The Arlington code signals affect
reception chiefly in the vicinity of
the National Capital. Other code

Atlantic Coast, on the Great Lakes
and Pacific Coast are interfering
with reception in these districts.
according to the complaints.
Radio experts, studying the sit

found that the Arlington station
caused interference with from 10 to

Experts declared that the Navy

Although he would not disclose de-

Gen. Andrews was highly elated with
the result of his trip.

WARSH|P SURVEYS
BOTTOM OF OCEAN
Use of Newly Invented Depth
Sounder Makes Naviga-
ton Safer.
pac,al Dispatch TO The Star.

LOS ANGELES. August ia
chart of the bottom Of the sea. auto
matically and continuously drawn
during a voyage. is now available to
the Navy as result of the work of
Lieut.. Leo +. Delsasso, United States
Naval Reserve. On shore Lieut..
Delsasso is physicist at the University
of California. southern branch. In
formation Just received from the Navy
Department tells of elaborate tests
of his new automatic depth-sounder
conducted by Lieut. Delsasso on board
the u. S. S. Maryland on its trip to
Australia.
The apparatus follows previous de-
velopment in the idea of sending a
sound impulse at high speed from
ship to the ocean bottom, and calcu-
lating by the time of the return echo
how deep the water Is. Heretofore,
it has been necessary for an attend
ant to watch operation and make con-
stant readings and calculations to be
sure of safety.
The Delsasso apparatus, employing
vacuum-tube amplification along with
marking devices, yields a chart which
not only advises the navigator of the
depth at a given time, but shows
gradients, approach or recedence OF
shadows, and in general gives warn
ing of anything untoward in the briny
depths.
1t is hoped that further improve
ments may enable the apparatus,
built in more rugged form. to be
placed on the bridge for convenient
use of the skipper. Had such de-
vice been available on the United
States destroyers. the Honda disaster
could have been avoided. In this ac-
cident several vessels were beached
after blind run through water whose
shallowness would certainly have been
reported by the depth-sounder.
Any solid surface of considerable
size, directly facing the vessel at right
angles to the line of oncoming sound,
will report it's presence to the depth
sounder. The object does not have
to be directly beneath. Thus a whale
for a moment might startle navi-
gator into thinking he was in shall.
low water. Lieut.. Delsasso un-
fortunately had no opportunity to use
his device in determining the prox-
unity of either whales or icebergs.
The latter case particularly calls for
further investigation.

BRITAIN REbUKES
INDIAN CROESUS
Richest Potentate Told to

LONDON, August 13.-His exalted
highness, the Nizam of Hyderbad, the
most powerful of the Indian rulers and
one Of the most wealthy men in the
world. has been Severly rebuked by
the British government for the dis
orderly state Of affairs in his province
and given an ultmatum until August
20 to appoint British officials at the
head of all important administrative
departments.
The ultimatum points out that
corruption has been rampant, that
state Offices have been sold and
Judges bribed. and that Oriental care
lessness and inefficiency are prevail
ing everywhere. with high officials
paying huge sums for an important
post in order to enrich themselves
at the expense of the population,
Excitement Runs High.
1t is reported that excitement is
running high in the NiZam's capital,
the fourth lorgest city in India, which
is powerfully garrisoned by British
troops.
Everybody is astonished at the
drastic action of the Indian office
against the richest and most in
fluential of the feudal rulers of the
country. How rich he is nobody
knows. but it is said his income eX-
ceeds $500, 100000 a year. Hyderabad
contains more millionaireS within its
walls than Chicago and New York
together
During the World War, the Nizam
raised several cavalry regiments and
ambulance trains for the empire at
cost of S10,000,000 and the government

praise his loyalty.
Well informed Indians in London
say. however, that the present dis
pute is not as superficial as it ap.

Lord Curzon leased the province OF

having 100000 population, from the
Nizam in 1902.
Assails CurzOn Tactics.
Three years ago the NiZam de-
manded the retroceSsiOn of the prov
ince, stating that Lord Curzon took
advantage of my shy and nervous dis
position and by using undue pressure
obtained the valuable province for a
song"
When his claim was rejected, he
raised the important issue that the
British government had no right to
pronounce judgment in such a con-
troversy, since his government and
the British government stood on the
same plane. thus questioning the
whole theory of British supremacy in
India.
This issue, raised by the most pow
erful potentate in the empire, might
have serious Consequences. and for
this reason 1t is asserted the India
