Deaf since he was three years old.
Arthur B. Dillon, Phoenix tailor,
today lives in hope Of completely
recovering his hearing by means Of
radio.
The radio is bringing the first
sounds to Dillon since he was
stricken by an attack of spinal
meningitis. The accidental discovery
that he can hear music by means
Of the radio head set will provide a
basis for scientific study of the sub.
ject in the hope of helping other
deaf mutes who have been similarly
afflicted.
Roy Kendrick, proprietor Of a
Phoenix radio establishment, was
responsible for the startling discov.
cry when he placed the receiving
set jokingly over Dillon's ears.
The experiment was SO success.
ful he remained at the set and
heard musical concerts from Pitts.
burg, Providence and Cleveland and
Louisville.
Piano music is clearer than anv
other sounds, and as yet he has
been unable to catch the human
voice in song. He has, however.
heard the sounds TX" and "A" as
the stations are announced, and he
says today he believes IL he had
some one to teach him he could
learn to distinguish all the sounds.

HUMAN VOICE IS
SENT 1000
MILES
American and British Radio
Stations Linked by Recent
Invention.

NEW YORK, March 1O.-A new
chapter in radio history was writ
ten Friday night.
Linked together without the aid
Of any physical connections, six
powerful broadcasting stations in
the United States and one in Eng
land, transmitted single program
and put the human voice to flight
over distance of 1000 miles.
Four of the stations in the
group served the dual purpose of
broadcast and relay stations, from
which the voice Of the speakers,
and the musical program at the
Massachusetts, Institute of Tech
nology dinner, at the Waldorf
Astoria was reinforced in transmits
sion power as it leaped outward
from station to station, on jour
ney eastward to England and west
ward to San Francisco.

1t is estimated that SO, 900 900 per-
sons were in the possible radio
audience and that the radio waves
covered an area Of 1,500,000 square
miles.
W'th microphones placed in the
Waldorf Astoria hotel, the speakers
voice was carried to WIZ in this
clly, where IL was broadcast and
also carried on land wires to WGY,
Schenectady, which radiated the
same program on both 100 and $50

at Hastings, Neb., as we'll as Man

broadcast the Pittsburgh wave on
one hundred and eight meters.
which was picked up by KGO, San
Francisco, for west coast listeners.
New Invention Successful.
The Pacific to North Sea radio
broadcasting experiment brought
into use an invention perfected by
Frank Conrad, assistant chief en-
gineer of the Westinghouse COM
pany at Pittsburgh, which elm
mated the use Of telephone wires
for transmission of the music and
words from one broadcasting sta
ton to another. The entire pro
gram was relayed by air, the var
ious broadcasting stations rehand-
ling and revitalizing the impulse.
This is an outstanding achieve
ment," said Gerard Swope, president
Of the General Electric Company.
at seems to me that It has great
significance in our national life be-
cause it is going to draw our
isolated communities together In a
more cohesive group
The international Significance of
such broadcasting likewise was
stressed.

amounted to 20 millions of dollars
during the past year and that special
taxes, as automobile, gasoline, in
isurance premium and income amount
led to another two million. per cap

stated that the railroads pay one
seventh but cmphas lied the fact that
this amount must be taken up in
commodity prices. He said that
school taxes were per capita bur
den of S2405. or 81 percent of the
direct property tax and roughly di-
vided the levy among the different
levying subdivisions. He pointed out
the high proportional cost of inter

that while we all wish lower taxes,
do we wish them at the expense Of
