SUN DANCE ENDS,

Kansas City, July q P)-North-

Arriving by cayuse-drawn wagons,
luxurious automobiles and by train,
representatives of twenty-eight Pa
cific northwest tribes are assembled
at Spokane for their second annual
conference which will be attended
by state and government Indian Off
Gals. The program includes discus
sion of federal fund allotmcnts,
sports an Indian baby clinic and
beauty contest. The squaws have
organized a women's club-"The
Eagle Feathers club''-which they
hope will be accepted into the city
and state women's federation clubs.

Andrews Called as First Witness
Before Judiciary Committee

Washington-The Coolidge admin
tstration believes the American people
are not ready to consider repeal or
modification of the prohibition act de-
spite the result of the recent news
paper polls. Administration leaders
admit that there is genuine move
ment against the Volstead act, but do
not feel that it has reached such size
as to become party problem. A
spokesman for the administration
told the press that, although the news
paper polls showed an overwhelming
sentiment for change in the prohi-
bition law, the pivoted states are little
concerned over prohibition in the
coming primaries and elections.
Assistant Secretary L. G. Andrews
of the treasury, in charge of the dry
enforcement organization, was sum-
moned as the first witness to appear
before the senate judiciary committee
at hearings on bills to modify the pro-
hibition laws.

good results, the secondary winding
Of large-sized audio transformer.
This stipulation is made to insure the
use of an impedance coil having
enough turns of wire and core iron to
pass all the audio frequencies.
CA is the coupling condenser for the
first stage. A condenser as small as
.002 MID will answer fairly well here,
but better results are obtained both
as to volume and range of musical
tones If the condenser is made at OF
mid. or even up to 05 MID. A grid
leak resistance ri of / megohm or IA
megohm is required to properly bias
the grid of tube To and to prevent 1t
from becoming choked with negative
impulses Instead of the impedance
just described, a coupling resistance
is adopted for the second stage, since
this is even better than an Importance
when it comes to passing all the mu
steal frequencies.
Power Stage.
Resistance RI should be approx
mately 100000 ohms (O.1 megohm).
Such resistances can be purchased in
the form of an ordinary grid leak and
all the essential resistances may be
snapped into regular resistance clip
holders. These holders, which come
with the resistances r2, should be well
made in order that the heating effect
of the "B" battery current that must
pass through it may not alter its re-
sistance and cause noises or distor-
ton. Condenser C5 is just like CA.
The grid leak re- should have resist
ance of about Il megohm (25O000
ohms) to properly bias the last tube
and prevent overlooking or choking.
Tube T3 is II ampere power tube,
used because it's greater power will

Now for few remarks about the
battery and filament circuits. Rheo-
stat RI takes care of lighting the de-
tector and first stage tubes tt and To,
while rheostat RI handles the power
tube. A snap switch S, located at the
left end of the panel, serves to turn
the set on and off. Thus the rheo-
stats may be maintained at the proper
points permanently.
A AZ volt co. battery Is employed,
as indicated. Three 45-volt "B" units
are required.

In Radio World

In had10 w ORD.
Listeners who prefer moderate vol
ume, combined with almost perfect re-
production, will be interested In the
simple entertainment receiver to be
described. The faithfulness Of it's tone
output is dependent upon the system
of audio frequency application,
which, in this set, is a combination of
a stage of impedance-coupled amplifi-
cation and stage Of resistance
coupled application
In addition, the use of the half
ampere power tube is considered in
the last stage. Since this tube re-
Quires about 1875 volts of 'B" battery,
the use of resistance coupling calls for
no additional plate voltage. Imped-
ance coupling is adopted for the first
stage since this provides superior de-
tector action and greater detector out
put. Moreover, with good imped-
ance coil for the first stage, the quality
is good. A honeycomb system of tun-
ing is shown, with primary coil made
unnecessary by the expedient of EN-
ploying a small fixed condenser as the
coupling medium. Thus the assembly
of the outfit is not difficult. The out
put of volume is rot so great as can
be obtained by the use of more tubes
and more audio application, but on
this very account it's tone qualities are
better and its operation more pleasing

the effect becomes serious and results
will depend on the amount of the re-
sistance involved. Well-grounded OBJ
jects will act as a shield and will re-
fleet or absorb incoming waves so
that the energy is lost to the antenna
Even though this energy is not abb
sorbed to great extent by the OBJ
jects, current will be set up in them
which will give rise to a reradiation
and will be frequency or wave
length in proportion to the natural
period of the object. This can, of
course, be picked up by the receiver
at different point on the dials.
1t is advisable to keep the antenna
clear of any metal objects and at right
angles to gny wires. etc. Loop re-
ceivers cannot be operated in a room
which is shielded with metal lath.
Reception can be improved by bring
ing a short outside antenna into in
ductive relation with the loop. The
lead-in itself can sometimes be laid
over the loop.

FARM AID COST
Awaits Definite Figures Before
Taking Stand on Govern
mental Action.

Washington-Befor taking posi-
ton on pending farm surplus legisla-
ton, President Coolidge desires addi-
tional information as to the cost Of
the proposed measure.
The President, it was stated at the
White House, has requested officials
of the treasury and agriculture depart
ments to prepare estimates of the &C
tual cost of the bill under considera-
ton by the house committee on agri-
culture, which provides $3.50, 100000
revolving fund.
With these figures as basis, the
President may take definite position
on the bills under consideration. So
far he has refused to give his sane
ton to any bill which would put the
government into business in dealing
with the farm surplus problem.

Senate Kills The Goodinq Bill

Washington-The senate rejected,
46 to 80. the Gooding long and short
haul bill. Thus representatives of the
intermountain territory again lost in
their 40-year fight to prevent trans
continental carriers from granting
lower rate for hauls to Pacific coast
ports than to intermediate points.
Two years ago the senate passed a
similar measure, 54 to %, but it failed
of action in the house. Senators from
every section of the country were d.
vided on the measure, which was nom
partisan in nature. Two senators
from the inter-mountain territory
Phipps and Means of Coolrado-voted
against the bill. Likewise there were
divisions among senators from the
south, the middle west, west and east.

Some Antenna Hints
for Better Reception

The radio listener, and especially
those living in the large cities, are
hampered sometimes to very great
extent by the presence of shielding
objects, such as steel-framed build
ings, metal-lathed rooms, guttering,
etc. These obstacles are so often
overlooked entirely that they greatly
affect reception of all kinds, and some
times render a receiver completely
imperative. These conditions can be
remedied to a great extent by improv-
ing the antenna and ground systems
of the installation.
Moderate-size metal objects within
close proximity to the antenna and
which are insulated from the ground,
will not affect the efficiency of the re-
ceiver. It will In all probability alter
the natural wave or frequency of the
antenna, which will. of course, change
the tuning. Such objects as metal
window frames, screens. etc., do not
affect conditions materially, provided
their nonmetaIIic surroundings or sup
ports are dry.
