CONVENTION RUSH MAY BEEXPECTED New Home of Chamber of - Commeree of United States ‘Will Add Needed Facilities. ‘Washington's prestige as one of the foremost convention cities - of the Nation is expected to be enhanced with the opening of the new home of the Chamber of Commerce of the United States, October 1. The more than 700 trade organiza- tions affiliated with the national cham- ber are to be urged to hold their an- nual conventions in Washington and will be offered the unusual advantages of the new building of the chamber free of charge, the chamber announced today. The new building is at the corner of Connecticut avenue and H street, and will house'all the activities of the national organization, which now occupies a large part of the Mills building at Seventheenth and Penn- €eylvania avenu ‘The process of mo 2 the office equipment from the pres- ent” quarters of the chamber to its new home will be begun the last week of Septembe: For many years the annual meeting of the chamber which have been held in Washington have been forced to £0 to hotels, as the chamber has had To room large enough to seat the delezates from the more than 1.400 organizations in its membership. This feature has been amply taken care of in the new building which has a large auditorium capable of seating many hundreds of persons, while there are in the building several committee rooms with a seating capacity of from one to three hundred. Annual con- ventions of the chamber have not always been held In Washington, but when they were held here, a hotel auditorivm was used The first convention to be held in w home of the chamber will be 15 of secretaries of trade as- tions this Fall. The chamber plans to co-operate with the Wash- ington Board of Trade and Chamber of Commerce in procuring conventions for ‘Washinzton, and will offer its audi- torium and committee rooms for this purpose.

Rapid inerease in the use of radio on farms during the past year is shown in a special survey made by the United States Department of Agriculture. It is estimated that there are now more than 370,000 radio sets in use on farms, as compared with 145,000 a year ago. The survey was made among coun- ty agricultural agents, Reports from 833 county agents placed the aggre- gate number of radio sets in their counties at 108,710, or an average of 130 sets per county. Projecting the average of 130 per county for all of the 2,850 agricultural counties in the United States yields an estimate of 370,600 radio sets in use on farms throughouy the country as a whole, as compared with a similar estimate of 145,350 sets a year ago. The radio market news service of the United States Department of Agriculture has been developed rap- idly during the past three years until mow it is possible for farmers in practically all parts of the country to receive daily market quotations and reports on agricultural conditions, RADIO’S BEST OFFERINGS TONIGHT.

NEW YORK.—Lest Sunday was a big day at Coney Island. Six hundred thousand people reach- ed the sands, One hundred and forty-njne chil- dren were reported to the pélice as lost. e Eighteen of them were ngmed Co- hen. Speaking of bootlegging, as mo of s are, & frienw in the legiti- mate end of the alcohol industry— there I8 a legitimate ond—tells me that a man over in Jersey has just s0ld his third bottle-labeling ma- chine to a manufacturer of synthetic & 0w many labels does each ma- chine attach per minute?” I asked.

Bt this infant industry seems to be a lusty ope. New York's eit administration may build ornamental stairways that begin and end nowhere and plan two- billipn-dollar tunpels that connect With nothing, but now and them it has its bright maments. - It has juat decided not to take awiy the South- ern Pacific'a piers on Went street in order to build a municipal market. In the bad old days we would have sniffed the air at the suggestion that the city wished to take piers away from a rich railroad company. Now- adays we are too refined and good to sniff. Maybe the city administration discovered that on more than one oc- casion—such as recent embargoes of railroads—New York's daily food de- pended on the S. P.'s steamers from New Orleans. Mavbe, too, It is no longer amusing to_bait railroads. Here are a few hard official facts on_a subject often loosely discussed: Each year 45,950,000 visitors come to New York. This is an average of 121,000 a day.* Of these, 100,000 o to hotels, the rest being entertained by friends who talk about them after they have gone home. The bhotel. vis- itors average $4 a day for their rooms. Excellent double rooms with baths cost about $10 a day in the bet- ter hotels. It is possible to live in comfort, almost luxury, see every- thing 1n’'New York, and mot spend more than,$10 2 day.

New York taxicabmen had to follow suit. Now another out-of-town man has pushed the starting price down to a dime and the costs in his cab rise by nickels. Other cabs must eventu- ally follow. What ruins the visitor to Londen and Paris is the abominable and in- credible cheapness of the cabs. (Copyright, 1924.) — COLORED CANDLES IN CHINA. at Weddings and Gala Events, From the Kansas City Star. While both domestie and imported candles are extensively sold in China, their uses by the Chinese are distinct. The imported candle is preferred for illumination, and it is almost exclu- sively used for this purpese. The Chinese-made preduet, unlike the for- eign candle, which is usually white, comes in a’ variety of shapes, sizes and colors, red being the most gen- eral. The red candle is used for cere- monial purpeses, at weddings and at other la events. In recent years foreign candles stained red have been imported to aid in filling the demand at what is per- haps the world's greatest candle- burning event, the Chinese New Year. Those of plain white take their place in funeral ceremonies at the death of elderly persons, and those of light blue or green are to be seen at fu- neral services held for younger per- sons. At weddings candles decorated with wax flowers are used, as well as others made {into figures of the dragon and the phoenix, propitious signa for newly mairied couples. In these the wiok i»s made of reeds or grass, - Red I Used —————e POWDER SUPPLY BURNS. $300,000 Loss Sustained in Blaze in Honolulu. By the Associated Press. HONOLULU, September 13.—As a spectacular final to Defense Test day the powder magaxine at Schofleld barracks, mear here, ignited early this morning, apparently spontane- ously and in two hours had com- pletely burned out. The loss was es- timated at $300,000. Leviathan to Go in Dook. BOSTON, September 13.—8hipping Board officials here were notified to- day that the lner Léviathan would be drydocked in Boston for propeller repairs immediatély after her arrival in New York from Southampton Sep- tember 22. It was. understood: that at least one new propeller would be installed in the giant steamship. Apparently many fans and owners of broadcasting and amateur stations believe that Herbert Hoover can do anything, judging from the curious requests reaching the head of the OCommerce Department or the desk of his aide, Chief Supervisor of Radio W. D, Te ry day some unusyal let- ter eemes to radio headquarters at Washington or is forwarded from a district supervisor. The last ques- tion, which caused considerable com- motion, came over the telephone. 1t was: “What kind of a detector should be used on a crystal set?” Here is another: “In building a ‘blank’ set should the capacity of my condenser be one or two quarts?” Technical questions, when practical, are answered, but the Commerce offi- clals are supposed to handle adminis- trative matters only and are kept busy at that. Many broadcasters want their ini- tials as the call letters for their sta- tions, not realizing that this country is assigned only three initial letters, W K and N by the internationa Bern bureau. Even then, we do not et all the calls beginning with these letters; part of the K calls are as- signed abroad. If one's first name begins with one of the three lettérs there is one chance in a million that the other letters can be found among the unused national calls, There are 4,812 calls In use today out of a pos- sible 50,000 combinations. Some of the broadcasters were lucky and got call letters which were slgnificent of their names. It be- gan when the official who designates call letters assigned KOP as the call of the Detroit police station. Then came the Radio Corporation station in Washington, which selected the abandoned ship call WRC, Indicative of Washington Radio Corporation; WRCA wag not available. The Chesapeake and Potomac Telephone Company succeeded in getting WCAP, equally significant of its loca- tion and name. WNP—Wireless North Pol s given MacMillan for his polar cruise. Later on, WGN was assigned to the Chicago Tribune which advertises itself as the World's Greatest Newspaper, and, finally, WNYC, BuPposed to signity Wireless New York City, was granted as the official call of the new municipal sta- tion. It can’t go much farther: the call man says, “There is a limi he can't possibly please everybody nor shift calls areund until they fit stations. Bome bréadcasters also desire ex- clusive wave lengths, regardless of whether or not they can qualify as a high-powered olass B station, or whether the wave lengths in their zones are already assigned on a time basis between two or three stations. A number of amateurs who own powerful transmitters want interna- tional call letters, so that they can be identified abroad, and this question will soon have to be taken up inter- nationally. Our 16,645 amateur calls, all prefaced by a figure significant of the districh, are similar to those of other amateurs. This is sure to cause confusion if long-distance work con- tinues to extend beyond the bound- aries of a country. Owners of receiv- ing sets often ask that notices of lost relatives and even pets be broadcast. The first has been done with success, The only lost pet reported as found by radio broadeast, however, was the White House cat,” although perhaps Commissioner Carson's mulecs, which were returned soon after thelr de- scription was broadcast, also come in this category. Correspondents of the radio section have asked for special codes and lan- suages, one individual offering to show Becretary Hoover an entirely new method of international commu- nication by a universal coMe. Although broadcasters have agreed yanimously to refrain from broad- casting pure advertising, some sta- tions seem a bit uncertain as to just where to draw the line, so this ques- tion arises again. Fortunately, the department was not forced to forbid the broadcasting of criminal trials and such proceedings, due to the fact that a learned judge was fit to keep | radio signals from high-powered land such matters off the alr. . It is seen that not all the questions are foolish, however, and, with the marvelous expansion of radio and its new applications, the officials have to consider all requests carefully. Should licenses be granted for the transmission of radio pictures, still and moving? 'Why not? And yet, who would recelve them? No one except the experimenters, until suita- ble recelving apparatus is on the market. This type of message or communication will require a wave channel which many other services may want or need. This is one of the serlous questions which require immediste thought. Radio pictures are practieal and, while not on the air yet, they would undoubtedly create Interferénce in the channels now In use. The transmission of power by radio is mentioned, which is an even harder problem to solve. Besldes the 533 land broadcasting stations there are about six portable broadeasting stations in operation, chiefly in automobiles. which move about the country from zone to zone and from one radio district to an- other; many more are desired. What wave lengths and hours can be as- slgned these operators? Of Jate ships are asking for broadcasting licenses and the department is hesitating to open this new fleld on account of the trouble & mobile broadcaster might cause In the well established and busy #adio channels in operation. The 8. B. leviathan tried out broad- ocasting experimentally and now de- slres a regular license, but the Ship- ping Board has not been authorized to operate a floating broadcaster yet. Some time ago a sfeamer on Lake Pontchartrain, near New Orleans, tried out a similar plan, but could not compete with land local stations. For more than a year the Al G. Barnes Circus operated a mobile broadcast- ing station, but eventually found that a portable broadcasting set was too expensive and quit. Another portable license was sought by a theatrical performer playing one-night stands throughout the country. Some of these questions, queer and otherwise, will undoubtedly he dis cussed at the forthcoming radio con- ference. Herbert Hoover will do well if he lives up to his reputation of settling arguments through vol- untary regulations, keeping the pub- tic wedded to radio without benefit of cleray or legislation Radio Mysteries at Sea. Radio is coming to play a very im- portant part in the plans of the Con- ference on Oceanography called by Secretary of the Navy Wilbur to out- line a world-wide scientific study of the seven seas and the air above them. Among the many subjects un- der consideration by this conference, now in session in the Hydrographic Office in Washington, is the improve- ment of radio communication The radio personnel of the commit- tee includes Dr. A. H. Taylor of the Navy, Dr. Louis Cohen of the Army Signal Corps, Dr. Austin of the Bu- reau of ards, Capt. Ridley Me- Lean, director of Naval Communica- tions: Brig. Gen. C. McK. Saltzman, chief signal officer, and Lieut. Col. C. A. Seaone, Signal Corps The Naval Hospital Ship Solace, ac- quired during the Spanish-American War, will be designated by the Navy as the cruising laboratory after she is recommissioned and equipped with the latest radio apparatus. The first cruise will probably start in Jul 1925, and cover the (Gulf-Caribbean area: later cruises of the American scientists or their foreign associates being planned to cover all the waters and most of the ports of the world. The chief aim of the scientist far as radio is concerned, is to re- route transoceanic radio traffic where atmospheric disturbances are found to be detrimental to direct transmis- sion. For this reason one of the prok lems is to locate and chart center of static disturban. 5o that the: may be avoided in setting up long distance circuits. At the suggestion of Dr. Cohen a special investigation will be made of static centers, hoth at sea and ashore. He has communicat- ed with the American Section of the International Union of Scientific Ra- dio Telegraphy, request further co-operation in developing plans for collecting the data desired for the solution of radio traflic problems. It is understood that attention will be given to the studs of intensities of tations when the Selace is at sea, and the co-operative efficiency of long and short wave transmissions., Although long wave lengths are used for distant transmissions today, there ig a tendency toward the use of short waves, which may be found more efficient and less expensive to use because of saving in powe Dr. Cohen points out, is an attractive fleld for experiment and may lead to the saving of milllons in costs of prerating long-distance stations. , When the Solace sails next Sum- mer, like the famous Elettra of Mar- coni, she will carry the best known radlo equipment from A to Z and a modern sonic depth finding and rang- ing apparatus. She will be équipped for transmissio and reception of radlo waves through - the alir, the earth and water. The propagation of radio waves under the water will be a special problem to be worked out with the aid of some naval sub- marines. Even the transmission of radio impulses through the solid earth will be investigated, for sci- entists are anxious to ascertain whether radio waves pass through certain geological structures or around them. ’ The projection of radio waves directionally by a process of focusing .the transmitting antenna also will be studied in the desire to establish a radio beam, like that of a searchlight, in place of the or- dinary spherical or broadoast method. The naval radio compass ised over limited distances for finding direc- tions and locating a vessel by aid of land statidns, it is hoped, can be im- proved and its range extended if a directional beam effect can be se- cured. Such an fmprovement to the radio compass might make it possible for vessels crossing the Atlantic to navigate solely with their aid, elim- inating the use of astronomical ob- servations, The co-operation of the Bureau of Standards experts and other Ameri- can sclentific radio investigators 1s assured, as well as that of Bignor Mar- coni. Powerful radio stations such as Nauen, Germany, and the Eiffel Tower in Paris will assist. Closely allied to the radlio is the sonic depth finder, which operates on sound waves. Dr. Harvey Hayes, in- ventor of the sonic depth finder, will huve charge of sound operations on the Solace. Once the vessel gets under way at sea, naval experts say, the public is assured of being kept posted on its activities and the interesting discov- eries as they are made, for she will be equipped for broadcasting, and is expected to report daily on the prog- ress of her investigations. Radio talks on various phases of the work by the several experts aboard may prove unique in the annals of radio broadeasting and of scientific inves- tigations. Field weather reports by radio will be made to the United States Weather Bureau for its information and for assistance in making forecasts. Plans for the complete survey are being worked out in the Hydrographic Office, under the direction of Capt. F. B. Bassett, president of the confe ence, assisted by Comdr. George Brandt, secretary-general, and the ex- ecutive committee of that bod Four More Stations. The Department of Commerce last week imsued licenses to four new broadcasting stations, as follows: WERO, Radio Company, Hamilton, Ohio, 250 meters. 5 watts.
