IN RESTING
 RADIO TESTS
 MADE BY AIR
Meteorograph Observations Made Recently in Fair
 banks Valuable

1 "The recent experiment in con- ducting radio metsorograph obser- lyations for the United States by lthe College-Fairbanks Polar Year Station staff, is most interesting to all who are connected with avi- lation and may result advantageous fly to the industry," Joe Crosson, Operations manager for the Pacific
 Alaska Airways said.
 Professor " R. Fuller, physicist
 of the Alaska Agricultural College
 and School of Mines made several Important mechanical impr ove- iments in the design of the instru-
 ments before the first radio meteor Iograph was released and the re- lsults obtained were most satisfac- ltory.
 "The College Fairbanks station
 will be the only station to conduct
 these radio metsorograph obServa- ltions in Alaska but the results are
 ccordinated with observations made
 by stations in the States. Though those in Fairbanks may be the lonly ones to be conducted during
 the Second International Polar
 Year.
 Specially oeslgned batteries to be carried into the air to provide electric energy for the transmission of the radio signals from the met ,eorograph had to be prepared and fastened to small carrier suspend | ed from the meteorograph. After all of the equipment had been weighed the sounding balloon was Inflated and the antenna and in struments were carefully placed in position for the releasing of the balloon.
 | Three Ground Stations Three ground stations prepared | to listen in for the radio meteoro- graph signals, the Weather Bu- reau office, the naval research lab- oratory set and the set at the Col lege.
 "The balloon was released at l1O.45 am, 150th meridian time. The lair temperature at the earths lsurface at the time of the balloons release was 69 degrees Fahrenheit. Temperature Steadily Falls
 "As the balloon rose, the air tenn perature aloft fell steadily until it reached the stratosphere, 38,202 fleet above the sea level. or 37,730 fleet above Fairbanks on that day The temperature at that elevation twas 48.3 degrees below zero.
 The balloon entered the strat- osphere at 11:43 am. and from that moment until the observation was finished the temperature rose. The balloon attained maximum altitude of 56,574 feet above sea level, at which time the balloon was believed to have burst as the radio signals suddenly became er- ratio, which is characteristic of the signal when that occurs.
 Signal Received Perfectly All three surface stations re- lceived the signals perfectly until l12:1O pm, when the signals be- came cratic. The temperature at 56,574 feet was 31 degrees below zero and the balloon drifted about 25 miles to the West-northwest of Fairbanks. An excellent record of Barometric pressure was also ob- tained throughout the flight"

Chicago Gets 41st Convention
of League to Encourage
Building in Cities

CHICAGO, July 15.-Forty years
ago the first national conference
devoted to the financing of Amer
ican homes took place here. The
United States Building and Loan
League, then a two months old
organization of a $473, ,000,000
business, brought together the
managers of local associations
from many states, with the
Worlds Columbian Exposition as
a background.
On September 13, IA and IS
this year, the league, now repre-
senting an eight billion dollar
business, will celebrate that an
niversary by holding its forty
first annual convention in Chi
cago, with another Worlds Fair
in progress.
The 40 year span over which
the present home financiers will
travel in their thinking this Sep
tember is characterized by the
most significant events in the
history of home Ownership, it is
pointed out by Ward B. Whitlock,
of Springfield, fortieth president
of the league. He says:
"The number of urban fami-
lies owning their homes has in
creased from 2,923,671 in 1890
to 1O,5O3, 1886 in 1880. The per-
centage of total families in
cities and towns occupying their
homes has also increased from
1863 in 1890 to 46 in 1880. This
rise in home e-Ownership stand
ards has characterized the most
mOmentOus period in our indus
trial and financial development
in the United States. Il has
been the result largely of a 15-
fold increase in building and
loan assets.
"The organized forces Of the
building and loan associations
operating in 10000 different
communities have played the
major role in making America
a home owning nation. These
associations are not only the
sole specialized home financing
institutions in America, but
they have been using the long
term, installment repayment
mortgage for more than a hun
dred years and have proved it
to be the most practical way for
q family to own its hOme.'

Architect Holds American
Cities Obsolete

American cities are obsolete,
according to Clarence S. Stein,
of the New York chapter of the
American Institute of Architects,
who urges that Federal expendi-
lures to relieve unemployment
should not be used "in a futile
attempt to revise a bankrupt
past" but rather to build a solid
foundation for the future.
Declaring that the houses and
cities of the past will not do,
Mr.. Stein, former chairman of
the New York Commission of
Housing and Regional Planning,
asserts the need for a new tech
nique of city building. in which
indiVidualistic haphazard meth
ods are discarded. He explains:
"The framework of the city
plan and every detail down to

INSTITUTE

Establishment of the new Insti.
tute of Real Estate Management
of the National Association of
Real Estate Boards was perfected
at the associations recent annual
convention in Chicago.
The institute is formed to Cstab-
lish a more accurate knowledge
of the factors which affect the
income-producing power of i'm
proved real estate, and to foster
efficiency in management meth
DDS.
The new body will be a clear
ing house of management expert
ence. 1t looks toward the estab-
lishment of a code of ethics and
standards of practice for real
estate management.
Findings of the institute will
be open to all real estate boards
in the associations membership
and to all realtors.
The institute, in its bylaws,
sets certain clear and effective
standards Of practice in real
estate management to which all
applicants for membership must
subscribe.
The institute will have full
disciplinary powers over it's mem
bership.
Formation of such an institute
now is especially important in
view of the fact that tremendous
changes in real estate ownership
have been taking place.
Financial and other institutions
have come into possession of
large blocks of real estate in
cities throughout the country for
the management of which they
have no adequate present equip

RESORT ON BAY
ONLY So MILES
FROM D. c.
ideal Chesapeake Spot Wins
Many Seeking Health
And Relaxation

The completion Of the new
State road from Chesapeake
Beach to willows, Md, has been
of great advantage to summer
residents on the western shore of
Chesapeake Bay adjacent to
Washington and particularly to
those whose cottages are located
ut Randle Cliff Beach.
Heretofore the single track
shore road and the roundabout
county road were very great OBJ
stacles to the development and
enjoyment of this bayside resort.
Nevertheless those who had cot
cages there endured these handi-
caps for the privilege of spending
their vacations there, to enjoy the
health giving air and salt water
bathing, and to indulge them
selves in the complete relaxation
and rest, both physical and men,
tai, which could be had.
Build q Church
This is the only subdivision on
Chesapeake Bay where the people
of all denominations Joined in
many enterprises to accumulate
funds to build themselves a
church for their Sunday devotion.
The State road has stimulated
ANilding and many new cottages
IRE now being erected.
Added to the excellent salt
water bathing there is good fish
ing, grabbing and boating and as
. resort for children, it is safe
and health giving.
Randle Cliff Beach is So miles
@om Washington, D. c., and can
be reached by auto in about an
hours drive at nominal speed, the
hntire distance through Maryland
being travelled on beautiful wloe
State roads.

tends to promote excellent health
In the whole family.
A Real Comfort
It is one of the places where
one can really enjoy being lazy
and relaxed. If you wish to
have a real outing, have a cottage
ut Randle Cliff Beach. It will
pay you in health, comfort and
ease of mind and body.
The social atmosphere OF
Randle Cliff Beach is one Of ex-
ceptionally pleasant congeniality.
The cottages being built are
economical in cost and furnish
ings yet commodious, sufficient to
give ample protection from the
elements and permit one to enjoy
all the freedom of an outing
without many Of the stringent
conventional requirements.
Pleasant Sounds
And so as we draw to the close
Of our visit with the beautiful,
rustic and picturesque Randle
Cliff Beach we will carry away
with us the pleasant recollections
Of two distinct thoughts.
The first is the sights, for we
shall see sailing up and down
the Chesapeake crafts of every
description, from the stately liner
going or returning from her At
Iantic voyage, to the little motor
boats scurrying about on various
errandS.
The second thought is the song
of birds, the low of cattle, the
hum of bees and the murmur of
the waves as they wash the sands.
These are the sounds. All the
Joyous life of land, water and
sky are combined at this spot
and visible from your window.
