OIL FINDERS SEEK
SHORT-WAVE BANDS
American Petroleum Indus.
try Asks Radio Board for
Use of Channels.
BY MARTIN CODEL.

The American petroleum industry has
renewed its plea for enough short
wave channels to conduct Oil explora-
tionS by radio.
This is one of the unique uses OF
radio, which Prof G. M. JanSky, jr.
the University of Michigan radio engi-
neer and the industry's consultant, has
stated is fast replacing the divining
rod and has already led to the discov-
cry of oil deposits in the Southwest
worth about $100,000000.
Prof, JaT1sky, jr., was one of the ex-
pertS from the industry and Govern
illent bureaus who testified before the
Federal Radio Commission Yesterday at
the hearing on applications for a series
OF high-frequency channels for geo.
physical prospecting. No real opposi-
tion to the, requests developed, but the
granting Of the waves test depends
largely upon the outcome of the con-
ference Of North American governments
in the appointment of the high-fre-
quency spectrum for continental uses.
This conference will be held in Ot-
tawa, Canada, at date yet to be ar
ranged between the State Department
and the other governments. It will
probably take place during the latter
part of this month or early In Decem-
ber, according to william r. Valance
assistant solicitor of the State Depart
ment. Radio officials OF Canada Cuba
Mexico and the United States will
participate.
Shortage Of Channels.
Because geophysical explorations
probably will be carried on in these
countries also, 1t Is expected that little
difficulty will be experienced by the
American interests In obtaining the
small allotment of channels for nom
exclusive use which they have sought
The chief drawback Is due to shortage
Of channels for the indispensable ship
to-shore and aircraft communication
services.
A point regarding possible interfer-
ence with communications services was
also raised by Lieut.. Comdr. D. A.
Craven. U. s. N, of the commission's &
technical staff, Prof. Jansky replied
that minimum of interference might
be expected from the use on only O
handful of freQuencies in the mobile

DISTANCE SEEKERS
CAUSE OF H0WLS
Heterodynes Are Blamed on Dial
Fishermen" Who Hunt
Over Air.

The radio reallocation, designed to do
away with heterodyning and other man
made interference, is acting as bait for
another kind of interference that Is
raising as much havoc as the stations
steering unsteady courses on their new
frequency assignments Anticipated re-
generative receivers and other types of
sets that in themselves are miniature
broadcaSting stations are setting up cat
howls and squawks that were not taken
into consideration by Federal radio en-
gineers.
Listeners who have been mystified
by these fugitive heterodynes, which
occur only intermittently, need not be
alarmed. according to engineers. This
type of interference, which differs from
the constant whistles caused by the
station heterodynes, will pe short lived.
Once the novelty of the lealignment of
stations wears off and the operators of
these inadvertent broadcaSting stations
are content to stay put on enc stations
program instead of romping around the
dial, it will again become normal
Now it is apparent that fishing ex-
petitions are being conducted on an
extensive scale by owners of the sets
that reradiate energy at every turn of
the dial. News Of the reallocation, with
its promised improvement of reception,
is sending all listeners after distance
They are not satisfied to listen to one
station for any length Of time, and
with the wanderlust that seems to have
beset the entire country, keep casting
about for new and distant stations.
The listeners owning The broadcast
ing sets interfere with the reception of
their neighborS every time they go sta
ticn hunting. These sets cause a whis-
tie up and down the scale as the oper-
ator is turning his dial In quest of
new station. If he tunes in accurately
and leaves his dial alone, he will not
reradiate the impulses But II his set
is left ff-frequency-that is "detuned"
it will cause the whistle.
Reports of good and bad radio under
the revised lineup persist. To make
an accurate appraisal of Nation wide
conditions is impossible at this time
because of the varying local and even
nelghborhood conditions caused by the
obsolete receiving SETS But the COM
mission engineers are confident that the
plan will work out even better than was
expected.
Every night will be a good night, /"
says the commissions chief engineer.
DR.. j. H. Dellinger. In the past we
have had to put up with good nights
and bad nights because of an unscien-
tlflc arrangement of stations and power
assignments. But by Increasing the
power OF stations during the Summer
months and during daylight we can
keep the level Of transmission UP to the
point where good service will be con-
tinuouS"

band between 1,5O0 and 5000 kilos with
very low power. It was also pointed out
that most prospecting is being done in
regions remote from radio stations.
The public utility point was brought
into this hearing. as in hearings on
other uses of short waves, by Judge
Ira E. Robinson of the radio board
The chairman of the commission again
expressed doubt whether the law au-
thorizes the commission to allot the
precious waves to private rather than
public service organizations.
This argument was indefinite1" an
swered in the testimony Of George Otis
Smith. director of the United States
Geological Survey. Without attempt
ing to pass upon the merits of indi-
vidual applications, DR.. Smith declared
that the public interest attaching to
the oil industry Is self-evident, and de-
clared that the Government is COM
mitted to a policy of cooperating with
the private industry in exploring oil
fields and extending new ones.
Rescue of Miners.
Memorandum from Scott Turner, di-
rector of the Bureau of Mines. to Secre-
tary of Commerce William F. Whiting
was introduced after being asked for
by DR.. Frederick w. Lee of the Bureau
of Mines. 1t called attention to the
necessity of securing an allotment OF
radio frequencies for geophysical pros
pecting and for experiments in the res
cue of entombed miners before all of
the practical radio bands had been
assigned to other uses. 49, r
"The easily found mineral deposits
both of metals and of oil and gas. nave
apnarently been located" Mr. Turner
stated in that portion of his report de-
scribing the way prospecting is done by
radio THE remaining deposits are
mostly those which are deeply covered
or of which the structures are OBJ
scured. 1t Is therefore, plain that
means for finding them other than the
method heretofore in use must be de-
veloped.
"The newer methods are known as
geophysical methods because they deal
with the physical characteristics of the
earth'S crust" Mr.. Turner continued
"The methods are becoming more and
more refined, and must continually be
improved. A number of these methods
depend on a signal from q central sta
ton which is received through the
earth at stations some distance away
The retardation or acceleration Of the
signals through the earth gives a clue
to the structures below. and thus to the
location of desired deposit, In order to
ascertain the retardation or accelera-
ton of the signals through the earth
use Is made of radio waves to signal
instantaneously to the various sta
tions. The radio signals are so nearly
instantaneous in their fight to the sta
tions that they make a good yardstick
for measuring the speed of the earth
waves"
Mr.. Turner then pointed out that BY
determining the location of structures
favorable to the occurrence of oil the
industry Is in a position to regulate
itself better and avoid wasted drilling

but he urged that no exclusive rights
be given to any organizations IN these
fields.
DR.. william Bowie. director Of the
Coast and Geodetic Survey, also teSti-
fed on scientific aspects of geophysical
explorations by such methods. Like his
colleagues in the Government service,
he did not indorse specific applications,
