WASHINGTON. Jan. 11. 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high towers will be superseded except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.
