JERSEY VOICE IS
HEARD AT BREST
OVER TELEPHONE
New Brunswick Naval Station
Reaches President Wilson's
Ship by Wireless
Washington, D. C., March 21.
The extent to which the wireless
telephone has been perfected was
disclosed when it became known
| yesterday that the naval operating
station at New Brunswick, N. J.,
has talked directly to the steamer
George Washington in Brest harbor
within the past few days.
There have been rumors during
the past week that Washington and
Paris have been in direct com
munication by long distance tele
phone, but this is denied by offi
cials here.
The George Washington has no
sending apparatus and was there
fore unable to reply by telephone,
but acknowledged the message by
radio, saying that the voice from
the New Jersey shore was heard
perfectly. The test was conducted
after President Wilson had left the
ship. Orders have been given to fit
the George Washington with ithe
necessary device so that telephone
messages can be sent in each direc
tion.
The inventor of the apparatus
used in the test at New Brunswick
is E. E. Alexanderson, of the Gen
eral Electric Company, Schenctady,
N. Y. This invention is said to be
superior to that of Marconi. The
latter system is being used in experi
ments now in progress to link Ire
land and Canada by telephone.
The New Brunswick station was
established by the Marconi Com
pany, but was taken over by the
Government during the war. It has
been fitted with the Alexanderson
invention, with which such won
derful results are now being ob
tained.
May Talk on Homeward Trip
.There have been reports within
the past few days that Secretary
Tumulty had talked with President
Wison in Paris by wireless tele
phone. Mr. Tumulty denied today
that he had had any conversation
with President Wilson in Paris or
elsewhere by this method. It is
possible that when the George
Washington and the Presidential
party starts pn its return trip, com
munication with the White House
will be established by the ship
though it may require a relay at
the New Brunswick station.
It is understood that the Alexan
derson device has not been set up
in Washington, but by establishing
direct telephonic communication
New Jersey station from
the National Capitol, and thence to
the ship, it will be a simple matter
to transmit a telephone message
from Brest Harbor or from any oth
er point along the ship's course, to
the White House.
Experiments In wireless telephone
have been In progress for many
years, but the tests have not been
satisfactory until recently. Some
three or four years ago an apparatus
at Arlington station near AVashington
attempted to talk to Paris and Hono
lulu, but with only partial success.
The most recent test conducted from
New Brunswick, shows that the
Alexanderson apparatus has achieved
such marked results that there can
no longer be any doubt about the
practicability of the wireless tele
phone over stretches of thousands of
miles.

the boys" Is the message the wo

is stationed with his outfit in a vill

and nothing to do but drill has creat

get home, he says. "American
women can do more to cheer the
boys up than anything else," was
the final statement in his letter to
headquarters.
While the Y. M. C. A. woman's
division has drawn heavily on the
new contingents who have come over
since the signing of the armistice, it
has been possible to assign only eight
or ten women to each division. "Y"
