Television Gaining.

Berlin doesn't intend to be outdone
by London in the matter Of television
and plans are going forward swiftly
for an expansion of visual broadcast
ing in the Reich. according to reports
received here. The British have de-
cided to open television to public gaze
from London some time this year, but
the Germans have already done so
with station of 1000 watts power
operating in Berlin to send out vision
on the ultra short waves of AT kilo-
cycles with sound accompaniment on
42.9 kilocycles.
The Germans started to broadcast
180-Ine television at 25 frames per
second nearly two years ago, but
limited the reception to scientific
laboratories and amateurs who built
their own sets. 1t was found that a
radius of about 80 miles could be
obtained, thus covering the whole of
Berlin. From this station 1t Is in
tended to continue visual broadcast
ing, but it is also planned to erect a
station on the Brocken Mountain and
connect it with Berlin to serve the
western portion of Central Germany
One German firm, state the re-
ports, has big stock of television
receivers all ready to place on the
market. Programs at first will con-
sist of ordinary newsreels changed
every week. The German Post ONCE
Department, which has television in
charge, has ordered special television
van to go to places where news events
are occurring and make special reels
for immediate transmission to owners

The Tide Water Oil Co. held a
dealer meeting last Tuesday night at
the Continental Hotel in Washington.
The object of the meeting was to ac-
quaint the dealers with merchandise
plans and advertising schedules of
the company for the coming season.
F. N. Pierson, Alexandria and Balti-
more sales supervisor, who is in
charge of the Washington territory,
officiated. The meeting was ad-
dressed by officials of the Tide Water
Oil Co.'S Philadelphia Office, includ-
ing F. w. Clark, departmental man
ager, and his assistant, M. G. Allen.
A buffet supper and entertainment
followed the meeting.
The west lobby of the wardman
Park Hotel will be the setting for a
Lincoln Salon opening next Tuesday
(April 23) for five days. The display
will include formal and informal body
styles. Seven of the 1885 Lincolns will
be shown, including the convertible
roadster, convertible phaeton, standard
limousine, five-passenger sedan and the
brunn brOugham.
This showing will also include many
interesting mechanical exhibits, such
as the stripped chassis, body in white,
and the Johansson gauges, which are
the fundamental instruments for pre-
cision measurement throughout the
world. With these marvellous gauges it
is possible to measure to the almost
unbelievable exactitude of one-mill-
ionth part of an inch.

ties to the peasants, who compose 10
per cent of the Polish population.
The airplanes, according to infor.
nation received here, are designed to
admit stretche- without fitting and
are provided with two full-size hos
pital berths each. The berths are
suspended from rubber straps to alb
sorb vibration. The cabin is air-con-
ditioned and provided with fully
equipped medicine cabinet and COM
plete sanitary facilities for emergency
treatment. The planes have a radius
Of 500 miles and, in addition to the
pilot, can transport two patients, a
doctor and nurse.
Modern medical practice has made
little headway in Poland, the peasants
Tor ages having been accustomed to
the use of household remedies, herbs
and the advice Of old women.
Airplane ambulance service first was
established in Poland 10 years ago as
military service. In 1927 it was
placed at the disposal Of the civilian
population and today a plane may be
summoned by any doctor. A short
time ago law was passed creating
a new branch in the Health Depart
ment for flying ambulances." Dur
ing the next three years it is expected
TO increase by three times the number
of centers served by air ambulance.

Swiss Buy American Planes.
Swissair, the foremost Swiss air
transport company, which for several
years has used American transport
planes on its European air lines, has
placed an order for four new trans
port planes to be built in the United
States, the Commerce Department
has been informed.
The aeronautical industry Of Swift
Zerland is comparatively undeveloped
and the Swiss transport company, be-
Ing free to choose from foreign mar
kets, has given what is considered a
signal recognition of the efficiency Of
the new American equipment.
The new planes are to go into oper-
alton, when delivered during the
Summer, on the routes from Zurich
to London, Paris, Berlin and Amster-
dam, cutting travel time from Zurich
to Paris from 3 hours and Is minutes
to 2 hours and so minutes. and from
Zurich to London from 6 to 612 hours
to hours and 80 minutes.
Through the acquisition of this
American equipment" the Commerce
Department reported, "a new mile
stone will be marked in the develop
ment of Swiss commercial aviation,
which already enjoys the reputation
of having the fastest commercial lines
in Europe. The SWissair will now
compete on routes flown up to this
time solely by foreign companies,
greatly enlarging the scope of its oper-
ations."
