NORE ON SANTA AIIA

(Continued from Page Threel
 Central by the Santa Ana was built of wood, cleverly painted over to make it appear like an iron locomotive to fool the public.
 AS the Santa Ana tied up at the Valdez dock, that landing place and the approach to it extending for half mile back to Mckinley avenue were mill- ing masses of thousands of peo- pie, attracted there to see the wooden locomotive" and throw it in the bay. Captain Schage de- clared that no less than 100 men promptly jumped from the wharf to the deck of the boat, before the lines were fast, and with their pocket knives began excited ly whiting at the locomotive, in efforts to prove that it really was wood.
 Then the word passed silently among the throngs that it was a genuine locomotive, mo fool ing Within an hour they went away from that place, and the wharf was soon alive with the goods of several merchants in Valdez who hastily loaded their stocks for the new terminal city of Seward.
 That pioneer locomotive, the old familiar No. 1 of the Alaska Central, is still in use by the government owned Alaska Rail- road, successor to the Alaska Central, in hauling passenger trains both ways over the sec- tion of the main line between Nenana and Fairbanks
 The Santa Ana was built at Coos Bay, Oregon, in 1900, by H R. Reed & Son, especially for the Alaska trade. It was owned and operated on Alaska routes by the Alaska Clipper Line, the Northwestern Steamship Com pany, and lastly by the Santa Ana Steamship Company. Ii called at every port in southern Alaska at different times thru all the years from 1900 to the present day. It is 1924 feet over all, with beam of 30.2 feet anc depth of 12.4 feet
 Like the Mayflower, of New England's early beginnings, the Santa Ana was a pioneer that made big place in history It will be remembered in Sew ard and Alaska as long as theil | annals are read by the genera tions of the future.

FIND LONG WAVES

Radio Commission Engineer
Reports on Observations
Made in Europe.
BY MARTIN CODEL.

While broadcasting in America is
confined to the intermediate wave
lengths of the radio spectrum, Europe
oroadcasts also on the low frequencies,
or long waves, with good results, &C
cordinR to Gerald C. Gross, engineer OF
the Federal Radio Commission, who has
Just returned from q radio inspection
tour of Europe.
Mr.. Gross was ordered by the COM
mission to remain in Europe after the
Technical Radio Conference at The
Hague, to which he was delegate, in
order to study the aerohautical radio
systems of the various countries. His
assignment took him on flights over the
airWays of England, France, Holland,
Belgium and Germany. His reports are
expected to be OF great value to the
newly developing American Always rA-
do systems.
During stopovers Mr.. Gross improved
his time by tuningin various Continen-
tai broadcasting stations on small
portable receiver Of German manufac-
ture. He found that, besides using the
same band of wave lengths used on this
continent for program radio. European
stations also employ the long waves
from 1900 to 1870 kilocycles (ls4 to
224 meters).

such reliable long-range service with
high power. DR.. Taylor also suggested
that at least part of the present Ameri-
can broadcasting band be reserved for
aeronautical radio because OF its greater
suitability.

mission, but he did state that he found
the European airways emphasizing the
medium and low frequencies; that Is,

limits of the American broadcaSttng

experts greeted with surprise his state.
ments about the extensive use OF snort
waves being made for aviation purposes
in this country.
All the major European airwayS have
radio systems for transmitting and re-
ceiving voice reports to and from air
planes in flight, Mr.. Gross reported.
The most modern planes built and being
built in Europe, he added, are being
fitted with radio operators compart-
ments, so that the operator, whose sole
task is to keep the plane in constant
communication with land, may 60 about
his duties undisturbed.
BedsprinSs for Antenna.
With his broadcasting receiver,

the size of q pint milk bottle, contain
ing the elements of three ordinary tubes,
Mr.. Gross said he was able to listen
to programs on the long, the intermedi-
ate, and even the short waves. He used
four sets of coils in the set. The bed
springs at hotels served as antenna;
radiators served as grounds.
In the normal broadcasting band Eu-
rope is experiencing dif1culty with the

country uses 10-kilocycle separation.
