SUBMARINES WILL
HAVE THE LATEST
RADIO EQUIPMENT

Submarines of the United States
navy will soon be equipped with
the latest improvements in radio.
These improvements are such.
say naval engineers, that the?
will be capable of sending mes
sages up to a radius of 300 miles in
the daytime and much farther at
night. This is three times the dis
tance spanned by the radio sets
now installed in the submarines.
An order for SO new sets of the
latest type has been issued by the
navy department. These sets, how
ever, will be formed from old ap-
paratus along a design set up
after careful experimentation by
the naval radio experts. 1t will
mean saving of nearly 100000
in the cost Of the sets.
Although detailed specifications
of these new radio sets are with
held, it is learned that they are
Of the latest tyne of vacuum tube
apparatus. Their efficiency, it is
said. will vie with those of the
German submarines which sue
ceeded in sending messages at
night as far as 800 or 1000 miles to
their bases.
The new apparatus on the Amer
lean submarines will be able to re-
ceive long-wave signals while the
craft is submerged to a depth of
about twenty feet.

BAN on RADIO m
CHINA; AMATEURS
HAVE HARD TIME

It's q hard life for radio fans in
China. reports E. T. Lockwood to
"'QST," official organ OF the Ameri-
can Radio Relay league.
Lockwood writes that Shanghai
is the only place in the whole Of
China where the radio amateur has
some freedom. The Peking govern
ment has issued a general order
that no radio stations are allowed.
But since Shanghai is under the
jurisdiction of an international
municipal council. amateurs have
been permitted to erect stations
and communicate with one another
at whatever wave length they
please.
In spite Of this, however, even
the fans in Shanghai have their
difficulties, reports Lockwood. Ma
terial for construction Of their sets
is scarce.
Vacuum tubes and other equip
ment," says Lockwood, mot only
retail for several times their value
as in America, but are classed by
the customs officials the same as
guns and ammunition, and often re
quire special permits from Peking
in order to permit them"
