WASHIs ION. May 10 - German

They believe the war and It's aftermath
which deprived Germany Of her mer-
chant feet served to make Germany po-
tential master Of the commercial oceans,
by forcing her to build new balanced
fleet to replace the ships taken by the
allied nations.
That is the view Of the present Ger
man attitude toward world shipping
gained by Edward P. Farley sales man
ager of the shipping board, as the re-
suit Of first hand study of conditions In
Germany and present activities In Ger
man ports. Mr.. Farley's conclusions are
embodied in report made to Chairman
Lasker. which include salso views he
formed while aboard of the shipping sit
uation In Great Britain
Not a shipyard IN Germany Is idle, Mr..
Farley asserted. and the Germans were
building few vessels for foreign account,
simply because the yards cannot take
care Of the demand for German flag ships.
The vessels being constructed and those
already at sea, he asserted, We're built
especially TO fit the trade In which they
were engaged and as a result the rapid
~ increasing German merchant fleet Is
the best balanced in the world. Both
the American and British fleets, he ex-
planned. include many war built vessels
now more or less untitled for certain
trade routes.

GIGANTIC WIRELESS STATION WILL LINK
 UP BRITISH EMPIRE
Powerful Enough to Main tain Direct Communica- ton Between British Isles
 and the Antipodes

The last great link in the British scheme of a worldwide chain of All Red" wireless stations giving instan- taneous communication with all parts of the empire Is to be erected at Bourne, In the county of Lincoln. England. This gigantic station will be the second largest in the world and will be capable of talking direct to Australia, India, South Africa ana Canada. The report regarding the authorization of this station says:
 while 1t will not equal in actual size the great new French station which was opened this week at Saint Assise (near the forest of Fontaine- bleau). the varying functions of the respective stations have to be borne in mind, the one being for general and commercial purposes, the other primarily for official purposes.
 'eThere will be, at the English sta tion, eight steel maSts. each 800 feet high (more than twice the height of St. PaUls1. These masts are used for supporting the antenna and con- stitute tn most costly item of a wire less station. Because of the fact that steel is conductor, and therefore liable to cause loss of electrical en- tIEyt tilt IhdHAS VIII O6 AuSuiaNtQ III sections and will stand on an insu- lated base. They will be guyed to concrete anchorages and will be de- signed to take a horizontal pull of 10 tons at the top and wind load )f GO pounds per square foot. The masts will be arranged in the form Of q square. in the center of which the transmitting station will be situ- ated.
 "The buildings will include an op- erating room, a boiler room, an en- zine room and a high frequency room, together with workshops and an emergency operating room. The apparatus will consist of thermionic valve sets capable of transmitting continuously at 90 words a minute for reception in Poona, Johannes burg or Perth, as the case may bA.
 The new receiving station at BAn- bury, which will represent the other terminal of the imperial chain. will be built on similar lines to the sta ton already in existence there in con- nection with the Leafield-Abu Zabal 6EgypD link of the chain. Tn gene eral, 1t will comprise a central pIo 250 by 50 yards, for the opera in q building, and two other plot= 2a0 | yards square, on either side of the | operating building, and about K5o yards removed from 1t, on each side 1 of which will be erected a mast 30O feet high"

A GORILLA,s CHARGE

Cari E. Akeley. in the Worlds Work, describes as follows the charge of female gorilla:
 got a fair sight of an old black fe- male and it looked as though if I killed her dead the bushes she was in would hold her. She was 50 feet away up the steep slope. I fired and she came exactly as the other one had-the slope was so steep it was practically a falkland straight at me. I tried to dodge but could not, as the recoil of the gun had caused me to lose my balance bit. and could not recover in time. I threw myself flat, face down, just in time and she passed over me. It was so steep and the mass of green stuff go- Ing with hor so softened things that I merely felt her--there was no per- ceptible shock, but when I got up had great welt on the top of my head which she had caused. As partially rose there seemed to be an avalanche of gorillas-there was a big ball of black fur squealing mad ly rolling past--actually- touching me in the wake of the old one. I took shot at 1t as it went over. and by the time I had recovered and reload eu two others tnat were cioSe Dy nhd disappeared.
 charge ever made by a gorilla against man. I think 1t was pushed home with more abandon than any other on record. I am almost certain of these two statements, the particular reason for my certainty being that the gorilla, when she charged. or. more correctly speaking. fell down the hill. was dead and she couldn't have any of the hesitations which believe prevent such charges by live gorillas. The others followed her not in anger but in fear and because they accepted her lead without re- ! alizing that it was involuntary. If their charge had been aimed at me they had plenty of time to knock me off the mountain side before could get up and shoot again and the ne.

there Is a constant attraction of the electrons from the hot filament (where they are being set free) to the plate surface. A positive charge on the grid assists the flow toward the plate while a negative charge retards 1t, but nevertheless the stream of electrons Is always nov ing toward the plate and away from their source. the filament.
 Works Like steam Engine
 In the original model of the recip- rocating steam engine the steam was turned on by the engineer moving Q two-way valve. allowing the steam to go first Into one end and then the other of the cylinder, making the piston move back ana forth to turn the flywheel. Later the ingenious idea of making the engine move the valve lever con trolling the steam flow to the cyl inder was adopted with the result that the machine ran of it's own ac- cord without the external" effort of tho operator in moving the lever.
 The hree-electrode vacuum tube can be made to do the same thing by proper coupling of the output or plate circuit with that of the grid of input side. When th4 tickler (which makes such coupling) is not coupled closely enough with the inspect inductance the result is sim liar to that In a steam engine which cannot produce enough power 10 open and close It's own valves. A closer coupling gives stronger im- pulses to the grid with the result that oscillations start. These may be audible or not. depending upon the constants of the circuit, but provided the circuit resistance Is in- sufficient to damp them out they will continue as long as the fila ment is releasing electrons.

A GREAT INVENTORS BoYHooD


 From From Immigrant to Inventor
 What I Brought to America" by
 Michael Pupin, in Scribner's.
 My teacher In the village school never succeeded in making upon my mind that profound impression which was made upon it by the men at the neighborhood gatherings. They were men who had gone out into the world and had taken an active part in the struggles of the world. Reading. writing and arithmetic appeared to me like instruments of torture which the teacher, who, in my opinion at that time, knew nothing of the world, had invented in order to interfere as much as possible with my freedom, particularly when had an important engagement with my chums and playmates. But my mother soon con- vinced me that I was wrong. She could neither read nor write, and she told me that she always felt that she was blind, in spite of the clear vision of her eyes. So blind. indeed, that, as she expressed it, she did not dare venture into the world much beyond the confines of my native village. This is as far as I remember now the mode of reasoning which she would address to me: My boy, if you wish to go out into the world about Wnich you heard so much at the neighbor- hood gatherings, you must provide yourself with another pair of eyes; the eyes of reading and writing. There is so much wonderful knowl- edge and learning in the world which you cannot get unless you can read and write. Knowledge is the gold@ ladder over which we climb to heaven; Knowledge Is the light which Eliminates our path through this life and leads to a future life of ever lasting glory" She was a very pious woman. and had a rare knowledge of both the Old and the New Testament. The Psalms were her favorite recita- tions. She also knew the lives of saints. St. Sava was her favorite saint. She was the first to make me understand the story of the life of this wonderful Serb.

No lightning Danger
 From Radio Aerials,
 Says Prof. Steinmetz

Dr. Charles P. Steanmetz, who aS an authority on high-powsr electrical phenomena, was asked the following question during his visit to the Radio congress His reply to the inquiry fol- lows:
 O. Dr. steinmetz, many of us have amateur radio receiving sets in our homes. We have heard ruraors that tho underwriters consider that there is a fire hazard because of the an tsnna and the ground connections and that certain restrictions may be placed on amateur installations. We would like to have your opinion at to the real haxbard involved
 A There Is no hazard in the anna teur radio receiving station It tn- wolves no fire risk nor to life. It Is merely & harmless toy, but is & great deal more than a toy. It Is one of the most valuable develop ments of the last years owing to its instructive and educational value and the recreation and pleasure which tt suppiies-
 It would, therefore, hs xsxy regret able if by . misguided public opfn- ion obstructions were placed in the way of the fullest and freest C svelop- ment of the amateur radio station. With regard to the possible lightning q risk from the grounded antenna: First, the lightning risk in 6 city Is very remote in any case, and, sec ond, the grounded antenna rather acts like a lightning rod and exercises g protective action against lightning Any danger from the radio power received by the amateur station ob- viously ridiculous when consider ing that the energy of single pound of coal would be more than enough to operate the radio receiving sta ton continuously for over a thousand years. Certainly this Is not enough energy to do harm
