The Bell Telephone Laboratories
Radio Station at Whippany, N. j.. was
the link between the plane, which was
flying over New Brunswick, N. j., at
speed of 95 miles an hour, and the land
telephone lines leading to listening
post in New York and to the convention
in Minneapolis. There loudspeakers
made the aviator's voice audible to the
thousand assembled pioneers.
incidentally. Capt Brooks notified J.
S. McCulloh, president of the New York
Telephone Co, of his election as presi-
dent of the pioneers. Mr.. McCulloh ac-
cepted by telephone from his New York
ONCE, with both the airplane and The
convention listening in.
In his address to the convention Capt.
Brooks said:
I'VE are flying q five-place cabin
monoplane. which we have converted
into a flying laboratory for making all
sorts of radio measurements in the air.
Our fundamental investigations are still
going on, but few months ago we
reached a point where our engineers
could design the radio sets which l
have in the plane now.
I'VE have a very sensitive receiving
set. small and compact and weighing
less than 10 pounds. Our transmitting
equipment Is also very compact and
weighs about 20 pounds.
"Our communication with you is by
radio to our station at Whippany, N. j.,
and thence through the long lines OF
1.-The Bell system to you at Minneapolis.
Capt Brooks used a special micro
phone, which excluded the noise OF the
airplane. At one point. he held the
microphone so that his listeners could
hear the terrific roar of the engine.
The plane used by Capt. Brooks was
the flying radio laboratory Of the Bell
laboratories.

BAN ON DOWNTOWN
PARKING OPPOSED
Business Area Would Be A.
fected Seriously, Says Head
of Trade Group.

Opposition to the prohibition Of
downtown parking on the grounds that
it would drive away business was ex-
pressed last night by Maj. Gen. Anton
Stephan, president of the Merchants
and Manufacturers Association. in an
address broadcast by Station WMAL.
Because of wide streets here, Gen.
Stephan declared, automobiles standing
at the curb do not interfere with the
rapid and smooth flow of trafic. Linz
tied parking. he said, should be per-
mitted to allow patrons a reasonable
time to transact business and the ma
jority of parkers are satisfied with an
hour limitation.
The trade body president called at
tention to the gradual movement OF
business from the downtown area to
the outlying sections and attributed
it to the parking difficulties in the con-
gested district. He said that II down.
town parking were prohibited irrepara-
BILE damage would be done and the value
of property in that section greatly
diminished.
There are more than 10000 automo-
biles registered in Washington and
10000 cars enter the city daily, Gen.
Stephan asserted.

Chinese Army Paymaster Stays His
Seventh Daughter.

Tragic evidence that efforts Of the

of Chinese women have not succeeded
entirely in changing the low estimation
in which girl children have additionally

Ming asien, retired army paynlaster In
fairly comfortable circumstances, had
had six daughters, but no son. When
a seventh addition to the family was
expected, prayers were offered at the
local temples that he might at last be
blessed with a male heir to worship his
spirit after he was dead. Unhappily
it proved to be a girl again. and in a

People, Not Cars, Give Prestige

nv automobile can endow its
owner with prestige. But people
can give an automobile prestige.
The rapidly growing public accept
ance for the Auburn car elevates it
to a position of unquestioned em-
inence today. In fact SO great is the
public's confidence in Auburn's
value and SO great its preference
for Auburn's exclusive distinction,
that we are again warranted in en-
larging our plant facilities and
in making plans for even larger
Auburn production Immediately.
This growth is not accidental.
There must be a definite reason for
it. And that reason is the prestige
that Auburn owners are giving to
the Auburn car.
We have always tried to avoid the
superlative; tried not to boast. But
we have made claims; strong, sweep
ing, unqualified claims. Invariably
however we have attached rider
to our claims. For example, today
we claim the Auburn cars give
greater value, longer wheelbase,
stronger frames, more power, easier
handling, finer performance,great
safety, comfort and endurance
THAN ANY OTHER CAR FOR
THE MONEY.
What is the rider? Simply this:

That the United States is in

stance of Admiral Bradley A. tiske' )
article, How British Guile Scuttled
Our Navy" to be published in the
February issue of Plain Talk.
Calling the 1922 limitation of
armament conference. which was So
widely applauded at the time.
great blInder of craftsmanship, Ad-
miral Fiske says in his Plain Talk
article that with the purest inten-
tions in the world we have allowed
ourselves to be caioled into giving
up not only ouV naval supremacy
on the sea. but also the only con.
siderable base we had in all the
world. the Philippine Islands. For
let us req lie frankly that our agree
ing not to increase the wholly in
adequate defenSes of the Philippine
Islands has made it not only pos
sible but easy for Japan to capture
them whenever she wishes"
L. $. Outwitted
Admiral Fiske claims that the
United States was inVeigIed into
calling the limitation of armament
conference by British propaganda
and that we played right into the
hands of English and japanese dip
lonats. allowing them to come off
with an advantage so great that 1t
has been aptly termed "Britain's
greatest naval victory"
The conference was really be
tween two parties Great Britain
and Japan being allies and working
together) Admiral Fiske writes, and
the natural result was that the de-
ciSion was to the disadvantage of
the United States and to the adj
vantage Of Great Britain and Japan.
The major parts of the de
cision were two in number" accord
ing to Admiral Fiske.
"One part was the voluntary
abnegation by the United States Of
her Naval superiority over Great
Britain and Jajan, substitution of
parity with Great Britain and
) to 3 ratio with Japan.
The other major part Of the de-
cision was an agreement by the
United States not to make any
further improvements in the de-
lenses OF the Philippine Islands or
TO increase their capacity as d
naval base.
L. s. Wiped Out
This wiped out the United States
as the principal rival of Britain on
the sea to degree that Americans
do not realize. Mr.. BaIfour was
promptly created an earl and a
Knight of the Garter. The reward
was wholly inadequate to his
deserts. There was no reward posi-
BILE on this earth that would have
been even approximately adequate
for a triumph of diplomacy so
magnificent and complete, so clearly
implicit in the assurance Of the
perpetuation of Britains empire
on the sea.

FOLLOWS
HEAVY
WORK

With but seven weeks of it's So
called lame duck" session remain
ing, the Senate today was facing
a legislative jam Of real proportions
while the House was prepared to
coast along easily until the final
bell before Inauguration on March 4.
Enactment Of legislation Of ex.
traordinary Importance but fewer
additions to the statute books than
usual was in prospect as result
of the great difference in the con-
dition of the calendars of the two
houses.
The Senate not only had tn"
troublesome Kellogg multilateral
treaty and the lJ-cruiseF bill on it's
hands, but has pending the ,on-
firma ton of Secretary of Interior
Roy O. West. confirmation of mem
bers of the Federal Radio Commits
sion, the Hoover prohibition in
Vestigation, reaprortiOnment, coal
and radio legislation, CarawaY anti
cotton gambling bill. the Nicaraguan
Canal route survey, and scores of
other measures of lesser importance.
The House, having disposed of
some Of the most important of the
annual supply bills. which will total
more than $4,000, 900, 900, and the
Fem reapportionment bill, was
casting about for other measures
upon which to center its attention.
Praise Dam Bill
Leaders of both Houses. however,
were ready to acclaim the accom-
plishments Of the Senate in dispos-
ing of the $16j 900 900 Boulder Can
yon Dam b:ll, which ended a seven
year fight, and passage in the House
of reapportionment legislation, which
has heen under discussion for eight
years.

without consideration of an i'm
