tune as a single circuit set with
the advantage that interfering sta.
tons are eliminated. This, of
course, refers to interference be-
tween broadcasting station and not
ships having high decrement.
Another big advantage, if one
considers his pocketbook, is thar
with the inevitable change of wave
length of broadcasting stations, 1t
Is merely necessary to pull out one
coil and put in another with nc
dead end losses"
The coils in this type Of set do
not have any taps, the wave length
Of each coil being varied by means
of the variable condenser connected
to it.
Three COndensers.
Three condensers are used The
primary being a 4S plate or .OOt
one, the secondary can be the Same
size but vernier, or it can be a 20
plate type If you have two coils to
use, one for short and the other for
longer wave lengths, the ticker
coil can be shunted by either q
IL or % plate condenser.
The very first thing to ascertain
after the set is connected is the
set in a regenerative condition. The
coils are close coupled drought
near one another), and the rheostat
Of the detector tube tuned up until
the mushy sound is heard in the
telephones. If this sound is not
heard, change the connection to
your ticker coil.
You can find the right connec.
ton beforehand by seeing that the
ticker and secondary coils run in
the same direction. Set the sec.
ondary about half way and the
secondary condenser at zero. The
ticker condenser should be set
where the mushy sound is best.
To Tune In.
Now slowly move the secondary
condenser over its entire scale and
IL stations are working you will
hear several Of them. Stop on the
one you want to listen to and II
you have any interference, move
the primary coil about an inch
from the secondary, then readjus7
your secondary condenser and prob
ably your primary too. II YOU
still hear interfering signals, sep.
arate the coils, more, and read1ust
your condenser. The farther apart
you have the coils, the more critical
will be the adjustment of the sec.
oid condenser, and this is where
the vernter will come in mighty
handy.
1t is not unusual to pick up more
than one station with just turning
the vernier on the second condens
er. In this way stations assigned
the same wave length may he
copied at will. 1t is well known
that even though stations may lie
assigned $50 meters they may hn
a meter or 80 off.
Whenever II is necessary to use
more than half the values Of vor-
secondary or tlckler condenaars.

WIN
PAYS $4,000
IN SUIT
Agreement Gives Theater
Right to Use Of A. LAT.
Co. Devices.
By COsmOpOlItan News Service.

NEW YORK, April 12.-With the
payment Of a $4,000 license fee to
cover the use Of patented broad.
casting devices during the term of
their patent life, as determined by
the American Telephone & Tele.
graph Co., broadcasting station
WIN, operated by Loew's State
Theater. today had ended it's threat
ened legal battle with the A. T. & T.
The settlement is regarded as of
importance in the radio world, be-
cause 1t establishes precedent
which, it is understood, will be fol-
lowed by the A. T. & T. in dealing
with some 480 other broadcasting
stations which are alleged to be
using, without license, patented de.
vices Of the Telephone Company.
The settlement was effected out
Of court. The suit was instituted
by the A. I. & T. against WIN
after the latter had ignored over
lures by the Telephone Company to
take out a license covering use of
the patented radio appliances.
Terms Of Settlement.
1t is understood that the terms
Of the agreement reached yesterday
between the two parties included:
The A. T. & T. releases WIN
from all liability of claims for past
infringement.
WIN is granted a personal H.
cense, which 1t cannot transfer or
assign, to continue the use of the
station for radio telephone broad
casting.
= The license is based on the opera
ton of the station with a maximum
power Of 500 watts, although appli-
cation later to operate with greater
power will be favorably considered.
Revocation of License.
Should the owners Of WIN vio-
late any Of the provisions of the
agreement, the license can be re-
voked by the A. T. & T.
Officials of the A. T. & T., in
discussing the settlement said that
1t only substantiated the position
taken several weeks ago by Presi-
dent Harry B. Thayer. when he
announced that all patents would
be protected and that all broad.
casting stations which were using
them without permission would be
compelled. to take out a license or
pay damages.

The rest Of Mr.. Kent's political

LAUGHS AT COMPARISON
OF DAILY WORKER WITH
ONEAL'S NEW LEADER

Il was ever so glad to hear you
were ON the Worker" writes a
friend. "They are a live bunch
and II is certainly some paper. /
compare it with the New Leader of
New York. The comparison makes
me laugh. Your paper, militant,
defiant, aggressive, educational
with no pretense to high brow
stuff and theirs an expression of
timid intelligentsia which looks
with longing envy on the respect
ables and hopes that some day they
may be COMPOUNDED with them.
"The only cancellation / get is
that the Wsllings, the Spargos and
Chester Wrights must feel that IL
is too bad they parted from such a
sterilized, denatured bunch them
selves, even if they found a shelter
under tint wing of that foul bird,
not too old to long for carrion, but
far too old to fly and which can
only flutter his ill-feathered wings
and squawk at Russia"

LIVE MASSPAPER,
SAYS PRAvDA OF
DAILY WORKER
Russ Communist Daily
Gives High Praise

MOSCOW, March 24.-The appear
ance Of the DAILY WORKER, of
Chicago, is hailed by PRAVDA, Of
fetal organ Of the Russian Commune
list Party, as follows:
The American Workers Party has
started to publish "The Daily Work
err, the first Communist English Ian
guage daily in the world. The Office
Of "Pravda" already received a few
issues. Judging from these the Iblily
Worker is taking the right course and
is real live mass paper answering
the needs Of the workers. THE Daily
Worker is also printing serially Libe-
dinsky's book "A Week".)
The Workers Party has II dailies
in foreign languages serving the
needs Of the foreign-born workers in
America. The fact that the Workers
Party was able to raise 100000 for
the purpose of publishing the Daily
Worker proves that the American
workers realize the Importance of a
daily Communist paper.
Bankers Couldn't Stop 1t.
The Daily Worker is publshed in
Chicago. When it became known that
the party decided to publish this paper
the bankers and business men of Chi
cago started a campaign to brighten
the workers about the horrors Of
Bolshevism. But this attempt was
futile.
This organ has to carry a different
character from that Of the German,
Jewish, Russian, Polish, Ukranian,
Lithuanian, Finnish and Hungarian
papers. All of these publications
have a circulation of $4,000. This is
a very large circulation in view of the
$4,000 members in the party. If we
are to take into consideration that
one paper is read not only by one
worker but also by members Of his
family and friends, this circulation
does not represent the actual number
of readers.
Daily Worker, Farmers Organ.
The Daily Worker will have to sup
ply all information regarding strikes,
workers conferences and conditions
of the working class. The paper must
also serve the farmers as well as the
workers. Comrade Zinoviev in his
contribution to the first number of
the Daily Worker pointed out the re-
lationship between the workers and
farmers and stressed the significance
of the farmers in the struggle as the
conditions in the United States are
such that the farmers are more revo-
lutionary than the workers. This
condition is explained by the crises in
which the farmers are now passing
Before the Daily Worker lie big prob
lens, large field and many tasks.
Warmest greetings to the first
Communist daily paper in the English
language in the land of the greatest
revolutionary possibilities.

Big Revolutionary
Meeting Is Held by
N. Y. Workers Party

NEW YORK, Mar. 24.-The large
crowd that packed the New Star
Casino to celebrate the Paris Com
mune was one of the most enthusi-
astic that has ever attended meetings
conducted by the Workers Party.
From the very beginning when the
chairman Of the meeting, District Or
ganizer Charles Krumbein, mentioned
the Paris Commune the crowd
cheered for long time, and this was
enthusiastically repeated every time
the speakers that followed mentioned
the heroic struggles of the French
comrades and those Of the Russian
comrades.
The meeting was proof of the
growth Of the influence Of the Work
ers Party in this city, for not only
was the New Star Casino packed but
similar meetings we're held in many
parts Of the city.
An excellent musical program was
rendered and the meeting closed with
the crowd singing the International.
