Requirements: .PDF reader, 82.4 MB
Overview: IN THESE days, when almost every boy has a radio, and even harbor tow-boats are in communication with the shore office by radio telephones, it sounds strange to say that ships still go to sea without radio equipment. Policemen in Ford cars are listening in on headquarters and television at home is creeping up on us, yet ships are allowed to go to sea legally without even a receiver.
It is only a few months since a ship with passengers vanished in the Florida channel and she was as completely cut off from the world as was Columbus when he Sailed into the unknown west. It is only a year and a half since a brand new British freighter sailed from England to the westward with a cargo of coal on her maiden voyage, and vanished with all hands. She carried no radio. Built in England for service on the Great Lakes, the vessel was exempt by British law from fitting wireless for the Atlantic voyage.
