transmissions such as $4,000 miles
never reach the receiving station
due to the high resistance of the
atmospheric envelope. (The low
resistance of the earth as compared
with this was explained in The
Herald last Sunday.
More experiments were success

four hours a day: not a single

pow would be required to propa-
gate waves through the earth's
crust as a conducting medium, than
to propagate them through the in
sulated atmospheric enveloper alone.
Conducting experiments to sub
stantiate his theories, DR.. Rogers
met with the success stated above
and the complete satisfaction Of au-
thorities. In explanation of his sys-
tenn which could not be explained
by theories up to that time ac-
tepted, scientists declared "the en-
ergy loss through the earth by the
present system is dissipated in the
form OF heat" the .heaYy-side ion
ization theory Wa still current and
many maiantainet that. ether is
the only conducting medium through
which electromagnetic waves can
be transmitted"
Proved by Experiments.
DR.. Rogers. persisted in his con-
viction that the earth was a proper
conducting medium for the propa-
cation of electro-static waves. In
1916 he proved water was likewise
such a medium. Experiment after
experiment only served to prove
these statements. In that year an
airplane overhead, a battleship on
the surface of the sea, submarine
beneath the ocean and an army
base employing the Rogers system
of communication were continuous
ly in communication with one an
other. This, together with num-
erous other experiments made by
DIR. Rogers substantiated the state
ment Of Capt. s. S. Robson. U. s. N:
Mr.. ]. H. Rogers perfected the first
successful long distance under
ground receiving system"
DIR. Rogers Explanation.
DIR. Rogers then formulated the
following explanation of the opera
ton of the underground aerial:
"(D Electric energy liberated at
the base of an antenna will be prop
agated through the earth even in
the absence of the space above,
were this condition possible. (2)
The earth and water waves are not
dependent on each other, except
when first propagated. (S) Both
the earth and the air waves are
propagated at the same time. one
above and the other below the sur
face of the earth"
DR.. Rogers further explains;
Either waves die out eventually in
proportion to the earth's curvature
and the distance over which they
are propagated. At great distances
ether space waves have no appre>
ciable effect on receiving apparatus
The apparatus is energized by en-
ersy transmitted through the earth,
Ground currents travel with the
speed of light and are picked up at
the receiving station. The space

due to wind and storms which had
previously made antennas sup
ported on towers useless and had
endangered the lives of operators
were not even heard. Receiving
stations at both Belmar, n. j., and
Great Lakes employing the usual
overhead antennas were forced to
abandon their schedules during
similar conditions. Further expert
ments convinced authorities that
the overhead antennas were still
necessary for transmission and for
reception of short-wave lengths.
Today, however, transmission to an
extent has been accomplished by
use of the Rogers underground
aerial. Further Developments and
the reception of short waves lust
accomplished makes the system
adaptable to radiophone communi-
cations and will cause the aban-
| donment'- of high, expensive, inef-
fcient, dangerous and too promis-
cuous towers.
Changes Wave Theory.
1t is well here to review theories
which have led to this recent ac-
complishment. 1t was thought dur
ing the early days of radio COM
munication that electrostatic waves
travel in planes perpendicular to
the surface of the earth, that ca
pacity SO necessary to transmits
sion or reception was contained
between long wires extended at
great heighth above the earth's
surface and the earth itself. This
FORMED a huge condenser Great
length Of wires and their height
increased the receiving or trans
mission range of the station in
question because of the Increased
CAPACITY afforded. Huge towers
were therefore erected. This was
considered an ideal ARRANGEMENT
TOT the reception of radio waves.
Defects I'm Tower System.
After repeated trials the follow
ing defects of the system became
apparent: The towers were very
costly to erect and maintain.
months were required to build and
equip them, they were targets for
every form of atmospheric disturb
ance-storms, static and stravs.
they were not directional to incom.
ing waves; they were Conspicuous
IN time Of war. In short, the
lowers were needed only for trans
mission and the reception of short
waves.
Recognizing the import of these
Facts DR.. Harris Rogers in 1908 con-
ceiyed the following theories which
later enabled him to substitute the
present system of underground
aerials. '1' -
DR.. Rogers Theories.
The energy liberated at tn. has,
OF the aerial is propogated through
the earth as well as through the
ether above. An elevated aerial AZ
a great distance would be actuated
oy these earth waves just as ef-
fectually as II the waves reached
the same point through the ether.
when, these earth waves reached
the base of the aerial the potential
of the plate (earth) would be raised
and lowered and the aerial ener-
gized accordingly" Furthermore
