MOTOR BOATS HAVE
 AMAZING SPEEDS
Detroit River Match Will Be
 Fastest Ever Run

Detroit, April 1T. - The greatest speed test of all time. so far as power boats are concerned, Is an tieipated when Commodore Gar Wood and French driver. as yet unnamed. match skill and craft on the Detroit river for the Harms worth trophy. When tho trophy last was defended Wood was pre- pared to show Q speed of between Sj and 90 miles an hour. The speed was not necessary. however. for his opponent met with mishap and sank before the race was completed.
 That was in 1921, and Woods Miss America IT., which had de- yeloped more than 80 miles an hour in official trials, never has been raced since. A new craft of the hy- droplane type, powered as was Miss America IT., with four Liberty mo- tors of 12 cylinders each. probably itll be built for Wood to defend the ''B. I. IT, as the Harmsworth pHlclaliy lS ueSikHHteu. ..t .
 Since the deed of gift, covering tho gold cup trophy has been re- yised to limit competition to craft Of the rpn-about type. the British International trophy is the only re- maining event that, gives free rein to contestants seeking speed rec- ords. The gold cup went back east last fall for the first time since 1915.
 Wood first won the Harmsworth at Cowes. England, In 1920. and successfully defended it in Detroit in 1921. Whether he can make 1t three straight victories, a feat so far msccomplished by any other American power boat racer, is a question being discussed by his To- cal supporters.
 Woods defender in 1921 was a single step hydroplane. Since that time, however, he has obtained the patents on multiple step hydro planes, and 1t is known he plans the fastest craft that ever has skinned the surface of a racing course. .,
 The committee In charge of the local regatta is making tentative plans for a three-day contest. Un- der the rules governing the "B. I. IT," a contestins country may en- ter several boats and must win two heats to lift the trophy. The heats will bo from 30 to 48 knots, to be decided by tho racing committee.

RADIO SET INSTALLED

Soroptimist Club and Hospital
Fund Committee Finance
Installation.

This Soroptimist Club, with the as
sistance of the Washington radio
hospital fund committee, has installed
in the Districts Home for the Aged
and Infirm at Blue Plains a central
radio receiving station for the enter
tainment of the more than 800
inmates. Five loud speakers, located
in the sun parlors in the various
wards, arC connected to the receiving
station by a circuit of $50 feet of
wire.
Shortly before Christmas the So.
roptimist Club called on Leroy Mari.
chairman of the radio hosital fupi
committee, TO address its members AZ
a luncheon. Mr.. Mark talked on tha
subject closest to his heart-the lack
of entertainment in the Washington
hospitals, orphan asylums and chart
ia BILE institutions. 1t aroused the inter
est of the club and Immediately a
campaign was started to raise funds
to install radio apparatus in the
almshouse, the institution selected

Mr. Mark went to the poorhouse the

and learned that radio entertainment
has been flowing through the loud
speakers day and night ever since lit
was installed. 1T might be the

Medium-sized Sets VS.. Distance.

The craze for long distance recep-
ton is gradually dying out, except
among new fans, according to an eX-
perienced listener and broadcaster of
the West. He advocates medium
sized sets, suggesting that by tuning
in on stations nearer home we will
get less interference and just as good
programs.
When a man or boy gets his first
set, be it a crystal or a single tube,
he begins to reach out a thousand
miles or SO. expecting to hear some
thing fine, but all he gets at that dis
tance, usually, is static and perhaps
very weak signals, according to
Earnest V. Wright, the expert quoted.
Finding that he cannot pick up dis
tant stations tiSfactorily, he trades
in his set toward a larger one. Then
with the first word or note from some
far-away broadcaster, he gets the
fever for hearing something still far
ther away. until he joins the ranks
of the super or ultra sets"
Multitude sets are too expensive
for some fans to maintain. There
are eight tubes to burn out, instead
of two or three; whole array of
batteries to recharge or replace every
so often, and what does he get in re-
turn? No better music or oratory
LIdi lie C1l get IIOII the nearest
large city station. Therefore, unless
he is wealthy he soon finds out that
three-tube set will bring in all the
entertainment he wishes either by
phones or by loud speaker. Then
comes the change and perhaps sanity.
Medium sized sets are now said to
be selling ten to one of the multi
tube affairs. This fan tells me that
he is tired of trying to get distance
stuff which comes in badly. Conse-
quently he has decided to listen to
stations he can get well and be con-
tented. He plans to get rid of his
f1ve-tube neutrodyne and purchase a
good three-tube outfit. Distance in
radio, he says, is something like US
ing a telescope: You will strain
your eye until your head aches star
ing at little white speck, which may
be a house on a mountainside 30
miles away, but if you We're trans
ported to its front yard you would
find it house not worth a second
glance-a very cheap shack, perhaps,
and not nearly as nice or interesting 6
az many near at hand. 1t is because
it was 80 miles away that you were
fascinated"
From Los Angeles my friend can
get Chicago, Salt Lake, Denver and
Kans sas City stations, but the distance
away was all that made them more
interesting than those near home.
Now he is determined to listen in on
the home and medium distant sta
tions and leave long distance alone.
Isn't this pretty good idea? Those
who live in New York have as good
programs available as there are in

''The amendment is an enabling act,

the sensible means of incorporating

This chiId-labor amendment comes
before as with a presumption against

to its opponents, power that is now
in the hands of the States.
1T has been argued that manu-

advantage in competing with manu-
facturers in States whose laws are
more stringent.

RADIO QUERIES

Radio Editor:
The following is an open letter to
the one signed by Mr.. +. F. Camp
bell that was published in The Eve
ming Star of January 16:
Dear Mr.. Campbell:
read with interest your article
on Interference as published in The
Evening Star of January 16.
You have the correct call letters
of the station that is causing this
so called interference. although you
don't seem to be aware of the fact.
While 1 don't happen to be the owner
of the station In question, l do be-
long to the same radio fraternity that
he does, namely, the American Radio
Relay League, and deem II great
pleasure and privilege to cast my
hat in the ring. in his defense, against
unjust complaint and insinuation as
to his integrity as law abiding
radio amateur.
want to state here that when
the young gentlemen in question
stated over his radiophone that ii
was Three boy. Sall boy" transmit
ting he could not have given you his
call letters any clearer palmer
and that he was not using false call let
ters to try and conceal his Identity
because he knew that he was violat-
ing the law.
In radiophone work it is quite easy,
in announcing call letters. to have
the listener-in to mistake one letter
for another, so code was adopted
whereby word is spoken for each
letter in the call. the first letter
of each spoken word forming the
call letters of the station that is
doing the transmitting. With less
effort than 1t took you to send in
your complaint to the radio inspector
you could have gotten this informa-
tion from the Department of Com-
merce and thereby prevented your
public accusal of law breaking
against this amateur. I think that
If you look back a bit you can re-
member hearing, at one time or an
other, some of your favorite broad
casting stations using words to des-
ignate their call letters. Back in
the early days of radio broadcasting
the Naval Air Station at Anacostia
used the words Nan Sail Fox"
don't think they did this because
they wanted to conceal their identity,
knowing that they were violating
the law. Their call was NSF Sc
much for the call letters.
Now for the so-calIed interference
from this station. I wonder if YOU
realize that all receiving sets that
are built, especially the home built
variety, are not 100 per cent perfect
as regards selectivity, freedom from
harmonics. etc. / also wonder If you

as guilty of causing interference as
transmitting sets. / am referring to
sets of the regenerative type and
sets using radio frequency amplifica-
tion that is not properly balanced to
prevent oscillation. These things
should and must be taken into con-
sideration by persons making COM
plants.
In concluding, allow me to say that
if the broadcast listeners would be
just a little bit more broad minded
and consider their complaints just a
wee bit more before sending them in,
the relations between, them and the
amateurs would be much more con-
genial than at present. l also think
that you owe Mr.. Detweiler, the
owner and operator of Radio Station

apology for publicly inslnuating that
he was trying TO conceal his identity
