Ben.. ,squier Sees Opportunity to

Education of persons unable to read
was a radio telephone possibility pre-
dicted to- members Of the Congress
sional Club yesterday by Maj. Gen.
George O.. Squier, chief signal oficer
OF the Army. Gen., .Squier said with
all persons able to speak and hear 1t
would now be but another short step
to broadcast and make interesting
and popular Important educational
topics. such as agriculture. santa
ton, domestic science-in fact, almost
anything any one could think Of. 1t
was his opinion the educational pos
sibilities of the radio would be an I'M
portant factor In years to come:
/ Immediately would this apply to
music, and in this respect the home
would be revolutionized. No longer
would it be necessary to go to France,
Germany or even New York for the
best in music. Through the perfect
Ing Of the radio a person could have
1t all In his own home.
Likewise, operators everywhere,
though they be in different countries,
would get acquainted. with one an
other and thus bonds of friendship
Eand interest of inestimable value
would be formed -
A practical demonstration of the
radio telephone, including a musical
program broadcasted from Anacostia,
was given to the members of the club
by Gen. Squier. Mrs. kenroot, wife
of the senator from Wisconsin, pre-
sided at the meeting.

TRANSFORMER.
Most radio experimenters know
that when signals are too weak to
operate a vacuum tube detector 1t Is
necessary to provides some means Of
stepping them up in strength before
they are rectihed. One way to do this
is to use radio frequency amplihca-
tion and suitable transformer. A
radio frequency transformer has a
rather low efficiency outside, of the
band Of wave lengths for which it is
designed Unless means are provided
for tuning It. -,
A radio frequency transformer has
been designed. however. which is
tapped at a number of places and al
lows the number Of turns In use to
be varied. by means. of q very novel
switch. 1t is q simple matter to
quickly tune the transformer to the
band Of wave lengths within which
the operator desires to receive. .
By a clever system OF mounting
two or more OF these transformers
may be arranged so that the turning
of one. knob tunes all of them at the
same time. 1t is thus. possible to
have several stages Of radio fire.

being efficient and ,necessitating no
loss Of time in changing from one
wave band to another.
The shaft which carries the
switches Is made long enough to ex-
tend through a panel so that the

case may be. are mounted inside the
