The mesage follows: “May the spirit of Washington be our guide in all our national aspira- tions and may the current year work the return of tranquility, stability, confidence, and progress throughout the entire’ world.” Hood, who operates an amateur station, recognized by the American Radio Relay League, caught his co: firmation of the radiogram at 10 last night from Rock Island, Il., after having caught portions of it being re- layed from Anacostia, D. ‘C., Chicago and Anthony, Kas., earlier in the evening. His accuracy in deciphering the radiogram is emphasized by the fact that his wireless equipment, with the exception’ of the receiving bulb and the phones is home-made, but none the less efficient, as attested by the long distance from which the message Was received. Conditions for transmitting radio- grams were exceptionally good last night, agcording to Hood, who was in convenienced only once, by “fading" when the message was being relayed from Chicago: Hood frequently “‘list- ens in’.on messages and has on sev- eral occasions canght jazz and other music from the recuperation hospital in Denver. gino A OO ahah eo ORANGE “BASKETS” U!
