Ne,o Dry Chief Says Law
 WiU Be His Only Guide
By E. E. BOMAR GA. P. Staff Writer)

BALTIMORE, July 16.-A lawyer, student, writer and bachelor is the New Director of Prohibition Enforcement, Amos Walter Wright Woodcock-but above all, he is a lawyer.
 United States District Attorney for Maryland since 1922, he will be guided by the law alone. he says, as chief administrator of America $ most argued legislation.
 Woodcock's record in Maryland, which has no state enforcement law, made him acceptable to pro- hibition leaders too, but he has made 1t clear in many addresses he never would go beyond the law to obtain a conviction He is per sonally dry.
 Born Oct, 29, 1883, at Salisbury, Md, in 1903 he was given a bache- Tor of arts degree by St. Johns col- lege at Annapolis. There for six years he taught mathematicsf at St. Johns and studied law at the University of Maryland, getting his degree in 1910. In 1912 he took his masters degree at Harvard.
 He is a Republican but not an ardent political worker.
 Woodcock's war record tells some thing of the man.
 Enlisting in 1917, he served in France as a member of Company I, First Maryland infantry, and then successively as captain, major, and lieutenant colonel in the 115th In- fantry. He is now a lieutenant colonel in the National Guard and o. R. c.

POINT BARROW. Alaska, July 16s-Ice conditions here are worse instead of better. Contrary winds have kept the ice in a pack and the warmest weather in two years is eating the shore ice full l.of holes but pressure behind fills the gaps. For several days a 20-mile off shore wind failed to make any im- rression or open a lead as former off shore winds have done before. Last year the first ship arrived July IS but none, so far this year.
 The village is empty of natives, scattered around seeking seals and other game to take the place of flour, sugar, coffee and other staples the stores are lacking.
 The natives are daily bringing in curios dug up from old igloos in hopes of trading them for little tobacco while the whites are forcssi to roll their own since the tailor made are gone.

 Most of his friends call him "Col- onel' because of his military bear ing, his war service and the fact that he is a former state com mander of the American Legion. Bald, except for fringe of hair, of medium stature and ready smile and pleasing voice, he makes friends quickly.
 Woodcocks social and family life is largely bound up with his old home at Salisbury, where his three sisters live. He seldom fails to visit there over the weekend.
 He maintains a bachelor apart ment here but uses it little for en- tertaining. Many of his evenings he devotes to reading and study.

 Although a native Ss Hungary, MT. Auer before coming to the United States in 1918, had lived in Russia 30 years during which time he was one of the outstanding figures in the musical life of the old capital, St. Petersburg, when that city was one of the prominent musical centers of Europe. Many honors were conferred upon him by the Czarist, government.

By c. E. BUTTERFIELD "A. P. Radio Editor)

NEW YORK, July 16.-National television on par with sound broadeasting is a considerable dis tance in the future.
 When such a development will materialize, engineers hesitate to say. Dr. Alfred N. Goldsmith, vice. president and general engineer of RIGA and long identified with broad cast engineering, thinks it will not be possible until three years have elapsed, and 1t may be longer.
 Tt seems likely that national tel evision service of proven value within year would be miracle" :" he said. Within two years it would be an amazing feat; within three years it would represent fine achievement of hard work, and within five years, it would be a development proceeding at a good and normal pace.
 If television is developed as a service of real entertainment and instructional value to the public it will take it's place beside radio broadcasting as one of the greatest agencies of human progress and enjoyment. but it is not to be ex- pected that the day of television is as yet near at hand.
 Laboratories are doing excellent work in the development of tele- vision and will probably ultimately bring the equipment to satisfac- tory stage for public use. It is dan gerous to make any definite predic- ton as to how long this will take"
 Dr. Goldsmith pointed out that the term television means so many different things to various people that a clarification is important. Some think 1t means small, dim, blurry and shifting images. Others think it means perfect. large, bril- liant pictures like the finest movies. Each viewpoint is regarded as ex-l treme.
 "Television is a radio service of pictures in motion of sufficient de- tail and quality to have continu- ing entertainment value to the public, month after month and year after year. It is believed that it is necessary to be able to show clearly the head and shoulders of several people in closeup and also action of a group at greater distance with a reasonable amount of back ground detail.
 Tt is necessary that receivers supplied the public be simple, com pact, quiet, and fairly automatic and reliable in operation and req sonable in cost. Pictures must be brilliant enough to be seen in an ordinary dimly lighted room, of good color. of adequate detail, Of real pictorial value, without an- moving flicker, and visible to per- sons seated in various parts of the room
 Tn order that the people Of the United States shall enjoy such service, 1t must be carried out on national scale. This means erec- tion of numerous television trans mitters. They must be located at proper points all over the country, and on occasion be interconnected by wire, radio or through shipment

 Establishment of transmitting stations and creation of programs for the entire United States is a lengthy and expensive job. To be of value to the public programs must be arranged so that they will coordinate sight and sound proper ly. Correct wavelengths for tele- vision for city, suburban and rural service must be determined, h. correct choice of wavelengths means ruined or unreliable transmission. J

By United Press
LISBON, Dec. %. Ramon
Franco desires to reside in France
so he can maintain contact with
his revolutionary republican friends
in Spain.
Revolutionary ideas continue in
Spain, and nothing can halt them, .
Franco said.
Franco and a dozen other Span
ish aviators escaped from Spain
after an unsuccessful attempt to
start a revolution.
Franco said that he intended to
sail from Lisbon to Havre as soon
as possible and begin his residence
in France.
Franco does not dislike King AL
fonso of Spain personally. he said.
but he puts his republican ideals
above his personal considerations.
The Portuguese government, per-
picked as to what to do with the
Spanish airmen, decided to allow
them to leave Portugal for what
other country they might select.
