Germany Is Slow
In Radio Progress

German manufacturers of radio
apparatus and equipment are not
in position to make extensive de-
liveries of their product, according
to Vice Consul Nathaniel B. Davis.
Berlin. in a report to the Depart
ment of Commerce. This is due to
the fact that the demand has not
been sufficiently great to warrant
the manufacture of radio instru-
ments in large quantities.
Amateur radio work is not popu-
lar in Germany and stations are
not numerous. Radio telephony in
particular is almost an unknown
science except to engineers, pro-
fessional operators and experiment
tiers.
The principal reasons given for
the lack of interest in radio on the
part of the general public are that
amateur stations are a luxury be-
yond the means of the average
German, under present economic
conditions, and official restrictions
on their use.
All radio communication in Ger
many is under the control of the
federal postoffice department., which
operates the commercial stations.
Private installations must ordi-
narily be made by the department.
but in exceptional cases private
companies or individuals may be
authorized to erect their own
plants, but they must first obtain
a license from the postoffice de-
partment. The fee for such a
license varies according to the size
of the plant, with a maximum of
1000 marks per annum.
At present only one station in
Berlin is licensed to broadcast.
This station broadcasts market and
exchange quotations. Subscribers
to their service are permitted to
install receiving stations upon pay
ment of the license fee and the
monthly subscription rates. which
vary at present from 1000 marks
to $50 marks according to the
class Of subscription. Subscribers
may rent receiving sets from the
postofffce department for $500
marks per month IL they do not de-
sire to build their own.

Denies Interference.

To the Radio Editor:
Anent the tempest in the teapot
brewed a few days ago by one Of
your contributors regarding the
interference of local broadcdsting
houses" in Washington with the re-
ception of music and other pro-
grams from out OF town. l wish to
offer my mite as an evidence that
so far as the interference exists
there amt no such animal"
From what l can gather from
communications you have printed
from those who are able to tune
out the local stations. / judge that
they have steps of amplification or
THEM sets are equipped with plate
and grid variometers. SO that tun-
ing out is easily accomplished.
l have a mere VT. detector set
home made-consisting of an
Amrad variocoupler. a 43-plate con-
denser. a rheostat with WERNER ad-
justment. My aerial consists of
two wires. each 100 feet long, IL
feet above the roof.
Wednesday evening last I listened
in on concerts from KDKA and wwJ
from $50 to 9:15 while NOF was
sending its thunderous notes from
the Marine Band concert and there
was no sign of interference"
Of course my set is not an lex
pensive" one. but there is some
satisfaction in having been able to
receive such stations as wHAS.
WSY. KSB. KYw, WGY. WIZ. WBZ
and W0I in addition to KDKA ana
WV. while our local interfering
concerts" have been thrust upon
us.
As a former user of a crystal set.
I bespeak indulgence for them. The
local concerts are good and our
opportunity to secure the gratui-
tous services of excellent artists is
far better than most of the metro
politan cities with the possible ex-
ception of New York and Pitts
burgh. The local broadcasters
should be commended in their work;
their concerts are sent out at con-
siderable expense and they cost US
not single red cent
If there Is objection to Canned
music" being sent from Washington
why should one put in a VT set
for the sake of hearing IL from
Newark or Parkersburg. Pa?
/ am not alone in being able to
tune out local stun as I have a
friend with an Aeriola. ST.. who is
even more successful than myself.

We hear good deal of talk about
"the good old days" We do great
deal Of signing over the sad pass to
which things are coming today. But
l believe that no matter how dis
couraging surface indications are
now and then. the world is moving
ahead and growing. think that we
humans are learning more about liv-
ing all the time.
Perhaps it takes century to
show change in the human race.
But think Of all the centuries 1t
took to evolve a flaming mass OF
gases into this earth which we
now know. Reflect how long 1t
required to conquer the winds
which long ago tribes tremblingly
worshipped and to learn to ride
above and through them in air
planes.
Humanity moved forward slowly.
We come from life which evolved
in "primeval ooze." When our ami
NAL forbears learned to stand up
right. they had accomplished q
great thing in evolution. To hunt, to
find caves, to evolve a spoken Ian
guage, a written literature all took

>time through which man has been
evolving at 100000 years. Some
call 1t the trifling amount of $780,
900. But in any event and at any
count, we've been long time on
the way.
Even today we know little about
our minds and their workings. We
are lust beginning to realize that
sick nerves may make a bodyrseem
ill-that a badly functioning diges-
ton may mean nothing more than
a soul struggle. Twenty years ago
this idea might have been laughed
out Of court. Today Psychology has
discovered that something is bound
to communicate itself from mind to
body and from body to ind.
With this knowledge why should
we become pessimistic over certain
tendencies of today? The "wildness''
of our young people may be deplor-
able in many senses. But il through
the exuberant self-expression OF
youth we come to ,'reater honesty
with life and ourselves, something
great will be gained. :.
We clutter up our lives with
many ancient prejudices. I'm not
going contrary to bit OF verse by
James Russell Lowell when I say
this. His lines run:
I'm vain we call our notions fudge
And bend our conscience to oui
dealing. -
The ten commandments will no
bulge,
And stealing still continues steal
ing"
This is true. But we have &C
eepted a great many dicta withou
thinking Of them in the light OF to
day. The stage coach has given wa,
to the steam engine. and the auto
mobile. We accept all the discover
les Of science and exploration an,
incorporate the changes in our lives
But in our human relations we NOV

Now Is the Time to Get Rid OF These
Ugly Spots.

There's no. longer the slightest
need of feeling ashamed of your
freckles. as Othine--double strength
is guaranteed to remove these
homely spots.
Simply get an ounce Of Othine-
double strength-from any druggist
and apply little of it night and
morning and you should soon see
that even the worst freckles have
begun to disappear, while the light
er ones have vanished entirely. It
Is seldom that more than an ounce
Is needed to completely clear the
skin and gain beautiful clear COM

Be sure to ask for the double
