Proper Waves To
Use In Television
Not Yet Decided
By C. E. Butterfleld
(Associated Press Radio Editor)
NEW YORK The division of
opinion over what section of the wave
spectrum la to be the locale for per
manent television continues.
Some think that the allotted spaces
between 100 and 200 meters are Just
the thing, while others speak as
strongly for the . waves under ten
meters.
One argument for the higher of the
short waves Is the demonstrated fact
that these channels are Ideal for dis
tance transmission of 100 miles or
more. The other side admits this con
dition, but comes back with the state
ment that these waves tend to eltj
over local areas, giving poor reception
results. . -
The tiny waves, around seven met
ers, are the ones that can be de
pended upon, they say, to deliver a
good signal to this local area. But
tests have demonstrated that around
60 miles Is the maximum distance
that can be obtained at present.
May Reach Agreement
These varying opinions may yet be
brought together, for there's a belter
among Borne engineers that one wave
spectrum could be used ' for relay
transmission such as would be re
quired for chain television, while the
shorter waves could serve the immed
iate vicinity of the network trans
mitter.
The higher waves have the backing
of the engineers who have devoted
most of their, time to the investiga
tion of mechanical scanning, while
the group working on cathode fays
has been more-active In probing1 the
new territory below ten meters.
The cathode ray workers have been
dealing with high-line television, 130
lines or more. This system requires
fairly wide transmission channels, 600 1
kilocycles at the least Mechanical
scanning has stuck to 60 lines, with
allotted channels 100 kilocycles wide,
about the maximum that can be used
luccessfully above 100 meters.
WUle Channels Permissible
The main reason why- the ultra
waves have been Investigated lies In
the fact that in this territory wide'
channels are -permissible because fro-'!
quency there In relation . to wave
length is so great. .For example from
5 to 7 meters there are 32 500-kilo-
cycle channels,- compared .with a fast;
decreasing number as the wavelength
Increases numerically. . . .
Another point in favor .of the tiny -
waves is ,that, because of the limited j
area' covered, stations on1 the same!
wave can , be duplicated, within a'
hundred miles -or so without causing
interference. Above 100 meters Inter-'
ference might result, if-, transmitters 1
were located a thousand miles or.
moro apart.

"This new meeting will be held."
explained Kremer, "with a view to

Leaders of the 'minority, headed by
Daniel P. Cohalen, of New York, hail
ed the move as a "complete surren

earlier to take to the convention floor

ALBANY, June 28 () Governor
Franklin D. Roosevelt said today he
had had no part whatever In the
adoption by ihe rules committee of
the Democratic national convention
in Chicago lost night of a resolu
tion that would do away with the
two-thirds nomination rule after the
sixth ballot.
The governor said he had not yet
received word from Chicago of the
committee's decision. - .
"I've only read about It In the
newspapers," he said as he arrived at
his office In the capltol shortly af
ter 11 o'clock. "I haven't talked to
Chicago yet I Imagine they're still
sleeping."
"I had absolutely ho hand in the
formulation of that rule," he added.
"I thought Jim Farley gave out a
statement on that in Chicago last
night. The last I heard from Jim
he was going to."
No direct reference was made at
this morning's press conference to the
telegram Roosevelt sent Farley yester
day directing that the fight against
the two-thirds rule be dropped.
In the telegram he sent to Farley
was the sentence:
"I trust, however, that the commit
tee on rules may recommend some
rule to insure against the catastrophe
of a deadlock or prolonged ballot
ing." Governor Roosevelt planned to
spend the day in his office attending
to state matters. Beside his desk
Is a radio set, over which yesterday
he listened to Senator Alben W. Bark
ley's keynote speech as he dictated the
telegram for Fnrley.

ROOSEVELT
WINS FIRST
VOTE TESTS
(Continued Prom Page One)
along toward the election of the
Roosevelt -backed Senator Walsh of
Montana, as permanent convention
chairman.
Louisiana victory Cheered
As cheers, boos, and torrents of
debate roared across the convention
floor, and Roosevelt scouts scurried
everywhere, the Louisiana contest
was pressed to victory with almost
the solid support of the New York's
convention majority, plus a few who
broke over from the opposition ranks
of the favorite sons.
With whatevor effect it may have
eventually on his bid for the presi
dential nomination, tho run of the
tide appeared rather Impressive too.
toward the selection of Senator Walsh
over Jouett Shouse of Kansas, the
choice of the opposition.
Tho roll call on the Louisiana con
test developed several angry agru
ments, particularly In the delegations
from Iowa and the District of Colum
bia. When Pennsylvania finally tip
ped the balancing scales with the
needed votes, Senator Long jumped
to his feet on his chair and waved,
the Lout h1 ana Btate standard high
at tho center of a near-riotous cele
bration. ,
Long Shouts
"This Is a Roosevelt test," said
Long, "this means Walsh's election
and Roosevelt's nomination. Roose
velt will get at least 60 more than we
did."
Immediately behind the Louie lan a
contest come one from Minnesota and
then tho battle over the chairman
ship.
j Iowa cast a split vote and a dele
I gate shouted "what about the unit
rule?"
The delegates then became en
gaged in a squabble over whether
they wero required to vote under the
unit rule and the vote was passed
until they could attempt to reach
an agreement.
Tho Iowa delegates got so warmed
up that guards rushed to their sector,
as delegates began waving arms, shak
ing fists and yelling to each other.
To a question the chairman an
nounced the Xowa vote Had not been
recorded.
"And How" j
"And how," he yelled to the laugh
ter of the crowd.
The Iowa chairman then announced
they stood 13 aye and 12 nay but
that under the unit rule they had
to vote 25 aye.
When the Iowa disturbance started
Long's delegates were within 17 votes
of a majority of the voted.
CHICAQO STADIUM, June 28 W)
Bewildered by a night of somer
saulting developments, and wholly
uncertain what might happen next,
the Democrats reassembled here to
day to loiter through a couple of
credentials contests while their real
Issues waited outside the wlngB.
Louisiana's turbulent factions, and
a Roosevelt -Smith contest from Min
nesota claimed the floor with appeals
to the party's highest court the
convention Itself.
The Important question of the
selection of a permanent chairman
was to come up later. The candi
dates were Senator Thomas J. Walsh
of Montana, backed by - the sup
porters of RposeveLt, alvL Jouett
Bhouse of Kansas, choice of the op
position. It appeared likely the much-herald
ed battel over two-thirds nominating
rule would not be staged after all
Just before the noon convening hour
th'j Roosevelt camp, after modifying
its previous demand for abrogation of
the rule, withdrew It entirely.
There was much talk of a compro
mise candidate as the delegates,
weary from conferences lasting most
of the night, assembled slowly In the
convention hall. Ritchie of Mary
land, was mentioned and the name
of Newton D. Baker was heard In
many delegations.
The convention wtiB even slower
than at yesterday's opening session
In getting itself together. The hour
of noon saw only a fraction of the
delegations In their places, and the
galleries almost empty. Not a single
convention official had appeared on
the platform,
The organ kept its concert of pop
ular melodies going Incessantly, but
that was about all that was stirring
In the big hall.
The Roosevelt men were working
like beavers to rally their forces, and
reports from some of the Southern
caucuses indicated progress.
Senator Pat Harrison of Mississippi,
reported to Rnskob that MlsslBBlppt
would go down the line for Senator
Walsh, the Roosevelt candidate. The
Alabama delegation said they would
do the same.
One of the first celebrities to arrive
was Senator Huey Long, whose Loui
siana delegation had won a rough and
tumble battle In the credentials com
mittee, but still faced a challenge on
the floor.
.A hypothetical question which. took
57- minutes to propound waa asked

"Like

DO you inhale? Why has this question been
treated "like a stepchild" in cigarette ad

Do you inhale? A simple question. But silence
on the subject may be full of meaning.
Lucky Strike has dared to raise this question
. . . because certain impurities concealed in even
the finest, mildest tobacco leaves are removed by
Lucky Strike's famous purifying process. Luckies
created that process. Only Luckies have it!

: ;.. . ,! I
(A Review) . '
Lil Dagover, the lovely lady from
over-seas; who Is said to be so unlike
all the other lovely ladles who com
from Europe made her debut In l
Grande this afternoon at the Liberty
theatre in a motion picture by the
Intriguing name of "The Woman
Prom Monte Carlo." As the contln-.
ental charmer she scores a hit with
her audience, and 1b, by turns wist
ful, gay, tantalizing, tragic and child
like, and gives a reallstlo turn to
somewhat melodramatic picture. ,
Melodrama with a dash of nauglx-;
tlness Is "The Woman of Monte CarV
lo," and we advise the audience to
go, not to be uplifted by the beaut;
of the plot, but to be entertained
by the slightly risque situations and
thrilled by the allure of the leading
lady and the appeal of the long, lithe
Warren William who plays the rob)
of the tempter, . . i
Miss Dagover portrays Lottie Cor- v
lalx, and has two leading men' who
assume equal Importance In then- !
roles of husband, played by Walter ,
Huston, and lover, carried by Wac-
ren William.
Mr. William portrays the dashing
Lieutenant D'Ortelles, who tries to
fulfil the duties which the beautiful
Lottie's battle cruiser commander
husband neglects.
Mi as Dagover mak'fs her Initial
appearance In the United . States In
"The Woman Prom Monte Carlo!
and has been heralded throughout!
the land for her fine acting, her tuw
usual type of beauty and her ability,
to wear beautiful clothes without
looking like a "clothes horse." ' :

Dagover makes her initial American
appearance Is enjoying a two day run.
