More Contradictory Stories.

WASHINGTON, July e. Andrew
Melons treasury department insist
ed that Benjamin Strong of the fed
eral reserve bank is "only on a vaca-
ton in France, being in i'll health.
1t is also officially denied that Mellon
has communicated directly or indi-
rectly with Joseph Caillaux, finance
minister of France, concerning Ar
ticle Z, of the Mellon-Berenger debt
agreement.
The statements from the treasury
are probably issued to quiet the demo-
cratic opposition in the senate which
threatens to begin an attack before
congress adjourns against what il
regarded as the use of the federal
reserve banks resources to bolster
up the falling franc in the interest
of international bankers.
Democratic party campaign manag-
ers are planning to make political cap
Nal during congressional elections OF

ment and federal reserve working

charged.

LEGATION of the Bank of Frances
weekly statement revealing that near
ly 1,OOO,00O,OOO francs ($27,9OO,O O0)
have been put In circulation since
June "a, increasing initiation that
much. Together with this was the
announcement Of Caillaux's finance
ministry that 1t was impossible to sta
Billie the franc without foreign cred

the Bank of France alone was not
sufficient if 1t were used to save fur
Their the franc from further deprecia-

On this basis BRAND is warming
members of the chamber that The
present majority against ratification
Of the Mellon-Berenger debt agree
ment must be changed if the franc is
to be saved, apparently showing that
this must be done to get credits from
the United States.
Somebody is Lying.
Opposition to ratification is based
principally on Article of the agree
ment, providing for form of pool
ing of all French debts in a holding
corporation which under American
control can market bonds to U. S.
and other investors. Caillaux states
that an unofficial" cable signed by
Mellon of the U. S. treasury, has
been received saying that the United
States will not enforce Article z of
the agreement.
Caillaux is to hold conversations
with both Benjamin Strong, governor
of the New York federal reserve bank
and Montague Norman, governor of
the Bank of England, both now in
France, but not in Paris.
The American embassy announces
that Strong is expected to come to
Paris from the Riviera at once AMI
that communications on the French
financial problems are being sent him
hourly.

twenty feet long.
 The experimcnters also have found that signals are regular when the sky is clear, but weaken or en- tircly disappear when certain con- ditions of cloudiness are encounter ed, although a widespread area of rain which includes both transmit ter and receiver generally has been found to give better signals than those obtained in clear weather.
 Antennae Experiments
 Tests also are being made with many types of antennae for short wave transmission. These vary from a small antenna mounted entirely within the station to q large exterior structure more than 100 feet in the air. one of the most remarkable facts discovered in the short wave research is that signals may be sent great distances without a large an- tenna structure.
 Communication between 1-XV- the institutes field station-and various stations in Europe, Austra- lia and South America has been carried on regularly on an antenna system consisting of only two wires slightly more than twenty feet long and six feet apart.
 A new movable transmitter has ben constructed and is now being subjected to experiments. In this the antenna system may be turned to any direction. both in vertical and horizontal angle.
 The direction in which the rods point when in a horizontal position apparently has little effect on the strength of the signals at the re- ceiving stations, al though there are indications that the strongest signals are obtained when the antenna rod is pointing north and south. Com munication with stations at great distances, notably Australia and European stations, have been ob- tained with this system.

COMPLICATION FOUND IN O|L BURNER LAW
Ordinance May Never Be En-
 forced in Present Form

Ordinances affecting the install alton of oil burners. which are among several sections of the build ing code not yet in effect, may never be enforced in their present form. ii was indicated today when Building Inspector Arthur x. Ruth erford and Chief W. J. Noble of the fire department conferred.
 A special meeting of the fire board will be held tonight. but be- cause of apparent conflict in the law, Chief Noble will suggest that no action be taken until the com missioners have an opportunity to meet the building commission in joint session.
 The ordinance provides that per sons wishing to engage in the busi- ness of installing oil burners be lt- Censcd by the fire commission. The building commission insists that anyone handling electrical install ations be a licensed electrician and q it's last meeting declined to sane ton oil burner work by man who had failed in the recent examina- tions. Under these conditions, Chief Noble cannot issue permits as the ordinance provides unless the cleo trical inspector also gives his ap- proval and conversely the electrical inspector cannot permit installation without the fire chiefs approval.
 The ordinances are a part of the building code which provides that all fees be collected by an agent of the building commission. yet the fire chief would be called upon 10 collect fees if he issued permits, and he is an agent not of the building commission. but of the fire board, it is pointed out.
 If construction attends the place. ment of oil tanks, as is almost in Narably the case, the building in- spector's office comes into p'G,, further complicating the case, the officials have learned.

 He declared that despite the conservative announcements of
