R Js— 4 * SHORT-WAVE TESTS IN ELABORATE WAY Westinghouse Company Ex- periments With Broadcast | ' Equipment at Heavy Cost. PITTSBURGH, Pa., July 12.—Thor- oughly aware that short-wave or high- frequency wave broadcasting will bring forth the greatest future development in radio broadcasting, the Westinghouse Electric and Manufacturing Company has completed and has been operating some months now new specially designed radio experimental building, erected at a cost of several hundred thousand dolla The new building is a one-story con- crete and brick structure located on the Greensburg pike, about a mile east of the Westinghouse company’s East Pitts- burgh works. The site chosen is within a few feet of being the highest spot in Allegheny County, and is onc of the level spots available on the hills which dot the locality. The new site of the short.wave sta- tions of KDKA is in direct contract to its former location, where despite some known drawbacks, transmitting Wwith Hastings. Nceb., and England wa ried on nightly. When first installed the short-wave transmitter was located on the top of a nine-story building directly in the heart of the East Pittsburgh works. Steel buildings, known to have & decided absorbing effect on radio waves, completely surrounded the set and, in addition, it was located in a valley with hills on three sides. As a matter of fact, the main transmitter of KDKA is still lecated in the same place, and it is matter of radio history that all of KDKA's transmitting achievements have een accomplished from this set. How- cver, there is a probability that the 326 meter transmitter will be moved to this yery desirable new location. Apparatus Placed Symmetrically. The new radio experimental building has been so designed that all apparatus ained within it is located symmetri- with respect to all other apparatus The basement is divided into sev eral- rooms. The main basement chamber contains the high-power transformer plant, motor-generator filters, chokes and other apra- One of the rooms contains ner station of the Duquesne Light Company. The remainder of the basement is occupied by the bat- tery room, furnace room and storage space. Power is brought into the basement through underground ducts from two separate sources, both of which are 4,000-volt, three phase, siX- ty cycles. This current supply may be epped up or down as required. The vailable power supply is in the neighborhood of 230 kilowatts, which can be increased, however, should it be_necessary WWith this basement arrangement all bulky apparatus is located out of the transmitting room and is never in_sight. The main apparatus room on the first floor of the building, in which are located the oscillator, modulator and rectifier panels, is large and spa- cious and having windows on all four sides is well lighted by day. Rectifier in Special Frame. The rectifier which furnishes high valtage to the plates of the water- cooled tubes is mounted in a special- 1y’ designed frame so that every part of the apparatus is accessible. Re- placements and observations can be convertiently made because every part of the unit is in full view of the observor. The rectifier has a ca- pacity which can be pushed to 150 kHlowatts, if it were necessary, and is'the result of the several years ex- perimenting and pioneering of the Westinghouse Company In short-wave broadcasting. The rectifier is of the three-phase tvpe. having a tube on each side of the line or a total of six witer cooled rectifier tubes. In front of cach tube is a helix of rubber tub- ing to permit the use of city water 1o cool the tubes. On the front of the Pancl is a row of knife switches used to regulate the voltage of the trans- formers. thus governing the output of the rectifier. The oscillator panel is of the same general construction as the rectifier panel and makes use of Westing- house, high-power, water-cooled am- beranode transmitting tubes. These are not ordinarily subjected to max- imum capacity, but are usually paral- leled. Thus each tube is subjected to about half its rated capacity and an unusually long life in tubes re- sults. Another reason for paralleling tubes is that operating on the high- frequency waves causes unusual stresses and strains to_develop not encountered in the ordinary radio- asting wave lengths and some safety factor is desirable. Immediately be- hind the tubes is the tuning induc- tance. In the front of the panel are located the varios indicating meters. A8 in the case of the rectifier every part of the oscillator panel can be observed and replacements made without difficulty. The modulator panel. using the same general type of tubes, has a switching arrange- ment whereby the number of tubes uged_and the amount of power used ean be regulated. Indicating meters are mounted on the front of the panel and there is also a modulation meter which shows how strongly the energy generated by the oscillator is being modulated. Location of Control Room. Adjoining the main room and ex- tending a few fect into it is the con- trpl room. The front and extended siles of the room have glass windows 80 that every part of the apparatus room may be constantly seen by the operator. This room is equipped with amplifying apparatus consisting of tWo units, one using five-watt tubes, the other using fifty-watt tubes. The sthrt and stop control switches, line terminals, amplifying connections, ete., all are loc n this room. Thus the engineer s desk can con- trol everything in the station. He alio can i in and hear the sig- nals. thus judging them for qualit Other rooms on_the floor include the main office, sleeping room and a D. ne of the most distinctive marks of the station is the extremely unique ort-wave antenna, a special type rfected by Frank Conrad, assistant ief engineer of the Westinghouse mpany and the man who made st of the present records possible ough short-wave development. e antenna is a copper tube eracted rtically with respect to the ground d supported from a pole about fifty t high. The antenna, which has ball on its one end, is quite rigid prevent its swaying. Extremely e results have been obtained from s perpendicular t of antenna. ough only one is now installed, re will be several erected at va- us points about the station to take vantage .of the directional effects ssible through the different loc ns. High Recording Results. onderful resuits have been ob- ned from broadcasting from the n§w site of the short-wave station. an example, it is only necessary state that daylight transmitting s successfully carried on between s station and KFKX, at Hastings, Npb., in order to repeat from Has! s the Republican convention pro- ceedings at Cleveland and the Demo- cfatic convention proceedings at New York. Such a feat of daylight broad- casting would not have been belleved possible on any wave length hy radio experts a year ago.

NURMI IN THIRD A OLYMPIC VICTORY (Continued from First Page.) made 1908, The Argentine whose full name is Louis A. Brunnetto was the first South Amerfcan to gain prominence in this vear's Olympic track and field events. His first attempt broke the record set by Ahearn at the London Olympic games sixteen years ago and put the Argentine within a few inches of the world record of 15.519 meters made by Ahearn in the United States in 1909. Ahearn’s record in feet and inches was fifty feet' eleven inches and Brunetto's mark today is equva- lent to fifty feet 7 1-16 inches. The Olympie record held by Ahearn which Brunetto broke today was 4% feet 113 inches. Fouls were called on Brunetto on his second two efforts, but his first mark remained the best when the first section of the field had com- pleted its performances. Rainto, the Finnish star, jumped only 14.62 meters. by Ahearn of England in Britons Break Record. The British relay team broke the world record in the 400-meter relay race with a mark of 42 seconds flat The old world and Olympic record was 42 1-5 seconds. Great Britain's record-breaking quar- tet was given a flying start by Harold Abrahams, her sprinting ace. The team, however, ran virtually alone, as Greece, the only other starter of the heat, was distanced before the race had fairly begun. The winner's time clipped one- fifth of a second off the world mark made by the American team of the last Olympics. Two heats later Holland sprang a sensation by equaling this new relay record, alko covering the 400 me- ters in 42 seconds. Besides Abrahams, the British team was composed of W. Rangeley, W. P. Nichol and L. C. Royle. nksx Surpass Effort. The United States team broke the world record in the 400-meter relay race, sixth trial heat, making the distance in 41% seconds. beating the new record of 42 seconds flat, made earlier in the afternoon by the British team. The Americans raced like the wind to clip four-fifths of a second off the mark set by Great Britain in the first heat and equaled in the third heat by Holland. The United States team was composed of Frank Hussey, Stuyvesant High of New York, the interscholastic sprint Louis Clark of Johns Hopkins; Loren Murchison, Newark A. C., and Alfred Leconey, Meadowbrook Club. They ran in order named. Hussey, the school boy star, got off to a flying start and handed the baton over to Clark with a lead of five yards over France's team, the other competitor in the heat. Clark gained two yards in his turn and Murchison on’ the third leg added six more. On the final leg Leconey in- creased the margin over France to twenty yards at the finsh. U. S. Quartet Qualifies. The American quartet easily quali- fied among the six nations surviving for the 1,600-meter relay final, which will be run tomorrow. The American team, including J. O. MacDonald, Uni- versity of Pennsylvania; W. E. Stev- enson, American Rhodes scholar; C. P. Cochran, Olympic Club, San Fran- cisco, and Allan Hellfrich, Penn State. Finland won the 10,000-meter cross- country event as a nation, with 11 points. The United States was sec- ond with 14 points; France third, with 20 points. This result gave Fin- land 25 Olympic points and the Unit- ed States 10. It was extremely hot today and this kept down the Saturday at- tendanc. The Parislans apparently preferred the coolness of the se shore to sitting and watching the athletes perform in_sultry neighbor- hood of the city. This was a great disappointment to the French Olympic committee which had ex- pected today to be one of the big at- tendance days of the meet.

Capture of West Held Democrats’ Best Hope largely on the way the issues are crystallized., As for the individuals nominated, they will not be the vital factors that personalities were in 1912. For the Republicans and Demo- crats have nominated two strong men whose character is unimpeachable and whose integrity is beyond ques- tion. Senator La Follette, who runs on a third ticket, also is a man of rugged lupesty and capacity. Issucs, Not Personalitien. The.campaign will not turn on per- sonal fitness, but on issues. When Wilson and Hughes were the nomi- nees in 1916, the country was ready to accept either personality, but the west had a conviction that the Wil- son foreign poolicies needed to be upheld. In 1920, neither Warren Harding nor James M. Cox were themselves factors in the result. The tide of resentment against the Wil- son administration for neglecting re- construction problems at home while absorbed in foreign policy would have made the landslide as great, no matter who the Republican candidate had been. So in 1924, Calvin Coolidge the issue. The east is more or less contented from an economical view- point, and is unconvinced that change is desirable. The west in the throes of economic discontent, and ready to grasp at straws to obtain re- lief. Neither the Republican or Dem- ocratic national convention really ap- praised the western political situation at its proper value. But it is signifi- cart that John W. Davis does. He de- liberately selected Gov. Bryan of Ne- braska as his running mate as first proof of his interest Now he will campaign there. deavor to convince the west their hope lise in a Democratic con- gress and executive is not is Up to Davin Can Davis make the west feel his progressivism? Will the feeling of resentment over the record of the last Republican Congress crystallize in the west? The Republican party’s record of the last four years will be contrasted with the eight years of Democratic rule and the problem of gétting for- eign markets so as to improve the prices of farm products will be de- bated most this year west of the Mis- sissippi. 5 Agricultural questions do not wor- ry the east. The cry about neutral- ity and keeping America out of the war was a vital thing in the west‘ in 1916 at the very same moment that the east was criticizing Wilson for vacillation and praising Hughes for his straight - from - the - shoulder speeches about protecting American rights. After election the country woke up to find that the west and solid south could win an election. That's why this year one cannot dismiss lightly the chances of John W. Davis without being sure tnat the west is not on the point of revoit. Then the election of Calvin Coolidge can be regarded as a foregone con- clusion. But the Democratic oppor- tunity must first be disproved, and here is the Democratic chance—its formula of victory. If the combina- tion fails, no other will win, for the east is for Coolidge and Dawes. 200 for Davis. Here is the electoral table which, at the moment, seems to indicate the di- rection of Democratic OppOTtunity: Alabama, 12; Arizona, 3; Arkansas, 9; California, 13; Celorado, 6; Florida, 6; Georgia, 14; Idaho, 4; Indiana, 15; Kansas, 10; Kentucky, 13; Louisiana, 10; Maryland, 8; Mississippi, 10; Mis- Montana, 4; Nebraska, 8; 3; New Mexico, 3; North Car- olina, 12; Ohio, 24; Oklahoma, 10; South Carolina, 9; Tennessee, 12; Texas, 20; Utah, 4; Virginia, 12; Wash- ington, ‘West Virginia, 8; Wyoming, 3.

The electoral college consists of 531 votes, of which 266 are necessary to a choice. Mr. Davis, according to the foregoing table, could twenty- four votes and still be the victor. It will be noted that the tabulation gives Coolidge everything east of the Mississippi with the exception of Ohio, Indiana and West Virginia and the south. Davis gets everything west of the Mississippi, except Oregon, Wisconsin, North and South Dakota and lowa. In 1916 Wilson carried Ohio and New Hampshire, but neither West ginia nor Indiana. He carried orth’ Dakota, which would appear this time to be headed for the La Follette column. It will be argued immediately by stanch Democrats that the east is by no means lost to Davig, and that if Al Smith runs for vernor of New York he may swing the Empire State into the eclectoral | lost column for Davis. The Republicans will by no means concede ecither ”h\f“ or Indiana as lost to them. West Virginia, being Davis' home state, is likely 10 go Democratic.

Mr. and Mrs. McAdoo were in the uaudience and when the comedian, with his usual raillery, pointed Mr. McAdoo out, there was an outburst of applause and the lifornian was finally brought to his feet and made the following statement: “I am leaving for Europe with my mily tomorrow for a little diversion but now that the convention is over we must all get together and make sure’ that we elect a democrat.” Both actor and candidate were given an ovation following the an- nouncement. or men, was Rockwell Pledges Aid. Simultaneously with Mr. McAdoo's call late yesterday at the house of Frank L. Polk, where Mr. Davis spent the day, David Ladd Rockwell, who |had charge of Mr. McAdoo's campaign for the nomination, made public at a hotel a letter to Mr. Davis in which Mr. Rockwell pledged his support and asserted that no candidate ever had had a clearer title to a nomination than Mr. Davis. in the penitentiary, is' giving the Democrats hope. As for Ohio, Harry | Daugherty may be an issue there, just | as in the western states Teapot Dome | will be revived to the discomfiture | of the Republicans. The east already has digested the oil controversy and | forgotten it. but the west is much | more interested in conservation of natural resburces and all that goes with it. Theodore Roosevelt won the west that way, and he was by no means radical. ' Davis may make a Roosevelt plea on conservation. He will, at any rate, carry the fight into the ‘heart of thé west. It's his one big chance. Meanwhile, the rise in the price of wheat and corn is making the Re- pubiicans optimistic. The most that can be said of the campaign at its beginning is that i+ starts with a sharp line of cleavage between the contented east and a discontented west and at the moment the chances of victory for either party may be said to be even. —_— TO ASSIST RURAL CLERGY National Movement Plans Courses at Wisconsin University. MADISON, Wis., July 12.—Enlarge- ment of its scobe to include more denominations and a more extensive study program was recommended by the convention council at the con- cluding session of the national inter- church rural conference here today. The council recommended the adop- tion of a circle of courses to cover a schedule of from three to five years which would be studied by rural clergy. Under the recommendations, an- other conference will be held at the University of Wisconsin next year, similar to the one just closed. S Having spent a day at Mr. residence. crowded with calls from Democratic leaders, including. besides Mr. McAdoo, Gov. Smith and George E. Brennan, Mr. Davis plans a day of recreation today. He is going to try to reduce his golf score at the Piping Rock links, near his Locust Valley home. Like Gov. Smith, his score is 80 high that he is reconciled to the belief that a round of golf is mostly an excuse for a bath. 'His friends know the nature of his real- | 1¥ favorite recreation, for his collec- tion of walking sticks totals twenty- five, practically all gifts. « Plans Outing in Maine. Mr. Davis plans to leave next week for a vacation on the Island of Isles- boro, in Pgnobscot Bay, Me., as the guest of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Dana Gibson, if he can make a selection for national chairman by them. Mrs. Gibson's sister, Lady Astor, is among the many senders of congratulatory messages to him. She cabled: “There will be only one better day and that is the day you win.” Fourth estate makers of the light that glares on Presidents and presi- dential candidates have recovered from the sensation they hasl when a taxicab, containing W.
