But few countries place a ban on

broadcasting stations and permits to
broadcast, however. are often reserved
to the citizens Of each country

FAILURE OF RADIO

Divergent Views in Senate on

Hope for the early passage Of radio
legislation by Congress is being aban-
doned in the Capital. as the Senate

has completed its hearings and has

the revised measure will be returned

Since the opening of the radio hear
ings in both the House and the SEN
ate. 1t has been evident that whatever
concerted opposition to radio legis-
lation existed at present would be
voiced before the Senate committee
rather than before the House. The d.
Vergent views also as to what form Of
legislation is needed at this time that
prevail In the Senate are expected to
form stumbling blocks for almost any

they have everything TO do with re-

Types of Controls.
Two controls Of the plate current
are within easy reach of any radio
fan, but the third control requires
practice IL best results are TO be had.
The filament rheostat Is one control
The tube filament must be heated to
certain temperature before It VIII op-
crate properly, and It must not be
burned too brightly. The second con-
troll is the plate voltage. Usually the
set Is wired so that the detector plate
voltage Is at a fixed point, but this
must be in accordance with the type OF
tube used And when the batteries
commence to give out 1t is necessary

balance between filament control, plate
potential and the negative space
charge
This space charge is the tendency
of the tube to retard the rate Of flow
of electrons from the filament to the
plate and thus to retard the flow of
plate current from the plate TO the
filament back over the bridge of elcc-
irons when the filament Is giving of
more electrons than the plate will
take. Usually the plate is wired for
a certain value. Suppose 1t can at
tract 1000 electrons per second SO
long as the fllamept does not give off
more than this number Of electrons
per second the space charge will not
be effective. When the tilament gives
of 1900 electrons, however. the space
charge effect is such as to send 200
electrons back TO the fllament per sec
ond. You can see, therefore that the
plate current is at its maximum when
the filament gives off as many cleo
irons as the plate will take. which Is
just below the point where the space
charge effect comes into play

these reverleS.
I'm back inside one of these magic

What's there to speculate about?"
l asked. Thought you knew all the
details of tube action?"
Smith was not so sure about It.
1T just has occurred to me-" he
said, that when these little electrons
start shooting off the heated filament
the tube ought to get SO filled up with
'em they would repel each other
Electrons, as 1 picture them. are mega
tive charges. Well now. If you get
the tube filled with them how are you
going to expect more electrons to
lump off the filament? Like charges
oppose each other"
That was true enough, but Smith
was overlooking the effect of the
positive charge on the plate of the
tube. The plate charge tends to at
tract electrons against their better
judgment. Their inclination to re-
turn to the tilament when they meet
a horde of their own kind in the tube
space is overcome by their natural
attraction for the positive charge i'm
pressed upon the plate by the "B
battery. Still Smiths speculating was
serving to introduce feature OF the
tube action that was new 10 him.
You have stumbled over what Is
known as the space charge" l told
him. 1t is a very important feature
of tube action because it is one of the
situations YOU must take into consid.

The amount Of current you apply to
the filament or to the plate has an
important bearing upon the space

 Hospital Patient

Mir. and Mrs. c. Arvid Larson Of 56 South Burritt street, are at the bedside of their son. Arvid Larson, in the Providence, R. l., hospital, where he was taken following an automobile accident Christmas eve. and where he has been in a semi conscious condition since that night.
 Larson, a mechanical engineer at Providence, and graduate Of Brown university. was returning to spend the holidays with his parents when his automobile skidded. To avoid accident he drew up on the roadside and was adjusting tire chains when another car bore down and skidded. knocking him a dis tance of nearly 50 feet. Larson's car was wrecked. At the Provid- ence hospital physicians found the local man had suffered a skull frac- ture and an injury to his car drum which will probably result in deaf ness in one ear.

 The article said that Father Boj- nowski stood at the church door prior to funeral yesterday morning and forebade members of the society to wear badges. The priest denied that he was at the church door or near it at any time of the day.
 T only know this" he continued. street, one member Of the rebellious faction came 10 good members of the society and tried 10 stir up dis sension but was told to go away"
 Father Bojnowski further stated that he would always uphold law and order to the best of his ability. Referring to an unruly element, Father Bojnowski said that one O.. his parishioners is an inmate of the state hospital for the insane at Mid dletown because of drinking liquor served at a picnic conducted by one of the societies.
 Tn the fifth ward since prohibit ton drunkenness has increased 100 per cent" he added. Before prohi- bition, there were some who drank. Now there are 100 per cent more, not only men but women, young girls and boys and, in some cases, children who attend school"
 Father Bojnowski also charged that after election and since Peter Pajewski became chairman of the police board, stores were allowed 10 remain open every day in the week.
