F,, provides for the estab- lishment of a service of super-Zeppe- lins to Australia. This has been plac- ed before the alr ministry, and there is every prospect of its adoption.

Experiments, Washington, July 10.—Interference by differept radio transmitting sta- tions, the bane of the radio opera- tor's existence, may be largely elim- inated as a result of a series of ex- periments conducted by physicists at the United States Bureau of stand- ards. The experiments deal with two main factors, directional antennae for transmitting and receiving, and the use of exceedingly small wave lengths. With few exceptions radio com- munication has been conducted on wave lengths of not less than 200 me- ters, and there has been comparative- ly little experimentation on shorter lengths. 'The Bureau experimenters are using a ‘wave length of only ten meters, The directional antennae used ap- ply virtually the same principles in- volved in the searchlight. The waves from a small generating set are re- flected by a parabolic reflector of hanging wires, and just as the search- | light sends a narrow beam of light in parallel lines for a long distance, so does the parabolic reflector collect and send out in almost parallel lines the radio impulses. At least 75 per cent of the radiated power is said to be confined to an angle of 50 degrees. The apparatus as constructed is small, but strong signals have been & recelved from it at a distance of two mniles, using a single turn coil anten- Miss Evelyn Gordon, daughter of U. S.

London, July 10.—While no one in a responsible official position will talk for publication it is known that in certain quarters there is a feeling that England should help Germany if the Reich’'s condition is as weak as the French helieve it to be. Britain, in the opinfon of these au- thorities, could hardly afford to lose German trade and therefore the utter collapse of the Reich would be disas- tron Satisfaction over Premier Baldwin's | promise of a statement on the repara- tions question is generally manifest press and numerous attempts have been made to penetrate official | By secrecy.
