WIDER FIELD
IN RADIO
''SchooI Life" Ranks e Next
to School, Library, and
Newspaper.

THE school, the library, and the
newspaper are usually ranked as
the three great educational agencies.
The radio promises to take its place
as the fourth. and it appears to be
fast fulfilling that promise" an edi.
torial in School Life," issued by
the Board Of Education, Department
of the Interior, declares.
Continuing the editorial says:
I'VE have seen thus far only the
beginning. The prediction that with
in few years at most every Amer.
lean home, except the very poorest
will have some form Of radio re-
ceiver is reasonable. and it il prac-
tically certain to transpire. The
educational possibilities of the radio
have not been more than suggested,
and have scarcely begun to devlop.
1t is clear, however, that it not
only occupies a place Of its own.
but that it aids and supplements
all the other educational agencies.
Compared with Press.
I'm its ordinary use so far, the
educational effect OF the radio is
comparable to that Of the news
paper. Those who listen in do SO
as a rule for the entertainment they
get out of it, and not because they
wish or expect to be educated that j.
way. But willing or unwilling there
is education in 1t for the most trivial
of them. The mere fact that they
are receiving mental stimulation
from an outside source means much
in itself. The music, the news items,
the talks, and even the jokes by SO
much stimulate the mind to activ-.
ity and broaden the vision of the
listener beyond his narrow sphere.
Even the details of his instru-
ment stimulate scientific inquiry
and every adjustment Is an expert

saves his pennies, buys materials
from the 10-cent store, and con-
structs an instrument that will en-.

an its lightest aspect the radio is
an educational influence of the
first rank because Of the extent
of its use; but that is only a part
of it. Educational institutions in
constantly increasing numbers are
using it effectively for formal in.
structional work In some instances
complete courses of lectures are Of
fered by this means to students
duly enrolled, and certificates are
given to those who have listened
to the entire series. The general
plan, however, is for popular talks
to be given by scholarly speakers,
as a form of extension instruction.

In the amplifier, the C battery
ought to last from eight months to
a year and should be mounted in
the cabinet. A bracket can be
placed around it to keep it station

it lying on its face, or panel.
A word about soldering. 1t is a
simple operation when once under
stood, the main thing being to
have all parts perfectly clean. If
the, parts to be soldered are dirty
you cannot make the solder stick.
The iron must be perfectly clean
and timed also. The parts to be
soldered should be cleaned and
timed "a thin coating of solder
applied to them) then heated with
the iron and a drop of solder APP.
piled to them. Remove the iron
and keep the parts perfectly still
for a few seconds until the solder
sets" Try pulling them apart
with your fingers and if they re-
main intact, your soldering job is a
good one.

Short Connections.
Connections in your set should be
short, but this does not mean the
wires should take the shortest
course and run Zig.zag over the
set. The main lead to be kept
short in a detector set is the one
from the grid condenser to the grid
connection Of the socket. Others
should be short too, but should be
run in orderly fashion. A very neat
layout for a two-Step amplifier is
shown, the numerals being: /, bat
terry switch; 2, rheostats; 8, double
circuit jack; 4, single circuit jack;
5, &c" battery; 6, audio simplifying
transformers, and Z, sockets.
Amateurs, as rule, use a high
ratio transformer in the first step
and low ratio in the second. This
Is all right for C. w. work, but
when a radiophone is to be copied
1t is not as good as two low ratio
transformers. for the former may
distort signals.
You will find that some of the
wiring can be done before all the
parts are securely mounted. All
your parts can be mounted and
then determine which parts will
interfere with your connecting the
wires to other parts, then remove
them.
The panel for the two step ampli
fier shown is 7x10 inches. The
base is 6x9 so 1t will fit into a
cabinet 7x10x7. Use any OF the
good composition panels now on the
market and the cabinet to suit your
purse. The quality of the latter has
nothing to do with the efficiency OF
your set. The transformers are

TESTIFY AGAINST DEMOCRACY
BY IDA DAILEs.

|NNE Of the most interesting in
~ cidents which occurred at the
Workers Party Forum held in Chicago
at the Ashland Auditorium on Sunday
evening, Nov. 10, was brought about
thru question from a member of the
proletarian party. She asked whether
Comrade Browder had any proofs to
sHbstantiate his assertion that the
Workers Party had polled about 1907
900 votes in the recent elections, many
Of which were uncounted.
Immediately voices from the audi,
ence called out to verify this state,
ment. The spontaneous response
from the listeners was the best evi,
dence that could be gotten. One work.
er stated that he had been a watcher
at the polling place in his precinct,
where ten votes had been cast and
one was tabulated, Another stated
that in his family alone five votes had
been cast and two tabulated. A work
er from southern Illinois stated that
nineteen votes had been cast at his
polling place and five were registered.
Comrade Browder stated that any
class conscious worker who still had
illusions about the fairness" Of cap.
italists in counting revolutionary votes
was hopelessly naive. He said that
he did not have to answer the ques-
ton, the answer was right there in the
audience.
II Is very difficult TO estimate the
number OF votes which were really
cast for the Communist ticket, but
think the response from this small
group Of about a hundred workers,
where about thirty uncounted votes
were accounted for, should be an In.

lists polled many more votes that the

Coolidge Attack on Communists Falls Fiat
SCHOOL TEACHERS DO
NOT OVERWORK SELVES
FOR ANTI-RED WEEK

Some Of the public school teachers
had the courage to resist at least
passlveIy the attack Of the Amer
Jean Legion on the schools. In one
school on the northwest side the
teacher in the eighth grade did not
talk about the program prepared by
the Legion.
Being afarid TO lose her job, she
did talk about the constitution, but
failed to glorlfy II. She just men
toned the requirements needed to
become president. All attempts by
the Juniors attending that room to
question her failed as she refused
to listen to any questions, The
members of the John Reed Group
did some good work among the
children telling them what Il 10 all
about.
In some rooms the teachers were
evidently afraid Of the children. The
teachers know that they would not
be successful in passing the bunk,
as the Juniors will demand or give
explanations, so they tried to avoid
all talk.

100 Per Cent Back of
The Soviet Government
lny Vac Federatsd prsssl

MOSCOW.-Crities Of the Russian
government should be given a chance
to show what they can do, says Presi-
dent Kalinin. In an address he de-
clared in favor of encouraging crit
icism, and also urged drawing more
women into public life.
"Our government, born in war and
violence, is going over to the methods
of legal management" he said. I'VE
have no fear of the expression of dis
content, wherever it exists. In fact,
consider it not only possible, but
even advisable, that these same people
who express dissatisfaction at some
mistakes of government should be
themselves at once admitted to work
in the soviets. Non-party people, who
criticize US sharply on this or that
question, may be admitted to the most
responsible and important Soviet
units.
For we know that SO per cent of
the peasants and 100 per cent Of the
workers are behind the Soviet system
of government. Under these condi-
tions the enemies of the Soviet power
no longer talk openly, Therefore be-
tween those who criticize openly and
the government itself there are no diff
ferences of principle but only differ
ences Of opinion"
