WET am American Vessel
and M0P im Police Force

Washington, July 29.-Assigning
radio calls is something of a trick
and, with the constant increase of sta
tons, it is in the way Of becoming an
art. In this country we have but three
initial letter calls for about 5000 Gift
cial and commercial stations, which
makes the designation of appropriate
calls almost impossible. Having only
the letters n, X and w to start a
word with, even champion word makers
who spell thousands of words out of
trade names, would be stumped IN the
position of chief radio inspector of
the department of commerce.
In some instances he has done pretty
well. All calls starting with n are
naval. which is very appropriate, and
the army calls commence with W,
which is somewhat significant as re
ferring to the wal department. The
rest of the w calls. he heedlessly as
signed to the eastern part of the
United States, leaving X for the west
coast. The definite geographical call
VIVA (W. Va went TO a city in
Alaska: while to a naval station at
Savannah. Ga, he gave the letters
NEV New which would have suited
q station in Carson City far better.
GIN for Great Britain
When the inspector got down 10 spe-
aific stations, however, he did far
better: what could be more suitable
than the call assigned to the Detroit
police department, KOP-unmistak-
able, In view of the recent revela-
tons by Adolphus Busch, some of the
shipping boards calls are quite ap-
propriate. The craft known as the
West Gotomska carries the signifi-
cant call WET, while the Rio Grande

Chamblee has the same signal but
spells it KEGG. while the West Hart
land makes it plural. KEGS. Speak
ing liquor-ishly, Great Britain got a
gem Of a call in the anti-prohibition
signal, GIN: and also, since she has
V with several other letters, uses the
call VOP-significant of a very fine
brand in the old days. Russia. with
the letter X, of course has RUN and

wrong.
Madagascar Gets FLU
One southern Pacific passenger ship
bears the title of a famous southern
fraternity, xxx, and an Italian con-
temporary goes it one better with the
well known call, IWW. Japan got one
appropriate signal and one which is far
from suitable; the first is the station
JAP, and the other is labeled JEW.
A French radio station carries the des-
ignation FUN and a British sub, Polly
Anna. the title GLAD. Another Eng
lish sub bears the name of GABY,
formerly of France. FAN aptly de-
notes one French operator, and an I'M
fortunate Madagascar station got FLU.
Some American naval vessels have
calls which spell the names of their
sweethearts. NAN and MEL. while
another ship has the sentimental call
KISS. Radio broadcasters have a per-
feet right to kick TO be assigned such
calls as WEAK and WEEP, yet two
suffer under those titles despite good
service. showing the failings of the
radio inspector who made another mis-
take when he gave the significant call

John Wanamaker, Gimbel Brothers or

fail to identify their businesses.

Washington. July 29.-The days of
naval heroes are numbered; no more
will there be a call for volunteers 10

did Hobson at Santiago harbor, for the
call will be for radio operators. In

will such marine as the
allied attack on Heligoland be under

hazardous and almost hopeless tasks
will be left to radio-controlled vessels,
without personnel aboard.
A year ago, the battleship Iowa. a
relic of the Spanish war, but controlled
and unanswered by modern radio from
the Ohio over five miles away. was
bombed by an aerial fleet of planes,
which registered some hits. Nearly
everyone was excited about the pro-
spective conquest of the sea by air
forces, especially when q little later
aerial bombs demonstrated that Ger
man war craft could actually be sunk;
but no one was particularly elated over
the performance of the gigantic Iowa,
which was herself the real marvel of
that historical occasion. For the first
time in history. practical demonstration
of remote control by radio was seen.
John Hays Hammond. Jr., invented and
perfected the radio control of a small
craft before the war, but most wit
nesses foresaw only a new mechanical
or electrical toy. His invention applied

Dear Sirs:
We have been very much interested
the last few nights listening in on your
splendid broadcasted concerts. espe-
cially those of July Is and 16, when
your voice and the music came in very
distinctly. We heard your conversation

you were telling Bill about your outfit
going haywire on Thursday night.
! might say our receiving set is a
simple regeneratiye one, using only de-
tector valve with no amplification
We have also had Seattle. Portland
Everett and Vancouver. b. c., but your
voice seems to come in much clearer
than any. Last night. we enjoyed
your lecture a good deal and are glad
to know the agricultural outlook il
Montana is so promising this year.
Just thought we would drop these
few lines to express our appreciation
and we hope to be able TO listen in for
you very night. Give us a call some
night. about 10. our time. We are
situated about 300 miles north of Van
couver, near the northern end of Van.

TEN NEW FOX TR0T
NUMBERS ON VICTOR
AUGUST DANCE LIST
Well Known Orchestras Con-
tribute Midsummer
Melodies.

Ten new fox trot numbers. a regu-
Ilation waltz and a medley waltz are
tho Victor contribution to the midsum-
mer lance program for August.
The E~irginians monopoiize things on
two complete records all their very OWL
in August. Lonesome Mamma" is a
fine. horsPy blues" record with a de
l%ightful. lazy rhythm. Whether a
Memphis, Egypt. mummy or a Mem
phis. Tenn. flat-boat stevedore. Mem
phis Blues' on the reverse of this rec
ord would certainly start the feet
moving.
Ross German. director of the Nlr-
g%nIans, plays three separate instru-
ments during one of the numbers this
organization plays for its second rec
ord in Augustine sa%xophones and a
clarinet. He does this in Nobody
Lied" an easy. slow. somewhat gro
teSque number. On the other side is
Yankee Doodle Blues somewhat OF
a snappy melody for a blues record
with snatches of we'll known airs, bugic
notes and other decorations.
Moon River" is a good name for a
waltz. Wherever it may be, the waltz
about Moon River" Green Brothers
Marimba orchestra plays on an August
record is equally well named. It is
full Of soft moonlight effects. with a
subtle counter play of melody through
out the record. Sharing this record
Hackel-R erge orchestra plays a med
ley waltz-"Iove Sends a Little Gift
Of Roses'-iutroducing When Eyes
Meet Eyes" It has full, rich har-
monies. easily waltzed to.
One Of the best parts about modern
dancing is it's ease. All Star Trio and
Their Orchestra and Club Royal Or
chestra share a record between them
with two very good and very easy fox
trots. Soothing" by the former or
ganization. is in moderate tempo, with
strong accents. Night" by Club
Royal orchestra has modern h%armonies,
bitter-sweet. like grapefruit. These
two dances are simple in structure,
with no trick rhythms.
II wouldn't seem right TO embark
upon August without a couple of new
Whiteman dances. There are, there
fore. two on q single record. one by the
composer who wrote Mon Homme'
tMy Nam. It's called ITS Up to
You" though originally entitled some
thing French. 1t is lively, almost like
a French sappers' march. played with
superb finish. Meath the South Sea
Moon has also the characteristic
Whiteman dash, completing a very sat
lsfactory record.
Every state has equal rights as to
its way Of dancing the fox trot. Just
70 give some idea Of the variance of
these ways, hear Club Royal orchestra
play ~"Syncopate," n medley fox trot.
and then turn it over to see what the
Benson orchestra of Chicago does with
Little Thoughts The first has n
moderat tempo. but short. snappy ac-
cents. with some suspicious hints of
jazz. There's no doubt about Little
Thoughts 1t is in steady. fine tempo
throughout, with a good. resonant bass.
entirely devoid of any vinegary effects.

A Friend" of kDYS

Surprising you had been bedridden
for the last seven and a half months.
flat on your back for most Of that
time. Wouldn't the time drag. though,
and wouldn't you have wondered a good
many times whether living like that
was worth the while? Wouldn't you
have almost shouted for glee il some
one had come into your room every
night and played you just loads of mu-
sic-instrumental, vocal, classics and
jazz.
That is what radio stations of the
northwest have done for n poor bed
ridden boy over in Idaho. kDYS, The
Tribune broadcasting station. has been
coming in the best of the lot for him,
according to two letters which he has
written.
1t is a very wonderful thing to be
able to broadcast music to thousands
of distant receiving sets as a matter
of ordinary entertainment. But it is
far more wonderful to reach unfortu-
nate folk like this sick lad who are alb
solutely without other means of re-
