Wireless Arrangements Improved. LUXURY FOR TRAMPS.

IIoward Mason, one of the most expert short-wave radio operators in the world, will cross the Endi- cotts with the plane and install im proved apparatus in Barrow, from which station he will relay to Fair- banks the messages received from the plane in flight. Last year's installation was successful in spite of the crippling of the transmit- ting set at Barrow by the loss of the generator, which it was found impossible to carry to Barrow by

lerige.

The new and lighter type of gen- arator to be used this year will be carried in the plane.

Spring mattresses and hot sup~ pers will be provided for the tramps after they have taken a hot bath. In the corridors along which the individual cubicles aro distributed will be electric push- bella to allow the inmates to sum- mon without trouble the services of an attendant.
