By Controlling the Air
You Control Opinion»
One of the big problems of the
immediate future, whether We re-
‘allxc it or not. concerns itself with
the freedom of the air.
While many still regarded the ra-
dio as a toy, wireless communication
has sprung into a position of first
importance. Today millions are in—
vested in the manufacture of radio
apparatus and countless homes are
equipped with sets which tap the
waves for the entertainment and
messages they carry. 7
The plain people of the world
waged many a hard-fought and bit-
ter battle before they won the fund-
amental right of freedom of speech
and freedom of press. Even is some
countries today these guarantees ex-
ist on paper only.
Will the same ugly light have to
be fought for freedom of the air?
In the approaching political cam-
paign the managers of the rival
candidates will manoeuvre and try
to outwit one another to corner the
high powered ’radio sbnding stations.
Radio broadcasting today is in the
same state as the moving pic-
ture business at an earlier stage. It
is only partially understood; it is
unorganized. Too much is sent out
over the air as fact which is merely
opinion, too much is being trans-
mitted as information which is ad-
vertising.
A few are in a position to decide
what untold thousands shall hear
and more important what they shall
not hear. Money can buy priceless
minutes at incl-microphone.
The radio and the movies are un-
doubtedly the greatest mediums for
the advancement of knowledge and
the transmission of information per-
fected in this wizard century. Con-
structive thought. given to the radio
problem of freedom of the air to-
day, will prevent many difficulties
in the future. ,
The question cannot be solved im-
mediately. 1t wlll require many
minds and attempts before even an
approximation of the answer will be
found. I
Hudson Maxim, the inventor.
writes in part as follows on the sub-
ject in a current weekly publica-
tion: .
"Give me control of the air that a
man breathes, and he shall drop his
opinion and adopt my opinion and
he shall vote as I vote.
“Not only is the air our breath
of life. but also it- is the why we
have ears and organs of speech. Give
me control of what goes into a man's
cars and I shall control his organs
of speech.
“Public opinion goes in through
the ears. Give me control of. the
sources of information to which
. public opinion lends its ears, and I
shall be 'able to exclude all oppos-
is; opinions and shape public opin-
ion to suit myself.
Archimedes said: ‘Give me the
where to stand and the fulcrum and
I will with my lover lift the world.’
Radio supplies the where to stand
and the fulcrum for the Archimed-
ccan lever with which he who con-
trols the radio may raise or lower
the World. ,
“Give the control of radio to the
scientists and rationalism, and they
will be in a position to fill the chil-
drens minds with science and ration-
ality. and make them into men and
women who shall be governed by
reason. and not by superstition, fan-
aticism and prejudice.
"Radio broadcasting is both the
most marvelous mystery and the
greatest potentiality, that has ever
.been harnessed to man’s use. and it
has such vast possibllltles of mis-
use as a club that its possible club-
._blng use should be most wisely con-
sidered before a private monopoly
should be permitted to control it.
“I distrust the wisdom of allowing
radio broadcasting to be controlled
by any private monopoly, but I also
distrust‘ the wisdom and the ability
and the justice of federal control of
radio. The solution seems to lie be-
tween the devil or private monopoly
and the deep sea of perilious pater.
nalism. The government has the
right of eminent domain over the
"I must confess that I am pugzled.
Perhaps the control of radio should
‘ be made quasi—private and quasi-
l governmental.’ , ,7.
Even as the author of the above
~ is puzzled, so is everyone who has
given the question consideration
"paneled. But that does not mean
that the problem defies solution.

20 YEARS AGO
rflmu'hmm
The following are taken from the
Sentinel of August 9, 1904:
“The worst has happened and life
is no longer worth living to many in
South Norwalk. The place is deso-
late and the inhabitants in tears for
there is a ,Lolly Pop famine. ' 'Tls
true and pity ’tis. 'tis true,’ a. dealer
confessed this morning. He stated
that he had had an order in for
three weeks for Lolly Pops but
could not get any. .The demand was
so great that the Lolly Pop foun-
dries even though working over time
could not supply them fast enough.
Lately Lolly Pops have been king
in the candy store. They are of var-
ious colors and flavors and consist
of a chunk of transparent candy re-
sembling a much used cake of soap
on the end of a stick. They are est-
en by licking them. giving the tongue
a rotary motion , while duly so.
Many children find that it very
pleasant to rub them on their faces.
It is sincerely hoped that the strin-
gency of the Lolly I'op market will
soon be relieved."
"A jolly party of five young ladies
left Norwalk this morning for Savln
Rock where they are spending the
day. In the party were Miss Minnie
\Villlams and Jennie Stevens of
Illdgcfield. Lillie Bennett. Lucy M.
Brotherton and Theresa Vcrlin of
Norwalk.”
“The two-needle seamcrs of Mrs.
Carroll’s room in the R. and G. en-
joyed an outing at Shippan Point
Saturday afternoon and evening.
Bathifig was indulged in by the la—
dies and later they partook of a
bountiful collation at the Auburn.
Those enjoying the sports were Miss
Anna Potts and Florence Haines of
Stamford, Helen Finch, Ella Clark,
Louise Doyle, Addie Stevens. Nellie
Lucy, Tillie Newman, Clara Palmer.
Mrs. Howard and daughter, Grace‘of
the Norwalks."
“Mrs. Stephen S. Clary and son
William of West street have return-
ed from a two weeks' visit in New
York.”
"Edgar Raymond and Edgar
Lynch of Rowayton took a, select
party to Eaton's Neck. Long Island
Saturday in the sloop 'Wild Duck.’
The trip was made in fine time and
the craft beat several boats in the
Sound in short brushes. The party
included Misses Agnes M. Jarboe.
Pennle Plnchner and others of Bell
Island." _
"A lady whose identity could not
be learned fell over a bird dog in
“fall street this morning. but for—
tunately was only dazed by the ex-
perience."
Fashion note of the day. “The
aim in gown making is to display
originality both in the lines and
trimmings but the result must be
beauty not oddness."

A young lady slat next to a dis-
tinguished bishop at a church din-
ner. She was rather awed by the
bishop's presence. For some time she
hesitated to speak to him. Finally.
seeing some bananas passed, she
seized the opportunity to start con-
versation with him. and said:
“I beg your pardon, but are you
fond'of bananas?"
The bishop was slightly deaf, and
leaning toward her .replied:
"Pardon me, but what did you
say?"
“I said." repeated the young lady,
blushing furiously, "do you like ba-
nanas?"
The bishop pondered the question
gravely for a moment, and then
answered: "It is a curious question.
but if you wish my honest opinion I
have always preferred the old-fash-
ioned night shirt."

LEAP YEAR SELLING TALK
In Virglnlbus Puerisque. Robert
Louis Stevenson observes that “We
are much more afraid of life than
our ancestors, and we cannot find it
in our hearts either to marry or not
to marry."
Then he sermonises:
”Marriage is terrifying, but so
cold and forlorn old age.’
"The friendships of men are vast-
ly agreeable. but they are insecure.
You know. all the time that one
friend will marry and put you to the
door; a second accept a situation in
China. and become no more toryou
than a name. a reminiscence. and
an occasional crossed letter, very
laborious to read: a third will take
up with some religious crochet and
threat you with sour looks thenccfor

“So. in one way or another. life
forces men apart and breaks up the
goodly fellowship forever. The very
flexibility and case which makes
men's friendships so agreeable while
they endure. make them the easier
to destroy and forget.
“And a man who has a few
friends. or one who has a dozen (if
there be-anyone so wealthy on this
earth). cannot forget on how pre-
0
carious a base his happiness reposes;
and how, by a stroke or two of fate
——a death, a few light words. a piece
of stamped paper. a woman's bright
eyes—he may be left
destitute of all.
"Marriage is certainly a perillous
remedy. Instead of one two or three,
you stake your happiness on one life
only. ‘ " "
O 0
"But still. as the bargain is more
explicit and complete on your part.
it is more so on the other; and you
have not to fear so many conting-
encies; it is not every wind that can
blow you from your anchorage; and
so long as Death withholds his ickle
you will always have a frlen at
home.
"People who share a cell in the
Bistile. or thrown together on an
uninhabited isle. if they do not im-
meditely fall to fistcuffs. will find
some possible ground for compro~
misc. They will learn each other's
ways and burners. so as to know
where they must go warlly. and
where they may lean their whole
weight. The discretion of the first
year becomes the settled habit of
the last; and so. with wisdom and
patience, two lives may grow in-
dissolubly into one." '

CHAPTER LI.
Lura had been pondering the
question all day. What could she
do to “help poor Grace? 3
“I don't know what to do," she
told Bob. "I want to do all I can
for her. She certainly can't go to
her mother and father. They‘re
not the kind that would help her.
Aunt Elizabeth might want to help
her. but Grace’s father would pre-
vent it. He’d say, ‘You wouldn't
listen to us. You’ve made your
,bed, now go and lie in it’."
“'Yes. there are parents like that.
but remember," Bob pointed out
any help we give her. no matter
what it is, will be resented by her
folks or yours. Is she your father's
niece or your mother's?"
“My father’s." was the answer.
"If we try to help the girl. her
folks will say we aré condoning her
offence. In cases like this. when
girls —- and boys. too — need their
parents and relatives as never be-
fore. the relatives usually consider
it necessary to puish them by re-
fusing help."

The Dream
”the Dream" cannot be lightly
passed over as "another of Wells'
Utopias". To be sure the narrator
and his listeners are Uloplans of
2000 years hence: but the story it-
self is of” rod . This gives us a
glimpse of our 20th Century civili-
sation in an unusual prospective.
Though at first the picture seems
out of focus, second thought assur-
es the reader that Wells has drawn
his characters truthfully and that
the story itself is reasonably typicaL
In the prologue a little group of
tourists on vacation visit an archae‘l-
oglcal exhibit of relics of the 20th
century then 20 centuries in the

Sax-nae. has a dream which is really
a restoration in his consciousnea of
the memory or personality of a
young man whose life ended in 1924.
The next day he relates the dream
to his companions.
Wells 'does not try to give as dis-
tinct avpicture of the future race as
h edld in "Men Like Gods." The
world there pictured was in a far
more distant future. But even 2000
years has sufficed to do away with
many 0 four_conventions and to per-
mit the people of that day to see
fundamentals more clearly than we
see them.
The ultra conservatives who fear
to question seriously anything of im-
portance or long standing in the
existing order of things will regard
Wells as more than ever a danger-
ous radical; for he does not hesitate
to take a fling at the church. at the
educational system. and at the pres-
en marriage custom and relations.
Indeed the book may fairly be
called a discussion of sex relations.
Sarnsc and his friends are shocked
at the barbarity and the incon-
grulty of those conventions that all
too often hold together people who
do not love each other or sc,a.rate
those who do. For Wells, love is not
more passing fancy. His Utopians are
neither promiscuous nor fickle. yet
our conventional though illicit sex
relations and our divorces shock
them scarcely less than our ideas of
marriage.
Most novels discuss sex without
any reference to eugenics or to any
criticism of current customs and
ideals. W’ells uses all his undisputed
talent as story teller to promote
constructive thought and criticism
along those lines. You do not need
to agree with all he says—or any of
it for that matter—in order to de-
rive helpful stimulus in forming
your opinions. And with an increas-
ing divorce rate that has already
reached about one for every seven
marriages throughout the country
and far more in some states. ,does it
not behoove us to face the problem
squarely with a view to wiser legis-
lation. if for no other reason?
_ "The Dream" is worth reading
as s. story. It is fascinating in spite
of the tragedy that underlies much
of it. and when you have read it
instead. of killing so much time. you
will have made some advance in
your thoughts about more than one
social problem of the day.

SIR ROBERT BADEN-POWELL.
The gathering of Boy Scouts from
all over the world in an interna-
tional Jamboree serves to draw at-
tention to Lieut. Gen. Sir Robert
or the chief scout. as he is
1 throughout the world.
He was born in London. February
22. 1857. His father was an Oxford
professor.
While awaiting his Entrance
an army examination and, much to
his own surprise. he passed so high
in both infantry and cavalry papers
that he was attached to a cavalry
regiment without the usual two
years at Sandburst and found. him—
in the 13th hussars bound for In-
dia. "
From the point of view of the Boy
Scout movemec‘ the important thing
is that it was while serving with
this regiment he ‘reallzed the or-
dlnary peace training of men for
service in th_e field lacked training in
individuality and character. He
therefore carried out classes of in-
struction for his own men on lines
that were at that time quite un-
known in the army, giving them
servation. and campaigning.
In the South African War, when.
as defender of ‘ Mafeking, Robert
Baden-Powell's name first bemace
a household word. he made a fur-
ther experiment—this time
boys. Under his steal officer.. Lord
Robert Cecil. the boys of Mefeking
were organized as a corps for gen-
eral utility. with a training much
