Electric Wires Dangerous.

Radio antennae installed near high
voltage lines have brought sorrow
into number of American homes.
During a recent storm in Pittsburgh a
woman was killed when she came in
contact with a radio aerial which had
fallen across a high tension wire. It
Is reported that twelve radio fol-
lowers, mostly boys, met death dur
Ing 1922 as a result Of touching ex-
posed live wires while installing their
radio antennac.
The antennae should not be in

them coming in contact with electric

Secret Order of Radio Men.
Initiation of candidates into the
Royal Order Of the Wouff-H Hong" will
be one of the principal features on
the last evening might of mystery"
at the second national American
Radio Relay League convention In Chi
cago from September IL to Is, inclusive.
The order of the mysterious "Wouff
Hong" has become an institution in
amateur radio and Its membership is
spreading rapidly oyer the entire
country wherever there are radio men.
The word Is believed to have origi-
mated with the "Old Man." for years
contributor to the amateur maya
zine QST. but whose real identity
and general status in amateur radio
has never been revealed.
One story Is that the "Wouff- Hong"
Ia an instrument used to eliminate
interference by annihilation of those
who are overzealous in their use Of
the ether. What is reputed' to be an
exact replica OF this deadly" weapon.
somewhat resembling in it's construc-
tion an Indian tomahawk, actually
exists.
AS secret order the "wouff- Hong"
had its beginning at an amateur con-
vention In Flint. Mich. at which time
several hundred candidates were in
itiated. Interest developed to such an
extent that another mystic meeting
was staged at an Ohio convention
Through the traffic system of the
American Radio Relay League the
fame of the order has been spread far
and wide. with the result that a con-
stitution and ritual may be adopted
formally in Chicago and the "Wouff-
Hong" will hold henceforth "a unique
place in amateur radio affairs.
Latest developments in amateur and
broadcast reception and transmission
Will be covered by speakers of ma
tional reputation. according to +. II.

COMMUNICATED
"Just One Point on zoning..

To the Editor of The Herald: Everyone who heard the talk of T'laviel Shurtleff, secretary of the Ma 1 tional Zoning commission last night | in the council chambers could hard | ly have gone away without clear insight and a picture of what Use Zoning Ordinance should and would do for New Britain. His exposition of the procedure to obtain this law and the cost involved was most con- else and clear.
 It seems to the writer that only three districts are necessary at this stage of the city's development and population namely:
 A.-Residential.
 B.-Commercial.
 C.-Unrestricted.
 These three great divisions or zones, when it becomes time to allo- cate them on the map, section of one here and section Of one there, will be the commissions greatest task. New Britain has the advantage in profiting by the mistakes of New Haven who unwisely drew up their plan without allowing proper expan- sion for industry in certain sections. There was apparently lack of CO., operation and now the New Haven Coming Ordinance is at the mercy of a well organized manufacturing group who are out to kill it, and they are hurting themselves by doing so.
 If manufacturing expansion is inn peded it will most certainly choke the city's growth. On the other hand, if the direction of manufacturing ex- pansion and commercial growth is not regulated. it will most certainly choke the growth of residential sec tions and thereby cause many thou- sands of employees to hesitate before building a home which is not safe from the commercial garage and the foundry stacks. Is not the employe with his own little home and yard worth in dollars and cents great deal more than the man who rents few rooms and dares not raise a family because he has not the space? He is a transient. Sociologically he has little value.
 Zoning should improve the gem eral welfare, health, sanitation, re- lieve congestion and brings about less partisanship.
 It has been proven in other cities that real estate values are safeguard ed and that assessed valuations in the aggregate have greatly increased. These are important results but are not as peculiar to New Britain as the sociological one on account of our large industrial population. Small homes are what we need in city of this size instead of the multi-fam- fly tenement.
 May I repeat the slogan used in Philadelphia. Zone your own home" before you own your own home"
 Yours truly,
 EARLE K. BISHOP,

TRAMpLING ON THE GRAVE

Warren Gamaliel Harding is dead.
 How dead he is to some people may be realized by the attitude Of ] Henry Rorahack, dictator of republi. can state politics and frequently re- ferred to by the more picturesque but less euphonious term boss"
 According to a news despatch print. cd in the Herald yesterday, Roraback, speaking at a gathering Of women re- publicans in Hartford, came out bluntly against Incorporating in the republican party platform of 1924 any proposals whatsoever calling for in- torference in foreign affairs. He said he didn't care whether such pro- posai was called the League of Ma tions, the World Court or any other name.' The foregoing lines appear ing in quotation marks are taken from the despatch referred 10.
 Warren Gamaliel Harding. recog- nized as one of the most sincere Of a long line of United States presidents, lies sleeping under the sod Of Ohio. Only few short days ago, it seems, the world bowed it's head in sorrow as it learned that he had departed this life. His advocacy Of a World Court was one Of the truly brilliant gems in the party crown. It was hailed as a possible solution Of the ills that beset the age and its author became en- shrined in the hearts Of all Of us be- cause it showed that he had a will 10 snatch tbc sword from tho hand Of Mars. a sincere hope that by his plan universal peace might become an actuaiity instead Of a dream.
 Rorabsck has no time for dreams His is the mind of the msterialist, the practical politician. For all he cares, Europe can hang itself even if by do- ing so it loops the hemp around the necks Of other nations.
 Warren Gsmaliel Harding Is dead. But we didn't think that there was man living who was bold enough to trample on his grave. Y these re- publicans of Connecticut. who arc earnestly pressing on toward Inc goal Of peace. do not make ]. Henry Rora- back swallow his words and declare that he wss speaking for himself and not the party. they haze less backbone than they are credited with having.

oice to our noblest aspirations and ! hopes: but 1t must let our individual ! liberties alone. 8" There is nc

Laws should be made. are made. to prevent such action. Such laws should be enforced in the general movement to retain in men this right to life, freedom and happiness. Such laws should be changed, made more strict, more broad, from time to time as changes come to the manner of living of those whom the laws affect. Whether strict or liberal they should be enforced and they should be cap- able of enforcement because they are the laws generally recognized as nee essary for the community or state which adopts them.
 For the whole country there should be, in the form of the constitution of the United States, a document which contcmpates the widest latitude in the laws that shall be necessary for the different people all over the coun- try. the people themselves to be the judges of what laws are necessary for them under the conditions in which they live in that locality,

How much more is there to be feared the spirit Of pettiness and narrow mindedness in the constitution of the United ststes--the constitution which has succeeded, according to Dr. Butler. because as originally drawn il minded its own business.

, cion is usually if not always Justified
 Now that England and Italy have protested against Frances actions,
 and Italy at least says France must seek to occupy no more territory in the Ruhr. it is conjectured that Eng land is trying to force France to agree to an investigation of Germans capa- city to pay by commission which will do its work without restrictions, thus bringing the American into the discussion. No matter what move European nations will make they will be deemed to be inspired by the desire to force France to get the United States into the discussion.
 Everyone knows that England is more eager than is any other country to have the support of the United States, although all are after it. But the aid of the United States is offered to Enrope. not to any one nation of it. And the sort of aid we have of- fered is aid in peaceful negotiations, with an invitation from all the nations and friendliness on the part of all nations that would come only if the invitation were voluntarily given by all. At least this country is wise enough to see below the surface and refuse to be fooled by an invitation in which France may join reluctantly be- cause she has been forced to join in it.
 What this country desires to see is peace in Europe and stabilizing Of business. Certainly the United States would be benefited by such peace and open to us and her buyers would have means to pay, the result of European prosperity. The claims of hundreds of thousands of citizens of the United States would be paid These are some Of the practical benefits that peace would bring. But the United States is frank about what she wants She will not meddle or be enticed into Eur opcan affairs at the invitation of any one nation or any two: nor will she enter Europe to force stability there, much as the United States desires it,
 No matter what powerful influences in this country, if any there be. desire war those interests are not as strong as the great power of the American people. And the people will not have war.
