SAFE PLACE FOR VALUABLES
Harassed Citizens of American Cities
Should Welcome Idea That Comes
From Buenos Aires.

In these days of lawlessness, when
the honest citizen cannot take a walk
around the block with any certainty
that he will not be held up by u
bandit, the novel idea of Antonio Mon
AGO, citizen of Buenos Aires, ought
to be of value.
He suggests suspenders with pOck-
cts attached to them-two pockets,
that is to say, each of them being
fastened with buckle to the loop Of
the "gallus" at the fl ont. The lower
end of each pocket has two button
holes, which button onto the ordinary
buttons of the waistband of the trOuS-
ers, thus making the pocket fatty Sc
cure against the body of the wearer.
To prevent escape of its contents, each
pocket is provided with buttoned;
flap.
Few bandits would think of looking.
for loot beneath a mans waiStcOat,
and so the suspender pocket should
afford excellent hiding places for
money. Against pickpockets they
ought to furnish a perfect protection.

VACUUM TUBE when
USED AS AMPLIFIER
1t. Will Function Thus for Either
Radio Frequency or Audio
Frequency.

Starting today we shall give a de-
tailed description Of the vacuum tube
when used as an amplifier. This series,
as In the past, is continuous and If
clipped out and saved will be con-
venient for reference.
When the three-electrode vacuum
tube was used as a detector. the cir.
cults associated with 1t were such
that where symmetrical alternating
difference was applied to the grid,
a symmetrical change In plate current
resulted. That Is to say, the vacuum
tube acted as a rectifier. In addition
to rectifying, the tube also amplified.
The variation In plate circuit was .'K,"
where tx" Is the amplification con-
slant Of the tube, times what 1t would
have been in a two-electrode tube, for
the same potential impressed on the
grid.
By properly adjusting the electrical
constants OF the circuits associated
with a three-electrode tube, symmetri-

STORK MADE LONG JOURNEY
Bird Flew From Africa to Germany
With a Message From Exile to
the Fatherland.

The population of Liskau, Germany,
noticed one day recently that one of
the many storks which annually re-
turn to the neighborhood from distant
southern zones to rebuild their nests
was carrying something about its neck
which only human hands could have
fastened there.
Repeated efforts to approach the
bird had failed. but one of the vii
layers finally lured the stork into his
barn and then and there learned that
the bird carried little leather case
in which note was inclOsed. The
note revealed that the stork had come
all the way from East Africa, where
German colonist, Will Bucha, has
his little farm near Victoria lake.
Bucha must have anticipated that
the bird spent his annual vacation in
his beloved fatherland, so he wrote:
Gust a greeting to the fatherland,"
and used the stork to convey his
message.

cal variations of grid potential can be
made to produce symmetrical varia-
ton in plate current, which are "K"
times the amplitude Of the plate cir
cult variations Of a similar twO-elec-
trode value with the same applied
grid potential. This means that IL a
three-electrode value be used in the
proper circuits in radio receiver, the
signals can be made to appear as
though the received signal is tx"
times as strong as it actually is. If
two tubes are used with their proper
circuits in conjunction with radio
receiver the received signals will ap-
pear to be "K" times as strong as they
actually are and so the apparent
strength of the incoming signal is
multiplied by "K" for each additional
tube added to the receiver circuit.
A vacuum tube used in conjunction
with a circuit that will cause the plate
current to vary in exact proportion
to the applied grid voltage, but ap-
parently caused by 'K'' times the &C
tual grid voltage variation, is called
IN amplif1er. If the tube functioning

incoming signal at radio frequency be-
fore 1t is rectified by the detector, 1t
Is termed a radio frequency amplifier.
If the tube functioning as an amplifler

tector. 1t is termed an audio frequency
amplifier.

tive potential was applied to the
grid by means of "C' battery so
that the tube would function at a
point represented by "a" on the
characteristic curve. IL now the ap-
piled grid potential from the "C" pat

FROM this 1t can be seen that If the

be distorted.

TIPS TO RADIoIsTs

At Muncie, Ind, bacon was

rent. At last an explanation for
that frying" noise.
Clifford Pinchot, nominated for
governor Of Pennsylvania by the
vote of the people, acknowl-
edges his great indebtedness to
the radio. A primary coil no
doubt played an important part.
An inventor of Chicago claims
to have invented radio apparatus
that permits of successful com
munication with the spirits.
We hope that the anti-prohibi-
tionists will not misinterpret
this claim.
The police department of
Portland, Ore, has asked for an
appropriation for radio receiv-
ing and broadcasting stations
and to equip the police automo-
biles with radio apparatus. Cop
per wire, 1t Is needless to say,
will be used.
Lord Northcliffe, famous Eng
lish editor, in speaking of the
future Of Journalism, recently
predicted that radio would have
an effect upon the publication
of newspapers that will equal
the invention of the linotype
and high-speed press. He said
that radio would undoubtedly
come into general use of news
papers and newsgathering agen-
cieS.

ton of the curve determines the am
plif1cation Of the tube. The more
nearly vertical the straight portion
Of the curve is, the greater will be
the change in plate current for a
given change in grid potential, or in
other words, the louder will be the
response In the telephone receivers
corresponding to given received
signal. The length of the straight
portion of the curve determines the
maximum variation in grid potential
that will cause the tube to function
properly without distortion.

WASHINGTON, Jan. IL. - Oppo-
sltion of newspapers to enactment OF
proposed anti gambling legislation
which ,woud prohibit publication of
racing odds and other data which
could be used in betting, was voiced
today before a senate judiciary sub
committee by S. E. Thompson, gen.
eral manager of the Chicago Trib-
une and a representative or the legls-
ative committee of the American
Newspaper Publishers association;
Elbert III. Baker of the Cleveland
Plain Dealer; w. f. Wiley OF the
Cincinnati Enqplrer; and X. K NC
Cormick of the Chicago Tribune.
II. N. Pringle of the National Re-
form bureau. and Rev. William S.
Chase of Brooklyn were among those
who spoke in support of the bin.
The legislation is proposed in a
ider to the postal bin, which has
passed the senate and in bill in
troduced by Senator Stirling, Repub-
lican of South Dakota. The COM
mittee annou oeG there would be no
further hearings.
While not specially authorized by
the 500 newspapers of his association
to speak fci them, Mr.. Thompson
stated that he had submitted TO prac-
tically all he larger newspapers a
standardization of his statement, and
that all except one supported his po-
stion. He declared that not more
than 10 per cent of the members OF
the association printed racing en-
tries with odds and racing results and
that 80 per cent of the papers with
out any federal law to coerce them,
had voluntarily discontinued such re-
ports.

PLAN is REL Gil D

Of the year at Phoenix, Ariz namely,
May, June, July, August, September
and October, the temperatures are
much lower at Prescott, AriZ. / con-
trast the temperatures for three
months at these two places in tabular
form, for the purpose of comparison:
Phoenix-May, SO; June, 1906
July, 1924; August, 1908; Septem-
Der, S64; October S5.4; annual aver
age, SS.5.
Prescott-May, 57.4; June. Sc: July.
1911; August, 70.7: September. $50;
October, $40; annual average, 52.7.
Great heat Is absolutely detrimental
to the favorable treatment of tuber-
culosis. Therefore there is no ques-
ton that the climate of Prescott, plus
its elevation, is infinitely superior to
that of Phoenix for the treatment of
tuberculosis.
The elevation at Prescott, Ariz.,
is $500 feet
The elevation at Phoenix. Ariz.,
Is 1108 feet.
1t Is obvious from the above. that
If additional hospital facilities are
provided at Phoenix or Tucson, an
equal number of beds should be fur
nished at more suitable sites during
the hot summer months; in brief, du-
plicate institutions. This policy would
also involve expenses incident to clos
ing or materially curtailing hospital
activities at one place during the
summer and at another during the
winter as well as heavy transporta-
| tion charges for patients and person
| mel between the points involved.
The bureau stands ready to trans

! hospital treatment now in Arizona
| either to Prescott. Ariz., to Denver
| Colo, or to Camp Kearney. San
Diego, Cal, where there are available
beds in government hospitals, and tc
provide necessary attendants to care

viding additional hospital facilities
either at Tucson or Phoenix, Ariz
When the bureau offers to transport

GEO. H. MAXWELL s
DEVELOPMENT PLAN

George H. Maxwell, executive di-
rector of the National Reclamation
association, who arrived in Phoenix
yesterday morning, is making Wig
orous campaign in behalf of the So
called "All-Arizona Plan" for the de-
velopment of the reclamation re-
sources of Arizona and the Colorado
river basin in California and south
ern Nevada.
He win leave for Tucson on Satur-
day or Monday evening next and will
speak at Yuma on Tuesday, the 18th.
Wednesday will be spent in the Inn
perial valley. Mr.. Maxwell is advo-
eating the immediate construction OF
the Sentinel reservoir on the Gila and
se Glen Canyon reservoir on the
Colorado for the protection OF the
lower Colorado river from floods. 1t
is an application to this country of
the plan adopted for the protection
OF DAYTON, Ohio, and other towns on
the Miami river, following the de-
structive flood on that river In 1873
the plan being to build reservoirs
purely for flood protection, with no
purpose of holding the water back for
either power or irrigation. AS Mr..
eryoir is what is needed for flood
protection--a full reservoir for irri-
cation or power. 1t is an old idea
in Europe, but the Dayton system of
flood protection was the first adop-
ton Of the plan in the United States"
On Thursday evening, Jan. 1S, Mr..
Maxwell win speak at the banquet of
the Los Angeles Credit Mems asso-
citation on the subject, THE Nile OF
America-Its Value to Southern Cali
fornia," and on Saturday at Oakland
Cal, at the annual convention OF the
California Real Estate association his
subject will be: "A Great National

tion for the Imperial Valley"
After q few days at Sonoma, on the
