DAY OF BIG STATIONS PASSING. B y Cabli; —Press Association—Copyright. •BUENOS AYRES, June 17. Trans-radio international officials announce that radio-beam-ray communication between Poidru station (Cornwall, England), and Buenos Ayres, was radio-telegraphic, not telephonic, as reported from London. A message was received after a successful test which Marconi conducted for two day's with a local'station on a wave length of 94 metres. The officials assert that success over such a long distance means that high power stations, are no longer necessaiy for radio communication. They expect that soon all the stations of the four big Allied international companies will bo equipped with radio reflectors, essential to the • beam-ray system, so each may communicate with any of the others directly and exclusively. The receiving apparatus here is of special construction, having three lamps and small cylindrical antennae. Tho distance from Poldlm to Buenos Ayres is 6333 miles.
