There Adventures of By FREDERIC Rad| No. 5.—Mr. Hoove Herbert Hoover is the commander- in-chief of the air, as far as the United States is concerned. That is to say, such Government regulation of radio comes within the juris- diction of the De- partment of Com- merce. Uncle Sam supervises wave lengths, grants li- censes for broad- casting stations and keeps general tab on radio de- velopments. But Government con- trol begins and ends right there. Otherwise the air is as free as the birds that wing through It. Hoover insists that radio, if it is going to 1ts ncalculable possibilities, must ever remain free. The Secretary of Commerce himself is a fan. He tells me his interest sprang from the interest his own boys displayed in radio three or four years ago, before it was the rage. It was a desire to help the amateurs, rather than the. big broadcasting concerns, that en- listed Hoover's enthusiasm. EEEE I've been what Senator “Jim” Reed of Missouri calls_a “scribbler” (and not always a $25-a-week scribbler) for many yea and long since learned the necessity of welghing words before printing them. But an experience of only 1% years on the air has taught me the uEgent neces- sity of pondering them well on the radio, too. The broadcaster finds the as full of pitfalls and pockets as aviators do. The flareback from & misstatement or even a statement of indisputable fact is immediate and imme The air is as crowded with hecklers as a political meeting.

In tion lies danger. I am not ermough of a weather-beaten public eaker to take chances. I read from very carefully prepared notes. I am all day preparing them.

I must do so to say my piece within the span of time assigned me. My watch Is always before me. If I find the “enemy” is marching ahead, re- gardless of the pearls of wisdom 1 have not yet cast (or broadeast), I step on the accelerator. 1 put on an- other speed. I never realized the clip at which I sometimes go till a short- hand reporter tried to take me down in front of his own “super.” He came around pext morning, dejected and bedragsled. I gave it up after the first three minutes,” he said. “You were tearing -off 300 words a minute, and that's faster than almost any <horthander can cope with. * ok x % billet-doux has reached realize rrective missive is No me in THE.

During the week of the Mystic Shrine convention, ini. 1923, you bravely intrusted yourself to my care for a brief 40 minutes In the alr over the Potomac River beyond Mount Vernon. It has been my lot to be attached to the Naval Afr Station at Anacostia since the first of the year. In this short time your radio talks have repaid me a millionfold. Mrs. Henderson jolns me in an earnest request that you continue your articles at least once a week. G. R. HENDERSON, Lieut., U. S. Henderson is as gallant a pilot as ever steered a plane. He made me sign a blank before he “shoved off,” saying where my remains were to be sent “in case anything happens,” but I'm willing to go through the same formality, with him at the wheel, any old time. If he'll take me up again I'll broadcast “The Situation in the Air Tonight.” * ok kK Perplexity, thy name caster.

If ever a Senate was thoroughly and soundly rebuked by the whole people the last Senate received just such a trouncing for its ob- structive tactics—in the over- whelming landslide for President Coolidge * * * I say this not to instruct you.

STAR, WASHINGTON, GOULD'S EGOTISM BLAMED FOR LOSS Counsel for Sister Svays Lines Should Have Netted $30,- 000,000 More. By the Associated Pr NEW YORK, March 28—Vanity on the part of the late George J. Gould prevented the liquidation of the Gould interests in the Missourl Pacific Rall- road at an opportune time and caused a loss to the estate of $30,000,000 which might have been avoided, Philip Miller, counsel for the Duchess de Talleyrand, | formerly Anna Gould, said yesterday in the hearing of the $82,000,000 account- ing suit of the estate of the late J. Gould. “For several years, from 1900 on.” Mr. Miller said, “the Gould interests in the Missouri Pacific could have been sold profitably. Byt this sale was not even contemplated. ¥ George was feeling his oats. He was going to make a lot of money and double the fortune. He feared neither Harriman nor the devil.” Mr. Miller declared that George Gould's thirst for pawer had led him to pit the 'Gould Missouri Pacific System against E. H. Harriman's Union Pacific Line. The Goulds eventually lost con- trol of all the lines left to his children by Jay Gould in 1892. Estate Fallx $2,000,000. TOMS RIVER, N. I, March The estate of the late George J. Gould decreased more than $2,000,000 last year, according to an accounting filed with Surrogate Fogs. The total of the estate at the close of 1924 was fixed at $14,203,696.76. Heavy administration expenses and decline in bond values were given as the cause of the decrease. Total charges for administration the estate during the year were § TODAY'S AMUSEMENTS.
