How under ground and throug-h-water wireless was put Into practical use during the war. was disclosed today by Navy Depart ment officials, giving to the public an other of Its secrets, carefully guarded so long as It might be of Talus to the enemy. Government officials regard this development, originated In private research by James H. Rogers, a scientist of Hyattsvllle. JId.. as one of the war's major scientific advances of the kind. In practical use. the new system so far is employed only for receiving. Ra dio messages sent out by powerful sta tions In Europe are now being read at underground receiving etations In the United States, and in some cases better .han when caught by the elaborate and expensive air stations. Itadt laraala Interrupted. In addition. It was revealed at the department, through an adaptation of the Rogers theory, submarines under water are intercepting radio signals snt from shore and with crude ap paratus the scientist has succeeded in transmitting signals two miles from a .submerged wire simulating a submersi ble. Officials says it is possible, though not yet an accomplished fact, that ground or water sending can be developed to a considerable eatent. They do not anticipate, however, that the present method of sending from high towers will be superseded except for limited special purposes. The theory most generally held until llogers demonstrated the correctness of his views, was that Impulses hurled into the air frlm a radio transmitting station -and deflected earthward be came dissipated, as does lightning, when they struck the ground or water. Theory Is Disproved. The Maryland scientist, however, be lieved that the impulses flowed through the earth as through the air and that it was only necessary to trap and in'uura them in the ground. Ha had been at work on thia theory before .'he United States entered the war and had already Interested naval experts. He offered the results of his work to the Navy without restrictions, and when they were accepted after some demon titrations at Hyattsville, officials say, lie was with difficulty persuaded to accept even remuneration for actual time given to co-operation with the Ooternment. One of the first steps taken was the request of the Navy De partment, under war legislation, that Ms application for patents be expedited. This was done. Some of the main advantages of the Rogers system as developed so far. ac cording to the experts, are the almost negligible cost of construction, the In tensifying of signals by po Kiting the sending apparatus toward the receiving station and reduction of static Inter terence. Because of the latter advan tage the Navy's receiving station at New Orleans, where communication with ships In Southern waters swept by frequent electrical storms is main tained, uses the underground apparatus with marked success. Eleetrlral Experts Areaaed. In war a great advantage Is that sub marines receive messages while sub merged. This is being dona by wires trailing in the water. The Rogers development aroused electrical experts of the Government to new efforts to expand and Improve radio transmission facilities. Out of the experimental work dona with this snd other Ideas, steady advance has been made under war pressure, and IUgera' theories are Interwoven .with those of other men in the results that are benng obtained. f -r f-. f, hMW K.s- aJfjLL lEfil f -- Y A W " V- V --," ' " i f II f i - -J -1 -s."
