FOR THE NOTEBOOK

Do not tinker with a set when 1t
is working properly.
Enameled wire Is said to be more
efficient than Other forms OF wire
for the aerial.
Try a different station when the
set does not seemlto work well when
listening to a certain station.
Any piece of metal in the re-
ceiver, even screw on the panel,
has an effect on the efficiency of
reception.
Scrape wires at the points of con-
tact until they are bright. This in
sures a good connection and also
aids in soldering.
No matter where a ground wire
is connected 1t should be soldered.
II the aerial and lead-in are pieced,
clean the connection and solder it.
Unless a radio-frequency amplifier
is built correctly, the signal delivered
from the detector will be less in
volume than il a detector alone were
used.
To prevent a pipe that has been
driven into the earth for a ground
from corrodiRg pour gallon of cop
per sulhate solution around the pipe.
Safe lock for radio set can be
made by using single-circuit phone
jack as battery switch. The plug,
when not used to make the con-
nection. can be carried in the
pocket.

ceeded in having the radio appro-
priation defeated.
With the increase in class b sta
tons and the resulting increased in
reference. the situation Is getting
desperate for the Department OF
Commerce. Already overtaxed with
other duties, the inspectors are find.

SO much. But next winter, unless
more money is provided, fans will

from the radio bureau is concerned.
Prepare Legislative Program
In addition to the radio appropri-
alton, there will undoubtedly be sub
mitted to the next Congress an
elaborate legislative program in re-
gard to radio. Judging from the
fate of the White bill and other

more interest is aroused among
members of Congress-, this program
may die OF inertia.

to spread valuable agricultural in
formation throughout the country
with the least effort and with great
est speed attainable.
The Farm Radio Council has been
In process of development for al
most a year. Station KYW, in CHI
cago, has been broadcasting farm
programs which are the seed of =
series of national programs to DO
sent out through the new Organize
ton.
Through the new arrangement,
broadcasting stations throughout the
country will have available for
their dissemination agricultural in
formation OF all kinds, to be put on
at hours most convenient for farm
ers. The information will range
from spot market reports to talks
that will help farmers improve their
business.
The direction OF this organization
Is in the hands of board of direcr
tors, two representing Government
bureaus, five representing farm or
CARNATIONS and two the radio in

with the home folks. Every fan
should take the opportunity during
this period to win as many con-
verts as possible for the new art.
In this way, sufficient strength may
be mustered to at least insure con-
sideration OF radio legislation in the
next Congress.

CONGRESS FAILS

OF RADIO LAW
Rejects Request of Radio
Fans for Money to
Fight Interference.

WASHINGTON, March 26.-Per-
haps no better service could be rem
dered by fans during the summer
months than an educational cam
paign directed at Senators and
Representatives.
There are perhaps more than one
hundred members Of Congress who
know enough about radio to tune
their own set. Among the hundred
are a few who are quite enthusi-
astic about the new art but who fail
to appreciate some of the problems
connected with its development.
This lack of appreciation resulted
in the rejection by the Congress
which adjourned March 4 of the
recommendation of President Cool
idge, Secretary Hoover and the
Budget Bureau for badly needed
increased appropriation with which
to fight interference.
Madden Is Responsible
Chiefly responsible for the failure
OF the recommendation was Chair.
man Martin B. Madden of the House
Appropriations Committee. Mr.. Mad
den is quite a jealous watchdog
and anxious to save taxpayers
money wherever possible. He did
not realize nor understand the ne
cessity for suddenly doubling the
appropriation for the radio service,
particularly since the total number
OF broadcasting stations had not
materially increased. Mr.. Madden
gained the impression from some
source that the money was desired
n order to regulate receiving sets.
and he objected to any such policy.
The necessity for the appropri-
ation is well understood. With II.
the field inspection force OF the ra-
Ito bureau could have been doubled
and more attention paid by it to
the thousands Of complaints of in
reference which pour in from all
sections of the country.
Had there been a few ardent fans
in the House, undoubtedly more
favorable consideration would have
chen given the recommendation for
an increased radio appropriation.
Rep. White, author OF the White bill,
was heartily in favor ofthe appro-
priation, but he was practically
alone. His appeals fell upon deaf
ears and so greatly was ie outnum-
bered that an issue on the matter
would have been useless.
Senators Favor Measure
On the Senate side the situate
was not so bad. Sufficient Senator
favored the appropriate for it's
adoptio and it was included in the
deficiency appropriation bill. When
mis- measure reached the House,
