that went into the earth was lost
in the form Of heat But Rogers
could not believe it. So he began
experimenting.
The result was his discovery and
contention that not only did the
radio waves travel through the
earth but they did not encounter az
much resistance as when going
through the air.
After more than FIVE years of
further work on this discovery,
Rogers succeeded in interesting
government experts in the matter.
He showed them that by merely
burying a wire underground, he
could receive radio messages from
distant stations. The fact that tile
transmitting stations had outdoor
aerials did not matter.

BRITISH MAY NOT
USE ANY FOREIGN
RADIO APPARATUS

American and other foreign wire
less apparatus will be excluded
from use by British broadcasting
firms if a recommendation of Post
master-General Kellaway is adopt
ed by the cabinet. Mr.. Kellaway
urges that for a period of two years
licenses for broadcasting should
contain a provision that only Brit
ish instruments be used.
Following the example of Amer
lean journals, the British newspa-
pers and magazines are devoting
columns and pages to wireless top
les. But broadcasting in England
is in an almost nebulous stage, and
wireless receiving by the masses
has not attained anything like the
popularity it enjoys in the United
States. The government is slow in
inaugurating general broadcast
ing scheme.
Some newspapers there are warn
ing amateurs to be careful about
cheap receiving Sets-some Of them
of American and French origin

IF broadcasting were officially
established in England the whole
position would become clearer" w.

Rig up your antenna under
ground!
That is the suggestion of James
Harris Rogers, radio enthusiast and
inventor, who has shown that radio
communication through the earth is
possible.
In fact Rogers has had such sue
cess with his experiments that dur
ing the war the navy department
adopted his system for communica-
ton with submarines while they
were totally submerged.
Now Rogers announces a perfec-
ton of his idea on which he has
been working for the last 10 years.
1t, was in the infant years OF
wireless when Rogers first gave
thought to ground reception of ra-
dio signals. Half the radio energy
he understood, passed through the
air and the other half went into
the earth in order to complete the
radio circuit.
He saw the actual use OF the hall
that was being received by air
What became of that other hall
that passed into the earth?
Facing this problem, Rogers sci
himself to finding the solution. The
