EXPENSIVE DEVISE SENDS
PICTURE BY RADIO

NEW YORK, Nov. S0-A portrait
of the President of the United States
was put on the air in London today
and 20 minutes later was reproduced
in New York.
IS As the finished picture was removed
from an ascilating cyclinder in the
offices of the Radio Corporation of
America, the juggling stylus which
had down it remained poised for
raoment. Then there was a buzz, the
stylus perked its head this way and
tat and, putting it's inky nose TO the
paper traced out panel in which it
embroidered these words from an old
Chinese proverbs
One picture is worth 10000 words
Again the stylus rested for a mo-
ment, and again it resumed dancing
upon that cylinder until as the hours
passed, it perfected the likeness of
Prenaier Standby Baldwin Secetary
Hughes, the Prince Of Wales, Queen
Mother Alexandria Owen d. Young
showed II. M. s, Reclamation aground
in the Tees river and the finish Of
the Oxford Cambridge relay races and
topped off the performance with an
artistic flouish by reprcdaeing muir
al from the royal academy
Says Device success
Radio corporation officials announ-
ced at the end of the demonstration
that the all-American invention for
radio transmission of photographs,
painting and printed messages was
"a complete success.
With but little refinement, said the
inventor, the process could be made
available Immediately for the over
seas Of news pictures, of secret BUSH
ness messages, of diplomatic cores
pondence and of Identification pho
tographs in police hunts for inter-
national criminals
Is American Invention.
The device through which it is ex-
pected all these things will become
matter Of routine radio transit be-
tween continents was developed by
O. H. Taylor, chief engineer Of the
Radio corporation; j. w w Alexan-
der consulting engineer, and r. H
Ranger, directing engineer.
Owen D Young, president Of the.
General Electric company, set the in
ventors working when he said, on the
occasion Of General James 6. Har-
boid's Inauguration as president Of
the Radio corporation n months ago
Radios big day viii come when
one ear glance at a picture in a Lon
den newspaper and say New York
newspaper are carrying the same pic
ture today"
Cost $50 to $40
To send one picture required about
20 minutes. Computing the cost on
the basis of the number Of words that
could be sent at toll rates during the
cost of transmission per picture at
$50 to $40.
The system of transmission is much
like that employed by the American
Telephone and Telegraph company
months ago when it sent photographs
from Cleveland to New York by land
wire. There is this difference, how
ever-the A. T. & T. process repro
duces pictuoe which parallels con-
tinous shaded lines, while the radio
pictures are made up of thousands of
dots, placed in parallels.

Stadiums Versus Saloons

During the just closed greater crowds attended

There be doubt that prohibition has contributed
greatly to the increased popularity of football and other
outdoor sports. Leisure time formerly spent by thou

Statistics Prove Beer Decrease

During 1924 according to the records of the United
States Department of Agriculture four million pounds of
hops consumed by brewers in the manufacture of
cereal beverages Ten years ago the breweres
nually consuming about orty6ve million pounds of hops
At that time the country importing considerably
larger quantities of hops than is being used for all
purposes according to government records This does
not bear the statement that there is beer
sumed than 1t may be argued that hops
used by home brewers instead of commercial brewers
But the government figures show that -four mil
lion pounds of hops exported during 1924 while
imports had declined to 761174, compared with imports
of about eleven million pounds year. before prohibition.
This is quite conclusive proof that compared with the
old days very little beer is being manufactured in this
country 1t only the alcohol fanatics who in the face
of both statistics and observation persist in the
argument that there is more drinking than ever.

Newspaper Prosperity of Bootleggers

From metropolitan newspapers one gains the impress
sion that nearly all bootleggers millionares. Dean
O'Banion, reported to be OF the most wealthy was
recently shot in Chicago gang He left estate
of only $l5000 according to apeon for letters of adj
minsration filed i'll the probate court Another boot
logger rated at several millions by the newspapers had
trouble the amount of his fine after he was SEN
fenced to the brdewell i'll Chicago Nc doubt many who
make business OF violating prohibition laws gain con-
siderable money but very few OF them accumulate great
fortunes such some newspapers describe the fruits
of OF crime. And whatever money is made in
this criminal business is worth the price that must
be paid later. The editors who decry crime in
their editorial columns should try influence the news
reporters their papers to tell the real truth about
criminals instead OF picurng them creatures of ease
luxury and fabulous wealth

Enforcement in Cook County

Cook county is going TO be dry and moral for the
four years. States Attorney Robert l. Grove de-
clared last night Every saloon and dsreputable joint
in the county is going be closed. It's the end for
liquor beer and vce."-Chicago Tribune Nov Is, 1924.
Ii States Attorney Grove the power given to him
by the Illinois prohibition act he can go long way
towards making good the above declaration. The
newspapers report that squads of investigators from the
states attorneys office have been touring the county
since the latest murder in the Chicago gang warfare.
This is in accordance with the law which provides that
it shall be the duty OF the states attorney evil
dence of violations of the Illinois prohibition act and
prosecute In quite a number of counties outside of
Cook states attorneys have successfully enforced pro
bon by employing special Investigators in accordance
with the provisions OF the Illinois prohibition act
The above expressed decision OF States Attorney
Grove to take active part in prohibition enforcement
by using his power under the law gather evidence,
instead OF merely prosecuting upon evidence secured
from other sources should prove be OF the
decisive moves against liquor lawessness since Mayor
Dever started his enforcement drive. But it will be
necessary for all enforcement agencies cooperate i'll
the use " the legal power they have put down law
essness. The federal forces have done much good work
with the men and facilities under their command.
District Attorney Olson and his assistants, State Di-
rector Owen Chief Field Officer Nursel and the federal
judges have reached high degree OF efficiency in
curing evidence prosecuting successfully and Furnishing
booeegers with jail sentences in addition to padlockng
lawless joints. Mayor Dever and Chief Collins
relentng in their firm determination to all the power
they have enforce the law. With aggressive action by
the county officials in cooperation with the federal and
city officials there is doubt that Cook county be
cleaned up In addition to the OF investigators by
the states attorney, the following steps will bring results
l. The county board should appropriate money TO hire
