They believed the ship could continue receiving the signals from the various other vessels nearby. which had bsen ordered st once to transmit bearings periodically. H Aids Direction Finding. Radio aboard submarines is used pri- marily for direction finding. It was pe- | that the submarine could make oin the fleet or proceed alone to | namo. This would be at the dis- | cre of commanding officer, | Lisut. P W. Warren 1f it was washed away or grounded the antenna could not readily be re- placed or repaired during a gale would necessitate keeping the subma- ne’s hatches tightly closed and the | crew inside. To a limited degree the | radio men might get out some signals | on the heavily insvituod antenna ex- | tending along the hull of the craft itself. Such signals like signals sent when the craft is submerged. would be | weak. Radio transmission from such specially devised antenna or while the | submarine is cruising under water is | one of the technical problems still in | an _experimental stage. When the antenna is up. the set is| Tated power input of 300 watts. whichis | derived from the power of the ship’s plant while the boat is above water or from the storage battery which is used | to propel the craft when submerged. | low f{reguencies. or long waves, are | used while the vessel is submerged. | High frequencies. or short waves, are generally emploved on the surface. The | range varies with the condition of the | antenna and with atmospherics. Sur- | face signals may be heard anywhere from 30 to 300 miles during the day- time: it is increased threefold at least at night. when all radio transmission or reception is vastly improved, as every broadcast listener knows. | Different Principle Involved. A different principle is involved en- tirely in the oscillator. with which all submarines are equipped. Whereas | radio waves are electrical impulses. the oscillators transmit or receive sound | signals carried through the water. It was the oscillator on the “lll-fated S-4 which enabled the six entrapped men to send signalt to the vessels standing | above it | One of the officers of the §-3. Lieut. Jose Cabanallas. has had radio training st Annapolis. Normally all the subsea boats carry three radio men.

By the Associated Press. NEW YORK. February 1.—“The House of the Gold Doorknobs,” as the 12-story apartment house at Fifth ave- nue and Eighty-first street is known, has changed owners. Commodore Ar- thur Curtiss James, who paid $3,000,000 for the building in 1913, one year after A These Low Prices Are Also Effective its completion, has sold the property to Benjamin Winter, real esmepeop- erator. ‘The bullding was erected by James . Lee, who told his architects he wanted a building that would be better in every respect than the finest house on the avenue. Every doorknob in the buildings is gold plated and in one apartment every hinge, door handle and the keys are of gold. It was the first apartment house in what was then the city's most fashionable residence section, and its erection was bitterly opposed. e Portugal had a bumper fig crop last year. at TELLS RETAIL HAZARDS. Merle Thorpe of Nation's Business Says Ignorant Rival Is Worst. The worst business hazard the retail- {er has to face is ignorant and unintel- ligent competition, Merle Thorpe, pub- lisher of Nation's Business, told Wash- ington radio dealers at a luncheon yes- terday in the National Press Club.
