There was also stored in the

j. 5. LEADS WAY
IN DEVELOP|N
Of RADIO
More Receiving Sets Here
Than in the Rest of World,
Survey DiscIoses
By ROBERT S. THORNBURGH,

The Unied States has so far out.
distanced other nations in the de-
velopment of radio that there are
probably more receiving sets in
operation in this country than all
the rest of the world.
This was disclosed today by the
Department Of Commerce, follow
ing a worldwide survey of radio.
There are in the United States
from $1,000, 900 to 10000, 900 receiv-
ing sets in use. Great Britain, the
nearest contender, has but 1.200, 900
sets, while in other European ma
tions the number is relatively small.
Stations Everywhere.
Reports. however. revealed the
increasing popularity of radio
throughout the world. Broadcast
ing stations are in operation in
most of the European countries,
with the United States setting a
pace in use of the new plaything
that is rapidly overhauling the
movie in popularity.
The product of the American
radio manufacture is said to be SUI
perior to that of other countries,
although high tariff rates and other
prohibitions against imports OF
foreign equipment maintained by
some nations is restricting sales of
apparatus manufactured in the
United States. Great Britain has
removed a ban on importation of
equipment, but it was understood
that patents held by the Marconi
Company will in effect prohibit i'm.
portation of tube sets.
Canada Best Market.
Canada offers the best market to
sets manufactured in the United
States. although there is a heavy
import duty leading several Ameri-
can producers to acquire controlling
interest in Canadian factories. In
that manner the use of the Ameri-
can style set is widespread through
out Canada.
The survey disclosed that in Bull
garia the importation. sale and use
of radio receiving sets or broad
casting apparatus Is prohibited by
the government. Little interest has
been shown in Greece, where the
government does not permit broad
casting. In Rumania broadcasting
is prohibited, while in Jugoslavia
the use of receiving sets is per-
nritted only to members OF the
diplomatic and consular corps.

Arms and Feet Burned.
shortly after the sacrifice rites
we're started members of the cult,
men and women, carried burns on
their arms and feet. All told the
same story of the mystic rites.
Schalow, 1t was declared by DIS
trict ATTORNEY William Rothe, grew
enthusiastic after he became a.
member of the cult and brought
himself to a religion frenzy wnen
he wished to offer himself as a sac
riffce to the "FIoly Ghost.
District Attorney Rothe said that
night SchaIow went to the Rhodes
farm house. halfway between Grid
lev and Briggs, and asked permits
eion to sepnd the night there.
Rhodes, according to his state
ment to investigators, awoke early
the next morning. He heafd
strange noises coming from
schalow's room and found Schalow
there with Mrs. Rhodes and his
brother, Frank Rhodes.
Schalow was stretched out on the
floor in his night dress and beside
him candles fIickered in the semi
darkness.

as the Coming of the Holy Ghost.

his wife picked up a red hot poker
from the heating stove, spat upon

brother as she stopped over him.
Prayers and groans came from
the brother, Rhodes said, as his
sister scared a cross on his fore
head and branded his body and
the soles of his feet.
The ordeal lasted for more than
an hour with Schalow conscious
throughout the branding.
After the ceremony, Schalow was
able to walk to his home mile
away. He was noticed by early
morning travellers stopping and
PRAYING by the roadside.
Arriving home just at dawn,
Schalow was unable to speak. He
fell on the floor exhausted. his
wife fainting as she grasped mis-
limp body. He was removed to
hospital here and died last thurs
day without regaining conscious
ness.

CHICAGO. March 27.-The we'll
dressed man this fall is going to
appear inches taller, and birds and
vegetables will inspire the color
scheme for his wardrobe.
Wider trousers that taper to
shoes, higher pockets in suits and
overcoats, a sculptural effect of
broad shoulders and stalwart lines
will bring about the new tall sill
houette for men, while pheasant,
beetroot, bracken and heathland
tones, with European pheasant
and American Inca designs further
enlivening the fabrics. will replace
the somber colors of former years.
Red will tinge most of the fabrics.
This was the word that came
forth from the showing of a fall
line on display here, the showing
being an innovation in the mems
garment world, ii was explained,
because of the startling deviation
IN fashions that will be worn
next fall.
Points stressed in the showing
were:
Suspenders must be worn to hold
the trousers in the required
straight lines.
Cuffs are to disappear from the
trousers.
Buttons and pockets in the coat
are to be placed an inch and a
half to two inches higher than
at present.
Waist coats considerably shorter
and so made that they will stay
closed at the bottom when the
wearer sits down.
Overcoats are to be in keeping
with the suits. In the three
button styles,the bottom button
will be where the second button
has been placed heretofore. this
giving the wearer the benefit of
an apparent extra inch in heighth.
