Grain Men Voice
Opposition to
Futures Measure
Former President of Chicago
Board of Trade Picks Flawi
in Revised Capper
TinchfT Bill
Wellington, June 9. (Special
Tetfgum.) Opposition of the graiu
exchanges of the country to the re
vised Capper-Tinchrr bill for the reg
uUiion of future trading in grain was
voiced btfore the house committee on
agriculture by T. F. Gte. former
treidcnt of the Chicago Board of
Trade.
Mr. Galea insisted that the new
bill, which seeks to control grain ex
changea under the commerce clause
ot the constitution, would enable a
secretary of agriculture to build up
political machine through hit con
trol of the weighing and licenting of
grain.
Eneroachea on Bute.
The Chicago grain man also point
ed out the bill encroached upon eome
of the function! of the atate govern
ment in assuming to control the
weighing of grain. He laid that there
had been a tendency of late for bur
eaus in the federal government to take
from the state some of the powers
which rightfully belonged to the lat
ter. .
So far at the sections relating to
manipulation were concerned, Mr.
Gates said that no new legislation
was needed.
"If there are attempts to corner
the grain markets now, the manipu
lators can be reached through the
anti-trust laws now on the statute
books." He added that attempta to
corner the markets were very in
frequent Under the terms of the Capper
Tincher bill grain exchanges would
have to apply to the secretary of ag
riculture for rights to operate a con
tract market This was opposed by
Mr. Gates-as tending to place too
much, power in the hands of execu
tive officers.
Oppose Report Plan.
. Still another section of the. act,
.which provides that governing boards
of grain exchangee send reports of
all business done by their members
to the secretary, was opposed on the
ground that 10 competitors were
members of the board. It would nbt
be 'fair to permit - competitors to
know v one another's . business, he
pointed out An amendment was,
suggested to that section to the ef
fect that members themselv.es send
in individual reports.
. Tomorrow Frederick B. Wells,
former president of the Minneapolis
Chamber of Commerce, will follow
Mr. Gates in outlining the objections
of the grain exchanges. : . -
Leaders of the "farm bloc" in the
house are anxious to pass the Cap'
per-Tincher bill before the house be
gins its recess vacation. There is
little chance that the bill can be
acted upon in the senate however.

Radio Is Hobbv
to Young and Old
New Art Stimulate! Inventive
Geniui in Young Ameriea
Game I Refreshing.
By JOHN E. KENNEBECK.
(TM to lk fifth toatallaaert el Ts
stary at raeto.)
Radio is more than recreation; ft
is malady to which millions are
susceptible throughout the world. '
"Radioitis" has more than 1,000,000
victims in this country.
Young and old are in the game.
In the early days of radio, no gov
ernmental restrictions were placed
upon work of any kind. No limit
was put on the wave-lengths of
transmitters and the power of out
fits. Many amateurs took keen de
light in filling the ether with all
kinds of jargon by the dot and dash
code? The ether was one grand bed
lam as practically every receiving
set had a spark set also.
This soon became a nuisance. The
government in 1912 made an effort to
squelch amateurs who fiilled the air
with interferences, and a law was
passed which' is still in force. It
laid down reasonable conditions re
garding the rights of the amateur.
It provided that a power of -more
than one kilowatt should not be used
in amateur sending stations.' The
taw further required that it should
be necessary to have an operator's
license if a station should be cap
able of transmitting over the bound
ary tinea of the state in which it is
located.
Under the radio communication
taws of the United States,, the
country is divided into nine districts.
Headquarters are as follows r :
. First district . Boston
Second district New York'
Third district Baltimore -
Fourth district Norfolk
Fifth district New Orleans
Sixth district ....San Francisco
Seventh district . .Seattle
Eighth district
Ninth district
.Detroit
.'...Chicago
No restrictions are placed upon
receiving stations as they are un
able to interfere with one another.
Radio is a creative hobby.
It appeals strongly to that inven
tive instinct which every normal in
dividual has. It offers an unlimited
opportunity to exercise the creative
faculty. Every amateur has. his own
way to "hook-up" a receiving set
and any hobby that allows this wide
range of .experimentation is alluring.
The relaxation that radio offers is
refreshing. It will add years to the
life of any man. - - -,
Wireless 'amateurs are a clannish
lot. They love to get together and
talk shop. , As a result, local radio
clubs are coming into vogue. A club
room is found, and here the meetings
are held at various times. Lectures
are arranged, code practicing - sta
tionc are formed and sooner or later
the club has its own station. .
As a hobby, radio even has pos
sibilities of being a means of play
ing, chess or checkers by long dis
tance a novel pasttime. .;. -
Whether this sport is a fad or not,
it presages to, become- one of the
biggest' commercial business in the
future.. . y ' "
The sixth installment of The 8h'i
story of radio tomorrow will treat of
wireless' as a sport for the traveler.
icceiving set "gives forth a first
class imitation of boiler shop in
full operation instead of an anticipat
ed lecture on the culture of silk
worms." For the "bad radio
weather" season has opened.
According to the bureau, summer
disturbances, called "strays," "stat
ic, - atmospherics 5 and other
names', are in evidence until about
October I. The extent to which they
are serious varies from weak inter
ferrnre for brief intervals to a con
tinuous succession of boiler shop
noises which may last throughout
the night. '
