 INTERESTS UNITE Postal Telegraph and Radio Corp. Will Work Hand in Hand

New York, Sept. l2.-Clarence H
 Mackay, president of the Postal Telegraph Cable Co.,, announced yes terday that his company had entered into an agreement with the Radio Corp. of America, by which the Postal Telegraph places at the service Of the Radio Corp. its land lines sys- tenn extending to all parts of the United States for the collection and delivery of Transatlantic radio mes sages, The agreement provides that the Postal Telegraph shall accept at all of the offices wherever located
 dispatches to be sent to Europe via radio" while the Radio Corp. will turn over to the postal Telegraph all messages received by it for delivery to land line points reached by the Postal Telegraph.
 In making this statement MT. Mac kay explained the action had been taken by this company in pursuance of its policy of furthering in every ossible way American interests in the field of International communication and as a progressive step in the in terest of the public to the end that every form of communication service will be made available at all offices of the Postal Telegraph Cable Com pany. Heretofore it has been virtu- ally impossible for persons situated outside of New York to avail them selves of Trans ns-Atlantic wireless serv- ice because the Radio Corporation does not maintain offices elsewhere and has no wires or other means for reaching inland points except at Washington, D. c. Under the new contract the Postal Telegraph will &C., cept at and deliver from all of its offices through the entire country, radio messages. thus making the Trans Atlantic radio service available to everyone and incidentally supple ,nenting its present telegraph and cable facilities.
 MT. Mackay said yesterday that the Postal Telegraph had been following telegraphy and while he is of the opinion, in which radio experts con- cur, that the radio never will sup plant the cables, still it will have it's special field as an adjunct to the cables and stimulus to the in creased use of communication by telegraph, cable and radio. In order that America may maintain it's pres ent position in the art of communica- ton he stated that his company had just consummated an agreement with the telefunken company of Germany, the great radio manufacturing con- pany, which has constructed radio stations in all parts of the world, whereby the Mackay interests secure the right to purchase from the Tele funken company all the high powered radio apparatus necessary to con- struction in the United States one or more high powered radio stations for the transaction of radio business. | This contract also carries with it the right to a proportion of the wireless traffic out of Germany and also to change Radio traffic with the tele funken stations in all parts of the world This insures the Mackay in- terests the opportunity of entering the radio field as competitive factor with its own organization if it so de- sires

The resources of the is- land being limited, they are too poor to meet the taxes which are troubling the village assembly. As a way out of the difficulty the assembly has de- cided to sell the island at the price of 120,000 yen, together with $500 yen for the fishing rights. It is reported that the inhabitants of Rishima, neighboring island with population of 305 persons also are desirous of selling their island.

SPEAR IS ELECTED
 FINANCE CHAIRMAN
Succeeds Thomson on Y. M. C. A. Board--Report Of Summer Work

George P. Spear was elected as chairman of the Y. NJ. c. A. finance committee last evening to succeed Henry C, NJ. Thomson, who was com pelled to resign because of ill health and consequent inability to give the attention necessary to outside pro- jects. Joseph c. Lamb was named member of the directorate.
 The directors received the regular report of the general secretary, c. H. Barnes, which embodied the follow ing review of the summers activi- ties:
 Summer Activities.
 "The summer activities have cen- tered around the bathing facilities, the shower baths and swimming pool proving as big an attraction as ever. 10,300 baths were taken during the past three months. The summer membership rate of S. for four months was taken advantage of by 50 men, many of whom will continue their membership during the fall and winter.
 Swimming periods for members of the boys department were held in stead of gym classes during July and August Classes for teaching swimming were also held for men and boys, 17 being taught the art. Twice a week the privilege of the baths and swimming pool was accorded the boys of the city playgrounds, with an attendance of 557,
 Hand ball proved nearly as pop ular as in the winter, an average of 200 players per month enjoying the game during the hot weather.
 Aside from their duties in othe building the physical directors found time to serve in outside activities. The physical program at the state boys camp was planned and promot- cd by our physical department staff. Eight athletic contests s aquatic contests and ? road races were run off for the boys at Camp Hazen, and 45 boys were taught to swim.
 Twenty eight boys and leaders were sent to Camp Hagen from New Britain, which proved to be one of the biggest delegations from any city in the state. The camp opened for its third season the latter part of June and closed just before school opened Boys from the different as- sociations of the state gather there for their vacations and the camp has proved of great value, especially to camp of their own, This year the camp will be further utilized for a conference for Y, M. c.

GIVE THE CHILD A BONE.
Advice Issued by British Dental As-
 sociation for Care of Teeth.

London, Sept. 12.-Here are the rules of the British Dental associa- ton for the care of children's teeth.
 Be sure the child sleeps with the mouth shut, and when awake breathes through the nose. From the age of two let each meal contain some food that needs grinding. Be- gin the child's education in hard foods at nine months by giving it a bone, preferably chop bone, with a little meat on, to exercise its gums Do not let children drink until the end of the meal. Avoid many sweets and sweet biscuits, and only give them as part of a meal. Finish each meal with a piece of fresh fruit or crisp salads or, if these are not ob- tainable, a stale crust sf bread, with butter if preferred, but not with jam.

FEVER SWEEPS
SOVIET RUSSIA
Volga Famine Area Chiefly
Affected; Moscow Is Suf-
fering

Moscow, March 20.-Soviet Russia
II once more under the shadow Of an
epidemic wave of typhus fever and
recurrent typhus which has been
spreading since November last. The
In the center Of Russia the epidemic
has invaded the big towns of the
Moscow and Petrograd governmental
districts and in the west the cities OF
Min.k, Smolensk, Witebsk and In the
north Vologda.
In Moscow itself the epidemic Is
growing rapidly and the toll which it
Is exacting from the Moscow popula-
ton is already now seven to eight
and it Is feared that before the win
ter months are over it might we'll
overgrow the epidemic Of 1919.
In December yer 1000 cases OF
typhus were registered in Moscow.
while during the first three weeks Of
January 4,783 cases were registered
in hospitals Bnt h real number OF
cases is much higher than this
figure.
Tho epidemic shows no decline ana
death casualties nre not below 40 per
cent. Hospitals and medicaments are
very inadequate. The Moscow hospi-
tails are o~vercrowded and the Mos
COW Soviet Is trying to provide 5000
new beds in them to meet the cpl
demic.
Tho railways are the channels by
which the epidemic is carried from
the famine stricken area into Mos
COW. Every train brings lice from
the Volga district. The Moscow sta
tione where many refugees homes as
we'll az prisons, concentration camps
and the Tartar hoftela ara the chief
centcrs which feed the epidemic here.
To cope with tho situation, tho
government stopped passenger traffic
on the Eastern railways for six
weeks. Baths have been organized
Mt Moscow railway terminals and! all
refugees and military detachments
arriving here are compelled to use
them. In Moscow itself bathing ia
cilities were afforded in all districts.
