Inc GUGLIELMO MARCONI DIO MOT ( 1NVE/MT WIRELESS TELEGRAPHY Washington, January 18--Congress, like well-advertised show troupers, is living up to advance notices. The customers who like to Watch sensational political by-play are wondering about the balance of the, performance. The legislative branch is taking particular pains to assert its independence and freedom from White House dictation. Cognizant of the rebellious attitude, President Roosevelt and his aides are feeding "issues" to the Capitol Hill discontents seemingly confident that the boys will eventually see the light. Observers claim that the White' House forces are exhibiting better strategy in handling difficult problems in which the concurrence of the Congress is required. Apparently under orders from the Chief Executive legislative captains have compromised ias a meitns of holding the rebellion in J leash.' There have been complaints, ] however, of the methods utilized in- (Is the House of Representatives in connection with the relief appropriations. The yelping started with postponement of important committee assignments until a record vote could be ob- ^tained on the highly controversial W. P. A. fund. The 59 Democrats who bolted and voted down increased funds and extension of the civil service protection to 35,000 W. P. A. employees may find themselves out in the cold when the choice berths are assigned. Some of those tagged for discipline are veterans and are not a whit concerned over the retaliatory tactics of the party "chieftains. Mr. Roosevelt's Cabinet members are uneasy particularly in the War and Navy Department as the Admirals and the Generals fail to toe the mark in regard to the defense program. Their jobs afe fairly safe as it wpuld be highly dangerous to demote recognized leaders in these armed services because they could not go along with the spending program qf the President. These Army and Navy brass-hats are happy that the Commander- in-Chief has taken such an active interest in armament, but they, have privately announced their utir willingness to endorse lavish expenditures for equipment which may become obsolete before needed.

But as early as 1838, K. A. Steinheil, of Munich, suggested the possibility of wireless telegraphy. However, sit was not until about 1887 that Hertz, a teacher in Karlsruhe high school, demonstrated the existence of electro-magnetic waves of low frequency--lfiter called "Hertz waves." In 1894 Herti's apparatus for telegraphic work was demonstrated in connection with a lecture delivered by Sir Oliver Lodge before the Royal institute.

He made a score of 146 out of ISO to outshoot 1,971 civilian and military competitors. PARIS FASHION Phoos 43 tions. A typical clue as to their attijj^ de is found in Senator Walsh's explanation of the program and Congressional thinking in which he said, ^Let me say at this point that a recognition by the Congress of the necessity for expansion and acceleration of our national defense program in many directions ought not to mean--and I am confident that it does not mean--j any stampede to approve any interperate and ill-considered and uncharted course of multitudinous activities and expenditures postulated upon the1 need for preparedness." The professional Military *and Naval men are concerned over the linking Of vital de- j fense problems with relief. The curtailment of the W. P. A*' fund by the House carries the battle' to the Senate. The state authorities' have joined municipal officials in j fighting any lessening of the Federal j contribution. They elaim that they cannot handle such a burden. Some J lawmakers are convinced that»»local | relief administrators will use more: judgment if their funds are limited to i actually needy cases. Something of the Congressional reaction may be gleaned from a comment of Representative Ludlow, veteran Democrat from Iiidiana, who told his colleagues that there must be a fundamental solution of the problem. Ludlow protested that no constituent has asked him to find a job in private industry in. a ye'ar and the cry, he says, now is "help me get on W. P. A.". The probe into Harry Hopkins" policies forecasts a drastic change in relief policies. The railroad problem will again be dumped into the Congressional lap. A prelude to the controversy will be given at the transportation conference here next week. Talk about the government taking over the rail lines is largely discounted. Such a step is not considered unless a national emer-, gency required coordination of facili-T = ties. The dopesters say that somethings must be done to unscramble the i ! railroad mess before Congress quits, i j The feeling is growing that some form | Iof Federal subsidy will emerge after!
