WIRELESS PHONE
REGULATION URGED
Secretary Hoover Empha-
sizes Need at Conference
of Radio Experts.

Addressing the conference of ex-
perts gathered at the Department of
Commerce today to suggest legisla-
tion for control of commercial radio,
Secretary Hoover said that the coun-
try is unanimous in it's desire for
regulation of th4 wireless telephone.
Il think it will be- agreed at the
outset" Secretary Hoover said. that
the use of the radio telephone for
communication between single indi-
viduals. as in the case of the ordinary
telephone, is perfectly hopeless no
tion.
obviously. if 100000 subscribers
are crying through the air for their
mates. they will never make a juno
ton; the ether will be filled with
frantic chaos. with no communication
of any kind possible. In other words.
the wireless telephone has one def
mite field and that is for spreading
OF certain predetermined material of
public interest from central stations.
This material must be limited to news
to education, to entertainment and
the communication Of such CONNER
large groups of the community at the
same time"
Problem Of Regulation.
The Secretary said it is, therefore,
primarily a question of broadca sting,
adding that some years ago Congress
authorized the Secretary of Commerce
to license radio sending stations and
to impose certain conditions in the
licenses designed to prevent interfer-
ence between stations. The whole
problem. Mr.. Hoover added. is one of
regulation. IL radio users are to OBJ
tain the maximum use of their instru-
vents. There is involved, however, the
;sk, - "a
over the air that there may be no
national regret that we have parted
with a great national asset into un-
controlled air.
A. H. Griswold. vice president of
the American Telephone and Tele-
graph Company, following Mr..
Hoovers speech said that control of
much of the radio apparatus in this
country is in the hands of five large
commercial telephone and telegraph
companies. He added. however, that
the corporations are banded together
not in restraint of trade, but to pro-
tect their patent rights. Approx
mately 125 experts and men connected
with the radio industry attended the
conference, including several from
Washington. DR.. S. W. Stratton, di-
rector Of the bureau of standards;
Maj. Gen. George o. SQuier, chief sig
nal ofiicier of the Army: Capt. Samuel
W. Bryant Of the Navy, Hiram Percy
Maxim, Senator Frank h. Kellogg and
W. A. Wheeler of the Department of
Agriculture. were a few of. the ex-
perts attending the conference.

the military forces which occupy Arc
tic. Natick. Pontiac and other mill
villages. AS q result thin picket lines
appeared at several places. But the
man and woman strikers patrolfing in
heavy snowstorm and the mills
showed no change from the in
activity of the past month or more.
Because Of the understanding that
both sides would make their position
on the proposed arbitration clear by
tomorrow, the mill arrangements were
said to have decided not to force the
issue by an attempt at reopehing
today.
Pawtucket, with several plants
operating in part, was as quiet as the
imperative Pawtuxet Valley mill
towns to the south. Pickets appeared
IN the snow there also. but beyond
the lines of the military forces, and
without developing any instances Of
solicitation Of working opeSetives
that called for attention by the
guards.
The immediate proposal for settle
