Many Microphones
Microphones can be connected at
70 points in the hotel where events
are likely to occur. Twenty-Five loud
speakers, ranging in size from sew
eral as tall as man to variety of
smaller ones, give every public room
voice. The amplifers are $50 times
as powerful as the average home set.
Every guest room is connected to
the system. If a guest wants radio
service, he notifies a clerk and in a
few moments loudspealer is de-
livered to his room and plugged in
for him. He can tune in on any of
the six programs he wishes.
Six hundred feet above street level
are three antennae. One is the pick
up for the general program distribu-
ton system and feeds it over trans
mission line 700 feet long. The other
two supply radio reception for the

When the new Waldorf-Astoria
Hotel Threw open its doors, its giant
radio system, possessed of many
moro than a thousand voices, began
to talk. From Washington, Herbert
Hoover spoke and in New York,
Lucius Boomer, president Of the
hotel, thanked him and said, we
have built with confidence in our
couhtry's growth and prosperity"
In the grand ballroom a SYM
pIlony orchestra swung into the Star
Spangled Banner and some 10000
people who were at that moment
streaming through the hotel stood
stock still Their curiosity to view
the luxuries of this modern success
sor to the famous old Waldorf had
lured them to its foyer, lobby, walks,
and corridors, to the intimacy OF
Peacock Alley, the murals of the
Sert Room and the colors of the En-
pire Room.
Hear Program Everywhere
But no matter where their Curl
osity to see had led them, their Curl
osity to hear was being satisfied.
Loudspeakers concealed be hin d
fancy grille-work, silk curtains and
sliding panels of glass, brought the
words of Mr.. Hoover, Mr.. Boomer
and the national anthem TO their
ears. The most elaborate system of
electrical communication under one
roof. after months of installing and
weeks Of careful testing, that COW
cred miles of wire and thousands Of
connections, had sprung into life.
This Western Electric system, de-
signed by the Bell Telephone Lab
oratories, makes six programs avail
able simultaneously. These pro-
grams can originate from, any COM
bination Of three sources: radio
picked up from the air or wired di
rectly into the hotel from broadcast
ing studios; events going on in the
hotel itself; recorded entertainment
as furnished by two music repro
ducers.
Has Big "Nerve Center"
The hotels radio room, where %
panels Of receivers and amplifiers
are lined up fifty feet long, is the
nerve center of the system. There
the program director can pick six
broadcasts out of the air. Or he can
offer three radio programs, the mu-

speeches going on at banquet in

can have their own radios and pick
up any program on the air without
disturbing the reception of their
neighbors using the same antenna.
Elaborate as is this radio network,
it is not all OF the communication
system in the mammoth hotel. The
grand ballroom is equipped like a
theater to give talking pictures. Two
portable sound picture systems can
bring the talkies to any of the public
rooms.
2 Telephone Systems
Approximately 5000 telephones
give service to guests over switch
board large enough to serve a
good-sized community. The man

system, operating &c electrical type

the hotel messages dealing with the
arrival and departure of guests, pag-

is a striking concentration of the

UP HIS TITLE

BUCHAREST, Dec. IL I.N.S0.
Prince Nicholas of Rumania, put
ting love before royal titles and
honors, today renounced his
princely prerogatives and reduced
himself to the status of a COM
moner, taking the name Of
Nicholas Brosteniu.
Under the terms of an agree
ment with his brother, King Carol,
he will be permitted to remain
in Rumania as the husband Of
Nine. Jana Lucia Deletj, pretty
divorce with whom he eloped
sevral weeks ago.
Nicholas will go through anoth-
er marriage ceremony with Nine.
Deletj, as the Rumanian supreme
court, acting on orders from King
Carol, annulled the earlier roar-
riage.
With the union thus legaliZed,
Nicholas will take up residence in
his wife's apartment here. He will
divide his time between Buch-
Arrest and Snagov, where he main
tains model farm.
Apparently relenting somewhat
toward his brother when he per
ceived the latter's determination
to stand by his wife at all costs,
King Carol settled an income Of
$1,000 . month upon Nicholas.

Garber's House Bill Target

Government employees today
combined forces to combat the
drastic proposals for salary re-
ductions introduced in Con-
gress and pleaded with mem
bers of the House to aid them
in preventing enactment of
proposed wage-slashing leglsia-
tion.
The introduction of a bill in
the House yesterday calling for
reductions in salaries of all Gov
ernment employees and those Of
the District of as much as Is
per cent brought the situation to
a crisis.
The bill, introduced by Repre-
sentative Milton C. CARRIER (R0
of Oklahoma, provides that sala-
ries in excess of $500 be re-
duced Is per cent; those in ex-
cess of $2,50O but not, exceeding
$500 be reduced 30 per cent;
salaries in excess OF $1,000 but
not exceeding $2,5O0 be reduced
Is per cent, and salaries in ex-
cess of $1,000 but not exceeding
$1,000 be reduced 10 per cent.
The only ones exempt would be
employees receiving less than
$1,000.
CARRIERS bill and a bill intro
duced by Representative Robert
F.. Rich CR.) of Pennsylvania,
which asked a general reduction
of 10 per cent, have caused Fed
eral employees much consterna-
ton.
Other proposals which would
permit a five-day week of eight
hours a day are overlooked as
they seek to prevent the salary
reduction legislation.

afternoon to tell of his move

home was burned.
The bodies of the Millers we're

He asked a verdict of first degree

Seen Near Miller Home
Five witnesses for the State said
today they saw Woolfenden in his
automobile near the Miller home
shortly before the fire started.
Attorney Lions questions showed
he is endeavoring to prove that
Woolfenden killed the trio and
then fired the home.
The State closed its case shortly
after noon. Defense Counsel

Kane'S Whole Story

COURT HOUSE, HAMP-
TON, Va, Dec. II I.N.S.).
The case against Prof. Essor
Elisha Kent Kane, Sd, was
completed at 11:24 this morn
ing.
After recalling various men,
bers of the Graham family
in an attempt to refute the
story the professor himself
told on the witness stand, the
prosecution rested.
A short recess preceded the
summing up of the evidence for
and against the charge that the
professor wilfully drowned Jenny
Graham Kane, his wife, at Grand
View Beach last September.
Hatred Apparent
The parents of the dead girl,
her brother, her brothers wife,
her sister, and her sisters huS-
band came back to the stand to
denounce point by point the
statements the defendant had
made about them.
But as they spoke, their eyes
bright with hostility, it became
more and more apparent that one
thing the professor said anyhow,
was true. His "in-laWs," today at
least, have marked hatred for
him.
Hop" Graham, the brother.
especially betrayed his feelings,
pausing in his testimony once to
glare at the accused man across
the counsel table.
Mother Called Back
In an effort to breakdown
the professors testimony. even
Mother" Graham, of whom the
defendant spoke lovingly, was
brought back to the stand.
She denied that anyone had
persuaded her to say her Son-ir1"
law cursed her daughter-which
the professor said he believed
must have been the case.
Q.-"Did the accused ever
give you any money to buy
clothes?"
A.-"NO."
Here J. Winston Read, defense
counsel, objected that the profes-
sor had given his wife the money
to buy two dresses for Mrs.
Graham.
The witness admitted that Mrs.
Kane had purchased the dresses
the night before the tragedy-but
they cost $40 or $11, not $40, as
Prof. Kane testified.
Cries Out Reply
When asked if alcoholic bev'
erages had been offered to DR..
Kane, the defendants father, last
summer, she cried out:

house and never will be-"
She is a prominent member OF

deaths of the Millers. admitted
as evidence. He said he will
probably have to make visit to
Washington to request permission
to use the files.
Attorney Flynn has summoned
% witnesses. Some of them, he
said, will say that Woolfenden was
at his home in bed at the time the
fire started, while others will be
character witnesses. He said Wool
fenden will contend that Miller
was formerly an employe of his
and that he carried life insurance
policies on him and other en-
ployes as a matter of business.
State Scores Points
The State scored yesterday
when Joseph Woolfenden, of
Washington, a nephew of the ac-
cused man, said he heard his
aunt, Bertha Woolfenden, ques-
ton his uncle as to his where
abouts on the morning Of the
fire.
The most salient point made
by the State was the testimony
of the former fiancee of Wool
fenden, Miss Mary Thomas Car

Woolfenden when he collected a
$3.50 double indemnity policy on
Miller's life,

Party Leaders BaIk at Signing
Notification to Debtors
Interest Can Wait

The Administration failed
today in an effort to obtain
the consent of congressional
leaders for a notification to
European debtor-nations that
they need not make their in
terest payments which are due
Tuesday.
Ogden L. Mills, Undersecretary
of the Treasury, sent to the Cap
ttol as an emissary to win Con-
gressional sanction for the notifi-
cation, found Senate and House
leaders unwilling to discuss the
matter.
Statement Unsigned
He carried a written statement,
which he sought to have the
Congressional leaders sign, but
House leaders bIuntly. refused
their assent. This rebuff caused
Mills to keep the statement in
his pocket when he interviewed
Senate leaders.
The Administration, as a re-
suit, may send a message to
the debtor nations through the
State Department, advising them
that, failure to make the interest
payments due December is will
''not be criticized" by the eXecu-
tive branch of the Government.
Even this proposed action drew
q rebuke on Capitol Hill when
Representative McFadden (RO Of
Pennsylvania declared it would
be a violation of law. If the
message is sent, it will not. men

toward such a default in interest
payments.
