CHEAPER SENDING
 OF RADIO MESSAGES
Senator Marconi Predicts Low Cost in Future Use of Wireless

London. July 24---Another great step in the development of wireless telegraphic transmission has been realized, say Senator Marconi. who has returned to London after two months experimental cruise in his yacht "Electra." A system has been evolved by the Italian inventor whereby wireless messages are trans mitted with minimum of electrical power, and at very low cost.
 We have transmitted messages up . to a distance of 2,250 miles, not only with a very much smaller amount of power and energy, but faster and more cheaply than with the. ordinary system of ,. long distance wireless" said Senator Marconi. When the new system is adopted it will mean that a power station for long-dis- tance work can be erected at much less cost than at present. I have telegraphed on this system from Cape Verde Islands, off the African coast, to London. To send messages clearly and more rapidly over those 2,500 miles took less power than a message from London to Paris by the ordinary methods"
 Senator Marconi explained that these advantages were gained by the utilization of waves that have not be- fore been used. Given the necessary mechanical element, he said, mes- sages could be sent clearly seven times faster than the present rate, and that the public and the newspa- pers would ultimately have the ben- eft of much cheaper commercial charges. His opinion is that wireless is only in it's infancy, and that thel future has in store greater marvels than have been revealed in the past.
 Commenting on recent experiments conducted by American inventors looking to. privacy in wireless tele- phonic conversation, Senator Marconi said he was afraid such an achieve ment was still far off. T do not say that wireless telegraphy will ever be an absolutely private means of trans mission, but I will say that in future 1t will be possible to make it much more difficult for anyone to get mes sages not intended for them"
 Senator Marconi proposes to go on another experimental trip in few weeks time, and later to try the new system of long, distance wireless from the coast of the United States to Europe. -

The structure. according to the de- signs will be fashioned after the clas- sic Greek Doric order of architecture similar to the famous Parthenon, an exact replica of which stands in Gen. tennial park in Nashville. There is also to be quite a similarity between this memorial and the new Lincoln memorial in Washington, the archi- tect says.
 In the new building there will be a capitol annex and museum annex, connected by a memorial court be- tween the two buildings and open to the skies with an allegorical statue in bronze or marble gracing the center of the court, and tablets bearing the war records of Tennessee soldiers killed in the war upon the west wall of the court.
 There will be four stories to the structure, including the ground floor. the entire length to be 3s5 feet and the width 115 feet.

THINKS ARCTIC WASTES
 GOOD FLYING TERRAIN
Lieutenant Dietrichsen, Norwegian Aviator Declares Conditions Are
 Ideal for Flying in the North.

Bergen, July 24.-Giving his opin- ion regarding the Arctic as flying terrain, Lieutenant Dietrichsen is quoted as follows by the Aftenposten:
 "Once one has risen above the mountains, the mists vanish and weather conditions become extraor- dinarily even and free of wind pock- cts. The further north one proceeds the better becomes the possibilities of good and safe landing places among the vast fiat tracts of ice and snow fields"
 The lieutenant also expressed his firm conviction that the polar flight was only a matter of time.
 Lieutenant Districhsen is one of the airmen sent up to Spitzbergen by the Norwegian government in connection with relief measures for Amundsen.

GERMANS SHUN TRAINS.
Ruhr Residents Refuse to Ride on
 Vehicles Run By Frenchmen.

Essen, July 24.-Germans in the Ruhr, passively resisting the French. declined to ride on trains run by Frenchmen. Hence it soon became a question of stay at home, or find some other means of locomotion.
 They did the latter, and today the Ruhr is filled with people on rollers. Tens of thousands of laborers have bicycles, motorcycles, or a small coast CT propelled by gasoline motor to go to and from their work. Hun dreds of thousands of others are taken to their places of employment and back in motor trucks furnished by their employers.
 Efforts to grow cotton in New South Wales have been unsuccessful because of drought and insect pests.
