On the brink of the peak season

grant workers from southern stat
es. A total of 400 Bahamans, al
ready housed in migrant labor
camps throughout the state, will
be doubled by mid-July according
to plans of the Agricultural Exen-
tion Service. Southern migrant
laborers recruited by the Delaware
U. S. Employment Service will
work in canneries and food pro-
cessing centers. A total of 600
workers are already in
the state, it was disclosed by FL

One of the most noteworthy local
organizations of recent years is
the newly organized band, sponsor
ed by members of the Citizens
Hose Company. 1t was planned
and begun under the direction of
"The Committee in Charge of

Band would like to see as many
as possible show up for the re-
hearsals, which are held every
Tuseday at the local Fire Hall. The
music is graded and instruction

terested, but play no musical in
strument. Because the Band is
new, it has no concrete plans for
the future, but announcements
concerning uniforms, and activities
will be forthcoming.

PLANE RADIO TO
BE INSTALLED
Plane-tO-G Ground Telephone to
Be Built and Installed by
Hercules Powder
FIRST ONE IN COUNTRY

Plane-to-ground telephone service
will be established by Hercules
Powder Company in its Lockheed-
Lodestar transport plane, as soon
as equipment can be built and in
stalled, the company has announc-
ed. A license to operate the two
way plane telephone, first of its
kind in the country, has been
granted the company by the Fed
eral Communications Commission.
The plane telephone will be similar
to the ship-to-shore service by
which ships at sea make a radio
connection with central radio te,a-
phone stations on shore. These
stations then connect the ship,
through landlines, with whatever
telephones it wants to reach. The
Hercules plane will contact the
same shore stations which will
transmit its calls to other land
telephones. The frequencies or
wave lengths permitted for use by
ship-to-shore telephones have been
prescribed by the FEC for many
years, but have never before been
used by planes. The radio tele-
phone differs from a home radio
set in that "a home radio can pick
up various wave lengths or fire.
quencies, while the radio telephone
set can pick up only the ground
frequency to which its crystal has
been set. A ten-crystal trans
ceiver, which Hercules is installing
will enable the plane to contact
nearly all shore stations through
which calls can be transmitted, the
company said. A ten-crystal set
is the standard size used by COM
aircraft for navigation
Earphones and micro
phones, similar to those used in
the plane for navigation, will be
used for the p1ane-to-ground tele-
phone. Different crystals will
have to be ground for the trans
mitter than those used in the navi-
cation set for contracting control
towers at airports, since different
frequencies are used in navigating
and in communicating. A group
of about 25 employees who use the
Hercules plane frequently will be
licensed as radio operators, third
class, after passing a test given by
the FFC. Obtaining and installing
the equipment will require from 60
to 80 days, the company estimated.
If the American Telephone and
Telegraph Company establishes
national system of highway radio
telephone stations for automobiles
trucks and buses, the plane tele-
phone may be adjusted to make
use of the highway transmitter
stations.
