RADIO ASSISTS U. S.
FISHERIES BUREAU
0'Malley Keeps in Touch With
Office, Though Thousands Of
Miles. Away on Ship.

NOME, Alaska P).-A Summer in
Alaskan waters found Henry oMalley,
commissioner of the Bureau of Fish
cries, divorced from his Office by many
thousands of miles, but In constant
touch by radio
The radio is part of the special equip
ment of the vessel In which he cruised
in fishery districts. Through it he kept
in contact with canneries, with Federal
stations and with Washington.
Radio has become such an integral
part OF the fishery industry that Yegu-
lations drawn up in Washington are in
effect within 48 hours even in the most
remote points of Alaskan fishing areas.
Short-wave sets have been used by
several companies for communication
between plants and Seattle headquac-
ters, and the Federal Radio Commission
has been urgently requested to allow
more organizations the privilege OF es-
tablishing wireless connections.
The commission has taken the stand
that 1t would be illegal to grant ali
rights to any corporation for private
use. and all radio messages from Alaska
canneries to mainland cities are trans
mitted by combination OF radio, cable
and telegraph.
Radio has placed itself solidly with
fisher folk from the rockbound coast OF
Gloucester to Alaska's chill waters.
Prices, weather forecasts, best markets
for catches and areas in which largest
hauls are being made are broadcast
and many fishing communities radio to
the vessels information regarding the
families Of the fishermen.
Fishing dories are called back to the
mother ship or guided in different d.
AL sl- ANy u 10
In some cases, where dories have. strayed
from the fleet, word is radioed to all
ships to keep a sharp lookout, and many
lives have been saved.

VOTERS SERVICE RADIO
PROGRAMS TO CONTINUE
Political Developments to Be Broad

Months of 1880.

The voters Service" programs, deal
ing with political developments, which
became a popular weekly radio feature
Of the 1928 campaign, and which were
continued during the first six months
OF 1929. are to be resumed in 1880.
Inauguration of the third series of
"Voters' Service" programs, sponsored
jointly by the National League of
Woman Voters and the National Broad
casting Co., is scheduled for January Z.
Preliminary plans, mapped out by the
leagues radio committee, of which Miss
Katharine Ludington of New York City
is chairman, provide for the discussion
of major developments in the political
world, and particularly the new eco
nomic trends and their influence on
government. Foreign affairs, new as
poets of the tariff, the pros and cons of
government regulation of business, and
the new commissions appointed by Pres
ident Hoover are slated topics for early
presentation in the f1ve-month series Of

Forty of the best known radio fea-
lures in the country will be presented
in the crystal studio at the Radio
by the National Broadcasting Co. dur
ing the six days Of the big radio snow,
which begins tomorrow.
The entertainers and actors in many
of the programs will be costumed, and
an effort will be made to present num-
Der of the dramatic programs in much
the same manner as short plays and
sketches are put on In theater.
The crystal studio, one Of the out
standing features of the Radio Worlds
Fair, is. so arranged that visitors MAY
watch the radio entertainers at work
before the microphone and hear their
voices as they go on the air. Such
nationally famous programs as Real

%HE practicability Of a definite
schedule for the exchange
of radio programs between


~ the United States and Great
with each experiment In rebroad-
casting.
One thing the experiments have
clearly established, Is the impor-
lance OF time. 1t has been def
nitely determined that while re-
ception from England on certain
wave band may not be possible at
8 o'clock in the morning, 1t might
be nearly ideal on that same wave
channel at 5 o'clock in the after
noon.
C. w. Horn, general engineer Of
the National Broadcasting Co.,
who has supervised the rebroad-
cast tests, points out, however,
that the ultimate goal of perfec-
ton is yet far away.
Solve Many of Problems.
Nevertheless" said Horn, I'VE
have solved many of the problems
and our experiments are hecom-
ing more fruitful each day. These
experiments will be continued un-
til we can give American listeners
events of international interest
with customary good quality"
Rebroadcasting tests have been
conducted for the last two years
and during this long experimental
period, four British programs
were put on the air, each with
more success than the one before.
In these tests the N. B. c. had the
full cooperation of the British
Broadcasting Co.
Horn explained that a "heavy
air pressure area" over the At
lantic, which varies during the
day and night, has decided eff
feet on radio signals. Just how
this effect can be utilized to best
advantage has not been fully de-
termined, but the solution surely
cannot be very far away, now that
the condition has been discovered.

At the present site of the sta
ton on a hill above East Pitts
burgh, it has been found difficult
to effect complete shielding be-
tween the regular tranSmitter and
the short wave tranSnitters, all
of which are located in one build
ing. Although every effort has
been made to keep the sets from
interfering, 1t has been found i'm
possible to work them to the ut
most efficiency.
Another problem caused by the
presence of several sets in the one
location is that Of congestion of

Detroit's Unusual Radio Story.
The prize for the most unusual
radio story of the year goes to
Detroit. According to reports from
that city q test under practical
dairying conditions Of providing
radio music for cows has proved a
big success.
A creamery company, It was
said, purchased loud speakers for
it's barns when the cows showed
an indication Of liking music from
receiving set installed to enter
tain the EMPLOYEES doing the milk
ing. Now all the 900 cows in the
barns are enjoying radio pro-
grams.
The reports quote the farm vet
erinarian as explaining that the
radio music has increased milk
production as it takes the cows
attention away from the milking
process. The cows, it was said, like
soft, slow music best.
Radio Pierces Rock.
Proof that radio waves can
pierce solid rock seems to have
been established concluSively by

In both tunnel and cave, 'scien-
lists discovered that low frequency
signals came in plain, although

COOK COUNTY COMMISSIONERS SHOULD APPROPRIATE
ADEQUATE sum FOR LIQUOR LAW ENFORCEMENT
Would Be Stroke of Real Economy

The press reports that Cook County is
virtually bankrupt, hence will probably
cut the impending 1880 budget by several
million dollars.
There is one item in the budget which
should be materially increased and that
is the amount set apart for investigation
and prosecution of law violators.
According to a survey made public by
the Juvenile Protective Association, in
vestigations just completed show that in
toxicating liquor could be purchased in
142 of the III roadhouses and similar re-
sorts visited. This is, indeed, lament
able condition. There isn't any good rea-
son why the County Board should not
appropriate an adequate sum, as they are
admonished to do SO by the express pro-
visions (Sec. 26) of the Illinois Prohibi-
ton act, to obtain evidence against these
places which are such menace to the
youth of our country, SO that they may
be prosecuted, and closed as nuiSances.
If the Board of Commissioners will
make such an appropriation, and prose-
cutions are reasonably successful, a good
name for the Cook County law and order
can be established and the bootleggers
can be made to pay for the cleanup It
need not cost the taxpayers cent. Forty
three Illinois counties spent SAT $4,000 for
law enforcement in 1923 and collected
$3O0,811o0. All taxpayers who have the
moral welfare of the county at heart
should insist that the Board make such
an appropriation for the ensuing year.

The provision of the Illinois Statutes in
aid of prohibition law enforcement to
which too little attention has been paid, is
Chapter 121, section 226 ID, Of CahilPs
Revised Statutes. 1t provides Qtallcs
ourS):

licemen, if and when appointed, have
power and it is their special duty to en-
force the provisions of the Motor Vehicle
Law; and of Article VIII of An Act to
revise the law in relation to roads and

provision of the law so far as the en-
forcement of the Illinois Prohibition act
is concerned.

STATE HIGHWAY POLICE SHOULD AID PROHIBITION
LAW ENFORCEMENT

highway policemen would go far toward
preventing the bringing Of intoxicating
liquors into many OF our municipalities.
Main highways are used by hi2h-poWered
cars that make regular trips from the
more populous centers Gn and outside the
state) into the dryer sections to thwart
and block the good law enforcement work
of states attorneys and other officials.
Moreover, if the highway police officers
would assist in this phase Of enforcement
they would add materially to the enforce
ment of all traffic laws and make all their
work. much easier and more efficient.
For example it is ridiculous to spend
time and money arresting, incarcerating,
and prosecuting drunken drivers, duties of
the highway police, while making no eff
fort to get at the source of the offense-
illicit liquor traffic. It ought not to be
difficult for officers who are on the high
ways constantly, to obtain information as
to the source and destination Of automo-
biles and trucks engaged in violating the
laws of the state by transporting intoxi-
eating liquors.

JULY CONFERENCE
ON DEBTS LOOMS
Second Farley in Switzerland Elk.
pected on Reparations
Settlement.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
PARIS, June 25.-A conference oil
the powers interested in the repara-
tions settlement probably will oper
some time about July IS, 1t was thought
in official French circles today.
Switzerland, it was believed, would
be chosen as the neutral ground fol
the negotiations, which would have as
their object substitution of the Young
plan for the Dawes settlement, and
evacuation of the Rhineland.
Probably also included on the agenda
of the conference will be the question
of disposal of the Saar Coal Basin and
the Reich mandate for some former
German colonies. 1t was understood
here these questions would come UP
despite official German statements to
the contrary.
1t was recalled that neither the Saar
Basin nor the German colonies was
mentioned in the agreement at Geneva
from which the conference of experts
on reparations proceeded.
DR.. Gustav Stresefnann's remarks to
the Reichstag yesterday concerning the
temporary character of the Young plan
was interpreted in official circles as
having been made for purely interior
consumption. There were no apprehen-
ment for the application of the ex-
perts' recommendations.
AS for the Reich's mandates, it was
pointed out there were none vacant
according to the terms Of the treaty
of Versailles, and that nobody thus
far was showing any desire to make
them vacant, and until they did there
seemed no way to satisfy Germany's
desire to recover her old colonies.
