The second point is a difficult
question to decide. If a man re-
quires $50 for a job that is worth
$40 you may explain it as liberal
ity on the part of the donor. If he
receives 500 it begins to look sus-
picious. When he receives several
hundred dollars for a Job worth
$40 or for jobs held together by

does the work and the athlete gets
the rakeoff, because he is an ath-

for action of some board of review.

Grand Canyon = Senatorial Courtesy

THE sensational adventuring into
- national parks finance of Senator
Ralph I'll. Cameron of Arizona last
February, when he tried to kill the
entire appropriation of $8S,000 for the
Grand Canyon national park, has come
to an end with the acceptance by
congress of the conference report APP
propriating $4,000 for the next fiscal
year. The bill has been signed.
During these months Senator Cam
eron stood out alone against the en-
tire United States senate, in fact
against all congress, showing himself
the aggressive enemy of national park
development. 1--WE have spent too
much money, already" he said in his
speech, "for isms and fads and chas-
ing rainbows; and, SO far as / am
concerned, if / can stop it l am go
ing to do it."
He explained that one could reach
the Grand Canyon by county highway,
or privately-owned railroad and
stop there in a privately-owned hotel.
"You can go there j. any way you
want to. by vehicle, horseback, auto
mobile. Pullman car, special train, VI
otherwise; and why should we in the
United States senate appropriate this
money when it isn't needed?"

cabinet Members to Address Congress?

The President let 1t be known, fol-
lowing the cabinet meeting, that he
shares the unanimous Judgment OF his
cabinet that an arrangement whereby
executive department heads could go
to congress whenever matters of In
kerest to their departments were I'M
der discussion and have the right to
speak from the floor, would be very
gratifying
In the Presidents opinion such an
arrangement would contribute to
speeding up the action of the legisla-
tive branch. If the privilege OF Pd-
dressing congress at opportune times
when important legislation was under
discussion should be given to cabinet
members, the President believes many
misunderstanding would be avoided
and the harmonious relations between
the executive and legislative branches
enhanced.
There is bin pending which would
provide tina. members of the cabinet
should attend congress in a group on
stated days each week. This the Pres
ident and his advisers think imprac-
ticable, but they do believe that con-
gress will readily grant the authority
for cabinet members to appear on the
floor when desired by members.

Under the terms of the Frelinghuy-
sen amendment the tariff commission
would be enlarged to ten members,
with salaries of $4,000 each, and life
tenures of Office Not later than De
cember /, 1923, the commission is or

suits of Investigations into conversion

rates of duty necessary. The amend

carry out the commissions extended
duties.
"The determination of rates is
properly subject for expert study
and consideration" Mr.. Frelinghuysen
said. at ought to be in the hands of
a sufficient body of men equipped to
give it specialized study, and having
the authority TO make exhaustive in
vestigation and report TO this con-
gresS scientific conclusions"
He said the amendment which he
proposed would vitalize the tariff
commission and, extend its powers.
He would remove the members OF the
commission from personal and party
pressure.

of the crystals and test a number Of
pieces by means Of q buzzer. You will
probably find that while some crystals
are absolutely useless others are fair
and a few are very sensitive. To
make up such set Is very simple, as
the various parts are merely connected
with insulated copper wire, as shown
In the figure, using binding posts which
may be purchased for few cents.
The whole may then be mounted on
piece of fibre-board or bakelite or 1t
may be set up on neat board or
block and enclosed In case with a
hinged cover. Such a set, including
aerial, etc., should not cost over $40,
and will be found far superior to many
ready-made sets costing much more.
Crystal Detectors and How to
Make one.-The crystal detectors used
In sets such as described are of vari-
Gus forms, Fig. A, but In all the
principle Is the same and they all con-
sist Of crystal cup or holder, binding
screws and an adjustable contact Of
fine wire. They are not expensive In
struments and it is usually easier and
cheaper to purchase them ready made
than to make them, but they are very
easy to construct and any boy can
make practical detector In a few
hours. One Of the sirlplest is shown
In Fig. As, and consists merely Of
fihar base StriD of brass ahOTlt Liza
or 1-S inch thick bent In the form
shown; a brass plate which can be

A variometer may be made in q
very similar manner, using two card
board tubes, one about four inches In
diameter and three inches long; the
three and three-quarters inches in
diameter. The dimensions should be
such that the small tube can turn free
ly, without touching, within the larger
tube and. the smaller the space be-
tween the two, the better; but you
must remember to allow for the thick
ness of the wire to be wound upon
the inner tube. First, measure care
fully the exact centers, so that when
a shaft fastened to the inner tube or
rotor is passed through the larger
tube, the inner one will rotate freely
and evenly without touching or in
creasing the space The entire effici-
ency of the variometer depends very
largely upon the accuracy with which
this Is done. Starting with small
hole about II inch from the outer edge
of the smaller tube, wind on about
twenty turns of No. "a double-coated,
cotton-insulated copper wire, being
careful to keep the turns separated.
Then skip a space Of about an inch,
as shown in Fig. Al, and wind on an
other twenty turns, finally running
the wire through hole, fastening
both ends with drop of glue or seal
ing wax and, leaving five or six inches
of free wire at each end. Starting the
same way, wind the larger tube in ex-
actly the same manner and being sure
to wind in the same direction. When
all are wound, mount the smaller tube
on a shaft inside of the larger tube,
fastening shaft by glue or sealing
wax dropped on from inside, and
mount as shown in Fig. AZ. Finally,
connect one end of the stator wire to
one end of the rotor wire, leaving
plenty of free wire to allow rotor to
revolve, and lead the other two ends
to binding posts, as shown, being sure
TO keep that to the rotor loose to allow
free movement The shaft to rotor
should be equipped with knob and
dial as shown in the cut and the whole
mounted on fibre or bakelite panel
on a proper base.

panel of fibre or bakelite about 3-16
inch thick and 6 inches square and a
wooden or fibre base " inch thick
and 6 inches square, besides screws,
odds and ends, etc. The cardboard
tube and rotor form are preferably
soaked In paraffine, but this is not
essential. Begin winding the card
board tube, starting IL inch from one
end through small hole, as shown,
and wind on SO turns of the No. 26
wire, keeping the turns close to-
gether but not touching. Then,
bring the wire across the tube as
shown in Fig. 81, leaving a space of
one inch bare and continue to wind
on another 80 turns of wire. In
winding, take off three taps
from each section, one at every
twelve turns, beginning at second turn
from top and leaving two turns at bot
tom of winding as shown in Fig. 81,
T. T, 7, finally passing the end
through hole as shown. The whole
should then be covered with paraffine,
or it may be shellacked, although
shellac will decrease it's efficiency and
paraffine will serve every purpose. In
the center, at the bare space which
has been left, Il inch hole should
be bored as shown in the cut. The
next step Is to wind the rotor form,
which is done by winding on twenty
five turns Of No. 20 wire (starting
through fine hole as shown which
forms the ''tickler" coil Fig. 3S, A,
and leaving the two ends of the wire
about 6 inches long and running the
last end through a hole to hold it.
