Turning to the subject of women in modern life, he prophesied they would assume dominance in the soctal order, relegating man to the position of the drone. “The awakening of the intellect of women which we #re witnessing,” he says, “will dull feminine functions and human civilization will draw closer to that of the bee.” For only 15 minutes last Sunday e to broadc 1 abrond indica “DX" fans are losing s| heu om a an wee small ation: that United State i t least nine station: ain; 2LV, Liverpool, 3M, Bournemouth, Eng- | Lima, r-old fan was ven by hearing vo-tube xet he made himse 2 I on the {.

The only two authentic reports of reception in the Capital of European programs during the first two nights of the test were made possible only after 58 minutes of comba.ing the squealers, then outlasting them and clearing up the British national an- them in the final two minutes of the hour. The receivers used by these two successful fans were built by the owners and were of a design superior to that of the average set in the average American home. Perhaps the most disappointed of the Capital's fans at being unable to catch the distant programs are the officials of the Peruvian legation, who listened intently for the signals of Lima during the test hour of both nights without success. Despite the two successive faflures to bring in the signals of efther Great Britain or South America, the Capi- tal's fans probably will be back at the head phones again for the remain- Ing three nights of the European tests, swearing at the re-radiating sets and listening hopefully to every sudden outburst of static and to every stray harmonic of legitimate traffic. RUSSIA GETS U. S. STATIONS. Musical Program From New York 1s Highly Entertaining. MOSCOW, January 26 UP).—Rus- sian radio fans heard America last night for the first time. Owing to poor atmospheric conditions, recep- tion of speech was poor, but the musi- cal part of the program was plainly audible, even on two-valve receivers. The whole country now is eagerly listening for further signals from across the Atlantic. Most of the Rus- slan fans are unfamillar with the English language, but the broadcast- ing from New York proved highly en- tertaining.
