DILAPIDATED RUSSIA TURNING TO RACING; SPORT WELL BACKED

fBy Associated Tress) MOSCOW, Sept 15. Horse racing in Russia, nearly as popular in the eld days as tea drinking, is slowly coming back. There are so many race followers In Russia that even during the world war it went on about as usual. Not until the revolution came, when the country was almost turned inside out, was racing forced to close down. Four yean zgo, when racing was actually given up, millions of persons thought it meant the end of everything. But this summer harness racing began again in Petrograd, Moscow and various other cities. Now Russia, or at least the racing fans, are beginning to feel that after all the world has started to right itself again. The government conducts the sport;

the pari-mutuel system of betting; the

concessions at the tracks, and every

thing in general, and the army helps to keep things going in orderly fashion. Soldiers see to it that no one gets in free, and that there are no small boys, nor men, peeping through the fences. A soldier band furnishes music between races, when the crowd scrambles to place its rubles on its favorite horse. The racing in Moscow goes on three days a week. The track is Just at the edge of town, near many fine old residences, now community houses with a tin . stove pipe protruding from every other window. Relieve Sufferers. All the profits, as the government announced at the beginning, go toward a fund for the relief of sufferers in the famine districts. The races are

under the direct change of the Soviet horse department of which General Brussiloft Is the chief. General Bruss-

iloff is as well known in Russia for

his interest in clean sports as he was

as a fighting man.

Individual horse owners participate in the various events, but the majority

of the trotters are owned by the gov

ernment. Many of the horses were

sired by American stallions.

If Russia has her troubles, they are

not in evidence at the pavillion. There

are more smiling faces and laughter

at the races than any other place in

Moscow.

The track itself is as good as ever, but the block-long grand stand is all run down at the heel, like so much

of Russia.

FRANCE RESPONSIBLE 1

FOR BIGGEST RADIO STATION IN WORLD

(By Associated Press) PARIS, Sept. 15. Another step in the plan to "moor the new world alongside the old" has been taken here by the opening of the great French wireless station at Saint-Assise. This is described as the biggest wirelss station in the world, and it has a capacity. Its builders say, of 1,000,000 words

a day. Messages have already been sent at the rate of 80 words a minute

with perfect clearness, and when the

equipment is completed it will be pos

sioie to sena five or six messages

simultaneously, with a total output ot

600 words a minute.

Saint-Assise, . which In future will

carry the bulk of wirelss communica

tion between France and America, is

worked from the center of Paris bv

means of a long-distance control system. The central office near the Paris

Stock Exchange, by means of six re

ceiving centers in the suburbs, picks

up messages destined for transmis

sion from Saint-Assise and automati

cally passes them on across the

Atlantic.

This station is 35 times as powerful

as the Eiffel Tower station. In addi

tion to messages sent to New York, direct communication has already been established with Argentina and China, and when the post is completely equipped it will be clearly heard in the remotest recesses of Alaska and

the southern extremities of South America. The French constructors of the plant say the system used is several years in advance of that of the United States or of Germany.- The wires are supported on seven pylons each 820 feet high.

fogy type of prison authorities against undermining discipline by introducing

"flashy American methods."
