No Wage Reduction

Fall River, Mass, March 2o.-Re- plying to published reports that a wage reduction in Fall River cotton mills was pending ae means of re- opening many plants at present closed, Charles E. Smith, secretary of the Fall River Cotton Manufacturers Associa- ton, issued a statement tonight deny ing that wage reduction had been dis cyssed by that body.
 There is no foundation to any ru- mors of wage reduction having been discussed by the members of the cot ton Manufacturers Association, and there are no meetings of the associa- ton scheduled for such discussion" Mir. Smith said.

 Coal Mining Contracts

Indianapolis, March 2o.-The rank and file of the United Mine Workers of America ratified the new wage scale agreement, assuring peace in the bitu- minous industry for three years, by an overwhelming vote, 1t was announced here this afternoon. The vote was 164,858 to 26,253.
 The new agreement, which was ne gotiated at Jacksonville, Fla, last month, will continue present wages and working conditions in effect for an- other three years beginning April 1.

U. s. STEEL HAS lO8 MILLION NET
 AND 8 HOUR DAY
Garys Old Bleat About Loss Through Shorter Day Shown Up
 By Facts

Complete elimination of the twelve hour day in the plants of the United States Steel Corporation became affec- tive on February 1 last, Ebert H. Gary, chairman of the board of directors, in formed stockholders in the 1923 annual report this week, which showed gross and net earnings, exceeded by only one other peace year in the history of the worlds premier industrial company. Other steel manufacturers have readjust- ed working conditions on similar basis so that the industry as a whole has finished the task of establishing the ba- sic eight-hour day, undertaken at the behest of the late President Harding.
 The wage rates of employees whose working day was reduced from twelve to eight hours were so adjusted as to crease of 25 per cent. in the hourly and base rates previously paid, and the wage rates of all employees reduced to or con- tinued on a ten-hour basis were advanced 10 per cent to equalize unbalanced con- ditions in rates brought about by the ad- justments Ill the wage scale for em- ployees reduced from twelve to eight hours, Judge Gary said in his report, which is being forwarded to stockholders today.
 Of the $146,824,5O4 increase in the total pay roll last year resulting from the change to the shorter workday ap- proximately 60 per cent. arose from en- p1oyment of additional men and 40 per cent. from increased wage allowances where hours of service were left un- changed The number of additional en- ployees required by those companies which were operating on an eight-hour basis at the end of 1923 was 17,117, an increase of more than 10 per cent.

 The total value of business transacted by all companies during the year, as rep resented by their combined gross sales and earnings, equa1ed $1,571 ,414, ,483, compared with total of $1 Oo2, 2,6o7,772 in 1922.

NEW ENGLAND ]. MILL WORKERS
 PROBING SOUTH
Send Mass. Investigator to Study
 Southern Labor Casts

Charles c. Woods of Northampton, Mass. commissioner of councilation of the department of labor assigned to New England, is in Georgia making tour of the south to study industrial condi- tions i'll the southern textile mills. While is has been said that MT. Woods trip is to investigate the allegations that south ern mill operators are able to produce more cheaply than northern millers by paying lower wages and operating longer hours. Hugh L. Kerwin, director of corn- citation of the department of labor at Washington, denied that any such pur- poses motivated MT. Woods trip. MT. Kerwin said that MT. Woods does not intend to make any report, and that the only reason for the trip is for his own edifcation to enable him to see how la bor is handled in the south so that he might use some of the same principles in handling situations in New England.
 It has also been rmmored that MT. Woods trip was to collect data for the department of labor on working hours and wages of employees in southern mills. Such data have already been col ected by the department and are included in the report of the bureau of labor sta- tistics, with which bureau Mir Woods has no connection.
 That southern mill workers are en- ployed longer hours than New Eng land mill workers is shown in a report of the department of labor for 1922. Of a number of women spinners investi- gated by the department, 527 in South Carolina received under twenty cents an hour, 342 in Alabama, PIP in Georgia, 155 III North Carolina, while in all New England there were but B women spin ners of those investigated who received So small compensation.
 The average wages for women spin ners in Alabama was $017o an hour, in Georgia it was $0225, in North Caro- lima, $0251, in South Carolina $0206. while in Maine the average wage was $0.331, the lowest for any state in New England. The pay for other employees bears substantially similar relation.

SAME ANTENNA NOW

Scheme Of Connections Enables
Family to Hear Different
Stations at Once.
NOTIFICATIONS ARE SLIGHT
Interaction, However, Spoils One
Station Multiple.

In every radio household where
several are interested in the recep-
tion OF programs the individual
wishes OF the members OF the family
will have to be reckoned with soon
after the radio set is installed.
Mother and sister desire to listen to
the opera from WDAP. father wants

the dials and hear the call OF another
station.
rather will be told to fix it SO we
can each listen to the station we
wish"
One receiving set VIII respond only
to one broadcast station at a time;
different dial setting is required
for each station. Hence, several sets
viii be necessary to allow members
OF the family to listen simultaneously
to different stations The average
radio fan has enough parts to as
semble one or more additional re-
ceivine sets on short notice, 50 this
should be no great difficulty.
Scheme OF CcnnectionA.
A number Of sets can be connected
to one antenna If the untuned. or So
called aperiodic, scheme OF antenna
connections is used. This is the type
OF antenna circuit regularly employ
ed In the familiar Reinartz or Haynes
circuit sets. But IL the set be one
having its primary circuit tuned by
means OF a variable condenser, or il
the set uses loose coupling between
the coil connected to the antenna
and the coil connected to the first
tube IL will be necessary to modify
the circuit slightly. This modification
consists of simply winding a coil of
four turns of about No. 20 gauge
double cotton-oovered wire directly
around the secondary coil. The sec
ondary coil is one on any receiver
connected to the filament and grid
of the first tube. The ends OF the
four coil are connected to the
antenna and ground and to the cor
responding coils in the other recetv-
ers.
1t is feasible to use the same bat
terry to heat the filaments in the
different sets. Separ rate batteries
should be used.
Internction Unfendble.
While the method of using several
sets on one antenna works well when
each set is tuned to a different sta
tion, il does not permit listening TO
the same station with each set In
teraction between the sets would
spoil reception.
When a number Of sets are used
the antenna acts as a huge collector,
collecting a little energy from the
radio waves emanating from each
broadcast station. The energy con-
sists OF minute currents that fiow
between the antenna and ground.
The various receiving sets are cap
able of selecting any station from the
