Enormous are the possibilities of
ending secrecy, the cancer of civil

the way. Maybe not. But this is
worth thinking about-that the wire

BEHIND YOUR BACK.

Va
no longer protects you from
having people listen in on your con-
versation.
The Society for Electrical Devel-
opment announces that Albert E.
Proffitt, employed by the telephone
company at Providence, R. l., has
perfected a radiophone device that
enables him to eavesdrop on talk
passing over telephone wires.
Proffitt, experimenting with his
radiophone, wired his amplifier in
some peculiar way that is being
kept secret. Immediately he began
to- hear local telephone conversa4
tions-which he repeated to the talk
ers, amazing them.
While Proffitt's device still is in
embryonic stage of development it
opens up vast new field for the
wireless-the possible ending of Sc
erecy, duplicity, intrigue and talking
behind ones back.
You cannot sit in your home and
eavesdrop on a conversation in a
house mile away without mechan-
zeal help.
The eafesdropping for some years
has been possible by means of the
simple photograph employed by de-
tectives.
The listening-in process is carried
a step further by Proffitt's radio
discovery. 1t is not impossible that
we soon may have wireless device
able to pick up private converse
tons liz distant homes, offices or
rendezvous of criminals.
The idea SENS uncanny now. So
did the wireless telegraph when
Marconi first announced its inven-
ton.
Civilization will advance with leaps
and bounds when secrecy among
men is made impossible. Without
secrecy there could be no criminal
organizations, war plots, illegal trade
combines or conspiracies against in
dividual life, honor or fortune.
End secrecy and you end dishon-
esty born of intrigue.

s"WHY PICK ON US?'

THERE is a hatful of sense IN the
L following which is being passed
out by concern handling an article
sold by grocers:
The woods are full of amateur
economists who claim that prices of
groceries will shortly return to pre-
war levels. Will they? Yes, they
sure will
When railroad fares are back to
&c per mile;
When gasoline is back to 1Oc per
gallon; 800
When house rent is back to $40
per month;
When square meal can be had
for a quarter;
When farm labor is back to SIS
per month;
When shaves are back to 10c;
When clothes are back to SIS a
suit;
When money is back to five
per cent;
When cooks are back to $500 per
week;
When hair cuts are back to a
quarter;
When movies are back to nickel
When ice cream is back at dime
When a doctors bill is back at
two bucks;
When a newspaper is back at a
penny.
For the love of Mike, why cx-
pect the manufacturer, wholesaler
and retailer of groceries to go the
route alone? Why expect US and no
one else to go back to pre-war prices?
Why pick on us? We are away
ahead of the procession. Now let
the BARRIERS and the movie houses
and the soft drink narlors and the
landlords, and the hotels and restau-
rants and the draymen and the bank
ers, cut their prices and catch up
with US.
Pick on somebody else.
We've been the goat long enough.

UNIVERSITY CONCERTS AND LECTURES TO BE
 BROADCAST BY RADIO

High school assemblies through out the state will soon enjoy. by radio, all speeches and concerts being given at the University of Arizona. This was made possible when the board of regents, at their recent meeting, affirmed the appropriation requested of them by Dean G. M. Butler for the erection of a broadcasting radio plant.
 The work of erecting steel radio tower 15O feet high is to be effected at an early datev under supervision of the university cleo. trical engineering department.
 The tower, from which will be flashed the musical numbers or lectures to a hundred high school audiences simultaneously, is to be placed directly east of the pergola and south of the campus swim ming pool. From 50-foot tower, placed on the roof of the Mines building wires will be stretched to the larger tower.

Fenerett graduate fellow in the department of agricultural chemistry, and Robert H. Burns, assistant to the professor of animal husbandry.
 Among members of the university faculty, many expressions of gratifi- cation at the choice of the regents in selecting Dr. .Cloyd H. Marvin to head the institution were heard yesterday.
 "Dr. Marvin was an unusually for tunate discovery" said Dr. Frank c. Lockwood, especially as it was all most an accident that he was brought to the attention of the regents.

 Grave fears are felt for the safety of Smyrna. If the Turks capture Ushak, they will be on the main railway line to Smyrna, which is about 150 miles westward.
 Anxiety is felt for the large Chris tian clements in the war area. It is feared the Turks may take reprisals against them for the action of the Greek army in burning scores of Turk ish villages on it's advance toward Angora.
 The non-resistance and apparent apathy of the Athens government to- ward the invasion of the Turks is bringing forth great resentment among the residents of Smyrna, con siderable portion of whom are British American, French and Italian. They say that the folly of King Constantine in diverting 5O.O0O of the best troops of Greece to Thrace in vain endea- vor to realize his Constantinople en- terprise may cost Greece the whole of Smyrna.
