THE AUGUSTA HERALD. AUGUSTA. GA. USE OF WIRELESS IN THE GREAT WAR In Wars of Nineteenth Century an Army Spent Much Time in Attempting to Cut an Enemy’s Telegraph or Telephone Wires. To Break Transmission of Dis patches of Today is Practically Impossible. In wars of the nineteenth century rn army spent much time in attempt ing to cut an enemy’s telegraph and telephone wires. To break the trans n ission of dispatches today Is prae th ally Impossible, thanks to Mr. Mar coni and his co-inventors. Do you realize that the two allies against Germany and Austro-Hun- Hungary, France and Russia, are probably in constant touch every hour, Indeed every minute, of the day and bight? They can talk right over Germany, Moscow and Baris can co-operate per fectly. Probably General Joffre and Grand Duke Nieholaievitch know <-aeh of them what the other's forces are doing from hour to hour. Balkan War Incident. An incident of the Balkan war shows the remarkable possibilities of wireless. The allies bottled up Ad rianpple, holding all roads to Constan tinople. But in the city was a 1 1-2 k. Marconi wireless telegraph station of the portable type. At no time did the station fail, and in the course of the siege, more than 450,000 words were transmitted to headquarters without a hitch. The allies attempted to stifle the station by placing wireless outfits to the east and west of Adrinaopie, hut their attempt to ‘‘jam’’ ttje Turkish signals was in vain. Its Usefulness. The usefulness of wireless was also shown In the recall of certain ships at sea at the outbreak of the present war. One ship was brought hack af ter she had proceeded within two days' Journey of Kurope, and thus was saved from the enemy. Many small craft have been seized, because they were at sea at the out break of hostilities and had no wire less. The effect of this experience will undoubtedly be the cause of a wide use of sir communications, as a kind of assurance against capture by a hostile warship. Austria-Hungary has four Import ant govejouent wireless stations, Ger many seventeen, France eighteen, twenty-eight and Great Britain sixty eight. Privacy. ,Mqny means are now used for in .suring the,privacy of a wireless dis patch. The Marconi stations are de signed to obtain this result by chang ing the wave length of the transmitter at 'frequent intervals. This change can be made in a frac tion of a second. The operator can shift his “tune” after every three or tour words if he considers it necessary. Just before the shift he sends a code letter indieating to which wave length he is about to change The operator at the station receiving makes the necessary readjustments to follow him _ DROPSY SPECIALIST \ Usually give quick relief, fjpy have entirely relieved many 'tint seemingly hopeless cases. <3 Swelling and short breath soon gone.
