Washington, June 30. (Special
Telegram.) benator worris securea
passage yesterday of his resolution
authorizing the' Interior department
to make special investigational the
irrigation project proposed by State
Engineer Johnson ana Mayor mc
Conaugh'ty of Holdrege, which
would put the waters of the Platte to
work irrigating the subsoil in Kear
ney, Adams and Thelps counties. '
The Andrews resolution in the
house to the same effect is still pend
ing, but Mr. Andrews will endeavor
to put it through before the house
adjourns. .... .
Renresentative Kuikaid yesterday
received a letter from Secretary of
the Interior Fall approving tnc
oroiect.
The project would appropriate
$5,000 from the general treasury for
irrigation investigation in me couu
ties named. The rainfall in this sec
(ion is inadequate, and it is proposed
to supplement the rainfall by taking
the flood and unused waters from the
Platte river at times in the year
when the water is available and stor
ing the same in the subsoil. It is
contended that through storage of
from 8 to 12 inches of water in the
fall or spring, maximum crops can be
produced with the average rainfall in
that section.
Women's Clubs to Work
With Movie Industry
Chautauqua, N. Y., June 30. The
most controversial topic at the bien
nial convention of the General Fed
eration of Women's Clubs was dis
posed of at the closing session today
when a resolution on motion pictures
was passed, offering co-operation to
the members of the industry.
The resolution approves "the effort
now being made bv the motion pic
ture industry to raise the moral and
artistic standard and develop the
educational value of motion pictures''
and "the effort of the industry to
stabilize its economic conditions to
the end that there may be the fullest
freedom for development of creative
ability."
The convention endorsed a uni
form marriage and divorce move
ment, recommending a law which
"will prevent hasty and ill-considered
marriages, preclude interstate
confusion and provide a proper jus
tice for all members of the family
when divorce becomes necessary."
A national immigration commis
sion to restrict the admission of
aliens to this country was endorsed,
as was art instruction in the public
schools and truth-in-fabric legislation.
Cuckoo Is Shiftless Sort
rf Father, Says Newspaper
Philadelphia, June 30. A local
paper, running a "nature and sci
ence" scries, queries its readers:
"Have you seen this bird the yellow-billed
cuckoo?"
To which a number have replied:
"Yes, many a time. Habitat, res
" taurants. buying meals tor 'gold
diggers.' "
The paper nonchalantly supple
ments this information with the fol
lowing: "Mr. Cuckoo is a rather
shiftless sort of father and husband."
Receivership of "Katy"

Kansas & Texas Railway company

ginning sharply at 8.15.
"Air Bug" Works
Without Aerial
Receiver Given Away by The
Bee Picks Up Messages
With Use of Coil.
The quick adaptability and thor
ough capability of the junior "air
bug" receiver that is being given
away by The Bee was demonstrated
recently when E. T. Munroe, jr.,
caught the Omaha Grain Exchange
station, WAAW, without the use of
an aerial an uncommon occurrence
in radio.
Ray Rainbolt of the Omaha Radio
company was demonstrating a large
receiving set not far distant from
station WAAW when Munroe
hooked his miniature set that con
sisted of a one-inch coil, crystal and
receiver to the aerial. The reception
from the grain exchange was as audi
ble through the "air bug" set as
through the larger receiver.
The lead from the aerial to the "air
bug" became disconnected and, to the
surprise of the onlookers, the grain
reports kept coming in, the coil act
ing as an aerial.
WAAW
Friday
Broadcasting of daily news bullet
ins from the Omaha Grain Exchange
station, WAAW, will be discontinued
after today. The grain exchange, co
operating with The Bee will continue
to broadcast market reports, baseball
scores and concerts. Market reports
will be broadcast daily at 8:45 a. m.,
9:45, 10:45, 12:30 and 8:00 p. m.
Baseball scores will be given out by
The Bee and the grain exchange at
5:15 p. m. Concerts will follow final
announcement of the market reports
at 8:00 p. m.
The Bee will broadcast concerts
from station WAAW on Monday,
Wednesday, Friday and Saturday
nights of next week.
Four Concerts Scheduled
to Be Given Next Week
There'll be concerts broadcast by
The Bee from the Omaha Grain Ex
change station WAAW Monday,
Wednesday, Friday and Satur
day nights. Some clever local talent
has been booked for the programs
that will begin sharply at 8:15 p. m.
8:15 p. m.
Questions
E. L. K., Lincoln, Neb.
Q. What would a complete receiving
set to hear music cost?
il. A complete home made, short wave
regenerative set. Including aerial, could
be installed for $35.
F. J. N., Hastings, Neb.
Q. Will the use of a 43-plate condenser
across the secondary of a honeycomb coil
set make any difference? What are the
rignt sizes lor nonyecomb colls for such
a set?
A. (1) The condenser you mention will
work all right, but a 2.1-plate condenser
would be better. Probably the reason the
spider web coils did not work well in the
circuit is because you did not have the
coils of the proper size. Don't be afraid to
do some experimenting along this line, and
you may surprise yourself. (2) The size
of the honeycomb coils should be, pri
mary L-50, secondary L-50, and tickler
L-25.

Calif ornian Stages
Fiji Island Dance in
Park; Held Not Insane
Long Beach, Cal., June 30. Clif
ford Wooten, clad in a suit of small
muslin tobacco sacks, sewn to
gether with yellow cord that puck
ered the sacks, was slomnly pranc
ing and dancing in the park here
yesterday when a policeman step
ped into the picture and spoke thus
wise: "What's the idea?"
"I'm a member of the royal fam
ily of the Fiji islands, and I'm do
ing our tribal dance," was the re
sponse. At police headquarters a doctor'
said Wooten was sane, the sergeant
htld t hadn't been disorderly, the
