Who PAYS For BrOadcasting?
BY K. M. SHERIFF.
(Radio Engineer)
-

radio reception may be worked on al
eight receivers simultaneously by the
use of one antenna. At the same time
radio transmission may be carried on
provided a second antenna is pro-
vided on the ship.
A battleship, for instance, located
off the coast of Virginia, has sent
radio-telegraph signals to stations in
San Francisco and San Diego, CAL.
while messages were being received
on five different frequencies. Trans
mission was effected on a wavelength
of 1880 meters and reception was &C.
coplished on 600, 1900, 4,4OO, 1890
and about 17,145 meters.
Duplex communication in this in
stance, was practicable by means of
a ten kilowat electron tube transmitte1
which emits a pure wave. With this
was used an invention, whereby as
many as eight receiving outfts-re-
spending to eight different frequencies
operate from one antenna.
The modulated continuous wave
transmitter used is the most powerful
vacuum tube sending outfit installed
on any vessel in the United States
navy department. This type of equip
ment is being installed on all battle
ships.
The new model transmitter in serv-
ince on the battleship Wyoming, has
yielded surprisingly gratifying results
Notable among the performances
made possible by the pure waves
smtted from this vacuum tube equip
ment, was the ability to receive radio
signals on a vessel at distance of
1000 yards when this transmitter was
operating at full power, on frequencies
each of which was only $50 different
from the wavelength of the received
signal.

Ten Episode Serial
Given From Denver

Denver, March 8.-What is regard
ed as the first mystery serial ever
presented over radio, "a Step on the
Stairs" is undergoing a ten-episode
tryout at KOA and other leading
broadcasting stations in cooperation
with Radio Digest, it is announced.
Based on early reports, staff men,
bers at the local broadcasting station

Ever since radio broadcasting be-
came established, there has been a
question OF who was to stand the enor-
nous expense involved. For a long
while no one was sure of the answer
and broadcasting appeared to be just
a fad and economically unsound. The
last year or SO has shown pretty con-
clusively, however, that the advertis-
ing properties of a good station are
much in demand, and that they will
bring in more than enough revenue
to meet the operating expenses.
The larger stations, especially those
In New York City, have exceedingly
high advertising rates. Station WEAF,
which leads all others for advertising
accounts and revenue, is said to charge
from $500 to $500 per hour. Yet this
more or less indirect advertising
furnished by the radio is so highly
valued that even at these high rates
the larger stations are booked full for
long time in advance.
Another large New York station is
said to carry advertising at the rate
of $500 per hour. Other stations
throughout the country charge stiff
rates for the use off their studios, and
rates for the use of their studios, and
mately $75 per hour.
In view Of the apparently enormous
value of radio advertising, it is a good
thing for the listener that the depart
ment of commerce has gon on record
as opposing anything except the Gin
direct advertising"

the Australian premiership. Mr.. Bruce
Is a native-born Australian. He was
educated in England, however, at
Cambridge University, and the old
grads still recall how he helped row
his varsity to victory against Oxford
in 1904. Leaving school. he took a
brief fling at the English bar, but left
that when the war came to accept a
captaincy ana take part in the CALI
poll offensive, where he was twice
wounded. That he was a thorough
soldier is attested by the military
cross and the croix de guerre which
he possesses.
After the war he returned to busi'
ness in Australia, then entered poll
tics. He ignored the taunts OF his enc
mics. who charged him with being a
political amateur" and eventually
achieved cabinet rank. Then came the
unsought premiership. Almost at once
he made his first bow to the British
public as a. prime minister when he
came to England in 1928 to attend the
last imperial conference.
Mr.. Bruce's hobby is golf, and when
he is at home he reserves one day

SCIENCE SUPPORTS HUMAN
IMMORTALITY, SAYS EDISON

Human Immortality is supported by
scientific evidence, according to
Thomas A. Edison, who announces
his changed views on the subject in
the November number Of the Forum.
The interview, which has been au-
thorized and revised by Mr.. Edison,
is written by Edward Marshall, 10
whom Is years ago Edison conf1ded
his denial of immortality which
startled the Christian world.
Today Edison says that. though we
still lack sufficient data for definite
conclusions, nevertheless such scien-
tific evidence as does exist Is on the
side of Immortality Instead Of scott
ing at the idea that the life Of the
soul may be eternal, he now asserts
that there Is nothing to which the
practical intelligence need object in
the conception Of Immortality. And
he insists that it is the duty of re-
ligiouS leaders to set to work to
gather together the evidence bearing
| on the question, and make sure that
| it is such evidence as no foolish
| skepticism can overturn. He thinks,
however, that If science ever succeeds
| in determining the facts, it may have
to choose another term more definite
and descriptive of eternal life than
the present immortality"
AS a scientific man. Edison well
knows that it is impossible to destroy
material things. The forms of matter
may change, but matter itself is In
destructible. Is it reasonable, then,
to assume that the soul, which is i'm
mortal, can ever be destroyed?
Edison also points out that there
are even now certain forms of life
which maintain themselves on earth
for almost incredibly long periods.
This is because they are in environ
ments peculiarly suitable to their
needs. Edison thinks it possible.
therefore, that the human soul might
also maintain itself for long periods,
perhaps forever. in an environment
specially suited to it.
Much OF the alleged wisdom of the
past. he points out, seems ridiculous
today when viewed in the light of
modern knowledge. Perhaps the time
may come when certain modern
skepticisms will look equally foolish.
Our great lack today, in Edison's
view, is the absence of adequate data
on which to base more definite con.
illusions as to mans immortality. |e
pointed out to the interviewer two
reasons why this lack exists. One is
that so far no one has worked out
= really good method of beginning
scientific investigation of the immor-
tally question-which sounds as
though Mr. Edison were not a believer
in spiritualsm. The other is that the
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1926-10-17

soul does not seem to be an entity
which can be analysed. weighed,
photographed or recorded by any in
strument whatever.
The interview offers a striking con-
trast to that which Mr.. Edison gave
to Edward Marshall in 1910. In his
interview of Is years ago Mr.. Edison
said frankly, II cannot believe in the
Immortality of the SOUL" adding:
This speculative idea of immortality
needs but be analysed to fall wholly
to the ground" He then asked,
Soul? Soul? What do you mean by
soul? The brain?" and answered his
own question by saying. 1.-THE brain is
a piece of notwithstanding
more than a wonderful meat-mech-
anism.' Though he believes today
that scientific evidence favors i'm
mortality, Mr.. Edison said in 1910,
that there Is no more reason to be-
lieve that any human brain will be
immortal than there is to think that
one of my photograph cylinders will
be immortal"
In certain sense, however,
EdiSon's present views represent
progress in his earlier opinions rather
than reversal Of them. For even
in 1910 he was saying, Il don't go
into the study of the psychic much.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1926-10-17

There is great field there, great
fleld-for other men,"
One Of the chief difficulties that
Edison found in accepting immor-
tally in 1910 was the fact that the
human body is not really single
individual, but is composed of in
Vulnerable tiny cells.
Shall I, if l am good and earn
reward. go to Heaven when 1 die?"
he asked. mo, no. I am not. IL
am not an individual. 1 am an aggre-
gate of cells, as for instance, New
York City is an aggregate of indi-
viduafs. Will New York City go to
Heaven?" AS a matter of fact. that
doesn't seem likely!
Together with Edisons views on
immortality, the Forums interview
also contains some new ideas in re-
ligion. The great inventor announces
that he is a firm believer in the
Christian moral code, which he says
in confirmed by the study of nature.
He thinks unselfishness and the
Golden Rule are the essence of true
religion, and that the churches of, the
future will lay aside creeds and cere-
monies. He says that he would not
willingly undermine the faith of any
man.

CLEVELAND, Ohio, Oct. s. A.
Phillip Randolph, organizer for the
colored Pullman porters, spoke here
recently on organization to "a large
audience at the big Zion Baptist
church, colored.
1.-THE Pullman porters are entitled
to real wages" Randolph said. Their
work is as much social work as any
other. They do not want to be beg
gars and dependent for their living
on the tips that are handed to them
by travellers. The Pullman porters
must be unionized just as well as all
the other workers on the railroads and
IL there we're a strong union of Pull
man porters it would strengthen i'm
measurably the railroad brotherhoods
and all the unions Of the railways.
1.-THE white workers look upon the
colored workers largely as scabs, and
this is due naturally TO the fact that
since the Negro workers are unor-
ganized they are wanted in times Of
strikes, as Involuntary strike-break-
ers.
White and Black Must Join.
"The white workers sooner or later
will be forced to the realization that
there can be no real organization in
