WPDW CLEARED
IN COMPLAINTS.

Investigation of numerous COM
plants that Station WPDW,
police broadcaSting station, was
drowning out broadcasts of all
other local stations, revealed that
persons making the complaints
were for the most part using OBJ,
solete receivers in their homes.
Complaints Checked
Privae James L. Kelly, in
charge of the station which is
located at the Tenth district, per-
sonally investigated all com
plants from persons living in the
neighborhood of the station.
He said that the sending unit
is absolutely foolproof in so far
as any variance in the wave
length frequency is concerned.
He added that a daily check
is made on all stations by the
Federal Radio Commission i'll
spector in Baltimore, and that
where any variance in excess of
that allowed is detected, the sta
ton offending is Immediately
notified and a correction of the
frequency made.
No such complaint has come
from the commission, according
to Kelly.
A number of persons who said
that when the police broadcasting
station was in operation, they
could not get any other stations.
were found o be using old crystal
sets and some of the earlier re,
ceivers which are classified as
obsolete by the radio commits
sion.
Kelly said that the radio com.
mission has taken the stand that
where such sets are used it will
not interfere with the station Of
which complaint is made.

vestigation of the love trail' of

convict, held in Jail here charged
with the murder of an aged grocer,
Henry Schmidt, beaten to death
10 days ago.
Find Bride" List
Among Waldens effects police
discovered a list of 500 names
supplied by a national matrimo-
nial agency, a collection of let.
ters indicating that Walden had
corresponded with more than 100
''young women of means" in va
rious parts of the United States.
The authorities developed inter
est in the list of matrimonial pros
poets in view of the fact that
Walden had checked the names
of women who stipulated that
they owned valuable property.
Jailed in White Slavery
The fact that Walden served
seven years in San Quentin prison
on a white slavery conviction in
volving his own wife led to a dec
1aration by Captain of detectives
Charles Dullea that the eX-con-
Vict might have been involved in
extended criminal activity in this
line.
Walden has denied the murder
charge since his arrest. and re,
