has been competing against seventeen

station at Riverhead where messages
from all the big stations of Europe are

taken out of the ether and automatically
placed on the wire of the British cir
cult. This brings 1t to the receiving

that almost all would name the huge

from President Harding so far that
the radio waves from east and west
met on the other side of the globe.

Ideas OF a Radio Center.

The picture most people form in their
minds OF a great wireless station en-
gagged In International communication
work has vividly In the foreground a
big group of frantic operators literally
whipping messages into the ether under
the very shadow of the towering an
tenna. with high frequency waves throb-
bing through its wires.
Nothing could be more picturesque
or less true. There are no operators at
Rocky Point. Tuckerton. New Bruns-
wick. Marion or Riverhead. They are
all at 81 Broad street, and the instru-
fnents that control the tremend Gus power
of the stations and the 1850 to 1900
meter wave lengths they emit are sim
ply modified typewriters. And, most as
tonishing OF all, the great roads OF
ethereal communication dwindle at eacn
end to bits of paper tape not half an
inch wide.
So far has automatism been carried
that bit Of perforated tape In Broad
street sends a message to Europe with
out the aid OF human hands. And at the
other end another bit of tape. likewise
without prompting by men. takes the
message out of the air and visualizes
It for the operator in wavering line
Of blue ink.

Bie Progress In Two Years.

Ine story OF the u1NtiOpHlcHl anu
simplification Of international radio
communication to this stage is the story
OF the Radio CORPORATION itself. The
comraay was formed two years ago ut
the suggestion of the United States
Government to establish q radio net
work which would place this country
abreast OF Great Britain and France,
with their many cables and telegraph
tines, in matters of international com
gnunication.
There arc, OF course, other depart
Tnents. but the big feature of 81 Broad
street Is the operating room on the Sec
cul floor. Here are nine big tables that
arc the heart of the communication SER
vice. At each table arc. places for five
m,n. three on one side. two on the other
Sometimes during the rush hours all
these places are occupied at other times
cne operator on each side Is sufficient.
In front of the men on one side of the
table are placed the messages just writ
ten by business houses or individuals In
New York directed to people in Euro
pean countries to which the table Is
operating. The sending operator tyres
the message on an ordinary typewriter
keyboard but instead of type bars i'm
printing their characters on paper a
series of dots is punched In narrow
tape. The dots actually are the con. IL
mental code: two dots, one above the
other on the tape indicating a dot and
two. one above and the other below and
to the right, n dash. There Is a slight
space on the tape between each letter.
The tape, moving always at uniform
speed across the perforating machine.
passes on to a small wheatstone trans
mitter. This machine consists OF ap-
paratis by which two steel fingers.
