HEARS SIX STATIONS
IN 1000 MILE CHAIN
Cuban Radio Operator Achieves
Remarkable Results During
Broadcasting Experiment.

5 While radio engineers conceived the
idea of linking together by radio six
powerful broadcasting stations to
simultaneously reach an audience ap-
preaching fifty million in number
with the same program, little did
they realize that certain persons,
favorably situated, would be able to
hear all six stations in the Z, 600 lie
Chain" - -..
Successful reception from the six
stations is the claim of Frank II.
Jones, however, owner of Station
6Kw. in far. away Tninuca, Cuba,
the night Of March z, when the an
nual alumni dinner Of the Massachu-
setts Institute of Technology Society
was being broadcast by stations
WIZ, at New York city; WGY, at
Schenectady, and rebroadcast after
the program was extricated from the
other stations, KDKA, Pittsburgh,
Pa; xxx, Hastings. Nebr-: KGO,
Oakland, Calf. and FAC. Manches-
ter, England.
Broadcasting stations always find
many interesting and revealing let
usual experiment, but the experience
Mr.. Jones relates in a letter to Gen.
Harbord, president of the Radio
Corporation of America, and one OF
the principal speakers on the pro-
gram that night, is unique and extraor-
dinary. .-
Used Two Sets.
Mr.. Jones reported using two re-
ceiving SETS, one for waves between
200 meters and 500 meters, and a
shorter wave. set to receive on wave
lengths between 30 meters and 900
meters. Both are untuned radio fire.
quency sets, the longer wave SCI
wave set picks up the signals upon a
thtrty-foot indoor antenna.
Excerpts from the letter follow:
'I was first listening In of
KDKA's 100-meter wave and heard
meeting Of Massachusetts, Institute OF
Technology from New York then
checked them on their 336-metel
wave. In going back to their 100.
meter wave L ran into -WGY at abou,
los meters. with the same broadcast
much to my surprise, L then checked
WGY on their $50 meter wave and had
the. proceedings coming out of two
loud speakers at the same time, one
from WGY on $50 and the, other from
WGY on 105 meters"

In the scale from 100 meters to 45s
meters Mr.. Jones heard the same pro
gram on seven different wave lengths

Plunging into the discussion of pro-
hibition in Washington, which has
recently drawn the fire of both "wets"
and "drys," with widely varying
views, Harry NJ Luckett, divisional
chief in charge of general prohibition
agents, with headquarters here, in a
report to Prohibition Commissioner
Haynes. published today, reveals an
increase in arrests, reviews the re-
suits of the division, which he calls
"a remarkable showing" and con-
cludes that "in my judgment, condi-
tions are decidedly better than they
were year ago."
Records of the entire United States
with it's eighteen divisional areas
show, Chief Luckett said. that the
fourth division, including the city of
Washington, has been close to the
top of the list each month during
the last year.
Fourth Division Is Second.
''The fourth division" he said, 'fs
second to division 2. which includes
New York and northern New Jer-
sey, in the number of arrests and
cases made"
During the month of February, it
was said, agents of the fourth divi-
sion, including Maryland, Delaware,
West Virginia and the ten northern
counties of ef, Virginia. had io made q q
u over the preceding month. During
February 215 arrests were made,
| compared with 1S4 in January. OF
the liquor seized in Washington and
Maryland, Chief Luckett said, only
about 1 per cent is genuine"
Plenty of Corn Seized.
N,,$ - oi

other 9 per cent is gin, which is usual
| ly made from redistilled sdenatured
alcohol artificially colored and flavor
noted of violations of the national
prohibition act in the city of Wash
| ington, and. in my judgment, condi-
tions are decidedly better than they
were a year ago, he declared.
stated in his official report, that the
| City of Washington is practically
| free of real beer. Occasionally we
| hear of the sale of beer. but after
investigation we find the complaint
a residence or store selling home
| brew beer on small scale.
| Freight Shipments Seized.
| Attempts have been made, how
| ever, to bring beer into the city in
freight cars, and on two occasions
I we were successful In Selling such
cars. As matter. of fact, very few
complaints regarding the sale of beer
in this city are brought to our at
| tention. Most Of our seizures are corn
whisky. or moonshine. of very poor
grade. Corn whisky is the most
prevalent variety now coming in, good
whisky being Impossible to obtain
with the possible exception Of that
furnished by drug stores on physi-
cians's prescriptions" the report
/, stated.
During the period from January l.
| 1898, to March 1, 1924, official records
| show, all kinds of spirits seized by
| the agents of the fourth division OF
! general prohibition agents operating
| in the District of Columbia totaled
1916 gallons, consisting Of 1858 gal

SPEAKER EXPLAINS CREED
Teachings of and About Jesus DIFF
ferent, He Says.

1--WE must distinguish between the
teachings of Jesus and the teachings
about Jesus. The teachings of Jesus
inspire men. Teachings about him
confuse men," said Rev. DR.. j. S, Lowe,
general secretary of the Universalist
Church, in a sermon last night at the
Church of Our Father.
THE sordid materialist,' often
styled the hard-headed business man,
says the ideals of Jesus won't work.
The fundamentalist says man is too
depraved to work them Both are
wrong. Both leave us in the dark
and without hope. The faith of Jesus,
like a grain of mustard seed, max es
the golden rule practical 1t is the
only rule that is practical. The fail
ure of every other rule proves it"
