Decision has not been reached as to whether the debris left by the slide on the Thane road can be re- moved and the structures replaced at the present time, M D. Williams, Supervising Engineer for the U. s Bureau of Public Roads, said this morning. He spent some time viewing the results of the slide yesterday and said that the great est apparent damage is the loss of one bridge and considerable in- crease of the channel which this bridge spanned.
 It is doubtful whether the Bu- reau will be able to reconstruct the bridge at this time, even though the slide might be removed from the road, MT. Williams said.

Papered Truck Patch.

Government plant experts are en-
gagged in a thorough test Of the paper
mulch" which has been used expert
mentally in some locations with a con-
siderable degree of success. The paper
mulch was first suggested by Hawci-
ian pineapple grower, who covered the
ground with an impregnated paper
which permitted the shoots to flnd
their way through but entirely sup
pressed the weeds that usually grew
between the plants and which Slapped
the ground Of its vitality. In this in
stance it was great success as well
as on some small truck patches where
the experiment has been tried in Diff
ferent parts Of the country. The Gov
eminent experts, however, will not
make an official report on the subject
until they have tried it out thoroughly
and have conducted experiments with
the different kinds Of paper which
have been offered as suitable.

say.
There are two obstacles in the FEAST
bility Of underground radio-penetra-
ton Of the earth by the waves and de-
signing q set which, while light, will be
powerful enough to receive the feeble
signals after penetration.
Received at Some Depth.
Although signals have been received
at some depth in mines in the eastern
part of the country, it was suspected
they were carried into the mine through
open shafts and over the wiring and
piping systems. Actual penetration of
strata was thus drowned out by signals
received from shaft and metallic con-
ductorS.
In Colorado and other Western
States, however, there was considerable
evidence of actual penetration of the
earth. The States in which that &C.
CURED have an arid climate, which
means a dry overburden and constant
increase in radio penetration, engineers
say.
But it is believed the penetration is
not strong enough to permit the use of
sufficiently simple and light receivers
to allow even one-way communication
in rescue work where speed and port
ability are essential.
The engineers also found that the
apparatus required for transmitting
messages out Of the mine would be so
cumbersome that 1t would be virtually
useless in rescue work.

While the use of radio on land, at
