WISCONSIN GOVERNOR
 ASKS COOPERATION

Memphis. Tenn, November 1S.-- Closer relationship and cooperation among the states in the Mississippi valley was urged here today by Gov. John J. Blaine of Wisconsin, who is making a tour of the valley to arouse greater interest in the aims and &C., complishments of the people of his own state.
 During the day Governor Blaine made several addresses, first speak ing before the Memphis Chamber of Commerce and City club. he praised the efforts which were under way to secure diversification of crops in the central southern states, and said that much of the prosperity of the farmers of Wisconsin had been brought about through such diversification
 The prosperity of one part of the Mississippi valley was dependent on that of the other parts, Governor Blaine declared. and added that many of the problems facing southern far mers today were the same as thoso of their northern neighbors.

decision also will react in another di- rection.
 "The supreme court decision deny ing Japanese the right to naturaliza- tion will, I believe. have the very important effect of taking American citizenship away from some 300 or 1000 Japanese who were naturalized because. of their service in the army
 or navy during the World war" he said. During the war Congress pro- vided that naturalization of aliens in the service should be expedited. These Japanese, although the law was not intended to apply to them, took advantage of it. If their status as citizens had been upheld it would have been possible for them to buy land and hold it here in California
 and other western states despite anti alien land laws"

FATE OF SENATOR M'CUMBER
IN HANDS OF VOTERS TODAY

| far as opportunity to get in hard cam
| paigning is concerned. Because Of his
position as chairman of the Finance
Committee, and its attendant duties OF
plotting Administration measures
through the recalcitrant Sixty-seyenth
Congress, McCumber has been held IN
Washington for weeks past, while Fra
2ier has had clear field for the ad-
vancemept of his cause in direct con.
tact with the voters.
Official Interest Keen
It would be difficult to overesti-
mate the interest which official Wash
ington, from President Harding down,
feels in today's contest in North Da-
kota.
McCumber has been one Of the chief
trainers and the boss pilot of the
pending Republican tariff bill, which
Imposes the highest rates since the
Payne Aldrich bill. He has been ope
of the principal trainers and the boss
pilot Of the soldier bonus bill which
bears his name.
A defeat for McCNnlber today
would be interpreted By many politi-
cal observers in Washington as indi-
eating the farmers dissatisfaction
with the pending high tariff bill. A
victory for McCumbei' would be in
terpreted by the same observers ns
meaning agricultural approval Of the
measure.
The bonus does not enter Into the
controversy to so great degree, be-
cause all sides In North Dakota have
been warm to the cause Of the bonus.
Nomination Means EIectloE
Nomination in North Dakota this
wear is generally accounted by politi-
cal leaders here as equivalent to cleo
ton, although the Democrats are re-
ported to have a strong candidate ip
the person Of ]. 4. O'Connor. q Yale
graduate and shrewd politician.

Mr.. Edison says that he believes the
wireless telephone will have pro-
found influence upon American politi-
cal campaigns. Future presidential
candidates will not journey about the
country but will speak to millions by
wireless from their headquarters. L
think the small orators will be driven
out of business" Mr.. Edison remark
ed
Question on Light Asked
Inasmuch as sound and light are
both derived from etheric waves dit
fering only in frequency, Mr.. Benson
asked Edison if it were not conceiv-
able that the radio might yet carry
grand opera to prairie firesides where
it could both be seen and heard.
1T is conceivable" he replied, "but
there is nothing in scientific knowl-
edge as it now stands to indicate that
it will ever be done. There are 1885,
000,0 nerves that lead from the eve
to the brain. If | could string 1885,
000,00 wires from here to New
York." 1--WE were talking in Edison's
laboratory in Orange, N. j., remem-
ber), eve might be able to see New
York from here"
The general public" says Mr.. Ben
son always seem to sense a great in
vention"
When Edison invented the incades-
cent electric light, public interest in it
was so great that the Pennsylvania
Railroad ran excursion trains to Men
10 Park. People flocked to see Edi-
sons first elevtric engine. President
Hayes sat up until 1880 in the morn
ing to hear Edison's first phonogTdph
say, Mary had little lamb" and,
"There was little girl who had lit
lie curl, etc
BroadcaSting Started
The same instinct is now directing
public attention to the radio-tele-
phone The broadcasting of President
Farding's speech at Arlington, in No
vember, 1921, was the starting-point,
The people of the Middle West were
the first to sence the importance of
the new device. A Detroit newspaper
began broadcasting in January.
A month later New York City awoke
with start. Two afternoon news
papers began printing daily radio
pages and weekly radio magazine sec
tions. Department stores installed ra-
dio-phone departments and sold in
struments while radio music rang
through the store. Manufacturers Of
instruments were swamped with or
ders. Half dozen big cities east of
he Mississippi River were broadcast
ing musical programs and speeches
every night
Unless the public instinct, which has
been right heretofore. is wrong this
ime. the radio-phone is destined to
make a big place for itself

McCumpers defeat in today's pri-

have sifted into the capital that this

unsuccessful effort The league has

clean one between McCumber and
Frazier, with MacHarg not figuring

than that he may pick up votes that
might otherwise go to 4MoCumber. The
contest between Frazier and Nc

EDISON TELLS OF EARLY DAYS
or THE. RADIO-PHONE;; TOOK
OUT PATENT ON WIRELESS

The radio telephone is one of tn,
most spectacular of modern inven
tions
Nothing about the radio phone
however, is more marvellous than the
story of its beginning and its develop
ment.
The chain of events that produced
the radio-phone began with the dis
covery by Thomas A. Edison of thin
white streak on an electric light globe.
That was back in 1888. Allan l.. Ben
son tells the story in the July number
Of Hearsts International Magazine.
While Thomas A. Edison's name is
not popularly associated with radio
developments, Mr.. Benson rather sus-
pected that the wizard of Menlo Park
probably had something to do with
the wireless marvel at some period in
its history. He, therefore, proceeded
to get the facts.
Edison Effect Seen
1T was in 1881 said Edison, while
We We're talking in his laboratory at
Orange, N. ]. that observed what
scientists afterwards designated as
the Edison effect upon which the
radiophone is based. An effect is a
term applied by physicists to a new
phenomenon that cannot be explained
by existing theories. While working
on my carbon incadescent lamp, 1 OBJ
served that each bulb, after it had
burned for some time, was blackened
inside except for a thread-like streak
opposite one leg of the filament
The streak of clear glass interested
me because l could not understand it.
SO far as knew there was no reason
why is should be there AS / studied it, !
observed that the streak was always !
nearest to the leg of the filament that
was connected with the positive side |
of the circuit. 1t was as if this leg /
We're casting a shadow. I finally de-
duced that the negative leg of the /
filament was throwing off particles
OF carbon that blackened all of the in
terror of the bulb except the thin line
on the opposite side which was shield
ed by the other leg of the filament."
Took Out Patent
Edison took out a patent for
wireless telegraph in 1881. A number
If years before that he had taken out
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1922-06-27

patent on an electric valve without
now in use would work. In his patent
application, filed more than thirty
years ago, Edison declared:
Il have discovered that if sufficient
elevation be obtainable to overcome
the curvature of the earths surface
and to reduce to the minimum the
earth's absorption, electric telegraph
ing or signalling between distant
points can be carried on by induction
without the use of wires connecting
such distant points. This discovery is
especially applicable to telegraphing
across bodies of water, thus avoiding
the use of submarine cables, or for
communicating between vessels at sea,
or between vessels at sea and points
on land; but it is also applicable to
electric communication between dis
tant points on land"
Being busy with the development OF
lighting, Mr.. Edison sold
his wireless patents to Marconi.
Radio Phone Built Up
1t would be as difficult to say who
invented the radio-phone now in
popular use as it would be to say who !
invented the automobile.
1T was built up said Edison.
Lee DeForest probably had more to |
10 than did any other one man with
he development of wireless telephony.

NEW YORK, July 17.-America has
won many notable international victor
les, but none were more pleasing than
the recent sweep of the British open
golf championship.
When the American team finishe ed
with first place, tie for second and
third place in the world s greatest golf
classic, it established world supremacy,
for the year at least, in every major
sport.
The United States, by virtue of that
great achievement, now leads the world
on the water, ON the track and field,
the polo field, the golf course, the ten
mis- court and the ring.
Little more remains.
Walter Hagen s victory in the Brit
ish open was the first for home bred
American and pure product of the
American school of golf
British experts attributed the Ameri-
can sweep to the supremacy of the
American putting game.
Hagen placed bad luck as being re-
sponsible for the downfall OF the
British stars.
Which makes Hagen also champion
diplomat.
To get real insight on the British
view of the American triumph, just
imagine a team of English ball players
coming to America and making clean
sweep in a world s series.
