come responsible for interstate com
mercial radio traffic rates if such
operation develops. The Shipping
Board, like the Navy, employs radio
for communicat ton with it's vessels.
In fact, nearly all the Federal bu-
reauS and offices are interested in
radio communications and develop
mentS.
In the regulation of government
radio activities the authority of each
department and bureau is considered
but the ultimate authority would, if
necessary, be exercised by the Presi-
dent Mutual cooperation between
the departments is expected to aid
successful operation of the govern
ment-owned systems, their use being
extended to non-radio departments
when possible.
Although a central control is not
believed feasible, the advisory COM
mittee recommends that a permanent
interdeparImental committee be sane
toned to coordinate and regulate
government systems and traffic under
the direction of the President.
This intergovernmental body would
act to prevent interference, assign
frequencies, determine character of
broadcast material and handle radio

efficiency. Priority of service is
planned for distress calls or messages
pertaining to the safety of life and
property in marine and aerial naVi-
cation. The present advisory COM
mittee functions under the Secretary
of Commerce, but it is understood
that with presidential approval its
operation and value might be ex-
tended
In SO far as radio communication is
an element of national defense, its
operations are under the control of
the War and Navy Departments, and
the recommendation of the joint
Army and Navy board, made in 1928,
are approved This action provided
that the Navy's interests in radio
were paramount at sea with ships
and overseas to insular possessions,
as well as along the coasts. The Army
activities cover principally radio COM
munications between its units in this
country and its possessions and it's
forces afield outside the continental
limits of the country.

RADIO QUERIES

Radio Editor:
Can you or some radio fan tell me
what station | heard at O'Clock Fri
day night, on about go meters, which
broadcast d speech and two cornet
solos: The call lettevo sounded like
WCAS. 1t was in Ohio, 1 think. 1t
was not WEAO.-W. r. B.
Station WCAS is in Minneapolis,
Mlnn. You may have heard WCAH
In Columbus, Ohio. 1t is a 100-watt
station, but transmits on wave
band of 2S6 meters.
Radio Editor:
i have noticed in your radio query
column lately several articles on the
code interference on various waves
Some of the articles have referred to
the amateur as being responsible for
this code interference and others to
Government stations.
No doubt there are several thou
sand that know exactly where this
actually does originate, while there
are several thousand that guess.
L will try to clear some of this up
for some of the thousands that guess.
In the last 60 days I have checked
on this code very close and will say
there have been but two amateurs that
have caused this trouble from their
harmonics, and they were very bad.
but this was bad seven nights be-
tween 7:05 and not later than SIT
pm.
In the past so days the interfer-
ence from Government station har-
monies has been the worst I have ever
experienced in the many years l have
been an operator. although there
never has been an evening that I
could not satisfy myself with many
waves where the harmonics had little
or no effect. NAA, NAL and MAI are
the prize harmonic stations in this
section. MAI will pound through on
"a high-power receiver; as bad as local
NAL, l suppose, is the one that causes
the most trouble locally on smaller
sets, and NAA next in turn.
These are all high-power tube
| transmitters and their tone will
| change, depending upon the harmonic
you hop aboard.
On several evenings this interfer
ence has been caused by testing and
not code, which was no doubt very
| necessary.
No one knows of this trou-
BILE better than the Government and
l, for one, know they are working
| hard to clear the air up and are
! experimenting at all times to better
| conditions.
B. c. L-Please take notice old
3XZ and 3BAX have had no license
and have not transmitted for over
| two years. So kindly lay off my
phone; stop making threats to re-
| port me, as some very insulting re-
marks over the phone have got my
goat. B. c. L., be a little patient
with Uncle Sam and be content, as his
work is far more important than our
pleasure.-EX 3XZ, 3BAx.
