Radio Aids in AntinOe Rescue

The whole world was thrilled a few
months ago with the story of how the
heroic crew of the American Liner
President Roosevelt saved the lives of
twenty-one officers and men from the
sinking British steamer Antinoe. The
heroism of the men who aided in this
stormy midwinter rescue has been ac-
claimed ON both continents, but it is
only recently that the part played by
radio has come to light.
1t was the radio compass equipment
on the President Roosevelt which
made it possible to save the lives of
this British crew. Although this equip
ment is ordinarily used only to obtain
the ships position, it was used in this
case to guide the American ship to the
sinking Antinoe.
The Antinoe, being disabled and
blown about by the severe storm, did
not know its own position correctly. 4
The President Roosevelt was able to
reach the disabled ship, however, by
tuning in ON its distress signals with
the loop receiver of the radio compass.
The ship then proceeded in the direc-
ton indicated by the loop, and after
run of seven hours, finally located the
Antinoe which was over a hundred
miles off of its charted position. Thus.
the radio loop saved the President
Roosevelt from going hundred miles
out of its way and saved the DELAY
which might have proved fatal to the
British sailors.

Power Line Interference Ordered
Stopped

Listeners of station KGW. of Port
land, Oregon were complaining of Sc
we're interference with their radio
phone reception, by leakage from
power lines. Station KGW, backed UP
by a number of radio owners, investi-
gated the source of the interference
and filed complaint against certain
Light and Power Company. 1t was
found that this power company was
using about 5000 volts on lines that
were originally insulated to stand
1890 volts, and that the interference
was caused by leakage at these insu-
lators.
The action of KGW has resulted in
an order from the Public Service Com
mission of Oregon, directing the
power company to repair their leaky
power lines so as to eliminate inter-
fernce with radio reception.

Ans.-No, not if the second antenna

Germany Hears United States With
A Curtain Rod Antanna

Instances of freak radio reception
are contantly being reported, but this
one seems little more 'freakier''
than most others:
Hans Steinhauser, a citizen of
Munich, Germany reports the frequent
reception of the United States sta
ton WY of New York. Mr.. Stein
hauser uses no ground connection for
this record breaking reception. He
employs an iron curtain rod for an
antenna and single tube in his re-
ceiver. He reports clear and steady
reception on the headphones although
his limited knowledge of the English
language, and the rapid speaking of
the WY announcer make it hard for
him to understand we'll.
This unusual reception takes place
in the heart of the large city of
Munich, where the receiver is sur
rounded by veritable sea of tin roofs.
1t this is the sort of reception which
is obtained with such poor equipment
and location, what might one expect
with a good American Neutrodyne
under the same conditions

ter Stoves, president. 1t is the earn
est desire of every member of the
organization to see that home build
ers receive full value from their build
ing operations in the form of finished
homes that will yield years Of salts
factory service to owners.
The twelve lumber dealers belong
ing to this association have a record
Of more than 10 years in business
in San Antonio, during which time
they have aided hundreds Of families
to buy and build new houses.
EXPERTS IN LINE.
During these years, they have
gained much knowledge of lumber
and home building and they now are
experts in this class of business.
The modern lumber merchant does
not merely sell materials, which enter
into the construction Of a home. His
service to prospective builders covers
a large field. He is able to advise
most carefully and conservatively on
the class of dwelling, materials which
give the best service and the attrac-
tiveness of the completed product.
Lumber dealers are now able to
finance, prepare plans and secure con-
tractors and workmen for home,
Mr.. Stoves states. If person has a
lot paid for, he may go to lumber
company and have. a home built.
AID BUILDERS.
The lumber company will survey
the property and assist the prospec-
tive home owner in drawing suitable
plans for the location. When the
plans and specifications are complet.
ed to suit the builder. the lumber
company will receive bids from the
most reliable contractors. The bids
are opened by the home builder and
the contract and loan papers are
signed.
The work OF the lumber company
has really just started at this time.

experience in the handling of lumber,

SAVE TINE.
The lumber company pays the work
men, contractors and fixture men
weekly or monthly. according to the
agreement in the contract. This is
another aid TO the builder in the
form of a great time saver.
All of this service is rendered by
the lumber company at no extra cost.
Mr.. Stoves states. There are no added
charges for any of this work. There
is a discount of 3 per cent when cash
is paid for the building. No broker
