without giving way.
The soldering lug is 3 of an inch
long and when fastened to a terminal
it can be bent up TO different heights,
so that wire may be passed
through the hole in the lug at differ
ent heights above or below its point
of support.
This quality makes it especially de-
sirable when the wiring requires that
different wires cross each other at
different heights to prevent touching.
When these soldering .lugs are at
tached to terminals which are all to
be connected it becomes very
simple matter to place them all in
line with the holes all at the same
level; just run a wire through all the
| holes and touch little solder at
every hole.
The length of the soldering lugs
is also helpful in eliminating the pos
sibility of loosening connections on
transformers windings because of the
applications of heat very close to
such terminals.
Socket Terminals Explained.
In some cases two or more connec-
tions are required to a socket ter
ninal, as for instance, when the rotary
plates terminal of variable con-
denser is to be made to the positive
A battery lead, at the same time that
connection from the positive A bat
terry terminal is required to the posi-
tive F terminal of the socket.
In such cases, a soldering lug can
be slipped over the socket terminal
screw before it is run through the
socket from the top of the socket
down to pass through the subpanel
and another soldering lug can be at
tached to the screw after it runs
through the panel. Then the connec-
tion from the condenser or other
above subpanel terminal can be made
to the soldering lug on the top side
of the socket and the battery lead
connection can be made on the SOL
dering lug below the subpanel.
A little forethought in the placing
and bending of such terminals will
simplify the job of wiring consider
ably.

EUROPE TO HAVE
RADIO "DICTAT0R"
International Bureau to Be Formed
at Geneva for General
Supervision.
ny HAL O,FLAHERTY.

BY Cable to Tho Star and Chicago Daily News.
LONDON, April 9.-Arthur r. Bur-
rows, late director of programs for a
British broadcasting company, is pre-
pairing to leave for Geneva to assume
a unique and, in many ways, one of
the most influential positions yet de-
yeloped in world affairs-"director
of the International Bureau of Broad
casting.
To him has been assigned the task
Of co-ordinating Europe's broadcast
ing programs, and perhaps in future
for clearing the way for Europe to
listen in to America, Australia and,
in fact, to every country in the world,
fixing hours and wave lengths and
building up a universal exchange of
news.
The decision to establish interna-
tiona1 control at Geneva was reached
at a meeting of radio officials in Lon
don recently. Mr.. Burrows was chosen
for the post because of his wide ex-
perience and cease1ess efforts to i'm
prove Europe's broadcasting. He
declares the new bureau will have
important results.
II believe the bureau has great pos
sibilities or I would not have accepted
the position says Mr.. Burrows
"The international possibilities of
broadcasting in education and in
every other sense increase daily. To
understand the immediate functions
of the bureau one has only to look at
the daily programs appearing in the
press
Think what a great opportunity an
International bureau must have in

Will the radio ever seriously affect

with an eagle eye. I am not in the

my guess is that its emotions are
far removed from those of anxiety.
They are far more likely to be emo

and means of harnessing the magic
possibilities OF radio to the wondrous
facilities of journalism, which was a
magic art long before broadcastfng

How to Wire Your RADIO Set. fart "'
The single item of proper soldering
lugs can do more to take the bother
out of wiring radio set than any
other single item.
Many soldering lugs have one hoie
in them and have very snort eA-
tension to which wire can be soldered.
These are usually difficult to use in
making a good mechanical connection
because the only thing that holds the
wire and the lug together Is the
solder. One of the best aids to good
soldering, not only from the stand
