RULERS
Royal Family viii Keep in
Touch During Separa-
tons by Wireless
BY DUKE N. PARRY,
Cosmopolitan News Service.

TOKYO. Aug. 12.-Members of
the various branches Of the japan.
csc Imperial family ore Just now
completing arrangements for the
establishment Of radio receiving
and sending sets in the summer
palaces where the chief members
Of the first family Of Japan are
spending the summer months.
This is the first time since the
subject Of radio amusement first
came UP for discussion in japan
that the government has made ar.
arrangements to install receiving sets
and give full permission for their
use.
While the chief purpose OF the
installation Of the radio sets in
the Imperial palaces outside of
Tokyo is to provide amusement
facilities to the members of the
Imperial line, there Is another and
equally important reason for the
installation of the sets. When thu
two great earthquakes visited Japan
OH September / and January Is
lest, various members of the I'm.
perial family were scattered all the
way from Nikko, in the north. to
Numazu, In the south.
The desire to communicate be.
tw cen various members of the fam.
lily, and to send word of the safety
of it's members brought out then
the necessity for some sort of radio
communication between the de.
tached villas. 1t was necessary for
the prince regent, in January, to
send carrier pigeons to the EN-.
peror and Empress, who were out
of the city, in order to let the I'm.
pnrial parents know Of his safety.
The wireless plants which are
now planned are to be at the I'm,
perial villas at Nikko, where the
Emperor and Empress will spend
the summer; at Lake Inawashiro,
where the regent and the crown
princess will spend the summer. and
N the headquarters Of the Imperial
bcdyguards in order that this or.
ganization may keep in constant
touch with the chief members of
the Imperial family.

|ROrnping Around
the
Radio Dial
~ Listener-In

1t was a jolly little reunion that
rsdio arranged for us last night.
We slumped back in the depths
OF our easy chair and one by one
they came to join us--Graham Nc
Nance. Senator Walsh ana the
lee ther- lunged individual who for
thirteen days greeted every men.
ton OF the name Of Davis with a
using rebel yell.
| As with every reunion, however,
there were some Of the old familiar
voices nnissing-most noticeably
those Of the Alabama Parrot and
and his "twenty-four votes for Un-
derwood" and of the roll.calling Pat
Haltigan.
| The neophyte, indicted into the
select circle of familiar radio voices
at the evening sitting, was John
! W. Davis. none other than the
Democratic nominee for the Presi.
dency Of the United States.
After assuming our cloak OF I'm
munity from political partisanship.
we set it down that Mr.. Davis
stood the test well and that he
bi ought with him voice that bids
fair to become the airs greatest
more distinct than that of Senator
Walsh and gentler, If possible, than
that of McNamee.
1t is. the voice Of the true radio
orator.
The crown jewel in the collec-
! ton of announcement gems was
the Introductory speech made by
McNamee before the notification
ceremonies.
Clarksburg and Goff Plaza and
the carnival spirit of the towns
men became something very real
to us as McNaree painted with
def strokes on the nights canvas

And when the nights ceremonies
were, done. It was a temptation.
but for the rain. to slip away for
a while and rest in that well-worn
front yard the Davis home.
Senator Walsh, the non.partisan
arbiter Of bitter disputes and ar.
guments at the Garden session of
the Circle OF Voices, appeared
among us last night in a different
role.
Gone was his impartiality and
In its stead was the Walsh of the
Senate investigating committee,
defending and attacking. with a
vigorous tongue. in the interests
Of his party.
The only voice that was Just as
It was in the Garden was that Of
the rebel-yelling West Virginian,
whose entrees on the air are
classic.
We were struck last night with
the differences in the reactions Of
the crowds to the words OF q
speaker in the presence Of a micro.
phone.
1t may have been the rain that
caused 1t. or a certain ignorance
as to how to take the words Of
this son OF Harrison county, now
risen to one Of the two Hottest
positions among the American
people.
But the fact remained that
there was far less spontaneous
cheering and more III timed out.
bursts than at any similar event
to which we have listened.
We put it down to a fear of the
microphone.
