THE CONDENSER.

An important function, or the con-
denser, In tho circuit Of the radio
transWittor, Is to store up energy
IN the form Of an electrostatfc field
ana then TO release this energy by
discharSing across the spark gap
and setting up oscillations OF high
frequency.
In It's simplest form n condenser
consists OF two conducting surfaces
separated by an insulator. known as
n dieloCtrlC. For high voltage con-
densers the dielectric may be air.
glass, or mica and for low voltage
condensers thin sheets of hard rub
Der or oiled paper.
II two conducting surfaces are so
placed that there Is thin layer
Of air between them and the sur
faces are connected to supply Of
direct or alternating current, and
electrosiatiC field will he created
which sets up electrostatic lines OF

tween tho surfaces. II the supply

Say municipalities Have No

According to the opinion recently
handed down in the Federal Dis
trict Court by Judge Lynch, munich
palities in New Jersey, have no au-
thority to fix rates for public utii.-
ties by contract. The case, which
is declared to have been more 3r
less of a test one, was between the
township of Maurice River in Cum

PUBLIC OPINION
GRADE CROSSING ELIMINATION

EDITOR EVENING NEWS:
We notice that according to the
News the railroad companies are
ready to m work on elm
mating the grade crossings in this
city. This is as it should be. The
Public Utility Commission has or
dered this done and as long as the
elimination of the grade crossings is
done according to the railroad COM
panies' own plans there should be
no delay from that source.
We notice also that it has just
been discovered that the Washing
ton street bridge will be as high as
tho houses and that this will he
undesirable. 1t is suggested that
perhaps some change could be made
to reduce the height of this bridge.
This discovery and the suggestion
are rather belated.
A number of citizens Joined hands
at the time this subject was before
the Public Utility Commission and
at their W expense made investi-
cations and had plans prepared
showing how the method Of elimi-
mating the grade crossings could be
changed greatly to the benefit of
the city. These plans were filed
with the Public Utility Commits
sion, and at the hearing it was
proven that the plans were practi-
cal. The only objection made by
the railroad companies was the ex-
ira cost to them.
The city at the time did not show
very much interest in the subject
and the result was that the plans
prepared by the railroads were ac-
cepted. We do not think it advis-
able to start to make any other new
plans now The city has asked to
have the grade crossings eliminated
and the work has been ordered
done by proper authorities. Let the
city do it's share now and without
delay so that the entire work can
be completed next year.
