Calling for Decoders

Bellmore—About nine at night on July 4th I received the following shortwave message in code, origin unknown. I kept listening, and about an hour later the message was repeated letter for letter.

I can't figure out what it means, but here it is:

DITER FO NUHMA SOESNENN TWON LATWA MOTCIA WRA RUSPIDGNIT DREOR LASOR STEYMS SO STEN YLFNIG SKIDS DAN WLIL EST UP WLORD DREOR NERUD TIR-MANAS TEAL HIST ARYE.

—Radio Ham.

(Neither can we, but we hope it's legal.—Ed.)
