OFFICER CONSTRUCTS
SHORT WAVE RADIO

A short wave transmitter is being
made at Fort Sam Houston by Cap
tain F. p. Andrews. Signal Corps.
to be used in the transaction of
government business between the army
post and Fort Leavenworth.
Official messages have been receiv-
ed from Fort Leavenworth over short
wave radio with satisfactory results
for the past two or three weeks.
Lack of short wave transmitters
have prevented the local station from
us.-g the same medium in sending
messages TO the Kansas post.
Should the short wave set prove
satisfactory, a large saving in the
cost of operation will be effected.
1t costs the government IS cents
per message to send messages over
the high-power long wave set now
in use.
Captain Andrews estimates it will
cost less than cent per message
to transmit over the short wave set.
Preliminary tests with the short
wave set will be made with the sta
lions at Fort Leavenworth, Wash
ington and San Francisco.

WAR
WILL RESUME
. NEXT WEEK

Issues in the constables' war re
manned unsettled after two cases had
been tried in county criminal court
Friday. when each side won vic
tory. The right Of out-of-town con-
stables and their deputies TO make ar
rests within the city was not settled
by the decisions in the cases tried, as
these were based merely on the right
of defendants TO carry arms outside
their own precincts.
Constable E. H. Tslbert of Pre-
cinct No. was acquitted of carrying
a pistol. When il was shown that
he was coming into the city TO serve
a legal process the state moved that
the charge against him be dismissed.
SOLDIER FINED 500.
Deputy Constable B. L. Afford
was convicted Of the same charge and
fined 500. He admitted on the wit
ness stand that he was United
States soldier on furlough ar the time
of his arrest, and Judge Clifton held
he therefore could not be an officer
with the right 10 carry firearms.
Although neither of these cases
settled the controversy between the
city and county officials over the
right of the deputies to make arrests
in the city, other cases which will
place the issue before the court will
be filed within the week. according
to Assistant District Attorney Sam
Newton. Mr.. Newton is in charge
Of grand jury investigation.
SET NEXT WEDNESDAY.
Gases against Afford, charged with
an officer. and 7. H.
Lopez, charged with carrying pistol
were set for trial by Judge George
Clifton in the county criminal court
for next Wednesday at 2 o'clock.
Lopez is a deputy in Precinct No. z.
