BRITISH PREMIER MAT CHALLENGE POINCARE'S JABS J.loyd George Reported to Be Preparing Rebuttal for Bar le Due Speech. BRAND PLAN COERCIVE English Officials Maintain French Reparations Plea Is Extortion. By RALPH H. TURNER United News Staff Correspondent LONDON, Aug. 23. —Premier Lloyd George was expected to the Bar le Due speech of Premier Poincare on Wednesday, responding to the bitter thrusts of the French premier aa he proclaimed France's adherence to her present policy with regard to German reparations payments and charged Britain with responsibility for Germany's failure to pay. The occasion is the unveiling of a war memorial at Criccieth. While British authorities feel that the bulk of Poincare's Bar le Due speech was designed for home consumption. there is. nevertheless, evidence of resentment at the critical references to England made by the | French premier. Shares British Sentiment Lloyd George, it Is known, shares the general British sentiment at Poin care's accusation to the world that Britain Is responsible for Germany's failure to pay her reparations. Officials emphasize that there has never, at any time, been any plan to let Germany off. But they still maintain that the French plan Is extortion and coercion. Poincare's reference to the desirability of a conference for the settlement of war debts has served to make a meeting in Brussels in the autumn more likely. It remains for England to modify her attitude as outlined in Earl Balfour's recent note, and there are already indications that this will be done.

DEVICE AMPLIFIES VOICE It is no longer necessary to put and more stress on talk to be broadcast by radio than is used in ordinary conversation. The new speech imput amplifier, shown above, takes care of that. This apparatus amplifies the voice before it enters the transmitting apparatus. Not only is it easy to send the voice broadcast, but the transmitting operator is enabled to hear the voice directly, so that he may supervise the broadcasting. X

Loop Antenna Transmitter , Used in War , Serves Peace Time Ends

By PAUL F. GODLEY. America’s Foremost Radio Authority. Many amateurs are using the loop aerial form of transmission over short distances with great success. This type of transmitter was developed just before the armistice for use in trench warfare. Using the small tubes which are ordinarily found in the radio receiver, and loops of wire consisting of three or four turns on a square frame three feet on a side, a transmitter can easily be built to cover a range of three to six miles. The loop type of antenna is directional. It throws the bulk of lis energy in one direction. This characteristic was highly desirable since it would enable transmission up and down the trenches with small fear that the enemy would be able to pick up enough of the signal to be of any service to it. As tried in France, the system consisted of two identical outfits. Both were tuned to approximately the same RADIO PROGRAM (Indianapolis (Hatfield) VVOH.)

wave length. When the distant station went into operation, its actions were heralded by a steady whistling in the telephones of the local station. It was the same type of whistling that one often hears in regenerative receiver head phones when some broadcasting station gets into operation. The sound is the result of "beats” which take place between tbs high-frequency current sent out by the transmitter and those which are generated right in the receiver. The btat effect occurs only when there Is a difference between the two frequencies. When this whistling is heard In the local station, signaling commences. When the distant station closes its key for dot or dash, the operator hears the signal In his own telephone —a signal which he would hear if the home station were not in operation. Thus, to bieak in upon his transmission it is but necessary to stop operation of the home transmitter. Should the transmission stop suddenly, the signal that the station has either been dislodged by a shell, or that the operators have been driven away, would be given automatically.

CAPTAIN KIDD NOT BAD CHAP. COOLIE SMUCCLERSSHOW Old Pirate Rank Piker When Compared to Followers of Profession. \ METHODS ARE REVEALED ' . Chinese Aliens Brought Over From Cuba at Rate of SI,OOO Per Head. By United News WASHINGTON, Aug. 23.—Captain Kid, while esteemeed as a pirate, was a novice at smuggling compared with some modern followers of the profession, according to Immigration Commissioner W. K. Husband. In an exclusive interview with the United News, Commissioner Husband detailed the 1922 business efficiency methods employed by operators engaged In alien smuggling—methods entirely absent in the days when Kidd roamed the seas. Smuggling Reaches Heights Off the Florida Keys today, according to Husband, the smuggling of aliens has reached heights of business efficiency never reached before. The bigg'st business is being done, he said, in Chinese coolies, transported to Cuba during war days to labor as plantation hands for the sugar growing and refining industries. “Chinese who are desirous of entering the United States,” said Husband, “pay well for an opportunity to set their feet on American sooil. The current quotations in Havana, show an average price of a thousand dollars a head.” But the agreements and promises of the smugglers are sometimes sionaryHusband cited specific cases where it was shown that on occasions the smugglers secured a cargo of aliens, accepted the smuggling fee and guaranteed each customer a safe trip. Aliens Are Drugged “The outcome of these cases," Husband said, "was that the aliens were 1 drugged, taken a few miles down the ! Cuban coast and beached in a tropical jungle. The smugglers assured thefr clients that they were on American soil." A favorite landing place for the entry of aliens is Devil's Hole, off the , ; coast of Tarpon Springs. Florida- i j Here the aliens are whisked ashore j and hidden inland until a favorable | opportunity arrives for the next I | move. Motor lorries then take them j further inland to Georgia or to one | of the Gulf states. FEAR REPARATION'S I German Marks Reflect Political Outlook by Going Down. By United Press LONDON.

The scandal walk Is ancient history; its place will be taken by the waltz, fox trot and American tango. Slouchy dance postures are to be considered a mark of ignorance, not smartness. Emphasis is to be laid on the waltz.

United News Staff Correspondent PARIS, Aug. 23.—Marshal Foch is still smoking assiduously the pipes which his American admirers presented" to him In the course of his triumphal coast-to-coast progress last year.

All three were dining together on the train. After the coffee was served Poincare maliciously observed to the "good gray marshal”; "Well. Foch, you know you may light up your old pipe now. If you want to.” Whereupon Foch, drawing a magnificent case from his pocket, produced not one pipe, but two. "Why. they're magnificent" exclaimd the Premier. “Yes. they’re quite pretty," replied Foch. “They were offered to me by a group of American artists." “By the way.” pursued the Pre mier, “is it long since you took to pipe-smoking?" "Not at all." the Marshal came back. "Let’s see, my first pipe dates from July 18. 1918." "The day of the big offensive," ' "Precisely. At that- time tobacco had become so bad that I had to gi • up smoking cigarettes. Well, then, I did like everybody else. T. smoked a pipe." “And you won the war—” began Poincare. “I'm not sure that, it was because of that." tlin Marshal replied softly.

Tristan da Cunha Gets First Mail After 14 Months By United Press LONDON, Aug. 23. —Eighteen hundred miles westward from Capetown, South Africa, is a tiny spot on the map—it is Tristan da Cunha, as isolated Island in the South Atlantic, a linely outpost of the British Empire. The Islanders' wants are simple—they are white people and good British subjects—but they do think the Motherland might at least arrange for one mail a year from England. When the Rev. H. M. Rogers arrived there iast May to practice as missionary and schoolmaster, he was told that his boat, a Japanese steamer, had been the first to call in fourteen weary months. Rogers told the islanders of Princess Mary’s marriage and other “late news." The population of Tristan da Cunha —l4o Is greater now than it has ever\ been. The people are neither mentally nor morally deficient. Rogers’ parsonage was the first wooden house ever erected on the Island. The Tristan Ites are largely stock breeders and fishermen, but their remoteness from civilization makes the fight for existence a precarious one.

UP TO RAILROADS MIOGLE SAYS Head of Operators Says Coal Production Standard Will Be Reached Soon. Responsibility for the delivery of coal to homes, institutions and utilities rests with the railroads, according to Alfred M.

How Bobbed Hair Girl Solved Curling Problem

“My worries began after having my hair bobbed. I simply could not keep it in curl, especially on damp days. After reading about liquid silruerine in ail the leading magazines. I decided to give it a trial. I applied it according to directions and then put my hair up and ieft it over night. I was so delighted with the lovely curls in the morning and, best of all, they stay nice all day. regardless of the weather. When my hair gets straight again, instead of giving it another application, I simply dampen it with water before putting it on curlers. By so doing, one silmerine application lasts a week or ten days. I for one am thankful for this miraculous liquid silmerine.” This letter from a Pennsylvania enthusiast is one of many which show that liquid silmerine is equally efficacious for bobbed and long hair. This harmless liquid, obtainable at any drug or department store, is just splendid for keeping any hair beautifully wavy, soft and glossy.—Advertisement.
