RADIO CALL LETTERS AND CODE CHARTS
(from "Modern Electrics" -July, 1913)

        In another part of this issue, we reproduce,
through the courtesy of the Department of Commerce,
the Department's instructions regarding Radio Call
Letters and two charts, forms 772, List of Abbreviations
to be used in Radio Communication; and 773, International
and Morse Code and Conventional Signals. It is hoped
that our readers will find these interesting and useful.

        In connection with the instructions regarding
radio call letters, it will be noticed that in the
first paragraph it is stated that the Lists of Radio
Stations of the World and of the United States will
not be published before July. Until these lists are
published, it is useless for us to attempt to publish
our BLUE BOOK, and we trust our readers who have ordered
copies of the BLUE BOOK will not object to waiting
until we can get the necessary information from which
to make the book up.

WILL PUT WIRELESS STATION IN ARCTIC
(from "Modern Electrics" - July, 1913)

        The plans of the ArcticExpedition, which Donald B.
MacMillan, Peary's former aid, is to lead for the purpose of
discovering and exploring the hypothetical Arctic continent
known as Crocker Land, has just been made public.

        The expedition will leave New York on July 2 or 3 on
the Newfoundland sealer 'Diana', sailing from Brooklyn Navy
Yard.
        The scientists of the expedition will do work in
geography, geology, oceanography, zoology, including orni-
thology, mamalogy, ichthyology, and all kinds of invertebrate
ologies, but the most interesting work to the public, as well
as in some respects the most important, will be EXPERIMENTS
IN WIRELESS TELEGRAPHY, and far-reaching results are expected.

        So important is this latter subject considered that the
General Electric Company has furnished the expedition with all
the needed electrical equipment, including powerful generators
to be run by kerosene; while the Atlantic Communication Company
has supplied a complete outfit of their Telefunken wireless
with a range of 2,000 miles.

        The expedition will make its main headquarters on the
north side of Flagler Bay, where the powerful wireless station
will be erected, and here, under the ideal climatic conditions
of the Arctic, experiments will be conducted in order to solve
the important problem of directing the Hertzian waves.
