Little Enthusiasm Over Chancellor Wirth's Talk I ItKRU.V, June 2.--The speech of Chancellor Wlrth in the reich- stag yesterday outlining the poli- cv of the bovernment failed to provoke m.uh enthusiasm by noru li.ilov Tho hulk ot dirorial comment, t iwever. ad mits thst the new government for the present an do no more than assert its intention loyally to car rv out the allied ultimatum and that the government must be giv en the opportunity to demonstrate I its ability to marshal the nation s i resources for fulfillment of its ob ; ligations to the entente. ! While the organs of tho coali- tion parties praise the candor de ! termination and good will reflect ed in the chancellor's speech, the Tageblatt expresses curiosity as to whether the parties will stand by him in the long run. The nation alist newspaper, which violently opposed the acceptance of the ul timatum, say they find the speech a mixture of non-committal phrares which, when summed up, mean "we sign, you pay."

June 2 -Chairman Volstead of the house Judic iary committee in a report today dealing with his bill to supple ment the Volstead act, declared it presented only such essential leg islation as was deemed necessary to bring about a fair and honest enforcement of prohibition. The repot t held that the chief purpose of the bill was to pre vent use ot beer and wine as medi cine, which would be permitted under an opinion by Former At torney General Palmer. "The effect of that opinion," it said "is to t.ihe from the commis sioner of internal revenue control of permits and prescriptions and lodge that control in those who would profit by their aburfe."

Abolt 1909 a radio station was erected in Salem for commercial traffic but soon was dismantled owing to the limited amount of business done. This formed the example which soon resulted in two amateur ra dio stations in Silverton, those of Alfred Adams and Olfan DeGulre. In Salem, at about the same time, Adair Lockwood, Carl Anderson, Northrup Waters and Kenneth Moores were also experimenting along similar lines. Those were the days of huge transformers and small efficien cies; for radio was too new for much to be known of the more technical side of the art by the amateur. The few books avail able to him were written by men who had had too little experience with the practical side of radio to give accurate and detailed in structions for -building and op erating apparatus from the ama teur standpoint. The apparatus and systems of connections wero adapted commercial systems and apparatus which time has proven not suited for amateur use. Many of the now "old timers" in radio in Salem will remember the well known spark of 7CW; Mr. DeGuire, then using the call CV and also Mr. Adams' call, OFM. Most of us were "brought up" on the spark of old CV, tun ing for it to test our new receiv ing apparatus and later "ham ming" with him or asking him to help us adjust our stations "over the air." The remarkable thing about 7CW. as he Is known all over the coast, is that he has constructed almost all of his apparatus and many parts of it, constructed way back in the old days, are still in use and are giving results as good and in some cases better than much of the latest supersensitive and powerful apparatus. We may give Mr. DeGuire much credit for this excellence since he is known to work out all of his circuits and parts by math ematics, a very difficult proced ure, and so he has an exceedingly well balanced outfit. Mr. Adams, also of Silverton, has been a consistent and good station owner and operator. ' He has not, however, been on the air as much as 7CW until several months ago when his spark began blazing his name up and down the coast, carrying the burden of much of the amateur relay traf fic from Portland. Seattle and other northern points and also much traffic from the south. In cidentally his station has proven itself to be the best amateur sta-? tion In the Willamette valley. About a month ago Mr. Adams lo cated in Salem and will be on the air very soon with a better sta tion than before.
