EAST CHICAGO
TEACHERS FIGHT
WAGE REDUCTION
Educators Call Protest
Meetings
BY HENRY VICTOR.
(Worker Correspondent
STUDENT Of Chleaao Gee.


The teachers of the East Chicago,
Ind. public schools are putting up a
battle against the sweeping reduc-
lions in the salaries of teachers pro-
posed in a schedule submitted by
]. w. Ashbury, superintendent of
schools.
A number of meetings have been
called at which the teachers indig-
nantly protested against the proposed
cut in wages, which will practically
reduce them to starvation.
The new schedule introduced by
Superintendent ]. w. Ashbury, and
which was framed without consulta-
ton with single teacher, provides
a normal increase in salaries of
teachers over a period of As years in
service-in other words, teachers will
be permitted to eat after number
of years of starving. Teachers, I'M
der the new schedule, will begin their
teaching at $1,000 the first year; at
the end of 10 years of teaching ex,
perience their salaries would be
$3.50.
Personal Favoritism.
The above plan of increase applies
only to good" teachers; poor" teach
ers may be employed the second year
without any increase, while super
iors", or excellent" teachers may re-
cetve double salary increase, a fact
so Indignantly denounced by William
Ballou, president of the Teachers AS
ISOLATION, maintaining that personal
tributes by teachers to school Off.
cials are not within the obligations OF
a teacher, and personal favors and
powerful friendships have proved to
be of more worth in making an ad.
vancement than real merit in the
classroom"
Many of the teachers are preparing
to move to Chicago and other cities
where teachers salaries are said to
be higher. They fail to realize that
their only duty is to remain and fight
it out for by running away they will
only meet with a similar situation
elsewhere.

all that are needed from the trans

simply to the batteries.
The rheostat is connected in the

terry, and should be selected to work
with the proper tube. Sometimes the
efficiency of the set can be increased
by connecting a fixed condenser Of

phone posts.
Amplification can be increased by
adding voltage to the "B' battery,

ton. Forty-fiYe volts will give good
results on the phones, but the higher
voltage will be more suitable for

Sufficient energy is obtained from
a receiver to operate a loud-speaker
by means of a sound magnifier, called
an audio-frequency amplifier. The
function of this instrument is to in
crease the force Of the original signal
delivered from the detcctOr. In its
common form an amplifier Of this
type consists of another tube and a
transformer.
The connections are made as shown
in the sketch. The amplifier here is
used TO increase the volume Of the
signal delivered by a One-tube set, or it
may be connected to the output of an
other amplifier to obtain greater vol
ume. This addition to a set is per-
haps the easiest that can be rsudc
BIZ q novice, because the connections
are easily made and are clearly
marked.
To make the amplifier, a trans
former, tube, socket, rheOstat and five
binding posts are required. The tube
may be of any type suitable for ampli-
ficatiOn, 100, 201-A or similar types,
with reference for the latter because
of its larger clements giving greater

THUNDER STORMS
MADE BY RADIO

Synthetic thunder storms are an
other broadcasting achievement at
ROA with the result that Grand
mother Nature faces further defeat at
the hands of radio.
Radio thunder, they say, can be
made to penetrate the four corners OF
one of more continents by the use Of
a single broadcasting station. Also.
it is available at Christmas as well
as the Fourth Of July, and can be pro-
vided during sunshine or rain and
day or night. II is pointed out that
old-fashioned thunder, on the other
hand, is strictly seasonable, local In
scope and impossible to control.
For more than two months KOA
has been featuring a bi-weekly storm
with all its accompaniments, during
the MONDAY pipe organ recitals which
are broadcast from the Denver public
auditorium by Clarence Reynolds, mu-
nicipal organist.
aThe Storm, an unpublished com
position and arrangement by Mr..
REYNOLDS is heard as the closing fea-
ture of the Tuesday and Friday or
gan recitals and already has won I'M
preccdented applause from western ra-
do listeners.
"A brisk wind was blowing when
Mr.. Reynolds played his thunder
storm today" writes a blind listener
from Eastern Colorado. Il had TO
stick my head outside the house time
or two to make sure which storm was
which; n storm over radio or one out
side. IL Mr.. Reynolds could fool the
crops like he fooled me, we wouldn't
worry abount droughts%

Radio enthusiasm in Brazil is a
question of altitude. according TO
Philip X. Condict, vice president Of
the international Western Electric
company, who has just returned from
South America.
"In Rio de Janeiro, which Is on
the seacoast in a tropical climate, ,
Mr.. Condict says, "broadcasting has
not progressed with any great rapid
ity. In the state and city Of Sac
PaulO, at an elevation Of a thousand
feet or more above sea level, there
is widespread interest and good pro
grams are sent ont from a small.
twenty watt set. This, however, will
be replaced before the end Of the
year by a 1000 watt station.
"a 800 watt statiOn erected at Rio
three years ago is operating satisfac-
torilF, but the programs are not
particularly entertaining. Two other
stations in Rio are similarly handi-
capped.
"A number Of plans have been de-
velOped for improving the broadcast
ing facilities at Rio, but no definite
steps have been taken.

JERSEY CITY, Aug. pa nom
radiating and non-oscillating circuit
has finally been successfully achieved,
it is said. in the new F-5 type, which
is coming onto the market in a port

This circuit is q five-tube tuned ra-

to $50 meters. 1t consists of two
stages of tuned radio frequency am
plification. with tuned input to the

The receiver contains radio fire.

The new circuit is asserted to have
great distance-getting qualities, while
at the same time preserving ample Sc
lectivity. Particular attention has been
given to mechanical simplicity and
ruggedness to attain what is believed
to be an almost "foo,-proof" set.
The logging of the three tuning con-
trolls is affected only slightly by length
of antenna and the setting of these
three controls is practically the same
for a given station, making it possible
to supply with each set an approx
mate wave length celebration.
The antenna and ground wires, the
loud speaker and all batteries arr
housed in an artistic and durable case
fitted with a permanent carrying
handle of convenient form. The top, to
which the handle is attached, has been
removed in the photograph shown.
The portable measures 10 IA inches
