THE DAILY TIDINGS ESTARUSBEP IN 187« PERKINS, KW» w o n C. J , R E A D . MANA8INO W ^ O R ■ —*rr ASHLAND DAILY TIDINGS Marconi’s Achievejpent « ASHLAND PRINTING CO, ■ y g y itg y BYJPBNMAW Qaret&kai at Gratar Kaka How time flies. It seems hardly later than the day before yesterday that Gugiiehco Marconi startled the world by sending a message clear across the Atlantic ocean without the intervention of subnwiRR caWes. And yet here it is t^e 25th anniversary of t^at eP<M+ event. Girl babies when Marconi began challenging the ether now have prattling infants of their own and boy babies are now in training to take the business leadership of their communities. . The wireless telegraphy inyepted gqd devel oped by Marconi has long been on a Round com mercial hasis and adopted to extremely practical uses. So much so that we accept it as a matter of course, wheu we note a dispatch in the paper has been transmitted by radio, when we receive a mes sage from a friend at sea or read of a ship in distress sending out an S. 0. S. call for help. But wireless was destined to affect our daily lives muck more intimately than in Us use aa a substitute for the transoceanic cable. When it was finally coordinated with the principles of tele phony and burst upon ns just after the war as what we now know popularly as radio it came in a form which touches every one as intimately as the phonograph or the movies. The period since broadcasting first began has ,been one Rrgely of |rif4 error. We have found radio a tremendously interesting and en tertaining plaything, hut a plaything which has developed into a great deal of a problem. We don’t know yet just what to do with if. There are pos sibilities in it, we can sea plainly enough, but we are still feeling about more or less for the way to develop, them. It offers the musician a concert hall such as he never performed in before, the orator r fojpup foj* the expression of his views, the teacher an academy that is not enclosed in walla. But mostly thus far it has run to frivolous The development of radio’s highest possibili ties to the fullest extent seems now to he impos sible except under the protection of government interferes». We have fouqd tjiat the free air is not so limitless as it once seemed. It will ac comodate only so many wave lengths. Unless con- fttoion is to heopme worse confounded apd radio to destroy itself there seems nothing for it but to limit the numbey of licenses for broadcasting and subject the licenses to rig^d control. But this pjwftU tbe pwWeoj el ee^WRhw ip the d«t comers vested rights ip the air which does not fit m democratic ides, of every man Marconi never guessed what a hard political nnt he was, giving our congress to crack, and if he had guessed it he probably wouldn’t have car«d. Enough for him that he pioneered a new field in scientific discovery. Let others worry over the economic gnd political problems to follow. Mulai Yu&ee, Sultan of Morocco, may wear royal robes of purple and ermiue but he is a mere man after all. He proven it by his reaction to the Charleston. It is recorded that his $r»t VR^ of the dance was at a Paris cafe A w^ k Q? so ago. He watched —intently it seems—Um display of dimpled knees in the acrobatic contortions of the dance. Then he did vrhat every othjir normal mgn has done on first seeing the Charleston. After looking long and earnestly, Mulai Yusef expressed himself as shocked at the immodesty of the w<vner\ doipg the dance. He thought it “ awful.” He -was certain that Mys. Mulai Yusef (or is it the Mesdames Mulai Yusef1) would nevey do such a thing. That just about establishes his sultauic high ness aa kin to all the rest of ns, hut what he did the next day clinches it. He came back to see them do the Charleston again. 'V'l ■'? ' V ...
