National Conference to Take
Up New and Interesting
Developments in Field

BY ROBERT S. THORNBURGH
From the remarkable develop
ment of radio communication dur
Ing the past winter are growing
many new and interesting prob
lens that must be met by the
National Radio Conference, accord
ing to Department of Commerce
officials.
Some of the outstanding tasks
for consideration are:
Remove Uncertainties.
Recommendation for comprehen.
eive legislation that will remove the
present uncertainty from develop
ment projects and give industry and
science an opportunity to proceed
on established lines.
Suggestions as to the fixing OF
exclusive wave bands on which
photographs and motion pictures
may be transmitted by air.
Study OF underground radio COM
munication and recommendation as
to whether separate wave bands
should be provided for slibterranean
transmission.
Plans for an exhaustive investi-
cation of interferences to determine
range Of stations In all localities, re-
suits of which possibly would re-
duce the listeners troubles by fifty
per cent.
Perfect Existing Methods.
Chief Radio Inspector Terrell adj
mitted today, that the Government
is not much nearer to recommends
tons for radio legislation than last
36ll, but he said that there Is be-
ginning to be some capitalization
Of views among the experts as the
result Of experience gained in the
winter.
While no revolutionary changes
have taken place in the last few
months in the radio world there is
still q constant improvement In
details, and steps toward perfect
ing already existing methods, that is
keeping the science in a state Of
evolution.
Underground Radio.
Use Of the earth as q medium
for radio communication will not
help the Government greatly In its

problem, experts said today. Signals

casting device may be caught by
aeriaIs as well as by subterranean
antennae although IT was pointed
out that the earth offers greater
possibility for directional trans
mission.
Terrell said that experiments in
directionaI radio both by Govern
ment and private agencies offer
possibilities for meeting the ether
congestion problem. He explained
that two stations operating on the
same wave length but bre4dcasting
In opposite directions might be
located close together.

HEART DISEASE LEADS IN
MORTALITY TABLES

temperature, lowered vitality and
winter and spring season. Scarlet
fever and other infectious fevers
sometimes mark the beginning of
rheumatism and permanent heart
damage.
The so-called "growing pains" of
children are frequently signs of a
mild rheumatic attack and call for
prompt treatment. Sore Threats
should likewise call for immediate
medical supervision. Nervous chil-
drcn, because Of their liability f.,
rheumatic infection and its seoucI
namely. heart disease, stand in need
of special attention.
ChOrea. commonly known as st.
Nitus' Dance. is nervous affection
sometimes occurring in children. This
malady has been found to be a fore
runner Of rheumatism in numerous
instances. Obviously, such condi-
ton cali, for the best possible mcdi-
cal care.
Eternal vigilance is the keynote in
preventing heart disease. PROMPT
action in suppress sing conditions
which may eventually cause heart
disease is manifcstly the most effec-
tive weapon in combating deaths from
heart disease.
Many cities have made special pro-
vision for the education and care of
children having heart disease. Such
children should not be made the OBJ
jects of pity. coddling. or too marked
attention. lest they become introspcc-
tive and depressed. Wise treatment
however, is Indispensable.
Heart clinics for adults are another
important need in this day of in
creased appreciation Of what may be
accomplished through approved guild
ance and treatment.
Whcn properly treated in the early
stages persons with heart disease
may look forward to normal span
Of life as useful members of society.
The question will naturally arise in
the minds of many, How can l learn
the condition Of my heart" A care
full physical examination by COM
petent physician will answer this
question. The periodical physical ex-
animation is an excellent method of
preserving the health and capacity for
work

Il SILK roSette on the side
BESIDES that they got new shoes
and heavy ribbed stockings and

With so much trying on and looking

"All right, Mo.her. Well CO. said
Nancy and Nick. But they didn't

The picture galleries were miles

they finally arrived at the place.
There was one long room after an

An Echo From Teapot Dome
(San Francisco Bulletim

Capt. J. X. Robson has for several years served
as q navy engineering chief under the advanced
rank OF admiral. 4 few weeks back he applied for
retirement under his temporary rank and unlc :.
normal circumstances that privilege might have
been accorded him. But when the matter came to
the president he declined to give approval hi;
reason being that Robson in his capacitv of naval
engineer officially approved OF the Teapot Dome
lease. His punishment for that indscreion will,
be retirement, not under the rank of rear admiral
but under that of captain. carrying with it a re
dufed retired pay. Presidents determination in
inns case is rebuke to Robson ONLY mt 10
otller officers OF the navy who participated in the
business Of Teapot Dome
IN this rebuke there IS 70 implication of tn,n-
clai dishonesty on RObisons part What if does
IMPLY IS that the president resents the acts b,'
"hlrh Robson. with other officers of the navy
sought, in the Teapot Dome deal, to circumven5
the authority OF congress in the matter of getting
an OH supply FOR the navy. 1t for congress- not
lor olicers OF the navy t. determine what provision
or OIL should be made for the navy and when i.
should be made.
