radio record TO RE SET ON HOOVER RETORH Wellington, Dec. 13 'U.R)‘ —A tiie.>i r#( . nr ,| Tor transTnlftlfiK lengthy messes between battle ships nml the N ' avy Department will be set when President-elect Hoover starts up the roast of South Ametlca on t lt • ■ rtah, rapt. S. r. H'joper, Director of y„v 9 l Communication*, sahl today. For the Utah, he explained, has j apparatus which is modern to tin last degree and Is capable of transmitting messages over much lonpre-r distances than the Maryland, the vesSP I that carried Mr. Hoover down the I West coast. Communication with the Maryland wa , maintained through a relay stalion at Balboa, C. 7.. Kven then some difficulty was experienced In getting day messages through. When the Utah takes Hoover on board al Montevideo late this month, it will be mote than 6,000 miles from Washington. Nevertheless, Captain Hooper expects to maintain communication with the ship without the aid of a relay station. This distance, 6,000 miles, it was pointed out, is as great as that from Washington to the customary station of the Asiatic Fleet In tile Pacific. And communication with our far eastern war vessels is had only through relay stations. The Maryland, Captain Hooper said, sends messages from a high frequency set on a wave length of 8,000 kilo-cy-cles or 40 meters. The Utah's wavelength, however, is only 20 meters, which permits a much longer send'ng range. The Utah may he three days out of Montevideo before radio messages can he exchanged satisfactorily during the day, Captain Hooper rental ked. But in the dark hours, which are more friendlv to dario waves, messages will l>“ send on the first night Hoover is at sea. The mere interchange of radio messages over a distance of 6,000 miles is no new achievement, Captain Hooper made clear. But to send over this space several thousands words a day most of them in news dispatches, will be a record for the Navy. LINN GROVE NEWS George iSlauson. of Detroit, Mich.,
