To Discontinue Radio Station.


The naval radio station at Otter
Cliffs, near Bar Harbor, hitherto the
most important station on the At
lantic coast because of its position as
relay point through which trans
Atlantic messages were transmitted,
will be discontinued except as a
coastal and compass station on April
80.
Most of the work formerly done
by the Otter Cliffs station will be
transferred to a new naval building
in Washington. 1t was pointed out
that this would save the cost of
maintaining the direct cable between
Bar Harbor and Washington, by
mated at $4,000 a year, and would
also make unnecessary the replace
ment of buildings at otter Cliffs de-
stroyed last winter by fire at an esti-
mated loss of $4,000.
The radio receiving apparatus at
Otter Cliffs is said to be the most
powerful on the Atlantic coast 1t
will not be removed, but will be
superseded by new receiving and
sending sets in the Washington sta
tion The discontinuance of the
trans-oceanic service at Otter Cliffs
will cut down the personnel there
to about fifteen men.
The Bar Harbor board of trade
got busy at once, taking the matter
UP with the government in the hope
of retaining the station at it's present
force of sixty men.
