All the large dynamos that fur
nish the power to run our street and
interurban cars, light our houses
and streets, and furnish electric cur
rent for a thousand other purposes,
owe their existence to the epoch
making discovery OF Michael Fara-
day in 1881. Faraday found that
when a wire connected with a cir
cult ready to carry electricity is
moved with a circuit ready to carry
electricity is moved quickly across
the space in front of the pole Of a
magnet an electric current is set up
in the wire and thus In the entire
circuit. The current continues only
during the motion. Faraday thus
discovered how an electric current
can be produced by mechanical work.
The only electric currents known
previous to this great discovery were
the small currents from voltaic cells
or the very feeble currents from
thermocouples. The dynamo is a
machine based upon Faraday's dis
covery, in which electric currents
are generated by moving wires con-
tinuously across the space in front
Of a magnet. Instead OF moving the
wires, the magnet may be moved in
reference to the wires.
The essential part of a dynamo
are, then, the magnet, and the sys-
tenn of wires in which the currents
are generated. The system Of wires
Is wound on an iron core and is
called the "armature." In all large
dynamos the magnet, called the
field magnet" Is an electric mag
net because electromagnetic can be
made much more powerful than
steel permanent magnets.
The field magnets Of some Of the
earlier dynamos were permanent
steel magnets, and such machines
were called magneto-electric mach
ines or "magnetos." The little dy-
namos used in telephone call boxes,
and in some automobiles are mag
netos. Either the armature or the
field magnets revolve. 1t Is more
usual in large dynamos to revolve
the field magnets about the fixed
armature. In small dynamos the
armature is usually the moving
part. The power to drive the dyna-
mo may be from a steam engine, a
steam turbin, a gas engine, or from
water wheels. The electrical engi-
neer can design the dynamo for
any given current and potential"
pressure, If he knows the kind of
iron in the magnets and the design
will tell the speed of the machine
and the size Of each part. 1t is
very common to make the parts Of
large dynamos such as for the Nj
agara Falls plant, and not put them
together until In the power house
hundreds of miles distant from the
shop where they were made. The
design will be so perfect that the
dynamo will give the required power.
almost without exception.
To connect the moving armature

this had the effect OF throwing the
sounds in one direction only, keep
ing them away from distractions at
sea bottom and in addition adding to
their secrecy by transmitting them
along one path.
Further secrecy is maintained by
tuning the receiving and trans
hitting instruments to the same
secret short wave, so that no enemy
transmitter could receive them.
Sends and Receives
And still further proof against
enemy reception is the fact that the
instruments are such that they can't
be tuned TO any other wavelength.
Enemy apparatus of a similar ma
ture. therefore, could not receive sig
nails from American submarines I'M
less they not only knew the wave
length on which our signals were
transmitted, but had installed instru-
ments mechanically tuned to this
wavelength, and unless they were
actually in the line Of direction Of
the transmitted wave.
Since the wave can't be heard, as
sent out. it is heterodyned down to
audible signals, much~in the same
verted to audible waves.
Each instrument is not only re-
ceiver, but it can be used as trans
mitter. with no conversion of con-
nections, or any change. For In
stance, a message is sent out from
the diaphragm Of one submarines
instrument to that of another. These
diaphragms are extended below the
vessel by means Of a waterproof pipe
and can be rotated to any direction
desired.
The short waves are shot out in
one direction to the diaphragm of the
receiving submarine, which picks up
the waves-waves OF ultra.audible
sound, not Of radio-and transmits
them to the special instrument
which in turn converts these waves
to audible sounds in an ordinary
telephone receiver. The person hear
ing the message, can then talk into
a telephone transmitter, through the
same instrument that received the
first sounds, and flash them back in
the same way that the other signals
came.
The range Of sound vibrations that
are audible to the human ear is from
80 to 10000 kilocycles. The ultra
sound waves in use by DIR, HAYES in
struments have a pitch as high as
10000 kilocycles at times.
Since sound travels almost per-
fectly through salt water. DIR. Hayes
explains, it is much easier to send
these high pitched notes over dis
tances of two miles or even more
than 1t would be through air. So the
invention is especially applicable to
submarine communication.

NEW YORK, April 5.-The mar
ket opened fairly active, with some
irregularity. Public utility shares
and some of the retail group were
higher Columbia Gas got to u.
the best price so far on the rally,
while Philadelphia Company showed
further gains and strength on heavy
selling, up more than points to
74%.
It was announced that the merger
of Texas Company and California
Petroleum was off. Texas Com
pany opened slightly higher at 81,
while California Petroleum from an
opening Of 80 sold down to 32h,
where it was off nearly 5 points
from Saturdays high,
Further recovery from the early
lows took place in several of the
leaders in the noon dealings, General
Motors, and General Electric profit
ing. However, the general list was
extremely quiet, causing interest to
center in specialties. international
Mercantile spurted points to 1914.
Philadelphia company was another
feature Of special strength, moving
up 32s to 74B This gain was part
ly based on the company's excellent
1925 showing when net for the com
mon amounted to $40 a share
against $3.50 in 1924.

with the external wires and thus TO
the lamps, motors or other machin-
cry, there is q "commutator" or "col-
lector rings" The comnutator is a
device on the shaft by which the
currents generated in the armature
are furnished to the external wires
or circuit always in the same direc-
ton. Such a dynamo is called "di-
rect-current" dynamo or for short a
I'D. c." dynamo. In another type of
dynamo, simple collector rings are
used to lead the current of the ma
chine to the external circuit; IN this
type the currents are reversed III di-
rection many times in a minute
Such dynamos are called "alternat-
ing current" dynanos or "alterna-
tors" The parts resting on the re-
volving commutator or collector
rings are called brushes" ana are
usually made OF gas carbon.
Practically all large dynamos used
in modern power plants are alternat-
ing current machines. There are
several reasons for this general use
of alternating currents, but the prin-
cipal reasons are that by the use OF
the transformer" alternating cur
rents can be changed to suit condi-
lions of service, smaller wires can
be used IN the transmission lines, and
the acknowledgements motors are
simpler and more reliable than the
direct-current motors. Alternating
currents with sixty reversals of di-
rection per second, called sixty-cycle
currents, are commonly used in our
power stations.

IN 7HEATER SAFE
Bristol Playhouse Robbed After
Last Nights Performance
HAMMER OPENS STRONG BOX
Crooks Believed to Have Remained
In Building After Show-Noise of
Traffic And Trains Dcadened the
Noise OF Blows.

Bristol, Nov. 10 - After having
suspended their activities in the city
for the past several weeks, burglars
became active again last night by
breaking open the safe in the office
of the Bristol theater and getting
away with about 1880 in cash. the
receipts of the afternoon and the two
evening performances.
Police do not believe the break to
be the work of professional yegg-
men, due to the fact that the safe
was not blown. 1t is believed that
a heavy hammer was the only in
strument used, the burglars breaking
off the combination and pounding
the rod. which runs from the dial
to the inner mechanism. until II
dropped off inside. No tools were
left by the burglars, who must have
been obliged to work for a consid-
cradle period before the safe was
opened in response to their efforts.
The break was discovered at
about o'clock this morning when
Peter Perfetto. the janitor, entered
the building.
Detective Sergeant Daniel McGilli-
ouddy, who was detailed to the case
by Chief Ernest Belden, found that
the only door which had been forced
was the one leading from the lobby
to the office. The doors leading
from the lobby to the street were
secured and a further investigation
Of other exits showed that they were
also locked. For this reason 1t is
believed that the burglars secreted
themselves in some part OF the
building after the close Of the eve
ming performance at 1915 and re-
manned hidden until the employees
had left.
The Bristol theater is located al
most directly across the street from
the Perl Hotel and short distance
away on the same side of the street
is a restaurant. Apparently the
patrons OF these establishments
heard no suspicious, noises and 1t is
probable that the burglars did their
hammering when the sound would
be drowned by the noise OF passing
traffic both on the street and on the
railroad tracks in the rear.
1t is understood that the loss to
the management Of the theater is
partially covered by theft insurance
