modulating, simplifying and other
purposes and In a large station these
are very complicated and powerful.
For example, the Westinghouse sta
ton at Newark uses FIVE $50 watt
tubes-two being used as oscillators
and three rs modulators-and which
work in conjunction with two fifty
watt speech ampliiers. The current
used In lighting Is ten volt A. c.
with Ave amperes Of radiation. For
sending the sounds, microphones are
used and Ia maintain an even cool
temperature on the tubes a rotary
fan Is employed. In this station the
coil or lnductance Is a fiat or pancake
helix wound with half-inch copper rib.
hon while a special motor generator
furnishes a 1900 volt current for the
plate. The aerial Is of the multiple
tuned type OF six 15Ofoot wires at a
height Of 210 feet above the ground
with a counterpoise of twelve wires
on thirty foot spreaders twenty feet
above the roof and below the aerial.
As a lead-in. a ten wire cage on hoops
two inches In diameter is used.

CONTROLLER COLE HAS

George 4. Cole, state controller, is

Emmett D. Boyle, who is in a position

Mr.. Coles qualifications, the follow

Mr.. Cole is a conspicuous example
of the ability OF q man to make him

George Cole Is known in every
town and settlement in Nevada. He
has been here more than thirty years
and he knows what hard work, suf-
fering and courage are. A natural
aptitude for public life placed him in
the legislature from Nye county in
1904 and again in 1912. He was an
indefatigable reade rand his famil-
iarity with works On law, on soci-
ology, on civil government and ON
economies is surprising. He was
elected state controller first in 1914
and in 1918 the people sent him bach
again after sizing up his administra-
ton OF that important Office. Few
resorts to the courts were made nee
essary during his incumbency because
when he vetoed the allowance o. q
claim he furnished such cogent rea-
sons for his action that the courts,
which formerly had been the first
and last resort for the settlement oil

given a rest.

for a general lowering of railroad

Cooperation of railroad organiza-

railroad executives when they met

SOVIET LETTING Up
IN WAR ON CAPITAL

Dy the Associated Press.
MOSCOW, May 22-New DEGREES,
which government leaders say are
designed to encourage the independ
ent capitalistic reconstruction of
Russia on Russia's terms, have been
promulgated coincidentally with the
close of the Genoa conference.
The council of commissars has an
nounced removal of the state monop-
oily on trade in agricultural impIe-
ments and seeds, permitting private
persons to buy abroad through the
commissariat Of foreign trade. Mean
tee, which is now in session. passing
bills legalizfng private property to
certain degree, has also decided to
permit Inheritance by husbands or
wives and direct descendants of a
maximum of 5000 gold rubles. The
permitting ground leases up to fifty
nine years, instead of the thirty-six-
year maximum originally intended.
The municipality of Petrograd has
decided to hand over to the owners
for life possession all the smaller
houses, the maximum being seven
apartments. Similar returns of houses
are being made in some of the
provinces. and the Ukraine is turning
back -four mills of small capacity to
the owners.
The newspapers echo the govern
ment view, reiterated throughout the
progress of the Genoa conference,
that Russia did not expect any ma
terial aid from the allied govern
ments.
"The soviet delegation is returning
home strengthened. 1t has in its
pocket a treaty with Germany and
the sympathy Of the labor classes Of
all the world" says the Rabotchi. y

Europe won't be reconstructed by
ukases from England and America.
but through joint labor. Such is the
outline of a plan respectfully sug-
gested for attention after the total
failure of the Lloyd George method
at Genoa.
Unhappily no authority sponsors
this plan. France had wholly
negative policy at Genoa, and The
Hague meeting, which the United
States wisely declines to attend. will
be a pale continuation of the efforts
which proved their futility at Genoa.
Nothing will be accomplished there
except further irritation Of Europe's
sore spots.
The Anglo Saxon reconstruction
plan is bankrupt. When shall we
have continental plan? When a
French plan?

CHICAGO, May 22.-Rates should
not be reduced until more economic
operation of the railroads has been
effected, L. w. Baldwin. vice presi-
dent of the Illinois Central railway,
said today in an address before the
International Railway Fuel Associa-
ton. He urged more conservation of
coal
''The public has the right to demand
of the railroads, as public servants,
that they exhaust their best efforts to
furnish the most economical service
possible" he said That does not
mean that they should neglect the
properties in order to reduce rates,
but it does mean that they should
be constantly on the alert to stop
all waste and leaks in the business
of performing transportation serV-
ice.
For some time there has been agi-
tation for reduction in rates. 1t Is
important that rates should not be
reduced until the spread between
operation revenue and operation ex-
pense is reduced.
I'VE are seeking to do that by oper-
ating economically. We must take

Poincare, in Strasbourg Address,

STRASBOURG, Alsace Lorraine, May
22.-The keynote Of Premier Poin
cares first public speech since the
close of the Genoa conference was
distrust Of Germany and the resolve
of France to obtain war reparations.
The occasion was the congress Of the
French National Veterans Associa-
tion yesterday. at which representa-
tives of the American, British and
other veteran associations were pres
ent.
NJ Poincare, mindful Of the city in
which he was speaking, seized the
opportunity to denounce what he
termed "the insidious plottings of
Pan-German propaganda at home and
abroad. notably in America. to sepa
rate Alsace-Lorraine from France.
