HESTER Editor and Publisher Subscription Rate—In Orange County... per month 50c Entered at the Postoffice at Anaheim, Calif., as second class matter DAILY GREETING TO OUR READERS Ev. I the Lord thy God will hold thy right hand, saving cala shee, fear not; I will keep thee.—Isaiah 41:13. Possessions canish, and opinions change, And passions hold a fluctuating seat; But, by the storms of circumstance unshaken, And subject neither to eclipse or wane, Duty exists;—immutably survive. For our support, the measures and the forms Which an abstract intelligence supplies; Whose kingdom is, where time and space are not. — William Wordsworth. HASTENING PROCESSES OF COURTS There is greater expeditiousness in the working of the criminal department of the Superior Court in Los Angeles County. Thanks to the vigorous efforts of the Crime Commission of Los Angeles, and the influence of public sentiment in insisting that the courts move their work along with reasonable dispatch, there has been marked improvement in this regard. A survey just made shows that the average time from the filing of an information in felony cases to the rendering of a verdict after jury trial is 60.5 days, as compared with 110.8 days two years ago. In other proceedings of the criminal courts similar lessening of time is noted. This is better all around. It serves to keep the calendars of the courts from becoming clogged, with irritating delays in disposing of criminal cases. It makes the processes of courts better respected. It promotes the cause of justice by trial quickly. This gives the in- able dispatch, there has been marked improvement in this regard.

It serves to keep the calendars of the courts from becoming clogged, with irritating delays in disposing of criminal cases. It makes the processes of courts better respected. It promotes the cause of justice by bringing accused persons to trial quickly. This gives the innocent their freedom without a long period of waiting. And it brings the guilty to the beginning of their punishment without undue delay. Justice, as administered by the courts, should be swift and sure. It is more nearly the ideal of justice if administered without delay. Hard experience is the best test of character. RATIONING NAVY VITAL PROBLEM One of the big problems being worked out in the momentous maneuvers of the Grand Fleet of the United States in the Pacific is the rationing of the 40,000 men composing the personnel of the fleet. In the great war game now being played, the source of food supplies for the fleet is being concealed from the "enemy," entrenched in Hawaii. After years of experimenting, the United States navy has what is considered a balanced ration that really is balanced. Men in the American navy are better fed, it is said, than the men in any other navy in the world. Efficiency of men in warfare depends much upon their provisioning. It is impossible to expect coolness, accuracy and foral in battle from hungry men. In this connection it is pertinent to recall the observation of Napoleon that an army "moves upon its stomach." The commissary is tremendously important in all military operations. While the hope and prayer persists, throughout America, that the navy and the army of this country never may be called into hostile action, yet in prudently maintaining this country's defensive strength, the provisioning of its fighting men is of foremost importance in keeping the efficiency of navy and army up to the highest point.

SLIGHT HOOK-UP CHANGES SAVE B BATTERIES By Edgar H. Felix THE NEUTRODYNE THE CONVENTIONAL 5-TUBE NEUTRODYNE Two slight changes will make your neutrodyne economical – First, cut connections at $\textcircled{1}$ – Second, join them with bus bar or wire – Third, connect this wire with the 4% volt negative terminal of a C battery – Fourth, connect positive terminal of C battery with negative A terminal. The conventional 5 tube neutrodyne often uses as much as 25 milliamperees of plate current, making B battery renewals rather frequent. It is not advisable for the inexperienced owner of a ready-made receiver to attempt the changes suggested in the diagram given below. Experienced radio constructors, however, having home-built receivers, will find it decidedly advantageous to make these few simple changes. Measurements made at the Eveready Laboratories with a standard neutrodyne rebuilt as indicated showed a reduction of plate current from 25 to 16 milliamperees, resulting in a saving of 36% in B battery upkeep expense. THE ECONOMICAL 5-TUBE NEUTRODYNE By the installation of a 4% volt C battery in the grid return of the audio frequency amplifier tubes, B battery drain is cut more than 1%.

Stuart Hutchinson today filed a complaint asking that a receiver be named for the concern. He asserts in his complaint that he owns 300 shares of stock in the company. Charles Boege, Vie Loly and Hugh Grant, directors, are made defendants with the company in the action to be brought. The purchaser of the company was the Lewis Oil Co., Hutchinson says, and it agreed to pay 292,000 of which $145,000 was to P.O.

The Lewis Oil Co. now is bankrupt declares Hutchinson. The Bolsa Chica corporation is worth $500,000 and deriving an income of $8,000 per day from wells at Huntington Beach, says Hutchinson. INTERNATIONAL Broadcasting Brings London Music to Million Here HELLO AMERICA! This is the Hotel Savoy broadcasting from 5 Savoy Court, London, England, Station SXX." A moment later came the music, aud and clear, and apparently one the worse for its long and tired journey from the London hallroom, some three thousand miles away, to listeners in American cities, towns and villages as far west as Milwaukee. This epoch-making event took place last Saturday evening, and hundreds of thousands of radio listeners participated in the first successful experiment of its kind in international broadcasting.

This epoch-making event took place last Saturday evening, and hundreds of thousands of radio listeners participated in the first successful experiment of its kind in international broadcasting. Land Wires, High Power Radio and Short-Wave Radio It is one thing to pick up a British broadcasting station with a radio receiving set as the result of maintaining manipulation, barely identifying the station by means of the call letters which are heard in whole or in part—with the imagination playing a very important role—and receiving the dance music of the Hotel Savoy via local stations sound and clear, and with no more effort than is usual in tuning in these well-known stations. Just how the London music was brought to the American receiving sets is a noteworthy example of radio engineering and co-ordination of radio facilities. Indeed, never before has a message or music been broadcast from one station to be picked up by another station, and rebroadcast from there to be picked up by a third station for rebroadcasting to the radio audience. Last Saturday's concert from England had its origin in the Hotel Savoy, London. The signals were sent over land wires to the high-power station at Chelmsford, England, with call letters 5XX. There the signals were transferred to a 20,000-watt radio telephone transmitter for transmission on a 1600-meter wave. On this side of the great "pond," these signals were intercepted on a super-heterodynе receiver operating in conjunction with a ten-mile wave antenna, located at Belfast, Maine, thus spanning the Atlantic Ocean or a distance somewhat less than 3,000 miles. The Belfast Station is normally engaged in receiving long-wave radio signals from the high-power radio telegraph stations in various parts of Europe; but part of the equipment at Belfast had been temporarily converted for the purpose of receiving the 1600-meter radio broadcast signals. The greatly attenuated radio telephone signals reaching Belfast from Chelmsford had to be amplified almost countless times, before being fed into a short-wave transmitter for rebroadcasting. The next link in the chain was provided by short waves which spanned the gap between Belfast, Maine, and the laboratory of the Radio Corporation of America, located at Van Cortlandt Park South and Saxon Avenue, New York City. Here Belfast's wave was picked up on a modified Regenoflex circuit receiver designed especially for short-wave work, and again reinforced by means of special audio-frequency amplifiers. Thus far our London signals were brought down as far as the outskirts of New York City. The next step was to relay the reinforced signals over land wires to the control room of Station WJZ in the Aeolian Hall Building, in the heart of New York City. Again the attenuated signals were rejuvenated by the audio-frequency process before they could be fed into the usual transmitting apparatus for retransmission on the usual wave length of 455 meters. With the click of a switchboard key, WRC in Washington was cut in on the circuit and London's audience was proportionately enlarged. So, by means of land wires, high-power trans-Attlantic radio telephony, super-sensitive trans-Attlantic reception, short-wave transmission and reception, land wires, and re-transmission by WJZ and WRC, the musical strains of the Hotel Savoy orchestra in London set American feet in action at the same time that our English cousins were dancing to the strains of the same orchestra. WGY at Schenectady also intercepted and rebroadcast London's signals, receiving Belfast direct at the General Electric Company's laboratories. United States and England One-Fifth Second Apart Despite the distracters spawned by the various links in the chain stretching from the Hotel Savoy in London to the receiving set in the city apartment or the remote farm house in the United States, it is estimated by radio engineers that less than one-fifth of a second was consumed in the transmission. It can be said, therefore, that Europe and America are only one-fifth of a second apart during those experiments. In truth, the radio listeners in the United States heard the music from the London orchestra even before those same strains reached the audience in the Hotel Savoy, due to the reactive stigmatics of sound waves as compared with the lightning swiftness of radio waves. The experiment in question is part of the extensive research work being conducted by the engineers of the Radio Corporation of America, and has for its ultimate goal the development of international broadcasting. It is through the agency of such experiments that important data is gathered on atmospheric conditions, modulation of short-wave and long-wave radio telephone transmitters and reception of weak signals and their subsequent amplification. It is such continual experimentation that results in the steady development of transmitting and receiving equipment for the serious work of transoceanic and marine radio services, as well as that supreme entertainer of the masses—radio broadcasting service. Broadcasting the Radio Program During the past year one of the most notable advance broadcasting has been re-broadcasting grasps with the object a vast audience scathed wide territory, with this gram.

MONDAY, APRIL 27, 1925 COMMENTS of the PRESS What Editors Are Saying CHRISTMAS DEPLETES FORESTS—Outdoors Magazine A trail of sawdust marks the passing of Santa Claus on his recent trip across the United States. An estimate made in Washington is that during the Christmas toy making season, 10,000 industrial workers turned 30,000,000 board feet of lumber into playthings for American boys and girls. Hardly does Christmas pass when this force of toy makers in 400 industries begin again to accumulate finished products for the next Christmas time on the calendar, and the value of their output is estimated at $35,000,000. These assistants to Santa Claus ply their trade largely in eastern States—New England, New York, Pennsylvania and Michigan having most of the industries. One manufacturer of wooden toys in New York state uses about 2,000,000 board feet of lumber. While no one desires to hinder these industrial operations, for it would mean interfering with the holiday joy of American youngsters, the question of lumber consumption becomes a conspicuous one, and in the background is the question of future lumber supply or reforestation. The toy makers, along with other consumers of lumber, have steadily been eating up timber resources in the Eastern states, and now have to go into the west and south for supplies. To use up 30,000,000 feet of lumber for toys takes a tremendous annual toll in the form of trees, and if the making of toys, the building of homes and a hundred other uses of lumber is to continue on the usual scale, the talk of reforestation will have to be rapidly translated into egrowing of more trees or depletion will devour the resources. Wooden toys for incoming boys and girls is a strong argument in itself for reforestation. HEALTH AND DIET ADVICE By Dr. Frank McCoy Author of "THE FAST WAY TO HEALTH" GOOD STARCHES (Continued) MACARONI, VERMICELLI, SPAGHETTI, NOODLES. These the called "Paste" foods by the Italians, and are made out of white flour and water. Sometimes eggs are added to the mixture, but the cheapest kinds are composed of nothing but flour and water, and are probably more desirable as a starchy food than when the eggs are added. It is the cheaper kind, minus the eggs, that I usually recommend to patients who want to use this kind of starch. The best way to prepare these foods is to cook them in boiling hot water, without the addition of any y kind of seasoning. When taken from the water, season with butter or cream. Sometimes it is desirable to pour off the water and add the cream and butter to the pan in which they have been cooked. Under no circumstances, however, should cheese, either cooked or raw, be added and tomatoes should never be used in any way with any one of these starches. The malic acid in tomatoes is very strong, and should not be used with starches any more than vinegar should. If you have never prepared these pastes in this manner you do THOUSANDS OF BEES SENT THRU MAILS Eighteen swarms of bees, each of 20,000, passed thru the Anaheim postoffice on the way to D. Langford of Buhl, Idaho, according to Postmaster J. H. Whitaker. The consignment, which is the second this week, is being sent by T. Dunn of Olive. There were 120,000 bees in the first consignment.

The Radio Corporation of America and its associated companies have made use of both wire lines, higher power and short-wave radio for this purpose. The recent tests have demonstrated what can be done not only by means of flour and water. Sometimes eggs are added to the mixture, but the cheapest kinds are composed of nothing but flour and water, and are probably more desirable as a starchy food than when the eggs are added.

If you have never prepared these pastes in this manner you do not know how good they will taste, and you have a treat in store for you the first time you try any one of them, if prepared as described above. (To be continued) "Sally” Scores Hit For Colleen Moore All the charm that marked Ziegfeld’s stage production of "Sally" is caught and enhanced in First National's screen version of the same play, with Colleen Moore in the title role. "Sally" opened yesterday at the California Theater, and will be shown again tonight and Tuesday. It is a colorfully photographed and "staged," and the direction of Alfred E. Green is worthy of the highest praise. Colleen Moore established herself beyond question, with such successes as "Flaming Youth," and "So Big," but in "Sally" she rises to even greater heights. Her role of the forlorn little drudge in the orphanage, who through sheer force of her own character rises to the fame of a great dancer, affords the star wide opportunities for the exercise of her talents. Miss Moore has long shown a decided penchant for hoydenish comedy, and this she indulges in to the fullest. She also takes advantage of those moments of poignant pathos which are provided her and likewise reveals an ability to "get her teeth into" a bit of real drama when the plot tones it her way. First National has not stinted in the least on either cast or production. The sets are truly lavish, notably those showing the Elm Tree Inn and the lawn fete of the multi-millionaire. The photography also stirs one to high praise. In the cast Miss Moore has Lloyd Hughes as her leading man, while the chief comedy role is in the hands of Leon Errol, who created the same part in Ziegfeld's stage version. Errol is at his funniest on the screen. An International News containing some very interesting scenes and a Felix Cat Cartoon are on the bill. Geo. E. Turner, concert organist has arranged a special musical program for the picture. CELEBRATE TRAIL OPENING In celebration of the completion of the Arrowhead Trail from the Arizona line near Bunkerville to Las Vegas and the discovery of the Pueblo Grande Nevada, the Lost City near St. Thomas, Nevada; a pageant will be staged at the latter place on May 23, 1925 which will be one of the most spectacular affairs ever presented in Nevada. The pageant will be staged in the living place of the prehistoric people and a band of Zulus will be shown leading the life of prehistoric days, including ceremonial dances, methods of preparing food and other diversions.

The Radio Corporation of America and its associated companies have made use of both wire lines, higher power and short-wave radio for this purpose. The recent tests have demonstrated what can be done not only by means of short-wave radio relaying, but also comparatively long-wave, high-power relaying for bringing the concerts and speeches originating in Europe to our American radio audience. Not only London and other English cities, but Paris, Berlin and possibly cities in South America and the Orient may be heard in the future, now that the way has been paved for radio relaying on a trans-Atlantic scale. Future Experiments Remarkable as this experiment has been and promising as it is for the future of radio-broadcasting, it is not to be presumed that international broadcasting is now an established institution. First of all, the experiment is intended solely as an experiment. Secondly, a vast amount of engineering work must still be done before a reliable method is developed for satisfactory results under all conditions of the ether. It must be borne in mind that the crisp, cold nights of early March are more conducive to radio success than the warm nights of the spring, summer and fall, where it is a question of long-range transmission and relaying of such sensitive radio telephone waves with their latent sound values. Hence radio engineers still have much to do by way of overcoming the numerous obstacles that face them. Radio relaying, whether conducted by means of land wires or radio, is a question of satisfactory signal strength, minimum distortion of the signal, and the minimizing of atmospheric and other parasitic disturbances. If we consider the short time that radio relaying has come into actual use, and the increasing improvement in the quality of the programs that are thus relayed, we must admit that the radio engineers have already made considerable progress along the road toward international broadcasting.
