Despite a multiplicity Of adverse fac

of disturbing influences last week that
caused selling and also checked the
fresh demand, but where the weakness
was most pronounced some recovery
can already be seen and the general tone
Is better.
The lull in new issues is to be sue
ceeded by rush of new applications for
capital now that the Ice has been broken
by the underground and Indian issues,
the latter Of which is 20,000,000 in "

this week. as well as several requests
for smaller amounts, most of which are
for industrial purposes.
Foreign rail securities were perhaps
the brightest spot in the Stock Exchange
last week. Standing out prominently in
the firm lead were Argentine rails.
Home rail securities on the other hand
had an unsatisfactory week. Another
unsatisfactory feature was the weakness
of French and Brazilian bonds. A rise
In the Paris exchange to over SIS to the
pound caused French 5s and 4s to drop

also were marked down.
Prices rallied on Friday. but Brazilian
rails met with continual selling and
slumped badly. Industrial securities
were quiet and with few exceptions
price movements were unimportant. Oils
continue to be depressed but In this Sec
tion quotations have now reached level

RADIO EXPLAINED !
By F.. H. LEWIS
INSTRUCTOR NEW YORK. YMC.A. RADIO SCHOOL,

fects would also constantly changA
Fading is not at all annoying and
seldom noticeable on long waves of
the order of 1000 meters or longer.
1t is essentially a short wave phe-
nomenon.
No well defined connection was
found during the tests mentioned be-
tween weather and transmission con-
ditions. 1t may be possible, however.
that there is. some connection and
that weather changes might somehow
account for the longer swings of sig
nal intensity. AS has been said, fad
ing does not occur at the normal
transmitting range of station to any
great extent, and then only, usually,
when transmitting conditions are very
bad. At shorter than normal ranges
swinging may occur If conditions are
very bad indeed
Interrupted continuous waves or
voice modulated waves do not appear
to have any advantage over damped
waves as far as fading and swing
ing is concerned. This may be noted
by receiving stations which are con-
siderably too far from broadcasting
station for daylight reception.

A RADIO PLUG.

The plug shown in the illustration
has some rather interesting features
which make it well adapted to quick
changes of telephone connections.
There are a tip and sleeve insu-
lated from each other which make
connection with the spring contact
and a sleeve of telephone jack.
Connections within the plug are
made from tip and sleeve to two
chucks. The tips of a telephone cord
may be inserted in the chucks and
will be securely held. In fact. if the
telephone cord is pulled after the tips
have been inserted in the chucks
they are gripped more tightly and
cannot come loose. No solder is, of
course, necessary.
The plug casing is of bakelite. At
one end of the casing the bakelite is
threaded inside SO that it can be
screwed into place. No screws are
required for assembling. At the

FADING SIGNALS.

At night when signals are being
received from distant stations the
phenomenon of swinging or fad
ing" signas is often very noticeable
and equally annoying. The signals
vary in intensity from time to time.
sometimes quite regularly and some-
times irregularly. They even fade"
completely out at times and reappear
suddenly with rapidly increasing in
tensity. This hardly ever occurs.
however, when the station received
from is within the normal daylight
range of the receiving station.
During the summer of 1920 the
phenomena of fading signals Were
very extensively investigated by. a
prominent amateur relay association
cooperating with the bureau Of
standards of our government. 1t was
found that there appeared to be,
roughly, three types of swing: First,
a very rapid and abrupt kind. which
sounded as though the sender had
omitted a letter or two while send
ing in the regular radio-telegraph
code The length of the swing was
from a half to five seconds. Second,
a moderately rapid and more gradual
type of swing. occupying space OF
time from ten seconds to five min
,utes. This was the most usual occur
renee. Third, very slow swinging
taking place during from five minutes
to several hours. The phenomena
are undoubtedly due to conditions of
the atmosphere, at least in part.
Probably large clouds, banks of fog
and masses of fumes in and around
the vicinity of large steel mills or
smelters have-something to do with
the matter. At any rate, it seems
plausible to blame the trouble on re-
f1ection and refraction of the radio
waves. Light waves may be reflected
and refracted. and it is not hard to i'm
agine that radio waves may be also.
Either reflection or refraction would
bend the waves out of their original
paths, and if the. cause of either phe-
nomenon is constantly changed it is easy
to see that the phenomenon and its eff
