TREES MADE TO TALK.
Rangers Use Limbs for Radio
Antenna.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
SNOQUALMIE, Wash. August 30
Making living trees talk Is the sue
cessful test just completed by forest
rangers in the big reserve here. In
stead of carrying burdensome wire
for antenna, two rangers found they
could induce the multitude of limbs
of fir and hemlocks to do the work.
Driving a copper nail into the base
of the trunk and connected to the
radio sender started every twig and
leaf swapping Off waves. Radio mes
sages have to date been sent by
means Of trees two or three miles.
More experiments are in progress
in the Northwest woods to increase
the efficiency of the method. BY such
means any station may easily be noti-
fed by radiograms instead OF utiliZ-
ing the present system of telephones.
A ranger may be half a mile from
a phone in an expediencey and by
simply attaching his radio set to a
tall tree instantaneous communication
is certain. A peculiar feature of the
tree antenna Is that the higher the
altitude better waves are sent out.

De VALERA CITES THREAT.
OF WAR BY LLOYD GEORGE
Says This Was Reply to Rejection
of Britain's Offer in Boun-
dairy Dispute.
By the Associated Press

by the Associat ted Press
DUBLIN, August 30.-In a further
statement on the Irish boundary
question, in respect to the 1921 nego-
tlations, Eamonn de Valera declared
today that when he refused the Brit
ish governments proposals in July,
1921, Lloyd George threatened imme-
date war. but asked later for a con-
sidered reply.
De Valera quoted the reply sent by
him in behalf of the Dali cabinet
definitely rejecting the partition pro-
posals and refusing to admit the
right of the British government to
mutilate Ireland, as stating: "If the
British government stands aside, we
can effect complete reconciliation
with the minority
De Valera has also published for
the first time his letter to Gen
SHUTS, South African war leader, who
acted as mediator in the Irish ques-
tion, written at the end of July, 1921,
which stated: Unless the northeast
comes in on some reasonable basis
no further progress can be made. An
Ireland in fragments nobody cares
about. A unified Ireland alone can
be happy or prosperous"
