 There are four hroadCasting sta tions in Moscow and one each in LeniDgrad, kharkov and kieff. The biggest Moscow hroadcastng sta ton, "kcmintern," works upon 3 wave length of i450 meters. It hroadCastS daily concerts and news paper information In the form of a radio gazette, which is believed to he the only radio-newspRper in the world
 The other Moscow stations are of q smaller capacity. Political elu- cation seems 10 be the chief object of their hroadcasting programs, Anti-religious propaganda is also finding its way through the broad casting stations. which have special programs adapted for children and adults,
 Three radio weeklies are published In Moscow. with total circulation of more thar 15o,ooO.
 Preliminary registration for the possession of receiving sets has now b"en abolished and the sale of radio receiving sets has been made free.

RURAL DISTRICTS
 NOT 50 HEALTHY
Armenian Towns Show Better
 Records

Erivan, Russian Armenia. Sept, ! 5 tPl-ToWn life in Russia is more healthy than peasant life in the coun- tryside, 8 survey made by the Ameri- can Near East Relief in Russian Ar menia shows.
 The investigators found, in a study of disease, mortality and sani- tation. that there is no ground for the timehonored belief that rural life IS inherently wholesome, The far mer and his family. contrary to gen eral belief. live under sanitary con- ditions which average lower than the town dwellers. The old oaken bucket of the farmer frequently car' ries the germs of typhus and other Nater-borne disease; the average Russian farmhouse iS a hermetical- lv sealed dwelling to which the health giving qualities of sun and air have infrequent access, and hy- giene among the Armenian peasan- try is on a very low basis. The in tant death rate among the farm dwellers Is everywhere higher than that of the towns, and the average lifetime of the farm worker in three years less than that of the urban in habitant.
 The natural advantages which the rural district possesses are more than offset by the ignorance and negligence of the peasant in obsery- ing the most elementary principles Of hygiene.
 The Armenian relief organization, in connection with it's plan for re- moving thousands of its orphan charges from institutions to homes in various districts of Armenia, has found it necessary to install a serv- ice of public health nurses who are gradually raising the standard of rural life throuchout the country.

NEXT step on
SHOALS IS IN
DOUBT
Effort May Be Made in House
to Send Underwood Bill
to Conference

The Muscle Shoals legislation
may be started today by the House
on the final leg Of its journey
through Congress.
CONGRESSMAN Mckenzie, chairman
of the House Military Affairs Com
mittee, who has charge OF the bill.
expected to ask the House this
afternoon to disagree with the Un-
derwood changes in the House bin
and to send the new bin to con
ference.
Indications were that unanimous
consent to this plan Of handing
the bill could not be obtained from
the House. It was reported several
Congressman would object, prefer
ring that the bill be sent to the
Military Affairs Committee for con-
sideration Of its provisions.
A rumor was current that Sena-
tor Underwood desired to keep the
bill out OF conference and have II
referred to the House committee.
Reasons assigned for his position
were that the bill, IL sent to con-
ference, would be thrown into the
hands OF enemies in the Senate, be
cause the Senators who opposed
the bill In the Senate would be MEM
bers Of the conference.
Friends of the Underwood plan
for disposing OF Muscle Shoals
properties believe it possible to win
over its support q majority Of the
House Military Affairs COMMITTEES.
If a. favorable report on the bill
can be had from this committee.
It Is possible the bin viii be- &C.
cepted by the House as 1t came
from the Senate. Its passage with
out change by the House would
send the legislation to the Presf-
dent for his approval.
House leaders had not decided
on procedure with the bill should
the House decline to send It to
conference. It probably will re-
main on the Speakers table. until
next week while a plan Of action
IS perfected. It il possible that a.
special drive may be made later
by the leaders to get IL TO con
ference where efforts can be- made
TO reach an acceptable compromise

B A B Y CLAIMED
BY UNWED
GIRL
Florence Bentley, of Promi-
nent Family, Hopes to Have
Daughter Adopted

How the mother of Baby Ruth
deserted the month-old infant IN
a rooning house at 1915 Tenth
street on January 9 because it
was the only obstacle in the way
of her marriage to a prominent
Boston business man, was told by
the twenty-five-year-old girl at the
District Jail today.
The young mother maintains
that her name is Florence Bentley,
but she refuses to tell the name
of her socially prominent parents
or the name Of the man she had
hoped to marry.
Returned Willingly.
Miss Bentley was located through
addresses at the Tenth street room
ing house. She returned willingly,
she says, because she wants to see
Ruth adopted by a kind family hero.
Her story is the very old one Of
girl who placed too much conf
dence in an insincere man, who fed
her on promises he never kept. She
spiirns any thought OF attempting
to bring him to justice.
Engaged to Wed.
Miss Bentley admits that since her
mistake she has met man of the
right sort, whom she desires to
marry: that their wedding was to
take place in the summer, but that
doubtless it will be all off when
news of her disgrace filters back
60 the Hub.
