FOR AUTOMOBILES
BFRFIETJTV, CbI. flTPl The youth
ful electrical wizard who equipped
Berkeley's "scientific police depart
ment" with radio and who provided
33 launches, ground station and tow
ering plera of the San pranclwo
Oakland Bay bridge with padlo tele
phones believes It wont be long until
automobile radiophones are common
place. He la 33-year-old D. Reginald Ttb
betta, who designed and Installed tor
f the bay bridge engineering companies
four complete high-frequency radio
telephone systems.
Head by Experts
He explained bis projects to the
nation's foremost electrical author
ities recently at the 25th convention
of the American Institute of Electri
cal Engineers In Salt Lake City. Six
years ago. at 16. ha provided Berke
ley's police department with the first
police radio system. He did the Job
In tl me ta ke n from h 1 gh sch ool
studies.
A runner-up In the Edison Intelli
gence competition. Tlboetts tells in
terviewers: "There's really nothing to
It," as he spins the dials of his com
pact radio-telephone.
The telephone employs standard re
ceivers and transmitters connected to
a box resembling an ordinary radio
receiving set. Special tubes and oth
er standard equipment complete the
tintt. Six foot aluminum rods are the
antenna. The radio telephones oper
ate on a 4 to 6 meter wave length,
compared to the 500 to 1500 meter
wave lengths used by broadcasting
stations.
Licensing Trouble
Difficulty arose over licensing 800
, people who would have used the 22
bridge phone seta. The Issue was
compromised after 234 had passed sx
amlnatlona for federal rndlo operators
licenses. Candidate memorized an
swers and answered other technical
questions In some such manner: "I
would pull the switch and call the
office."
Tlbbetta now la the only licensed
operator. Prom his shop, he can tune
, In any of the sets and suggest alter
ation of wave lengths or other ad
justments for clearer transmission.

SEES METEOR GO OVER

switchman, reported today that he

DUBLIN (TJP) Smugglers on the
uneasy border between the Irish Tree
State and Northern Ireland are prom
ised a hot time of It as a result of an
Intensive drive which the Free StAte
government la likely to launch
against them soon.
The drive waa foreshadowed when
the Free State custom authorities
purchased, 16 chawr automobiles to
patrol the whole frontier from Car
Ungford Lough In the east to Lough
Foyle on the northern coast.
In times past the customs "flying
squads" wars equipped with nothing
speedier than bicycles, while many
smugglers owned fast automobiles.
Smugglers, who enter the Free
State from the north by forbidden
routes, now are faced with the pros
pect of being chased by customs
squads In cars quite as fast as their
own.
Smuggling across the northern
frontier la believed to have Increased
considerably In the past year, largely
owing to the hl?her duties imposM
by both the Free State and Great
Britain In the course of the Anglo-
Irish trade war.
Northern Ireland is included In the
United Kingdom customs area, and
has consequently developed into a
Dase lor smuggling operatlona over
the Free State border.
Illicit cattle-running from the Irish
Free State Into Northern Ireland has
also greatly Increased In recent
months owing to the high duties Im
posed by the British government on
came from the Free State. .
BUTTER WEAKENED
BY ACCUMULAT
PORTLAND, Feb. 32. While
there waa no change In the price on
butter on the open market for the
day, accumulating stv.k uac-mei
the weakness generally noted In the
unaerxone.
Butterfat value continued some
what mixed with some country
points suggesting even higher buy
ing price than what centralize were
openiy quoung nere.
Trading in the egg market ap
peared a trifle weak although no
price changes were suggested. Ac
cumulating surplus vas showing in
spots and storage operation were
about to begin In the north.
Market for chickens remained firm
and generally without further price
changes. Demand remained, be&t for
light hens but waa good for all
weights.
Only a nominal movement of dress
ed turkeys vu showing here with
retailers still "stuck" with laat week's
purchase because of the slowneu
of consumer demand.
