HOSPITAL CUTS
DEATHRATE

PARIS.-Figures recently COM
piled by the American Hospital
at Neuilly, just outside Paris, show
that the death rate there for
1923 per cent of all cases re-
ceived-was better than that OF
hospitals in the United States,
even of the Grade A type in the
year 1881.
For Grade A hospitals in the
United States the 1881 death rate
was 1922 per cent. The average
for all classes of hospitals. in the
United States was per cent for
that year. The death rate of ex-
actly 3 per cent at the American
Hospital of Paris also represents
a dimunition over 1881, when the
rate was 1926 per cent.

STATIONS IN EUROPE
PLAN POWER INCREASE
Reallocation Scheme Results in
Trend Toward Greater Strength.
Moscow Among Leaders.

One of the immediate effects of the
plan de Lucerne, the reallocation
scheme recently adopted by European
nations at their regional wave-length
conference, was to set afoot plans in
the countries involved to increase the
powers of their broadcasting stations
to the maximum allowable. The trend
toward higher powers in Europe is be-
ing watched carefully by American
and Canadian radio officials in the ex-
pectation that the maximum of $4,000
watts now allowed here will soon be
raised.
Even before the Lucerne conference
was held Russia was building its 500,-
Oo0- watt station at Moscow and a Sc
ries of 100000 waters. Provision is
made in the Lucerne treaty to retain
the 500,000-watter, but no other coun-
tries get such high power. First OF
the other countries to announce its
plan to increase power is Germany
which will have its main stations" at
Berlin, Munich, Mulacher and Ham
burg reconstructed to 100000 watts
by January IS, 1884, when the Lu-
cerne plan goes into effect. Germany
during 1894 will also increase its sta
tionS at Breslau, HeilSberg and Lang
enberg to 100000 watts.
The Reich's Observation-Disclosures, key
station near Berlin. will 60 to 150 900
watts, the maximum specified in the
Lucerne plan. The increases, Ger
man post Office authorities stated, are
necessary to compensate for the loss OF
local ranges expected when the Lu-
eerne plan goes into effect.
