CAPITAL STATION
GETS HOOVER COPY
Radio on Maryland Hits
Pocket Which SkipS Over
San Diego.

prompt and efficient receipts in Wash

be remarkable or unprecedented IN TINS
day of radio progress but it Is a Strlk-
ing example of the maneuver ability OF
Navy high-frequency radio equipment.
That is what was accomplished by the
battleship Maryland, hardly out OF
port with President-elect Hoover, dur
ing the early morning hours of Wednes-
day, when strange atmospheric phe-
nomenon prevented contact With the
Navy stations at San Diego and Balboa.
While rounding Lower California late
Tuesday night the Maryland endeav-
ored to transmit to Navy radio station
NPL. San Diego, Radio central in
Washington, which always monitors
communications. detected unforeseen
trouble when the ship got into radio
pocket" which made reception at San
Diego impossible. but did not impair
the quality of the short-wave signals
to Washington. 1t Immediately told
the Maryland to go ahead with its
sending, and from about IL o'clock
Tuesday night until daylight Wednes-
day morning direct communication
over the steadily widening gap between
the travelling ship and Washington was
maintained.
The newspaper correspondents aboard
the battleShip were enabled to cover"
their assignments through the alert
ness of the communications officer and
their prompt adjustment to the ener-
gency. And, by the same token, the
American people were enabled to keep
abreast of the progress of the PreSi-
dent-elect's goodwill tour.
The sudden mishap of the Maryland
in entering the pocket is not start
ling, although it was unsuspected. Such
things occur frequently in short wave
transmissions because of the ability of
short waves to skip" over wide eX-
panSes before their reception is possi-

mitting on about $500 kilocycles (40
meters), the signals skipped high in the

radio signals, of course, is almost in

There is nothing new. remarkable or
unprecedented about this" said Capt.
S. c. Hooper, chief of naval commune
cations, but it shows what Navy
ship can do with the latest type of

cleaned from any contacts made with
either the Maryland or the battleshlp
Utah while they are on the west coast
of South America, Capt. Hooper de-
ciareS.
The Navy has never had high ire
quency contact with vessels on the far
coast of It's sister continent and mas
much as these ships have the latest
type of short-wave equipment, the tests
should provide valuable contributions
to the store of knowledge on this phase
of radio. The lesson to be learned. ac-
cording to Capt Hooper, is the ability
of short waves to get over the Andes
Mountains, among the highest in the
world. Long wave or low frequency
experiments conducted several years
ago showed that these waves are un-
able to overcome the great natural bar
rier of the Andes and reach across the
5,000-mile span of ether to the east
coast of the United States.

MERGER IN MAKING

The public service commission is
expecting soon the appearance Of
a petition asking its sanction Of a
proposed merger of the Terra
Haute, Indianapolis g. Eastern
Traction and subsidiary companies
with properties of the Central In
diana Power Company.
The merger will represent around
$7O,0O0,OOO, as the traction company
and it's subsidiaries are valued az
$35,0OO,OOO and the power utility the
same.
It will mean the merging Of
insult interests in Indiana if the
plans are approved.
Reports from the Chicago offices
of Samuel insult, Jr., are that tenta-
tive approval of the consolidation
already has been given by a ma
jority of the stockholders in the
Indiana concerns, who will receive
cumulative preferred stock in the
Indiana Electric Corporation for
their holdings.
