Novy Has Secret Device to Find
Ships and Planes F rom Afur

radio transmitting and receiving
equipment or they may have had
experience with televlsion or cathode
ray equipment.
The nature of the detection de-
vice, despite disclosures regarding
its existence, remained naval
secret. Whether it is similar to the
radio airplane detection equipment
now being widely used by military
forces both in this country and in
England could not be determined.
The possibility that it might involve
somewhat different principles was
seen in the fact that it is suitable
for use aboard either ships or air
planes and can be used to detect
either airplanes, surface vessels or
submarines. Apparently only one
device is necessary in order to dis
cover the object of search.
In the case of the airplane detec-
ton equipment, two stations ordi-
narily are used, the angle of reflec-
ton of the radio beam put out by
one Of them when it bounces back
from an airplane being used to de-
termine the position of the plane
and. the speed at which 1t Is ap-
preaching the detection station.

Rent Bill Amendment
Voted by House Wins
Senate Concurrence
Jonuory I Prices Made
Bosis for Adjustment;
Plan Goes to President

The Senate today concurred in
the House amendment to the Dis
trict rent control bill. The bill now
goes to President Roosevelt for his
approval
The measure makes rentals Of
January l, 1941, base for ADJUST
ment, 1t also provides for appoint
ment of a rent administrator at
81 ,500-a-year salary. to whom ap-
peals for adjustment Of rent may be
made
Senator Burton of Ohio issued a
statement urging the Senate con-
currence in the House amendment.
OF the House amendment, he said:
TT is intended to give relief in
the case Of some rentals. which even
on January l. 1941, already were
higher than those generally pre-
vailing for comparable housing ac-
commodation.
In the light of the purpose of this
act. rentals of housing accommoda-
tions are not to be determined under
the cumbersome and almost endless
procedure of determining public
utility rates and services based upon
proofs of original cost. investment
value. cost of reproduction less de-
probation, or any other complicated
rate base.
1T is intended that there be a
readily ascertainable standard of
rentals, determined by those gen.
orally prevailing for comparable
housing accommodation.
1T is also recognized that
although there may have been some
few unfair and unreasonable varia-
tions from the normal standard in
individual cases as of January l,
l941, yet the generally prevailing
standards Of rentals at that time
had not then been substantially dis
torted."

Existence of a secret Navy weapon
for use in detecting both ships and
airplanes at great distances was dis
closed In authoritative quarters to-
day as the Navy Department called
for increased enlistments for train
ing in radio maintenance.
The device has been in use for
some time, according to the best
available information, but has been
a carefully guarded secret. Word Of
its existence leaked out in connec-
ton with the campaign of recruiting
radio technicians, but even SO, Navy
officials declined all official discus
sion of it.
The recruiting campaign was dis
closed in q letter issued to the
Recruiting Service by Rear Admiral
c. w. Nimitz, chief of the Bureau Of
