ground in the circuit other than aef'"' '
C. E.M
Answer i. An aerial must not be
used with this system for two reasons;
first. n an aerial is used, too much
energy will be picked up and as re-
suit OF the tremendous ampliheation
which the system gives, the whole set
will be paralyzed; and second, n you
use an aerial, there will be a tremen-
Gus amount Of radiation and you VIII
interfere with practically every other
set in your immediate vicinity. 2 An
nudio-frequency transformer IS used
before the third tube. This tube, OF
course. is the regular ampliher tube
similar 10 any one-step ampliiier IN the
ordinary system. This transformer
can be OF any standard make. 3. An
ordinary vario-coupler can be used Tor
the tuning circuit and ticker coll. In
this case the primary OF the vario-
coupler really becomes the secondary
oscillatinZ circuit Of the entire system
ard the rotor OF the coupler becomes
the tiekler coil. You will probably
find IL necessary 10 double the number
OF turns on the rotor when using the
standard vario-coupler. 4. A 6-yolt
storage battery can be used rs an "a
battery. which will be common for all
three tubes. 5. "B" batteries are used
on the plato circuit OF all three tubes
with ninety volts each on the first two
tubes and 200 volts on the third tube.
6. The voltage used in the telephone
circuit Is 200 volts, as stated above.
This il obtained by using q separate
"p" battery Of 10 volts and then con-
meeting IL in series 10 the sO-volt bat
terry used on the other two TUBES. Inc
negative lead Of the llO-yolt battery Is
attached TO the positive terminal OF
the q0-volt battery. Z. Since the loop
aerial is used with this set, II - not
necessary 20 have the ground COZ nee
tion at all. although OF course you
can follow the practice OF some eHper, +
menters in connection with ioop aet'',s
by grounding one side Of the loop. II
YOU do this. the loop then becomes alb
solutely uni-direetional and can only
receive signals when one OF its edges
h nointed toward the station from
which you desire 10 receive. II you
turn the loop completely around, so
that the opposite edge Is pointing
toward the station, you will not get
signals at all, because Of the uni-diree-
,ionai eject that a grounded loop has.

Eliminating Static

Question-we have $500 radio set
We have heard from Pittsburgh Phllad'l-
phia. Springfield Mass and a few times
Chicago. Newark being cur nearest sta
tion. we can always get The other night
We heard Marconi AZ Schenectady but the
static was very bad az times Can YOU
tell whether there are any new inven-
lions that we could add 10 our machine
90 cut out the static? We ceralnly enjoy
IL greatly and wish We could get rid u
the static We hear from stations 2NJ,
2NZ. 2NY. 3XB. 3NY and WILL. We are
located forty miles from New York
~. A. g.
Answer think that what you have
mistaken for static is really regenera-
tion. caused by not having the correct
adjustment on the Vernier handle.
This handle must be adjusted very,
very carefully, and very, very slowly.
II you hear a kissing sound and then
begin 10 vary the Nernier handle you
will find that il will 90 either up or
down the scale. II il starts from a
very high pitch and goes down to a
very low one you will get Il 10 the
point where il stops altogether, and II
you carry IL aellttle further you will
find that Il starts IN ~ a very low pitch
and then ascends 90 the high pitch
until IL is lost altogether. The point
at which the Vernier handle should be
is Just between the two low pitches or
the two low notes. II is az that point
that the music will be ut It's best,
When you reach that position you
should then reduce the amount OF cur.
rent flowing through the hlsments OF
your vacuum tubes by adjusting the
rheostat handles until the music is ab-
soluteiy clear and free from any dis
tortion. OF course you will get static
and there are no means known TO
science at the present time by which 1t
can be eliminated. You can, however
eliminate lot OF the unnecessary
noises in the receiving set II you VIII

Question:. IL there any drain on the
IN" battery whom the nlamcnts of the
tubes are not lighted In other words Il
N necessary 90 break tho high voltage
circuit by a series switch when the sef is
not IN use what ~ meant By the
'gpod' - yario-coup'cr Faflometcr sei
FOR 'f0-meisr work. Does this rofer 10
signal audibility distance covered or
sharpness of tuning a. X
Answer. There should not be any
current flow in the "B" battery when
the hlaments Of the tubes are not
lighted. but you will find that the in
elusion OF a switch in the "B' battery
circuit will be Of great assistance in
a lot Of ways, and will cut down any
possible leakage that might otherwise
occur. 2. The statement that honey
comb coils are not as good as the
yario-coupler variometer circuit for
short wave work refers particularly
10 sharpness OF tuning and general
handling OF the set. This is due 20 the
fact that the inductances In the honey
comb coil set are not az all adjustable
and in order 20 vary the oscillating
circuits u is necessary 20 do 80 by
means OF variable condonsers, and
when We get down 10 short waves j,
means that there is minimum amount
Of capacity needed 20 get down into
resonance with the short wave and con-
sequently the capacity coupling is at
its lowest value. Fer this reason they
are not as efficient as the yario-coupleI
yariometer set on short waves.

All but Five States
Have BrOadcasting
Stations at Work
Department of Commerce
Has Already Licensed
More Than 800; Applica-
tions Are Still Being Made

The application for licenses TO op-
crate broadcastng stations In different
parts Of the country shows no sign Of
abating. More than 800 have already
been passed upon by the radio in
spectors and licenses issued by the De-
partment Of Commerce. There are
only FIVE states in the Union which
have no broadcasting station at all.
Hawaii and Porto Rico have lately been
added TO the places boasting a radio
phone transmitter.
II must be remembered that the range
Of the broadcasting stations varies
greatly, according TO the power used by
them. Some are operating on two fve-
watt tubes, or, in other words, with a
smaller power output than large num-
Der Of advanced amateurs use. Such
stations can operate successfully only
in their own particular locality.
At the present time the Secretary Of
Commerce has no power 70 refuse to
issue license provided that every re-
ouirement Of the law has been COM
piled with, and the result is that in
some cities there are as many as hf-
teen broadcasting stations in opera
ton, all working on the same wave
length. The bill which IS now before
Congress will give the Secretary
broader powers in this respect.
Some of the broadcasting stations
are poorly equipped for the purpose Of
broadcasting entertainment, and they
arc not limited az TO the matter which
they can broadcast. Under the pro-
visions Of the proposed law no direct
advertising matter will be permitted.
The most recent licenses granted are

DEMAND FOR ANNUAL
RESOURCES EDITION
IS UNPRECEDENTED

Phoenix never had such advertis-
ing as 1T is getting through The Re
publican's Midwinter Resource edi-
tion. Beginning Sunday morning, be.
fore the office force had fully mo-
bilized, citizens poured into the Of
flee to secure copies of the 120-page
edition to send to friends in different
parts Of the United States to let them
know what kind of country this is.
Others telephoned to inquire whether
the supply would likely be gone be-
fore Monday morning. But hundreds
of copies were taken Sunday, and
yesterday truck load after truckload
poured out of Our Alley" toward the
postoffice, and other loads were car
ried away by patrons.
There are now in the mails copies
of the paper destined for every state
in the union, and others to Great
Britain, Australia, Argentine, Brazil,
Ireland and Hawaii.
All day long, from early in the
morning, the counter of the circula-
tion department was crowded by pur-
chasers and the increased force of
that department was kept busy dis
tributing copies of the paper.
The papers, either flat or wrapped
for mailing. will be found at special
stands on the streets today. Since
Sunday morning messages of con-
graduation, delivered in person, by
letter or by telephone, have been COM
ing into the office of The Republican,
and attaches OF the paper have been
stopped on the streets by citizens
who wanted to tell what they thought
about the edition.

[RepubIIcan A. 2. Leased WIrel


DUBLIN, Jan. 2.-Members of the
Dali Eireann who have been spend
ing the holidays at home are begin
ming to return for the resumption of
the sessions Tuesday.
During the past week Irish public
opinion seemingly has consolidated
in favor OF the peace treaty with
Great Britain and its supporters in
the Dali today expressed far more
confidence of ratification than at any
time since the debate opened.
Their most conservative estimates
are for majority OF about u, and
they declare they do not consider the
possibility of considerable number
OF opponents abstaining from all vot-
ing. Estimates Of the sentiment of
the people vary from IS to 95 per
cent in favor OF the treaty.
At meeting of the Irish CONNER
cial Travellers Federation Saturday
night, President Holland said:
There is nobody in Ireland who
knows the pulse of the people better
than the commercial travellers, and |
can state that 95 per cent Of the peo-
pie are in favor OF the treaty"
Out OF the local boards throughout
the south and west of Ireland which
have expressed themselves on the
treaty, the Bantry board OF guardians
still stands alone as opposed to its
acceptance.
Attention OF churchgoers was ar
rested today by propaganda placards
hung last night on the walls of the
ruined postoffice and in other parts
of Dublin. One was duplicate of
the notice published in the Irish Bull
letin last August forbidding persons
to leave the country without per-
NIT from the home office. Austin
Stack, a strong opponent OF the
treaty, is home secretary, and the
plaeard was taken as a reminder to
The public that the republican gov
srnment is still functioning.
Another poster read:
"Ratify the treaty and save the
empire"
The sources from which the plac-
ards came are not revealed.
The Associated Press was informed
today that inquiries are being re-
ceived by Irish land agents from
wealthy irish Americans regarding
the possible purchase of large estates
In Ireland. Many landed gentry left
ireland during the last year. putting
cases these estates are expected to
pass into the hands of Americans,
who, anticipating return to normal,
are said to desire to return to the
land OF their birth.

Wall Street Has
Few Regrets For
Passing OF 1921
TRepubIlcan A. p. Leased Wlrel


NEW YORK, Jan. 2.-Wall street
views the passing of 1921 with few re-
grets, but looks hopefully to the fu-
ture, although realizing that the New
Year will put the country to even
greater test of its resources and
stability.
Leaders Of industry and finance
emphasize their belief that return to
normal can not be accomplished until
everybody settles down to earnest
work, economy and saving.
For the most part, however, those
who hold the purse strings and con-
troll the countrys important indus
trial enterprises believe that the
United States is destined to grow as
world power.
This belief is largely founded on
the fact that Europe is leaning more
heavily upon this market.
