1t is possible to eliminate the fila
ment battery altogether by using a
crystal detector circuit in place of the
tube detector circuit
Another difficulty met with in this
type of filament heating is that the
characteristics of the cure mt OBJ
tanned from power houses is not
always constant and may vary con-
side bly, from time to time.
While this form of filament current
supply forms an interesting field for
experime ntation, / do not recommend
1t for the average fan who merely
wants to get results. In experime mt
ing with the method of filament cur
rent supply it is necessary to be care
full that the voltage supplied to the
filaments of the tubes is not exces-
Sive.
The use of this type of current
supply Is not suitable for use in the
plate circuits of a receiver.
A new development in the effort to
eliminate batteries will be described
tomorrow.

ground it was without authority
to conduct the investigation.
Daugherty's refusal to face his ac-

Daugherty based his refusal to ap-
pear ON the decision of Judge Coch-

Attorney General.
A sweeping denial of any illegal,
corrupt or unethical' conduct as At
torney General was made by Daugh-
erty in his letter.
Daugherty declared he believed
the committee was engaged in a
desperate attempt to blacken his
character, and notified the commit
tee that he would no longer permit
his counsel to attend the hearings
for him.

President Harding transferring juris-
diction of the naval reserves from
the Navy Department to Fall in the
Interior Department. was illegal.
"This order is counter to the we'll
understood policy of Congress, -
Walsh said. "Its illegality ought to
have been recognized by everyone
concerned in its PRONUNCIATION. The
idea that the President may by his
fiat transfer powers reposed in or
duties imposed upon one Cabinet
office to another is intolerable and in
defensible."
Referring to DENLY, Walsh stated
the former navy secretary had sane
toned the leases because he had
been told the reserves were being
drained.
"He was unable to recall who told
him so," Walsh said, ''but he as
sumed full responsibility for the
policy"
In connection with the Teapot
Dome lease to Sinclair, Walsh said:
1.-THE negotiations leading to the
lease were conducted in secret. There
was no competition. No explanation
whatever is found in the record for
pursuing the course that was fol-
lowed"
Outlining the evidence that Do
heny sent Fall 100000 in cash in a
black satchel by his son, and the ad-
mission that Sinclair, through his
counsel, J. w. Zevely, gave Fall $685.
900, Walsh says:
"Your committee ventures no
opinion as to whether the transac-
tion was in fact a loan or whether
1t might more appropriately be other
wise denominated. Though the COM
mittee refrains from characterizing
the transaction, it does not hesitate
to condemn it as in the last degree
reprehensible on the part of all con-
cerned in it. The essentially corrupt
character of a loan made under such
circumstances requires no comment.
"It would be impossible for an
officer to accept a loan of such an
amount or perhaps any amount un-
der the circumstances without a
sense of obligation to the lender"
Walsh also mentioned the $4,000
contributed by Sinclair to- the Re-
publican campaign fund and the sub
sequent addition of $4,000 to help
make up the party deficit. He also
pointed to the contribution of Do
heny to both party funds.
In concluding, Walsh stated that
the committee may later attempt to
get additional evidence when the
courts have determined when Sim
clair, Fall and others will be re-
quired to testify.

PICTURE POSTCARD
INVENTOR CELEBRATES

GOTTINGEN, Germany, August.
13.-Heinrich Lang, who has just
celebrated his 50th anniversary as
proprietor of a stationery and art
store in this city, has achieved more
than local fame by the tact that Lr
was the first German to bring out
a view postal card.
Shortly after taking over the bust
ness, Lange had the designs for The
first series of souvenir cards drawn
by a Gottingen architect, Hide
brand.
Since then the sending Of souve-
mir postal cards has become so pop
ular in Germany that it is a common
practice for the German tourists TO
order post cards at the same time
that he orders his beer aud his meal
Some inveteratc post card senders
can even be observed dashing out Of
the train at every station and hur-
riedly writing and mailing a view
of the town through which they hap
pen to pass.
