Naval experts report that gircraft cf certain types are now equipped with radio receiving and transmitting apparatus with which they can re= port the movements of enemy fleets and the effect of our shell fire, thereâ€" by enabling our gunners to correct the ranges of our guns. Aircraft Radio * 4 as Aircraft radio is a comparatively new field cpen to the radio men, and since the adaption of radio by the Navy Air Service, more trained perâ€" sonnel are required, according to an announcement mide by the Navy Reâ€" cruiting Service. Radio men in this branch, it is stated, are given orders involvingâ€" fbying and receive fifty per cent remuneration in addition to their regular monthly pay. This is called "fAight pay." The Navy maintains a special research laboratory at Washâ€" ington, D. C. for the training of airâ€" craft radio operators. o e U. S. Naval Radio shore stations, it is said, perform an additional useâ€" ful and valuable service by handling thousands of messages for other Government departments during the course of a year. These stations are entirely manned and maintained by officers and enlisted men of the U. S. Navy. ; & oi z... +o. Yainable . Asset _ ~ The naval authorities state that, by means of.radio and sound equipâ€" ment installed on naval ships and shore ‘stations, shipsâ€" atâ€"sea, both naval and commercial, have a reliable and valuable asset, enabling them to locate their positions in stormy and foggy weather by‘rmeans of the â€"radio compass and radio beacons; that stricken vessels may send out disâ€" tress calls for help by giving their positions, enabling assistance ‘to be rendered; that the high power radio stationsâ€"on bothâ€"coastsâ€"send. out, at stated /â€"timesâ€"«during â€" each day, weather,â€"hydrographic, press â€"and stock ‘repofrts, storm warnings, etc.; and ‘that certain stations also send out daily market reports. <â€"~ ~ . Since the Navy incorporated radio compasses and radio beacons along the coasts of the United States, and accordingly jincreased its personnel in this branch, it is said that advanceâ€" ment is unusually rapid and that radio men are constantly moving to higher ratings, thus creating a shortage in the lower grades. l Over fiveâ€"hundred vacancies in the Radio branch of theâ€" Navy await. fillâ€" ing by competent men, according to a Navy Department letter just reâ€" ceived by the commandant of the Great Lakes Naval Training station.

If they can put that over we will have a little more confidence in their ability to untangle the mazes of European politics. 17 § Sf
