FOREWORD
By Jack Binns
In these days of Radio broadcasting, when the country has gone wild over
wireless music and entertainment, there is a tendency to overlook the
other phases of radio such as its use as a means of saving life at sea,
and for navigational purposes generally. There is no doubt about the
interesting character of broadcasting, and equally, there is no doubt
about the importance of radio as a means of life saving.
With this thought in mind, I think that the present volume, detailing
the adventures of the Radio Boys, serves a very useful purpose in that
it forcibly portrays the use of wireless to bring aid to a disabled ship
on the high seas in a storm.
By doing this it will inculcate a desire among boys to learn the
wireless code and transmit wireless telegraphy messages themselves, and
in doing so will tend to develop that nucleus of communication experts
in the coming generation, which is always an imperative necessity to
every nation.
