The Burdoln Heights wireless telegraph plant Is to be dismantled, the owner having; become disgusted with the work: of amateurs who played sad havoc in the East recently Bince the disaster to the Titanic A great deal of trouble has been experienced on the Atlantic Coast for the past three years owing to the breaking in of amateurs with high-power sending- apparatus, mostly boys ranging from 14 to 20 years of age who have picked up "wireless" at trades schools. It Is estimated that there are at least 400,000 wireless ama teurs in the United States. If Congress had acted on a bill regulating "wave lengths," which was Introduced some time ago, less confusion would have resulted since the disaster to the Ti tanic. The Pacific Coast has been for tunate in this respect. Although there are 100 wireless amateurs between Southern California and Victoria, B. C, the majority realize the importance of refraining from sending during an emergency. The plant here consists of a receiv ing set only, and It was the Intention of the owner to "try out" his long dlstanceAanse at night on .Mount Adams f i UNITED STATES DEPOSITORY THE BANK OF CALIFORNIA NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF SAN FRAPfCISCO POC.VDGU 184M.
