HUGE ANTENNA SYSTEMS WITHSTAND TYPHOONS Those at Annapolis Survive Severe and Sleet Storms and Arlington Also Atlantic Wind BY COMMANDER STANFORD C.| HOOPER, U. S. N. | Radio fans frequently encounter dif- ficulties in designing and installing | thelr miniature receiving antenna! systems. The Navy encounters antenna diffi- culties, too; usually not for receiving purposes. but decidedly so for trans- | mitting. It has to meet exacting re- quirements and contend with most di- versified and difficult conditions in this respect. The construction and installation of an antenna system for receiving pur- poses only is a comparatively simple and intexpensive matter. It is not necessary to suspend the overhead part of the receiving sntenna at great heights above the earth. Excellent results for all ordinary purposes are obtained with the overhead wire or wires suspended only 100 feet high, ©r even 50 fect high. most difficult and expensive feature of the station.

Barring the variatle costs of land, the erection of antenna supports at a_high-power station is by far the & piping of the city [ delivered to them. and the overhead wires must be well {nsulated to with- stand the very high voltages im pressed on the antenna circuit. At _the naval high-power statlons, ranging in power from 100 kilowat to 500 kilowatts, self-supporting steel towers weighing several hundred tons | témporarily at least. and from 450 to 600 feet in height have been erected to support these extensive wire systems. At the La- ctte 1,000-kilowatt station in ¥France, which was erected by the Navy as a war measure, the towers are 820 feet in height. Three Steel Towers Bullt. The overhead part of these an- tennas, consisting of heavy copper wires, supporting steel cables and immense porcelain insulators, aggre- gate a dead weight of from two to more than fifteen tons suspended from the tops of these towers high above the earth. The steel towers themselves are each designed to withstand a hori- zontal pull at the tops of from five to ten tons. Three such towers, rang- ing in height from 450 to 600 feet, have been erected at eight of the Navy's high-power stations, six 609- froot towers having been erected at Annpapolis, while eight 820-foot tow- ers stand as monuments at Lafayette, ten tons and a dielectric strength in excess of 100,000 volts at the wave lengths employed, insulate the an- tenna wires from these towers. Elec- tric curren’s of from 150 to 650 am- peres flow in the antenna wires when the transmitters are tunctioning into the antenna. The to.al length of copper wire cumprising the overhead part of these ntennas range from three miles in leng.h at the smailer stations to more tl sixteen miles at the La- fayette statlon. Approximately three t.mes these lengths of wire have been buried to an average of two and one- half feet in the earth at these sta- tions to form the “ground” part of the antenna systems. Thesc antenna systems are subject to the varying climatic conditions which prevail in the areas in which “he stations are located. Stand Up Under Typhoons. The existing antenna and towers at Cavite in the Philippines have with- stood the force of four severe ty- phoons which swept over that area witkin as many years. Those at Cayey In Por.o Ri¢o nave witns.oud ight earthquake shock and the napolis, Arlington and yville are subject to the severe wind and sleet storms which occur in the winter months along our Atlantic seaboard. At the latter named three stations it has been found necessary to so de- duce sufficient heat in the wires to melt the ice which forms thereon during the progress of these storm At the Annapol's station 600 kil watts of clectrical energy is dissi- pated in the antenna wires to create ufficient heat for this purpose there- by transforming this antenna into a I’mge electric heater for the time be- ng.

Doubt as to the ability of foreign governments to meet their obligations was freely expressed. The decline in prices for foreign bonds became acute. Here, too, the pressure has been lifted, New Kactor fm Market. This week a new Influence has come into the market for investment securities. It is fear as to the at- tempts of the radical group in Con- gress to modify the transportation act to the detriment of the railroads. The effect has been very plain (n the stock market, but bonds have not been exempt. Issues so well secured, both by property value and earning power, that no conceivable decline in net income would affect them are, of course, unchanged, but the great ma- Jority of second-grade and specula- tive issues have been in disfavor for the,same reasons that brought about the selling of rallroad stocks. Investors look to dividends on stocks as a margin of safety for con- tinued payment of interest on bonds. Most states make dividend payments on stock a qualification for bonds legai for savings banks and trustees. Any development which threatens the railroads as a whole has a disturbing effect the. holders of railroad comes clearer. It s perfectly true that there is little likelihood of any lexislation ad- verse to the rallroads before the new Congress meets in regular sesslon a year hence. but the dlscussion by leaders of the so-called agricultural bloc as to the imperative necessity of a reduction in rates has its effect on ent. Rafl Bonds Weak. Then, too, the revelations as to the enormous costs of the strike to the raflroads have been disturbing. It was a shock to many investors to hear from the president of the Bal- timore and Ohio that the cost of the strike to that road was between $10.000.000 and $11.000.000. The usual crop of rumors as to the financial ~ondition of the weabor roads has also been in evidence all the week. Probably all the rumors were base. less. Certainly they were promptly denied In all cases where they had crept into print. Bu* the cumulative resuit was bad. Nor did figures show- ing regular car loadings and general business {mprovement gerve to coun- teract the prevailing feeling. It must be remembered that all this talk months. Now all this is entirely illoglcal. Not even the radical leaders fn Con- grees are going to destroy the value which protects good railroad bonds Government ownership and opera- farmers nor any one else can be pros- perous if the railroads are not al- lowed to earn enougi to provide themselves with adequate equipment to meet the transportation needs of the country. Also If the other factors which have adversely affected quotations could be removed and the general course of the whole market be re- versed the prevailing uieasiness as to the raflroads would ilkely be dissi- pated. Business Outlook Good. Meanwhile if we get awav from the atmosphere of the security mar- kets the business ou‘look continues favorable. The wholesale drygoods trade continues active. Automobile manufacturers are preparing for record business in the spring. The Department of Agriculture belleves it possible to wage successful war on the boll weevil. The cotton grower is marketing his product s*eadily at prevailing high prices. Many cor- porations are increasing dividends. Credit is available to merchants on reasonable terms. The trend of prices is upward which always breeds op- timism. The demand for labor, especially unskilled labor, 18 in- creasing. Probably some attempt wil' be made to modify the present immi- gration restrictions. While no boom is in_sight, neither is there any in- dlcation of a depression. Opinfon as to the correct attitude of America toward Europe is still very confused. It can hardly be said BY I A. FLEMING. Whether in favor of branch bank- ing or opposed to it, the fact remains that the law, as interpreted by D. R. Crissinger, controller of the currency, permits national banks to establish branches. And s0 long as state banks are per- mitted to do a branch business it cannot be claimed in justice that na- tional banks should be deprived of equal rights. Sentiment has always been strong against chain banking, as represented by numerous banks in as many dif- ferent citles under one control. Such a system permits of juggling of funds, particularly in emergencies, and actual conditions of the banks in the chain can only be obtained by an examination of all the links at the same time. Moreover, there is always the added danger of defalcation of such a seri- ous character that the chain itself would be in danger. One after an- other banks in such a chain have D. C., proviso gives stability to an invest- ment impossible to & bond fssue not protected in llke manner. Federal Financing. Conditions In the market for gov- ernment securities seem to give as- surance that the Treasury will not undertake long-term financing to meet the large maturities coming due with December 15-30. In order to make a successful flo- tation of long-term bonds a rate hirh enough to make the loan attractive would be necessary, and Secretary Mellon is too good a banker to pay excessive interest at a time when the money market gives no sign of any- thing more than temporary strength with the prospet of lower Tates after the release of the January dividends. interest and other payments, which will amount to several million dollars. The chances are that there will be no federal financing with December 1, but that about the middle of De- cember Treasury oertificates will be {ssued bearing 8% to 4% per cent, with probably six months to a year maturities. The action of the 414 per cent bonds, the most recent flotation, now been known to explode, with serious|selling at 99.44, would seem to pre- iosses to many. Illinols and its chlef city have memories of a banker named Zimr{ Dwiggens, who was at the head of a chain of banks. The last week has given Washing- ton a novelty in branch banking, in the diversion from the usual method of opening a branch in a promising neighborhood outslde the business center., The Second National “branched” un- expectedly right “In the center of the financial " district,” starting an in- novation. Just where this branch-banking business will end here in Washington cannot be stated with any certainty of realization. Preachment against it 1s like holler- ing into the teeth of a gale of wind. Sentiment {s divided, but at the same time comes the recognition that if it is falr for one It is just as falr for the other. Until some legislation is enacted in the matter branch banking is per- missible, unless prohibited by the laws of the state, and even then there {s some question. so far as nationa! banks are concerned.

Bond Methods Change. There has been a declded improve- ment fn modern methods of market- Ing bonds of late years. Time was when bond Issues were made for fifty years, more or less, with no certainty no effort to meet payment at ma- turity. Perpetnal refunding opera- tions were considered legitimate, al- though they eventually brought trou. ble in their wake—that is, in many instances.

As to Conditions. One doesn’t need magnifylng glass to understand the trend of the news in the columns of the dalily press. The story is one of unrest, discon- tent and desire for something differ- ent, some relief from existing condi- tions that are onerous, among a great part of the American people. It costs too much to live. There is an entire lack of relationship b tween cost of production and price received and price pad by the con- sumer for the necessities of life. There is also an entire inequality between wages and salarles. with keen dissatisfaction on the part of ‘hose receiving salarie Abroad, the downs were not jammed down when they werc put ther Hence it is that Turkey and Bulgd ria are making trouble abroad, and Russia, and possibly Germany threaten to reopen hostilitles some of these fine days—three for revenge and the fourth, the “great bear,” just excitable, but not inclined to breed trouble. = Abroad they are fraught vith dynamite. Under the circumstarces it is noth- ing more than natural that the public should be sidestepping Wall street. At that, Babson and the Brookm're Jervice both see favorable develop- ments ahead for the market. Stocks have suffered quite a re back the last two weeks. following some heavy distribution of shares by pools and insiders who followed this up by trades on the short side of the market. The result was a series of declines with a weak closing yesterday and a iack of rallylng power that may bring further recessions. ‘Whether or not it is the culminating point of the long rise that started about the middle of June, 1921, Te- mains to be seen. Many traders are out of the mar- ket and are waiting for receasions of importance before getting in again The pools have very gener- ally distributed their holdings.
