For definition ot broadcast

this: "The radio play is a aeries

The producer's task, Rhode

synchronize the rhythm- of the
three kinds of sound which are
the ingredients of the radio
drama music, speech and acces

sound was transmitted at a time.

SOUTHWEST HARBOR,- Maine,
Jan. 9.-f-(By Associated Press.)
The Inhabitants' of the little vil
lage ot Bernard, three miles frohi
here, experienced their first tidal
wave today. Unexplained in its
origin, .the phenomenon which ec
ru red about noon caused the sud
den emptying of Bans Harbor fol
lowed a few minutes later by a
ten f odt rush of water and then
two smaller waves. No one was
injured but about fifty fishing
boats were hurled ashore and two
men In a dory had a narrow es
cape from falling; cakes of ice
when their craft was suddenly
grounded.
Tho first sign of something
wrong -was a rumbling from the
direction of the harbor.' Towns
people ran to the: piers to see
their harbor -emptied with a rush.
William1 Kelley. who has a fish
packing plant on the eastern shore
of the barbor told -what happened
next. t - .j-
"It was , about tow tide when
the first' wave came," he said.
It floVed In- steadily ' like the
even flow of a river. Then; came
(wo lesser,, ones, and in less than
ten minute's the whole harbor was
filled to near ' highwater mark.
Great, whirlpools wera formed.
Small' boats were tosed About at
their moorings and the seventy
foot -fishing smack Fish Hawk
broke from her lines at the Under
wood jdock and crashed against
the pilings. The entire harbor was
a masi of foam. i
"The .water left the harbor so
rapidly thatra waterfall was cre
ated at the harbor mouth. In less
than fifteen minutes it was all
over.' I
The -chief menace to the. fisher
men was the tumbling of the ice
cakes to the bottom of the har
bor. Chester Sawyer and Forest
Albee were anchored in their dory
near Parkers wharf when the wa
ter was sucked from beneath them
and the dory went aground. They
ran for shore, dodging the crash

WASHINGTON. Jan. 9. (By

United States and Mexico became
increasingly plain today with dis

had filed a formal protest with
the Mexican foreign office against
retroactive provisions of the two
new Mexican laws known as the
petroleum and anti-alien land

"Bunkum" Declares Mayor
This Week Marks the Sixth; Year of National Prohibition;
Its Effects and Problems in Salem Outlined
In Statesman Interview
This week marks the sixth year of National prohibition.
On January 16, 1920; liquor was "officially" banished when
its prohibition was written into the constitution.
What were conditions in Salem before its passage? - Were
they good, were they bad ? How are conditions today ?
Better? Or worse? , i
These are questions which The Statesman sought to have
answered. Mayor J. B. Giesy, head of the city government,
was asked to pictured conditions before prohibition, and
express his opinion on condi
tions today. In his official capa
city, he Is? intimately conversant
with problems of the present. As
a long time resident of Salem, he
recalls ' vividly the days before
prohibition. !
There were either 15 or 17
saloons ii Salem before the ,pro
hibition amendment went into ef
fect," stated Mayor j. B. Giesy
when interviewed.
"So bad was the condition that
ir was a rare sight to see a re
spectable lady walk ' along tho
north side of State street between
High and Commercial streets.
'Conditions "were so undesirable
that any woman realized she
would doubtless be insulted by
some drunken rowdy. !
"In front of each saloon a
rrowd of loafers was a daily sight.
Usually the sidewalks were litter
ed up in a disgraceful: manner.
"It was nothing unusual to
walk down the street in those
days and to see from one to a
dozen drunks staggering around.
There was hardly a day but what
a rumpus or street fight of some
sort did not take place.
"Drunks were so ordinary that
L.o one even paid attention to the
most of them. They were just
taken for granted until they be
came too offensive. Often, when
passing a saloon, you! could hear
loud talk and profanity from in?
side.
"Carousing and drunkeness
were common during the eve
nings. Women scarcely dared to
go down town alone after dark.
Gambling was -wide topen in the
saloons. No pretense was7 made
to stop that gambling.
"One or two sajoqhs tried to
run respectable' places, as tar as
the nature of their business would
permit, but for the most part the
saloohs did not even; pretend to
keep their places from being hell
holes.
"Since prohibition has set in,
there has been such a decided im-
