largest game bird in the United
States. 1t is the largest men,
ber of the grouse family. The bird
was first seen by Lewis and Clark and
named the Cock of the Plains" This
name seems to be more in keeping with
the sage cock, for when he is in his
courting garments, he is very pompous,
indeed. The only reason for calling
this bird and his mate by the name of
hen is because of the clucking sound
made by the mother, when she calls
her chicks, and the wee babies call
pep, peeep."
The sage hen is to be found on the
sterile plans of the Northwestern States
and the Southwestern provinces. Where
the sage brush stops, the sage grouse
gees no farther. They are permanent
residents at most of the places seen.
The sage cock Is as famous for his
strutting as the ruffed grouse. In fact
it Is quite a ceremony and It takes
some time for the gallant fellow to in
fate his air sacs. BY the last of Feb

so all of the radio stations of the De-
partment of Commences vast airways
network. after January l. will be re-
quired to maintain a watch on the
frequency of 3,105 kilocycles 1865
meters). Orders to this effect have
gone out from Washington. and spare
receivers are being sent to all sta
tions.
1t is contemplated that all two-way
plane-to-ground communications with
airway radio stations will be con-
Quoted on 3,105 kilocycles as soon as
all aircraft are equipped to use this
national calling frequency. The plan
is to have ground personnel follow all
communications involving aircraft in
fight over their particular sectors OF
the airway so they can follow the
progress of the flights and anticipate
the requirements of pilots as to wealth
er information and ground service.
The Federal airway radio service
will cooperate with the private trans
port lines and their stations in estab-
fishing and maintaining this new
service. Ships throughout the world
use the 500-kilocycle channel to call
one another or to call shore stations,
then upon making contact shift over
to less crowded channels. Thus a
constant watch is maintained for dis
tress calls which naturally will be sent
out on this common wave length.
When an S OS is flashed, it is the
law of the sea that all other traffic
on that wave stop SO that contact
can be maintained with the vessel in
distress. The reservation of the 3,l05-
kilocycle channel will do the same for
aerial navigation that the 500-kilo-
cycle channel does for maritime navi-
cation.

LIMITING SPEECH
ON RADIO SCORED
U. S. Supreme Court Has
Yet to Rule on Basic
Principle.
BY MARTIN CODEL.

DIX MAN SODLL.
THE powers heretofore exercised
by the former Federal Radio Com
mission are upheld by the United
/ States Supreme Court, freedom OF
speech does not exist for that
modern means of mass communica-
tions called radio broadcasting, which
has virtually replaced the public plat
form. For freedom Of speech via radio
has failed to keep abreast Of our con-
stitutional guarantees of free speech
and a free press, and the press hence
forth must carry the torch alone.
Louis G. Caldwell, who was general
counsel Of the old Radio Commission,
made these assertions in a talk last
week before the Washington confer
ence of the American Civil Liberties
Union. Not only the potential power
Of the Federal Government to silence
radio stations, but actual cases OF
silencing were cited by Mr.. Caldwell
as proof of his position.
Disclaim Aim to Censor.
During the last few months the
writer has interviewed members OF
the Federal Communications Commis-
sion, successor to the Radio Commits
sion, over the radio. With one accord
they have disclaimed any purpose on
their part or on the part OF the Roose-
welt administration to censor radio or
impose any restraints upon it as a
medium of free expression, especially
In a political way.
Several of them used strong Ian
guage to counter the charges that the
New Deal is hamstringing radio for its
own ends. Commissioner Irwin Stew
art. a Democrat, called the charges
"poppycock" Commissioner Thad H
Brown, a Republican, calling the
charges bunk" asserted that he can
"vouch for the fact that this admin
istration hasn't done one thing, dl-
rectly or indirectly. to warrant any
belief that it intends now or later to
censor or limit radio as an avenue OF
free speech and free expression OF
talent"
The whole discussion has given rise
to varying schools of thought on the
question whether a federally licensed
system OF radio can be regarded a.
being as free as an unlimited press
Against what might be called the Of
fetal school stands that group, a;
represented by Mr.. Caldwell, who Is
an authority on the laws Of radio and
communications, which insists that
the guarantees Of the first amend
ment to the Constitution have failed
to keep pace with the progress Of
science and that the Government still
holds radio in fetters.
Potential Power in Government.
Between these groups is another
school. unbothered by academic con-
siderations. which holds that vel
enough can be left alone and that
the few actual instances Of restraint
upon freedom Of speech via the radio
such as the silencing of four sta
tions by the Radio Commission for
provocative utterances over their
microphones-do not represent q
grave danger.

Everyday Psychology

Completes.

COME twenty years ago the public
- was introduced to the term COM
plex," which is the name for an atti-
tude or predisposition. There are in
feriority complexes, superiority COM
plexes. mother complexes, father
complexes, dietetic complexes. and so
on. Always some sinister significance
was attached to them. So far as this
popular conception was peddled about
by gossip, stage, and story, a complex
was some sort of Jack -the-box," I"
likely to pop up at any time. And
If you could recognize and identify
a complex, you might easily read the
hidden character of another.
This version OF q comparatively
harmless and altogether mental atti-
tude popu1arized psychology. But it
left an erroneous impression. This
Is, perhaps. not strange. Popularize
anything and 1t at first appears other
than It Is.
What is more natural than for q
person to attach an emotional value
to certain elements Of his life? Who
is 1t that does not feel strongly" on
certain subjects? That is what a
complex is-emotionally-toned ideas.
Take them away and the personality
is washed out, is utterly weak, lacks
enthusiasm and becomes negative.
There may be good completes and
bad, but the chances are that q nor
NAL individual possesses the good In

"A Street Arab"

WE ARE all familiar with the word
w Arab" but it may further interest
many of us to know that it Is derived
from the Hebrew "Arabah," meaning
"a desert" It may be noted in pass
ing that, according to the Old Testa-
ment, Arabah was the name applied
to the territory embraced in the VAL
ley of the Jordan and the Dead Sea.
In time the term Arab" was en-
ployed to designate the wandering race
who lived in what is now Arabia, and
many of whom spread into Syria and
Northern Africa.
1t Is because of the similarity be-
tween their nomadic and personal
habits with those of the Arabs that
the expression street Arab" was ap-
piled, first in England and later in
the United States, to vagabond boys
and girls, who, homeless, ragged ILL
kempt and outcast, roamed about the
city.
