The sensitivity Of an audio0 tube
sometimes may be increased by plac-
ing a large horseshoe magnet In q
certain position so that the poles OF
the magnet are on each side Of the
tube. This probably is due to the mag
netic effect upon the moving electrons
that flow across from the fi.ament to
the plate.

Gang wars and Fobberies with
firearms go mcrrily on, despite
the best efforts of organized laws

sections of the country banditry

Commissioner Enright Talks.
Says Commissioner Enright, very
pertinentIy:
1.-THE era of blackjacks, dfrks,
daggers and brass knuck1es has
passed out. The overflow of guns
from the World War has brought on
the era of gun play crimes.
Laws cannot kill the criminal in
stinct in men, but laws can take from
the reach of the criminaIly-inclined
the weapons with which they are
Jeopardizfng the safety and sanctity
of this nation.
Our lawmakers at Washington are
indirectly responsible for the present
frequency of 'gunplay' crimes. Our
lawmakers can remedy the situation
by the passage of adequate measures
restricting the sale and possession of
rearms only for the purpose of pre-

sion of firearms is surrounded by
many false notions. In connection
with some occupations and profess
sions the carrying of a revolver is
necessary and proper. Experience
demonstrates, however, that when the
looked-for emergency arrives the vast
majority either have not the requisite
presence of mind to avail themselves
of the weapon or else the opportunity
is not given them.
1.-THE idea of having pistols in the
home for protection is a fallacy. In
most cases the possession of a shoe
horn or a buttonhook would afford
Just as much protection as a gun. 1t
takes an individual of iron will and
nerve to successfully use a firearn
when attacked; even then, they must
have some warning and, in measure
be prepared for the onslaught
1.-The plea that is often made, then,
for the revolver as a weapon of de-
Tense only is shown to lack substance.
and when you consider how much
grief and tragedy are directly and I'M
deniably attributable to accidental
discharges of revo1vers there appears
to be no justification for permitting
them to be within reach of the gen
eral public.
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer. (Bridgeport, Conn.) 1918-1924, 1922-06-23

In direct contrast to the air of the
Senate is that of the House. Pep and
energy, minus the heavy dignity, per-
wade this active body, and it some
times seems to be anybody's speech
when an Interesting topic is up for
debate.
In the Senate, if the galleries grow
enthusiastic and veature to express
themselves, the fat old men who keep
the doors fly down the steps and rap
on the back, with the admonition to
''cut out that noise or get out of the
gallery"
It's different in the House; here
friendly spirit prevails that finds its
outlet in the hand-clapping when
good point has been made, and the
members look their pleased recogni-
ton of their efforts.
The two outstanding figures in the
House are "Unc1e Joe" Cannon and
Miss Alice Robertson; each in it's
way is, pathetic-Uncle Joe, because
he will soon be named with the ira
ditions of the House, and Miss Alice
because a woman always looks pa
thetic when trying to do, alone, the
work of a man.

venting the criminal element in this
and other large cities of the States
from securing and carrying concealed
weapons 1t prohibits the possession
of concealed weapons without a per-
Lit. Nevertheless, it develops that
criminals keep securing firearms from
the cities across the river in New
Jersey, which State has no laws pro-
hibiting the sale of pistols.
Il fear no successful contradiction
when L tell you that ninety per cent
of the weapons used by criminals in
New York are purchased in New Jer-
sey.
"A Federal law regulating the sale
of firearms in all States would make
it impossible for New York criminals
to buy guns in New Jersey. Attempts
to pass a New Jersey law depriving
the criminals and the fool-hardy of
places to purchase deadly weapons
always have been thwarted by that
faction which derives a revenue from
the sale of firearms and those who
wish to carry concealed weapons with
criminal intent without fear of legal
consequences in the event of detec-
ton.
