AS 1 had no illusions about what

I telegraphed my colleagues in Havre

Havre answered that he was named

to the staff of Gen. Won Bissifig. And

RECEPTION IN CALIFORNIA

The active press agents and real
estate men of California and Florida
have so bewildered the public with
their rival claims of the best climate,
best scenery, best soil, ETC., that one
hesitates to swallow any of the state
ments of these rival states without "a
grain of SALT
The latest, is the modest admission
from the state of California that it
has the best atmosphere for radio re-
ception, and that any station under
5000 miles distant is local" Whether
to accept this statement or not is a
problem for each individual reader
Whether he accepts it or not, he will
have to admit that these Californians
do get some pretty good results for
it is fact that a great number of
them span the Pacific regularly. In
fact, one station, KFRC, San Fran
cisco, developed the reception of
J0AK, Japan, so efficiently that it
was able to re-broadeast the japanese
program with reasonable clarity and
volume on the 268 wavelength for all
California to hear. The distance GOV.
cred was 5000 miles. JOAK is said
to broadcast with only 1000 watts.
Some of the notable California DIX
pioneers used to invite a number of
Japanese friends in to hear the pro-
gram from Toyko on the loudspeaker
at four a. H., and others recorded the
Japanese stations on phonograph
records. $40, at Melbourne, Australia,
is also heard regularly by the Pacific
coast listeners.
