LONDON, July 23—Only nine days remaln before the expiration of the THE Changes in Moon Bring W ave of Freak |GOURSE IS OFFERED Letters on Radio to Commerce Chiefs This is the season of freak letters to the radio section of the Department of Commerce. In today’s mail there were a number of hysterical com- plaints, one of them, written by a roman, describing in circumstantial Getail a scheme by which a master crook was said to be using one of the big broadcasting stations of the coun- y to send information and instruc- s to robber s. Two other let- ters which attracted special attention complained of the spreading of insults and slander by broadcasters. Willlam E. Downey, radio expert of the department, has been watching | and analyzing the freak mail. He says it comes in waves once a month, with week there will be daily reports of strange broadcasts and violent com- plaints of various kinds, then the mail will drop down to normal until time for the next wave. Practically all of the letters are answered and when they are at all rational the depart- ment investigates the complaints. So far as mafl from normal radlo fans is concerned, the number of com- plaints against interference continues to decrease. Instead of protesting so much about heterodyning waves and spark sets, the listeners have begun to send the department their opinions of the announcers and programs. Un- til recently such comunications went almost exclustvely to the broadcasters IN GAS ENGINEERING ‘Washington Gas Light Co.

It will therefore be pos- sible to secure ultimately from the university men technically trained in 8as engineering, including, such branches s the mannfacture, distribu- tion, utilization and service of gas, Just as it now is possible for the com: pany to secure men technically trained in other engineering lines. “In order to establish this course in gas engineering on a permanent basis and give to young men of ambition and ability an opportunity to prepare for desirable positions in an important and expanding business, the company is now offering a scholarship for this course, to be awarded in September, 1925, at the opening of the second year of the course.” Address Communications to THREE TINY BROTHERS ON MIDNIGHT JOURNEY Tell of Hunt for Mother When Discovered on Railroad Near Germantown, Md.
