500 RevoIutionists
Killed In Mexico In \
The Past Few Weeks

MEXICO CITY, Jan. 22.-lP)-With
total unofficially estimated - of 500
revolutionists killed during the past
few weeks by federal soldiers engaged
in suppressing the uprisings in vari-
Gus parts of the republic, war depart
ment reports indicate that the gov
ernmenS is showing clemency to many
others who abandoned their arms, de-
clared loyalty to the administration
and repudiated the revolution. 1t is
indicated however, that some of the
rebel leaders are likely to suffer con-
fiscation of their property, which is
authorized under DEGREES of former
years, although rarely enforced of
late.
Some armed bands opposing the gov
ernment continue their operations here
and there, but the military authorities
insist that they have been reduced to
trivial proportions.

NORWAY SEASON SHORT.
Long Summer Daylight Period
Makes Reception Poor.

The radio season is very short in
Norway; the Summer period of day
light is so long reception is poor over
greater period than in many coun-
tries. Furthermore the economic de-
preston following strikes in several
industries has dulled both general
business and sales of radio apparatus.
Consul General Snyder reports from
Oslo.
Crystal sets are used quite exten.
sively in Olso and Bergen for local
reception, but in some districts small
tube sets prove almost useless, the
distances are so great. the deadening
effect of the surrounding mountains
IS so detrimental and the fjords which
intersect the country, also interfere
with good reception. The 1.500-watt
Oslo station transmits on $40 meters
and the one at Bergen, rated at ] 900
watts, broadcasts on 46l meters.
