Sees Day Of Television I To Be Nearing

NEW YORK. May ‘l-Ficld tests of "real" television, looking to the day when sight by radio may b»; as common as sound. are to be started in the United State; as soon as the apparatus can be put into operation.

Construction work is to begin immediately, David Sarnoff. Presl- dent oi the Radio Corporation of America. told the annual stock- holders meeting today with the ex- pectation that all theiequipment will be ready in l2 to 1s months. Sarnoff stressed that the tests did did not mean “a regular service oi television is here or around the corner." He added that while "sound broadcasting remains the fur ’ ‘al system of radio com- munication to the home." televis- ion is “promised as a step by 512D development that would supple- ment, not supplant existing radio service.

Th9 tests, givln} engineers Ell opportunity, to investigate televis- ion transmission on an evcrday working basis. will be conducted first in a "suitable centre of popu-

lation," probably New York, with receivers, installed at various ob- servaton points.

VANCOUVER, May o-"Those f us who live in the hills wouldrrt. come back to the city for any consideration." do ‘ ‘ a bropzed. litheman wearing a. picturesque buckskin suit with fur collar. Thelspeaker was Harry Hooper, known as Vancouver's "Barney Oldfield" in the early days of auto- mobile racing. He is now a placer miiierwberotlns. in the Williams Lake district and he has found that life in the open air is much preferable to that in town. When he is not working with his small hydraulic outfit. Hooper cul- tivates several acres of ground at his diggings in the Carlboo. As a result he raises all the cantaloupe: melons, potatoes, cabbage and oth- er kitchen vegetables he needs. "We're nearly independent of the city now," he says with pride.

'No Fear of Depression Although placer miners are not‘ making fortunes, the depression holds no fears for them, Hooper declares. He has been working his present leasesJor four years. Placer miners have one serious complaint» to make; however. The regulation which prevents the mint receiving less than two ounces of gold, works a distinct hardship on the small miner. Hooper registered a vigorous coin- plaint. about this to Mr. Frank B.‘ Woodside, manager of the B. C. Chambe of Mines, and that 'in- stitution will probably take action on the subject again.

The miner with less than two ounces of gold in his poke finds it necessary at times to sell some of his precious metal for -what he can ‘get. The‘ miners advocate regulations which will require banks in mining areas to accept any quantity of gold, making an advance payment cn_ the ultimate ipérice which the mint will pay for

For instance. on two ounces the bank will pay at present $50, and the balance when the mint has made its return on the fluctuating price" which is- around ‘$35 an

ounce._ The general run of gold found in the Caribou is approxim- ately 750 fine as compared with the pure metal which is 1,000 fine.

Were miners able to sell their .ygold in this way, and not be put to the necessity of trading small amounts for what they can get. when the weight is less than two Wnces- HOODQr asserts the miner's lot would be much happier,

was stressed by the British gov- ernment leader and his colleagues. Si: John, who did most of the talking, impressed upon the visit- ing statesmen the fact that the European peace system had de- teriorated sharply as a. result of German land, air and sea force expansion in defiance of the treaty of Versailles.

Air Pact, Hope

It was understood the Foreign Secretary pointed out that British hopes now centre on a Western air pact, the only proposal emerg- ing from the Franco-British talks of Feb. 0 which Rcichsfuehrer Adolf Hitler approved.

The ministers were told that the "air Locarno." in which Germany and Belgium would be asked to Join-Italy, France and Britain, now is under consideration in London, Paris and Rome. This agreement would not obligaw the Dominions in any way. (They are not signat- ories of the original Local-no pact.)
