RADIO AMATEURS
THRONG TO ROGERS
Historic Laboratory in Hyattsville
Is Mecca for Tourists in
This Section.

The historic little laboratory of DIR.
j. Harris Rogers, in Hyattsville, Nd,
has become a holiday mecca for radio
amateurs of the Atlantic seaboard.
Anxious to see the system of under
ground antennae which has come
into nationwide prominence in the
past few weeks by successfully trans
mitting messages to the Pacific
coast and to France, several score of
amateurs and radio engineers have
taken advantage of the Easter holi-
days to visit the veteran inventor.
The interest in the unique antennae
and its successes recalled to mind the
scene at the Maryland home shortly
after the war when the facts about
DIR. Rogers remarkable work for the
Government We're disclosed. At that
time DIR. Rogers was personally con-
graduated by high officials of the
Army and Navy.
Portions of the vast underground
system of antennae that were then
buried under the village of Hyatts-
vile and through which the scientist
was able TO tune in on important
secrets of the German government
are still in place, although not in use
at the present time.
1t was in this same laboratory that
DR.. Rogers perfected his system of
wireless submarine communication
which played an effective role in the
operations OF the American fleet.

HONOR RADIO AMATEURS.

Radio amateurs-"hams" they were
once called-are grabbing off all of
the signal honors when 1t comes to
short-wave transmission.
First, Frederick II. Schnell, an offi-
cial of the American Relay League,
was appointed to accompany the "a
cific feet to study the high frequen-
cies in ship to ship and ship to shore
communication. Sunday it was an
nounced that John d. Reinartz, chief
electrician for silk factory at South
Manchester, Conn, an amateur OF
high standing and one of the leading
pioneers in short waves, had been
named by Capt. Donald B. Mcmillan
as radio operator for the Macmillan
expedition to the Arctic. Reinartz and
Schnell, who will be on opposite sides
of the globe this Summer, hope to
communicate with each other by voice
and by code on a 20-meter wave.

A 10-ohm rheostat will give very
good results for the control of two
tubes at time, that Is, connected in
parallel, while a 6-ohm rheostat can
be used for three or more tubes.
Tubes of the UV-199 and C-299 con-
sumo .06 amperes at volts. The cur
reRt source usually used with such
tubes is a battery OF three ha-volt dry
cells connected in series to give IA
volts, or a 2-cell storage battery, which
gives volts.
For single tube control a % to 80
ohm rheostat should be used; for two
tube control with a single rheostat a
20-ohm rheostat will do. while for
three or four tubes q 10-ohm rheostat
should be used. II five or six tubes
are to be used with a single rheostat,
as is the case in some superhetero-
dyne circuits, a 6-ohm rheostat will
suffice for all of the five or six tubes
that are connected in parallel.

Advice on Hook-Ups.

In attempting to try out some new
hook.up the fan often makes con.
nections rather hurriedly with any
scraps of wire that may be left over
from some previous experimental
work. Frequently one or two con-
nections in the circuit hooked I'D in
this way are so poor that they affect
the working of the circuit.
If you have much experimenting
to do, 1t is wise to cut a number Of
pieces of wire, varying in length, and
solder clips on the ends. Then when
you want to make up a new circuit
it is easy to clip the wires on where
they belong with the assurance that

RADIO SAVES PEACH CROP.
Farmers Enabled to Take Precau

Radio played part in saving the
peach crop in Arkansas from the frost
this Spring. Late in March, with the
peaches in full bloom and the weather
seemingly warm, VINO, Memphis, was
advised by the local weather bureau
that a killing frost was coming out
of the Northwest.
At intervals during the day the
warming was broadcast and the peach
growers had an opportunity to pre-
pare their smudge-pots. That night
when the frost touched the country a
heavy blanket of smoke over the orch
ards prevented any damage to the
trees and the peach crop was saved.

Use the Proper Rheostats for You
Tubes.

To get best results from tubes it is
essential that you know something OF
their characteristics and take those
facts into consideration when design
ing your circuit and using auxiliary
parts with the tubes.
The first requirement calls for the
proper amount OF A battery for fila
ment lighting. Tubes of the UV-200.
C-300, UV-201 and C-301 are rated at 5
volts and l ampere. This means that
they operate best at volts. and that
when operated at that voltage they
draw 1 ampere from the filament or A
battery.
II 1t were possible TO get 5-volt
battery or sufficient capacity to give it
the required ! ampere for a fairly rea-
sonable length of time, and If the
voltage of the battery could be kept
constant. no rheostat would be neces-
sary as control elements.
Use of Rheostat.
The usual arrangements of storage
and dry cells, however, give voltage
OF volts as the nearest to the re-
Quired volts, so that some means Of
reducing the voltage in the circuit
must be used. The means adopted is
the rheostat.
When one tube is used, therefore, a
6-ohm rheostat should be connected
in series in the circuit. If more than
one tube is to be used in a circuit, the
additional tubes can each be controlled
by a separate rheostat, in which case
a 6-ohm rheostat should be connected
into the filament circuit of each tube.
Rheostats should be connected in
the negative filament lead of the A
battery. The positive lead of the A
battery should be connected directly
with the other filament terminal Of
the tube.
Low Resistance Used.
toned are to be controlled from a sin
gle rheostat a lower resistance may
be used. The filament terminals OF
the tubes should be connected in
parallel and the rheostat inserted be-
tween the filament terminals and the
negative A battery lead. With two
or more tubes connected in parallel a
rheostat of ohms is sufficient for
control purposes. Care must be taken,
however, in the choice of rheostat to
use with more than two tubes of the
1-ampere type. The rheostat should
be Of type properly designed to
carry or more amperes Of current
The current requirements of the
UV-201A and C301A tubes are much
lower than those of the tubes men
toned in the first part Of this article.
They are also rated at the same vol
tage, namely 5 volts. but the current
consumption of these tubes at volts
is only .25 amperes, or Il that of the
other tubes.
Variation Explained
For single tube control from a g.
volt source, 20 to 25 ohm rheostat
should be used, although good
enough control, with finer variation

Washington, June 30.-It seems
that the President means to make
his visit at Swampscott a real vaca,
ton insofar as his official duties viii
permit. The reaction has already
been felt in the quality Of news dis.
patches emanating from the sum
mer capital. Some correspondents
have been withdrawn from the Mas
sachusetts assignment and either
returned to Washington or sent to
Dayton, Tenn, for the sensational
features of the forthcoming evolu-
ton trial. 1t is apparent from these
switches that public opinion will re-
turn to the question and the Bible
rather than policies.
Official Year Begins July 1.
In Washington there is little of
political interest to warrant news
paper space. The absence of the
Chief Executive and Congress ac-
counts for the dearth of real live
political information. Seasoned OBJ
servers refuse to become excited
over talks of abolishing certain gov
eminent agencies when Congress
convenes next December. From the
standpoint of government officials
and employees, today is the begin
ming of the fiscal year of 1926. Us
ually new laws became effective on
July 1 and old laws expire on June
80, altho there are some exceptions
to the rule. The most important
features Of the day is that ap-
preparations are made available to-
day and this means renewed interest
in governmental programs, espec-
tally economic activities.
The various internal scraps in the
governmental departments provoke
all sorts of proposals for legislative
cure-alls. There are some senators
and congressman who are now adj
vocating the abolishing of the Fe-
deral Trade Commission and the Tar
riff Commission, because of quarrels
within the organizations as to poll
tics.
There is a similar agitation in sew
eral of the bureaus of the Depart
ment of Agriculture where those
who have been entrenched for years
resent intrusion of new ideas by
incoming executives. The talk of
a%bolishing government bureaus is
just talk and nothing more. For
certain groups have advocated
the abolition of this and the federal
division or bureau, ~contending it was
overlapping, unnecessary, etc. A sur
vey shows that only one or two mi
nor bureaus were abolished by leg
