ITS CLOSE
&E2-.

Richmond, Va, July 25.-The open
ing of the speaking tour OF former
Governor Westmoreland Davis IN
Rappahannock county recently mark
ed the beginning at the verbal pyro-
technics Of the senatorial campaign
which has been a rather tame affair
heretofore.
Senator Swanson has issued a
statement of his record and an
address to the voters which may De
said to contain his platform. he
has announced thai he would not un-
detrtake any speaking which inter
cred with the performance OF ms
senatorial duties which are now eX-
ceedingly exacting and have been Tor
many months.
In this connection it will be re-
membered that he followed a SINH
liar course when he had opposition
in 1911. At that primary election ne
was returned to the Senate by vote
of nearly three to one over his OPP
ponent who is now his colleague.
So it will be seen that the people
of Virginia approve candidate pre-
ferring to stick to his job, rather
than chase the elusive voters over the
| State
AS Senator Glass is known to be
one or the ablest stump speakers in
America, it is reasonable to con-
clude that former Governor Davis,
who has no reputation as a speaker,
cannot hope to do better than Mr..
Glass did in the campaign of 1911.
1t will also be remembered that
! Senator Glass was then backed by an
enthusiastic group Of Democrats who
were well organized in his behalf
while Mr.. Davis has only such a
personal machine as he has been able
to build up by patronage and other
wise during his term as Governor.
Most of the leaders for Mr.. Glass in
his campaign against Senator Swan
son are now said to be supporting
Senator Swanson. Practically all
! of the issues upon which the Demo-
cratic factions then divided have now
disappeared and Senator Swanson's
loyalty to the National Democratic
administration during the war, the
high honor which has been done him
by his colleague in placing him upon
| important committees, giving promise
of increased eficieucr IN the future,
have won over to him many who
formerly opposed him.
Mr.. Davis has the advantage Of
having been without official respon-
sibility since he relinquished the
Governorship on the first of last
February. Since that date he has
been free to travel over the state and
build his fences. He has issued many
appeals to the voters I'm mis- paper, the
Southern Planter. in pamphlets and in
personal letters. Nor does he apear
to lack ample means to carry on
what must be q Yerp, expensive cam
paign. However, if the reports that
are being sent to Senator .Swanson's
headquarters in Richmond are any
criterion of sentiment in the state,
there is small prospect that the form
er Governor has been able TO CAPTURE
any substantial portion Of the large
personal following which the Senator
has enjoyed for many years in Viz
ginia.

hitting sets since many amateurs
have had great difficulty in keeping
within the 200 meter limit without
sacrificing the range of their equip

1t is further recommended that
the power of broadcasting stations
be limited and stations employing
same wave length be not licensed
within a certain distance of each
other based upon the range of the
stations. Such control of broad

Dear Mr.. Shaw:
On Saturday. July 22d, | visited
IN my official capacity, the camp of
Troop No. 2, Alexandria. Cd. C..
Troop 1851 Boy Scouts of America.
This camp was located at Snowden-
oon-the Potomac, a few miles below
alexandra, on property kindly
Loaned to the Scouts by Mr.. F.. A.
thompson. The camp began on
Thursday, July Goth. and ended
Monday, July oath, and was organ
lzed and managed by Mr.. A. A..
Hun. who, | take pleasure in advis-
ing you, was performing the duties
OF Scoutmaster in a manner fully up
to the traditions of the Scouts and
most acceptably to the bows.
Iwenty-Seven scouts were present.
inspected the camp with a spe-
claI view to its sanitation, and
found 1t all that could be desired.
Inc tents were pitched on high
ground near the river, with plenty
OF shade available. This shade. how
ever, was not so dense as to inter-
fere with the proper ventilation of
tne sleeping quarters, and I found
all bedding clean and well sun dried.
Inc water came from fine deep
strata spring nearby and the food
was abundant. well balanced and
Well prepared, All sanitary ar
rangements were provided for in
the most approved manner. Con-
sidering the equipment at the dis
poSal OF this troop, would report
the camp as high c,ass in all res
poets. | venture to express the
hope that the parents of the bows
will so appreciate the advantages
of scouting that Alexandria will
before long be convinced of the de-
STABILITY of organizing its own
Scout Council, which, cooperating
with the National Council. will su-
pervise, encourage, and promote the
activities in Alexandria of the Bow
Scouts of America. The official
Scoutmaster of this troop is Mr.. W.
S. Grow, but Mr.. Grow was not
present at the time of nv inspec-
ton.
