plete band of wave-lengths of ner- vice to the ship. By reason of the phenomenu of the reflection of wireless waves from the upper at- mosphere, short-wave transmitters are capable of a world-wide range, and the short-wave installation on the Empress of Britain will enable communication to be maintained over long distances with stations out of range of the long-wave transmitter. This will facilitate the exchange of telegrams direct- is with the country of origin or destination, thus affording con- silerable economies,

Emergency and life-boat equip- ment is supplied, embodying up- to-date ideas for efficient working. jand complying with all national re- ¡gulations.

A Marconi direction finder will facilitate the work of the naviga- tors, and the Iatost type with the fixed-frame aerial system has been installed. Bearings with this in- strument can be either true or re- lative to the ship's head, and n yro-repeater, fitted with the direc tion finder, adds to the simplicity of taking true bearings by giving in direct reading from the com-

pans dial. Short-Wave Telephone Equipment. The outstanding section of the wireless equipment is, of course, the short-wave telephone Installa- tion. The telephone has become an integral part of everyday life, for business, social and domestic affairs, and its extension by wire- less to shipping is as inevitable as the linking of countries and con- tinents. Marchese Marconi de- monstrated some years ago that (technical difficulties had been over- come, and that a reliable and flexible wireless telephone service for ships was available; and since 5th Nov. that time, the service has steadily increased in popularity in the ships equipped with the necessary
