Music To Tacoma
Scientist Triumphs

Seattle-( AFTER experimenting
for two years o. r. Redfern, federal
supervisor of radio for the Pacific
northwest, has eradicated excessive
interference caused by precipators in
large copper smelter just outside
Tacoma.
Reception of Seattle, Portland, San
Francisco and Los Angeles, radio
programs by persons residing in Ia
coma and within a twenty mile radius
was impossible when the precipitators
were running.
Resistance rods were unsuccessful
as they are good conductors of high
frequency currents. Leyden Jar con-
densers were borrowed from the Radio
Corporation of America Attempts
to bypass the radio frequency oscil-
lations to the ground failed. Radio
frequency chokes were valueless be-
cause of their small size. Larger
chockes were made, reducing interfer-
ence fifty per cent. The chokes were
increased, and interference stopped.
The smelter uses twenty one me-
chanical rectifiers, which run twenty
four hours a day. Ratification is ac-
complished by disc mounted on the
shaft of motor turning 1900 times
minute. The discharge occurs as a
rotating shoe passes stationary shoe.
The current employed varies from
10000 to $4,000 volts at fifty to one
hundred milliamperes.

City Beats Farm
In Divorce Race

Saltwater, Okla. - Mems chances to
keep the girls they we'd are three times
as great in country districts as in
cities.
Census figures, complied by J. T.
Sanders, head of the department e
agricultural economics at the Okla
homa A and NJ. college here, show
there Is one divorce for every three
marriages in cities of 5000 or more
persons in the state.
Yet in the farming sections of the
state, Sanders points out there was
an average of one divorce for every six
marriages.
Differences in social conditions in
cities and on the farm is instrumental
in the destruction of family life,'
Sanders believes. although farm
boys and girls possibly marry younger,
city boys and girls doubtless go to
the altar more hastily, and with far
less intimate acquaintance than do the
farm boys and girls.
again, the after-marriage social
life on. the farm is not so dazzling
as is that of the newly weds in the
cities. Social life in the country is
more somber, more intimately asso-
ciated with religious worship and
more closely associated with local
folks"

KENOSHAN WINS
LITERARY HONOR
Earl Marlatt, Formerly of
Kenosha, Hailed as
Coming Poet.
GIVEN GOLDEN ROSE

Hailed as "the coming poeR of New
England and perhaps of the country"
by the literary press Of Boston was
Earl B. Marlatt, formerly of Kenosha
and now professor of philosophy IN
the School of Religious Education of
Boston University, according to press
notices reaching Kenosha this morn
ing. The tributes came as a result
of the fact that he was presented with
the golden. rose and laurel wreath,
symbolic of winning first prize in the
May poetry contest held in the second
Unitarian church in Boston.
An account of the literery joust
as carried in the Boston Traveller, one
of the leading papers of that eastern
metropolis, after describing Profess
sor Marlatt "as the coming poet of
New England and perhaps of the coun-
try" continues as follows:
Old French Rite.
"The poems and presence of poets
were part Of the May festival conduct
ed. at the church and the Inauguration
in this country for the first time of
the charming old French rite with its
golden rose and laurel wreath to the
winner.
"The Rev. Mr.. Marlatt is professor
of philosophy at Boston University
school of religious education. His Of
fering was in free verse and was en-
titled May Morning Its theme were
those lines from the old Provencal
Chanson:
est must have been May morning
when the world was made
"The judges were Profs. Dallas Lore
Sharp of Boston University, Katherine
Lee Bates of Wellesley and George
Lyman Kittredge of Harvard.
"The contestants read their poems
as feature of pretty tableau on
the church stage Miss Helen Lucas,
beautiful in her white silken robes of
May queen, presented the golden rose
and placed the laurel wreath upon the
brow of Mr.. Marlatt.
"The two other poem winners were
Nathan Haskell Dole, writer and re-
tired clergyman, and the Rev. Eugene
Rodman Snippen, pastor of the Sec
ond Church. Dole's poem was Bal
lade of Maytime.' The Rev. Mr.. Ship
penis was Echoes from England and
France
"The golden rose, it might be said,
is not a Pigment of imagination. 1t
grows in Nancy, France, and arrived
early this week for today's special
occasion"
Poem is Published Here
In another column of this paper
there appears the prize winning poem,
reprinted here just as it appeared in
the Boston Transcript"
Professor Earl Marlatt is widely
known in Kenosha having been on the
staff of the Kenosha Evening News for
several months prior to and several
years after his service in the army in
war days. Since leaving Kenosha he
has been graduated from the Boston
Theological Seminary, where he won
the Jacob Sleeper fellowship emitting
him to study abroad. Returning to
America he was offered the chair of
philosophy at Boston University which

May Find Out
Trend of Taxes
Bill Would Attempt to Discover Pres
ent Trend of Expenditures and
Receipts in Wisconsin.

Madison, Wis ,)-Another move
to learn whether state expenditures
and receipts are increasing or de-
creasing in Wisconsin has been started
in the assembly. The information is
sought from tax commission in a res
olution offered by Assemblyman Paul
H, Raihle, Cadott.
Available figures indicate that the
cost of state government has increas-
ed during recent years, Mr.. Raihle
claims, and he is seeking to determine
whether this is true. A similar reso-
luton introduced early in the session
by Assemblyman James A. Cody, An
tigo, the only democrat in the legisla-
ture, was killed.
The Raihle resolution would direct
the tax commission to publish re-
port on state finances covering that
three fiscal years of the present state
administration and the three last ifs
cal years of the preceding administra-
tion.s Copies would be furnished to
members of the legislature.
"The outstanding subject in pub
lie affairs in Wisconsin is that of tax
ation," the resolution says.
"The Wisconsin tax commission in
its report of the cost of state govern
ment for the first two years of the
present state administration, as conn
pared with the last two years of the
preceding administration, in Bulletin
No. 21, shows large increase both
in receipts and expenditures, amount
ing to an increase in receipts of $12,-
SIT ,435 and in expenditures of $S,720,-
O13.
"A knowledge of the fact whether
or not state expenditures and receipts
are increasing or decreasing is vital
to the public interest. 1t is the right
of the people to be put in possession
of these facts and it is the duty of
the state tax commission to put this
information in the possession of the
people"

MIDDLE STREET
TOLOSE BUSES
Company Announces That
+. Service Has Been A
Financial Failure.
NOT BEING PATRONIZED

The ten-minute bus service which
the Wisconsin Gas and Electric COM
pany provided on Middle street four
weeks ago will be discontinued with
the last run of the last bus at 11:17
o'clock Sunday night, it was announced
today by H. M. Pauley, manager of the
company. The reason given for the
withdrawal of the service was
financial one, it was said. The operat-
ing figures of the company showed
that the bus service, which was in
augurated following an urgent de-
mand expressed by the Kenosha Ad-
vancement association on behalf of
the people of the north side district,
was being carried at a considerable
loss which was averaging $16 day.
On only four days since the beginning
of the service, it was pointed out, did
the receipts on the two buses operated
on Middle street come to exceed fifty
per cent of the cost for that operation.
According to the original plans OF
the company the service was to be
provided as a temporary arrangement.
The residents in the Middle street
district were themselves to decide
whether the service would become
permanent one by their patronage.
If it was found that the service filed
a real need and proved to be rea-
sonably profitable one for the COM
pany, it would be continued. If the
contrary would prove the case the
service would be withdrawn.
Not Enough Passengers.
The announcement that the service
would be discontinued was received
with considerable surprise by che
officials of the Kenosha Advancement
association today. To many of these,
however, the extent of the patronage
was known and the company's report
showing that there were many buses
during the experimental period that
made the entire run without carrying
single passenger, forced the realiza-
ton upon them that it was the only
action that the company could take
at this time.
Manager Pauley declared today that
when the golf and bathing season
opened up it might be possible that
the company would once more place
the buses in service as an accomoda-
ton to those from all sections of the
city who desired to reach the munich
pal golf links or the bathing beach
on Washington Island. The demand
