PERMANENT SERVICE
IN TELEWSION SOUGHT
Application for Short-Wave Band
of Frequencies Made to
Commission.

Permanent television service will be
given "lookers-in" by WNAC, Boston,
if the Federal Radio Commission
grants an application for short wave
band Of frequencies.
John Shepard, president of the
Shepard Norwell Co. which operates
the station, has told the commission
that the station proposes to synchronize
visual and audible broadcasting. He
says pictures of an orchestra leader
directing his orchestra would be trans
mitted by short waves for reception by
special televisor equipment while the
loud speaker would bring in the music.
The station has applied for band
of trequencies 100 kilocycles wide in
the vicinity of 5000 kilocycles. Later
it is hoped to reduce the width to 10
kilocycles, the same sized channel now
used for audible broadcasting. Power
of 1000 watts is requested.
Frank L. Carter. radio amateur Of
Long Island City, N. Y. has asked the
commission for permission to convert
his amateur short wave station to an
experimental television station.
Another applicant for an expert
mental license is A. E. Smith. chief of
the technical laboratory of the Aero
Products Co. of Chicago. Mr.. Smith
told the commission that televiSion has
not reached the practicable stage and
the object of his company is to expert
ment within the laboratory and if the
results seem to warrant to put 1t in
service operation.

SIS RADIO BEACONS
ARE IN OPERATION
Eighteen Installed Last Year
Lighthouse Commissioner Re-
veals in Report.

Among the widespread activities OF
the Government to promote the safety
of those VINO go down to the sea in
ships the radio beacon is playing an
increasingly important part.
From Alaska to the Gulf of Mexico
and from Maine to far-off Samoa, the
radio beacons and the beacon lights of
the United States Lighthouse Service
flash their warning signals to the ap-
preaching mariner. The service now
operates SIS radio beacons among its
18,6OO aids to marine navigation,
George r. Putnam, commissioner OF
lighthouses, says in his annual report.
During the last year 18 radio bea-
cons were installed by the Lighthouse
Service and IL additional installations
are in progress. One of the new bea-
cons is semi-automatic. operated by a
clock device, the first of its kind estab-
lished. During the last year radio bea-
con systems for inside coast traffic were
installed on Long Island Sound for the
use of vessels on the inside route be-
tween New York and Boston and In
Chesapeake Bay.
Tests were conducted with the view
of eliminating interference between
radio beacon stations on the Great
Lakes and to ascertain the best ar
rangements of radio beacon codes. AS
result of these tests satisfactory
changes have been made, Commissioner
Putnam says The beacons have proved
particularly valuable on the lakes as
direction finders during heavy fogs,
many commercial ship pilots attesting
to the aid received in emergencies.

PLAYLET IS BEST
IN RADIO PROTESTS
Indignant Physician Makes
Satan Final Host to Five
on Board.

Expressions of opinion as to the ef-
feet of the radio ''makeOvcr' upon re-
ception trickles into the Federal Radio
Commission in astonishing forms and in
varied ways, but DR. Malcolm Dean
Miller of Akron. Ohio, has smitten that
august body with a literary gem that
leads all the rest. Without introduction
or preface the physician gives vent to
his disfavor Of tbs new Set-up in a
playlet he calls Making the Punish
ment Fit the Crime, and in which the
commission, St Peter and Satan play
the roles.
Here it is:
"Scene-Gate of Hc~.~n. Five gen.
tlemen approach tha ate.
"St. Peter-Who are Y a.?
The Five-We are The Federal Radio
Commission.
st. Peter-You can't come in here.
You belong down below for making a
mess of the radio situation.
"Scene-Tho gate of he'll. The five
approach.
you were coming. Come right in. We
can fix you up nicely here. We will
strap headphones to your heads and
make you listen to WYZ ca station con-
sistently off course and chockful of
heterodyneS and Squeals in addition to
its punk programs) for all eternity.
The Five-Oh, no. Satan! The
Constitution forbids the infliction Of
cruel and unusual punishments.
"Satan-The Constitution does not
apply here. You can oven have drink
if you want it. But the sentence
stands Come right in, gentlemen!
THE five enter, wringing their hands
and weeping"
On the serious side of the ALLEGATION,
TO express the composite view of the
four commissioners who voted the plan
and the engineers who recommended it,
radio has been cleaned up and now
needs only a polishing over to make an
actuality Of the scientific plan as
worked out on paper. They hold this
view after having scanned both expert
and listener reports since November II.
Practically all the current interference
and listener unrest is caused by wobbling
Of stations from their assigned fire.
Quencies, they claim, and once this is
cleaned up the real effect of the re-
alignment, nationally. will be enjoyed
An analysis of the complaints re-
ceived shows that almost invariably
they deal with local cases of station
interference, with comparatively little
general protest against the plan as a
whole. Many messages pay glowing
tribute to the reallocation For ex-
ample, George w. Phillips of Oakland,
Calf, wires, May God bless you for
what you have done for KTAB" (Oak-
land). adding that all listeners there
are grateful for the improved service.
Commissioner Caldwell'S own version
is that the commission has made the
best of radio under the great handicap
of the Davis equalization amendment
which, he says, brings much unneceS-
sary hardship to certain sections of the
country, while in other sections, like
the Pacific Coast, wave lengths stand
idle I'm other words" he asserts,
with the radio listeners literally
handed a lemon in the equalization
clause calling for redistribution of wave
lengths according to population. the
commission has. undertaken to turn it
into lemonade for the listeners"

"AGENTS" WILL APPEAR
 AT LIQUOR HEARINGS
County Detective Explains Their Ab- sonce From Police Court At
 Session Last Week

"The reason the states witnesses were not on hand last week was that nobody but myself knew where to get in touch with them, but they will be in New Britain police court Saturday morning." said County De- tective Edward J. Hickey this after- noon, offering the first explanation that has been made of the sensa- tlonal failure of the "agents' who obtained evidence on which a dozen arrests for violation of the liquor law were made in this city, to pre- sent themselves when the hearings were scheduled. Numerous reports were spread concerning the failure of the agents to appear. among them being story that they had been bought off, but apparently there was no foundation in fact for the rumor.
 T had expected to be back in Hartford in time and when I did not return. nobody communicated with the witnesses because they did not know where to look for them, but 50 far as l know at this time, they will be in court Saturday." Detective l Hickey said.
 The local police had heard moth. ing from the states attorneys of ! fee relative to the cases up to this afternoon.
