AS 2XBH is to be a portable sta
ton, it may be used as a pickup
unit for WCGU. In this capacity the
station could be installed on moving
objects such as a train or yacht
where the usual telephone hook-up is
impractical. In this way parades,
races, or any aquatic events may be
transmitted by the shortwave set and
picked up by WCGU and rebroad-
casted.

A new station has recently joined
the ranks of shortwave broadcasters.
1t is station WCGU. of New York,
which has been licensed by the radio
commission to transmit on 81 meters
under the call letters of 2XBH. The
plan is to use the short wave trans

Hid Surplus Coin in
Jars of Baked Clay

One Of the most interesting items
In coin bank collection is an ancient
"botijuela' or baked clay jar about
foot high obtained from San Juan,
Porto Rico. 1t is round in shape and
with an opening of about two or three
inches in diameter. 1t was brought to
Porto Rico from Seville and Cadiz
during the colonization period Of the
island and served for a long time for
the carrying of olive oil. Later, they
were used by families; in the homes
Of the poor to carry water from the
broOklets and rivers. and in the homes
Of the rich to store money. When
filed with gold and silver coins, q
cork or wooden stopper was put in
them and then sealed with sealing
wax. After this they buried the "boti-
Juelas" in the ground or hid them In
the ceilings Of their homes.
The custom was brought over from
Spain, where money was also buried
IN the ground. The use OF the "botl-
juela" in Porto Rico started about the
middle Of the Sixteenth century, when

ANTI-LYNCH CHURCH APP
PEAL
Salem Day Sunday" Observance
June 18th to Call for Abolition
Of Mob Murder

Boston, Mass, June 8.-As a TT
ting public finale to the nationwide
public celebrations on June 18th of
Salem Race Day." in honor of Peter
Salem, Salem Poor and the other coli
ored soldiers at the Battle of Bunker
Hill, way back in Tvs, with resolu-
tons to be adopted and sent to Presi-
dent Coolidge for the anti-lynchinR
bill and against federal segregation,
the National Equal Rights League has
just issued an appeal to all race pas
tors to make June 10Th salem Day
Sunday by special prayers for deliv-
erance and church resolutions Of ap-
peal to nation and government for an
end to lynching and segregation to be
signed by church officers and sent to
President Coolidge and given to the
press.
The first part Of this nationwide
stroke against these two major evils
will begin, and also end, according to
the leagues request, with official reso-
lutions to the president by fraternal
lodges at their most convenient meet
ing in June before or after the 18th.
With the civic observances, the one
in Boston to cover two days, with the
church and lodge resolutions and those
by other bodies, strong lombard
ment can be made Of the White House
and good blow struck. The league,
which supplies historical leaflets post
paid from 9 Cornhill for six cents in
stamps, also asks that copies Of all
resolutions with addresses Of officials
and promoters of celebrations be sent
to it to be later carried to the White
House in bulk as united race pro-
test and appeal.
