Chicago a World Part

Chicago is going to realize its
ambition of becoming a world
port, not in that vague future
when the St. Lawrence deep
waterway project is completed.
but. next month. Starting Aug
13, foreign freight service will
be inaugurated bya line of 16
steel ships, known as Lake and
(lcean Steamship Company. The
first ship will leave Chicago for
England on that date.

line. that service will he

all it't'itilll}: lake ports and Great
Britain and the countries llttl’tit‘l‘~

These vessels are of “31“") tons

Asleep At The Radio

The t'acctimis student who
spends eight or nine hours on a
lesson by the simple expedient of
slipping the it"xlllnilk under his
pillow at night. may be a. myth.
but the students at the naval air
station at, Pensacola who improve
their radio receiving speed in
their sleep are very real.

l‘liiilli‘jfu aviators who l'“t‘t‘l\'0
thv'li' instructions by radio at the
Pensacola station are sometimes
backward in their ability to re-
ceive more than 20 words a min-
ute. The (‘hiet' Radio Mate. in
ehLi-ge of instruction. believes
that sleeping with receivers in
place over their cars will improve
their speed when awake. He holds
that students who sleep on it will
gain speed in a fraction of the
time required by those who give
only their waking attention to
the work. He conceived this
bright idea of subconscious in-
struction by accident. While
practising receiving at one time
he fell asleep. When he awoke he
found he could receive at the rate
of 53.") words a minute, although he
had never been able to get higher
than 20 or 25 words before.

llis idea was greeted with
mirth at first, but after it. was
tried on a number of would-be
young pilots, it. was found to
work.

The idea is now offered to am-
bitious amateurs who have been
handicapped by their inability to
receive code messages as rapidly
as they would like.

NEW YORK. July 12.—Saving the
lives of rum runners on the New Jer-
sey coast is a. thankless task. accord-
ing to Capt. Charles Bell of the har~
bor petrol Cirberus. who rescued two
of them Just inside of Scotland Light-
ship a week ago. The men. with $4.~
000 in their pockets. were exhausted
from swimming and one was terribly
burned. They were watching their
high-powered motor launch the Spray
burn up after the gasoline tanks had
exploded. Gus Hampton of Atlantic
City was horribly burned and very
near to drowning. and Charles Lake
of the same town was holding him up
in the water when the Circbus arrived
on the scene. Five minutes later it
would have been all up for both of
them. Capt. Bell said. Yet these
I newspapers had never written it up or

Plan to Pave Street
With Rubber Dropped

AKRON. 0.. July 12.——Plans
paving a short section of an Akron
street with rubber have been abatt-
doned because of the excessive cost.
according to E. A. Kemmler. head of
the Bureau of Highways. He laid a
conference was soon to be held be-
tween the engineers of the Highway
Department and a. representative of
a rubber company. but expected no
solution of the problem.

"Rubber paving." Kemmeler said.
“is proving popular in London. but
the cost is very high. Contrary to the
general belief a rubber pavement has
no odor when the sun shines on it.
and does not bounce the pedestrian
along the surface. In fact. there is
little rubber in such a pavement. the
product serving mainly as a matrix."
