Radio Link to Ethiopia.
.CrrpNFTNEn IN free America sti

further from British bondage"
with respect to wireless traffic which
hitherto has cleared through London,
the Federal Communications Commits
sion last week granted Press Wireless,
Inc. radio subsidiary of group Of
leading American newspapers, au-
thority to communicate directly with
Adds Ababa, the Ethiopian capital,
where a galaxy Of star American war
correspondents is now clustered.
At the same time the F. c. c. re-
ceived an application. which will un-
doubtedly be granted, from r. c. A..
Communications. Inc, which usually
clears its European traffic through
London, for similar authority to pick
up Ethiopia direct on two of its radio
stations at Rocky Point, Long Island.
Previously practically all war news
from Adds Ababa has been routed
from the Ethiopian radio Station ETA
via British Marconi circuits to Lon
don and thence to the United States.
The new direct circuits from the
United States to Ethiopia will be
1000 miles long, one of the longest ra-
dio spans ever attempted on schedule.
r. C. A. Communications, Inc, at
present maintains direct communica-
tions with Turkey, Persia and Syria,
from which countries relays from
ETA can be picked up in the event
atmospheric conditions thwart direct
reception from Ethiopia.
Direct communications between
Ethiopia and the United States will
eliminate, it is believed by high au-
thorities and by newspaper and COM
munications executives, any possibility
of censorship of the Italo-E Ethiopian
war news at London. It is also ex-
pected that the direct circuits will
lower costs and considerably expedite
the transmission of the war news-as-
suming, of course, ETA'S capacity to
handle the immense amount of word
traffic coming out of Emperor Halle
Selassie's capital. The Ethiopian sta
ton, said to be under British and
French domination, is reported to be
overtaxed even now, and it has taken
many hours and sometimes days for
some dispatches to reach the United
States.

the goal Of securing greater portion

THOSE who go down to the sea
in ships are looking eagerly to an
ultra short wave device perfected by
a young French engineer as the pos
sible answer to one of maritime navi-
cations constant dangers-collision
with vessels, derelicts, icebergs and
other obstacles in fogs and storms.
The apparatus is now undergoing
tests on the French liner Normandie
and early reports state that 1t Is
working splendidly.
The device employs well known
radio principles, being actually an
ultra short wave radio transmitter
located on the bridge of the Norman
die. 1t sends out radio beams un-
seen flashes of electrical impulses. on
wave length of 16 centimeters, or
O.16 of one meter. Like searchlight,
the beams describe an arc of As de-
grees with the center of the arc on
the ships course. If the beams are
interrupted by any obstacle IN the
path of the vessel or within the As
degree arc, the device records the
fact through an amplifier which can
be heard by the officers on the bridge.
Weather conditions have no effect
on the operation of the radio beam,
which is working constantly. The
tests on the Normandie have de-
tected objects as far away as four
miles. The inventor is M. Ponte Of
Paris.
