liquor on American ships outside the

So long as Mr. Lasker la able to
maintain his position—that an Amer
ican ship Is not American territory
after It passes the three mile limit—
thousands of thirsty and grateful
Americana will patronize the shipping
board vessels. If and. when he la

One of the greatest advantages of
wireless telephone receivers is that an
elaborate or expensive aerial is not
required. Although good sets with
vacuum bulb detectors may be used
with an indoor aerial, or even wltft
a bedstead or wire springs as an
aerial, yet an outside aerial will al
ways give better results. As I have
already mentioned, a single wire will
do as w;ell ap several,“The maUT thing
being to get the aerial
long and high in order
to catch waves which
are not Interrupted or
Interfered with by sur
rounding buildings,
steel bridges, electric
wires and similar ob
jects. Next, or rather
most Important, Is to
have the aerial and
lead-in thoroughly In
sulated from all sur
rounding objects, for
even wood, when damp,
U an excellent conduct
or. The best material
for an amateur aerial
for receiving Is a
stranded phosphor
bronze or copper wire,
about No. 14, although
solid copper wire, cop
per-covered steel wire
or even insulated cop
per wire will serve ev
ery purpose. For in
sulators, use porcelain
cleats. These may be
used 1 both where the
lesd-tn is attached to
walla or other objects, and where the
serial wire la attached to the sup
ports or guys. The accompany

! tag holes for attachment. Where the
lead-in wire enters t^£ building It
should be of rubber insulated vfIre and
may be brought In at the corner of
a window, either by cutting a small,
groove or by Jamming the window
down until the wire flattens and Is
burled partly in tlje wood. All Joints

results, be sura to run your lead-lo

Atslnat rmhlbltlon InsUta that the
Volstead act be enforced to the limit.
In the hope and expectation that It
will thus be proved 90 unpopular that
It will be rescinded. Wayne R.
Wheeler, counsel fotythe Anti-Saloon
league, reiterates the league's position
•concerning the three-mile limit, hold
ing that liquor cannot legally he sold
on American vessels anywhere; hut
he says the Busch attack la “simply
on 'effort to discredit prohibition and
•create sentiment for the sale of beer,"
and he thinks the shipping hoard can
take care of Itself. Prohibition Com
missioner Haynes admits there has
been a difference of opinion as to
whether the. Volstead act applies to
vessels outside the three-mile limit.
That is does not so apply Is held by
counsel for the shipping board, accord
ing to Mr. Lasker, and he adds:
“Both from the standpoint of legal
'right and from the standpoint of the
life and security of our national mer
chant marine the shipping board has
permitted, and will continue to permit,
the serving of liquor on its ships, so
long as foreign ships are allowed to
■enter and depart from our shores ex-
•ercising that privilege.'*
I N CONGRESS the results of the con
troversy may be more serious be-
-cause, as -has been said already, the
ushTp subsidy legislation is likely to get
mixed up In the tangle. Senator Willis
•of Ohio s . Republican, and one of the
most ardept dry lenders, said It wus
about time for the “prohibitloa navy”
to turn Its guns on the American mer
chant marine, and that the ship sub
sidy bill about to come up offered an
excellent and timely legislative vehicle
for action to end the sale of liquor on
whips operated by the government.

purler*, beginning June 26.
First the attitudes of Great Britain
and France must be harmonized. At
present these are diametrically op-
p*«sed. The British want Europe to
forget the war; to do away wRh Inter
national debts; to conciliate the van
quished states and make concessions
to them; to Jolly soviet Russia; and
generally to base the new Europe
largely on economic Interests and com
pel the smaller states to enter Into
agreements accordingly. The French,
as desirous ns the British for peace
and stable conditions, belft-ve the war
cannot be forgotten; and that Interna
tional obligations should be fulfilled as
far as possible. They want the new
order maintained by physical force
and the alliances re-enforced and
gradually extended to Include all of
Europe. As #6r Russia* they Insist, as
they did at Genoa, that suitable
guarantees must be supplied by the
soviet government, and the memor
andum of May 11 withdrawn before
offlclal relations are renewed.
It Is probable that a proposal will
he made to Russia that a commission
be permitted to Investigate economic
condition there. If they maintain their
present attitude, this will likely be
rejected. The bolshevik leaders are
quite unyleldlof, asserting that their
attitude at The H^gue will be the
same as at Genoa, amT that the only
possible concessions/ to foreign capital
will be on the basis of the recently
enacted laws governing private
property. ^Thelr publicity man, Karl
Radek, said the conference at The

T HE AMERICAN FEDERATION
OF LABOR, in session in Clnrln-
iiuti, once more turned down the Jdea
of the “one big union" plan, which
Gom|»ers and his supporters have so
far successfully combated. The Chi
cago Federation of I^ahor was leading
In the etlort to put over an amalgama
tion of allied unions so that there
would be only one union In each In
dustry. The delegates to the conven
tion decided thftt the whole force of
the federation'fchall be directed toward
the elimination of child labor in the
United States, a crusade In which-they
will find few to oppose them outside,
of the southern* states. They also
adopted n resolution declaring that the
ship subsidy bill should be condemned^
ns inimical to the public interests and
destructive to the nation’s hopes and
aspirations for sea power. In an ad
dress to the convention Senator La-
Follette of Wisconsin made .a warm at
tack on the Supreme court and some
of its recent decisions. He proposed
an-amendment, to the Constitution de
nying - the power of lower courts to
set aside a federal law as unconstitu
tional, and providing for the nullifica
tion of any such decision by the
preme court by re-enactment of the
statute. —--r' •. -

Aerials are most peculiar affairs and
a little experimenting will enable you
to determine the best size, height and
type to use. It Is well known that
wireless waves are directive, or in oth

This has been largely-obviated in up-

five feet under the surface of the

you use for a ground as how good
the connections are and how well the
object Is grounded. Do, not use an

and sure of your grounding.
