"GET TERMS IN PRISON. Two Sentenced for Thefts From Steamboat Company “Ellis Wells and John P. White, coloréd, were sentenced Friday. Justice Bailey in Criminal Divi- sion 2 to sérve two years in the peni- tentiary following their plea of guitly of atealing certain articles from the orfolk and Washington Steamboat ‘ompany. William J. Wells, also col- who admitted disposing of some of the articles, knowing them to be stolen, was given a like sentence. All thres were placed on probation by the court because of their previous £00d character. Pleading guilty to a charge of vio- ating the anti-narcotic law, Frank A Fleishman was sent to Occoquan for one year today by Justice Bailey.

S. N. (Copyright, 1923.) Picking “dots dashes” out of space ,is the businiess of the radlo operator. Plcking music, lectures and other forms of entertalnment out of the alr is the favorite amusement of the radio fan. It is this principal difference which distinguishes the former from the latter, although the radio operator must have other special quallfications besides his ability to read and write, or, in other words, to send and re- velve the language of radio. Obviously the radio operator can enjoy the broadcast Pmlrfl.mu as well as the radio fan—if he has time to Iisten to them—whereas to most radlo fans the “buzzings” in space of the radio language is a meaningless jum- ble of sounds. Very few radlo fans will take the trouble to learn the language of radio because to become fluent in It is as dificult as it is to master a foreign language. The professional radio operator will not give much time to radio- phone programs—unless they should be of exceptional interest or merit— even though he has leisure time for the purpose, because radlo in its various aspects is to him decidedly other than romantic. To the regular government and commercial radio operators, radlo is an agency which always demands strenuous menta] effort on his part, and it frequently happens that strenuous physical effort is required as well as part of his daily task. This, of course, applles more par- ticularly to the radio operators who day and night man our radio stations on shipboard and on shore, and some- times on aircraft. and who are re- sponsible for keeplng their stations in efficient working order and get- ting thelr messages through regard- less of difficultles, rather than to the many thousands of juvenile amateur radio operators who strive for results among themselves, but who are not held to account if they do not achieve them. ‘When the professional radio op- erator finishes his day he loglcally seeks relaxation through other means than radio. The dot and dash lan- guage of radlo is the one medium of expression common to all languages. All Languages Same. An American radio operator who understands only English will read- fly copy messages sent in German by German operators, in French by French operators, or in Spanish b; Spanish operators for example, an they will be exact reproductions of the messages as sent although their meaning will be unintelligible to the American operator and intelligible only to those who can read the lan- guage in which the message was originally written. Likewise, the American operator will correctly transmit messages written in forelgn languages which he does not understand, or he will experience no difficulty in trans- mitting messages in English to for- eign stations manned by operators Trho do not speak or understand Eng- sh, This feature constitutes one of the outstanding advantages which radio- | telegraphy possesses over tadio-tele- { phon eclally with respect to i i tercourse between natlons of different | 1anguages. An American who speaks and un- derstands only English, for example, will not make much headway by en deavoring to converse by radio-tele- phony directly with a Frenchman who 8Speaks and understands only French. It {s doubtful even whether Ameri- cans in the United States could freely converse with Englishmen in Eng- land. due to the differing accents and mannerisms of speech, as exemplified Within the short perlod of a year, radio, heretofore a thing for amateurs only, has now become a family neces- sity. All radio enthusiasts may well‘ take pride in the fact that the present | tendency in the radio feld is away from the amateur experimental stage. The reason for this is plain. In the short period of less than one year since radio has taken hold of the American public, there has been a most remark- able acceptance of radlo as a means of communication. This acceptance on the part of the American public is nothing short of marvelous. Science has again demonstrated in radlo that it can per- | form miracles for the benefit of the| human race. i H In the case of the’ printing press, it| was almost centuries before the benefits were passed on to the people at large. Tn the case of the wire telephone many years elapsed before there was a general | acceptance on the part of the public of this invention, Aerial transportation is slowly coming to the front. With the radio, however, the demonstrations in the past year, in the way of broad- casting of public gpeeches, information of an educational nature, news and music, have exceeded the fondest hopes of_the pioneers. Radio has gone far bevond the prov- ince of the amusement stage, and will perhaps go down in history as one of the few revolutionary devices bringing happiness and joy to countless millions in the way of educatlonal instruction, entertainment and as a means of dis- tributing the news of the world to the people in their homes.

On the other hand American and French radio operators. for example, will experlence no difficulty in e changing messages through space In their respective tongues through the medium of the radio code, and while neither may be understood by the other, nevertheless, the communica- tions ‘will be correctly transcribed for those who understand the languages in which the messages were originally written. 7 Unaftected by Speech. In the case of American and Eng- lish operators no difficulties what ever will be experienced due to accet. uation and mannerisms of speech as the radio code is impervious to these. The alphabet of the radlo language consists of combinations of dots and dashes corresponding to the twenty- six letters of the Roman alphabet and seven other combinations correspond- ing to the accented letters of the Ger- man, French, Spanish and Scandi- navian languages. Ten other combi- nations correspond to the numerals, while twenty-one other combinations comprise the ordinary punctuation and other signs used in correspon- dence. This makes sixiy-four dot and dash characters with which the radio oper- ator must become sufficiently familiar as to be as second nature to him. He must master this code so that he can rapldly convert correspondence into it without special mental effort as he transmits messages through space on the one hand, and interpret the incom- ing signals into their corresponding lan- guage on the other hand. There are also some seventy-five special International signal groups cach consisting of combinations of three or four letters, which are in daily use throughout the word. and which must also become as second nature to the radio o) or. For example, if an operator at & cer- tain station finds ti the signals from a distant station which is endeavoring to communi with him, due to heavy atmospherics or statie, he does not engage in a length explanatory conversation, but simpl makes the internationul signals QRT QRN. These brief signals signify to the sending operator to “stop sending” as “heavy static prevalls at the receiving station” and the operator cannot copy the messages through the interference. Not An Eany Task. Obviously the mastering of all these dot and dash letters, numerals, punc- tuations, special signals, etc., by the young men who man our radio stations is other than an easy task. The asp ing radlo operator must have persever- ance and engage ynstant practice ay for intervals of from four to - even apti- for the work. rarely happens that an aspiring operator falls to become a proficient “sender,” although the quality of his sending may be poor and therefore diffi- cult to read should he not have good control of his wrist. It not Infrequently happens that the aspiring operator fails aster the more difficult of ‘“receiv: " however, and consequently gives up_in despair. The international radio code is known as the Continental Morse code. It is an adaptation of the original Morse code as developed In Eurcpe after the fn- auguration of land wire telegraphy in the United States by the American in- ventor, Morse. Approximately churacters in the code differ from Morse code us used elegraph_compan The construction code is superior for telegraphing through space. as static interference af- fects it less adversely than the Ameri- can code. The American code permits more rapid sending by hand, however; hence we employ both codes, whereas in Europe and other parts of the world only the Continental code is used for all ‘purpose number of nental Morse > in the American our land LOCAL RADIO GOSSIP the large broadcasting stations throughout the coun have broades noted opera, n ing to C.

Fewer Stations Suggested. Fewer statlons will go @ long way toward wiping out the evils of radio. according to opinion gathered in ali parts of the country by the National Radio Chamber of Commerce. The chamber ,as a part of its plan to find a solution of the problem of broad- {casting, called the one outstanding difficulty of the radlo industry, sent a_questionnaire to persons represent- in all phases of the art. The results were made known ves. terday In a statement by Ralph ‘Watrous, a member of the speclal com. mittee appointed to make . nation- wide study of the broadcasting sit: ation, and former lleutenant g0 ernor of Rhode Island. yThe inquiry revealed an insistent pdblic demand for hetter programs. “The response,” said Mr. Watrous, “pointed the way in several dire tions very clearly. Most prominent of all was th eldea of ‘fewer broad- casting stations with better pro- grams’ No exact number of sta- tions ‘was generally recommended: and this could not well be, as the range of statlons is so rapldly changing, both as to their efiiclency and also as to the steadily increasing receiving range of more efficient re- celving ~sets. But that progress vould be more rapld when we real- the necessi for fewer stations seems a perfectly safe deduction ifrom the auswers to the question- natre. i Question of Expense. | The matter of ‘better programs’ {eems to be very naturally related in the minds of those answering to the expense of furnishing really good programs, but it does mot seem to matter who pays for it or how. The more people who can be served by a single station the less, of course, the expense per listener. ' This economic Qquestion is & very serfous one and, in the Interests of the general radld public, must be dealt with very care- fully. ' However, of course, the peo- ple as a whole interested in radio must finally in some way pay the bill. { “Another matter clearly brought fout by the questionnaire was that proper legislation should be enacted in Congress that would not only safe- guard ‘our federal departments, but give to Secretary Hoovers depart- ment the power to 8o regulate radlo, and broadcastin ¢ In particular, that atest service-shall b, by the greatest number. pe It would seem that the question- naire also clearly indicates a line sep- aration between public broadcasting stations from the stations operated largely In experimental work by our amateurs, who served such a useful purpese during the war and who have ! done much constructive work.
