ulation issued regarding the wire
less transmission of pictures permits
the use of certain of the amateur
bands at certain hours for expert
mental work with the Jenkins APP
paratus for radioing stir pictures
Similar permission is given the Radio
Corporation of America for its trans
mission Of pictures and photogra phs
on the higher wave lengths outside
the broadcast bands. Neither of these
two forms of transmission has been
found to cause any interference with
the entertainment of broadcast list
eners.
In his work with the transmission
of moving pictures Of radio vision"
DIR. G. Francis Jenkins. has been
given infrequent permission to use
such bands as are necessary in his
research. The Jenkins experiments.
however, are still in the labora tory
stage and no transmission over dis
tances of more than few miles has
been attempted.
Other forms of broadcast pictures
have not been able to develop suff1-
Gent speed TO reproduce through the
air a moving picture or film. which
would cause the producers of the
country's movies any fear that their
works could be distributed to the
home instead of receiving presenta-
ton only in theaters.

The Carborundum DetectOr. Part H.

To illustrate the foundation upon
which the action Of crystal detector
in q circuit is based. let us suppose
that we. have a circuit consisting of a
battery of constant voltage, a variable
resistance and an ammeter, as shown
in Fig. ].
With constant voltage source, the
amount of current flowing in the cir
cult and indicated by the ammeter
will be governed by the amount Of re-
sistance introduced into the circuit
by the resistance according to Ohm s
law. The greater the amount of re-
sistance cut into the circuit the less
will be the current flowing in the cir
cult
Reversing the polarity Of the battery
in this particular circuit will have no
effect on the amount of current flow
ing in the circuit. All that the change
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1926-02-23
Cuts Current Flow to Lowest.

Cuts Current Flow to Lowest.
The result Of having a small resist
ance when current is flowing in the
direction indicated by the arrows Will
be to cause q heavy current because
of the small resistance in the circuit,
while when the current reverses, the
greater resistance of the "B" resist
ance cuts down the current flow to a
minimum.
This Is exactly the action that takes
place in crystal detector. During
one-half of the cycle, the resistance
of the crystal is very low and current
flows easily through the crystal, but
during the other half of the cycle the
resistance is increased considerably
and very little current is allowed to
flow, thus producing rectification.
A crystal is a poor rectifier when
the resistance 1t offers to current flow
ing In either direction is about the
same. 1t Is a good rectifier or a sensi-
tive detector when the difference in
the resistance it offers to current flow
Ing in one direction to that offered to
current flowing in the other direction
is very great. The amount of current
it allows to flow in either direction Is
not as important as the difference be-
tween the current it allows to flow in
one direction, as compared with the
amount that flows in the opposite di-
rection.

LONDON, December % R).-Prince
Chichibu, second son of the Emperor
of Japan, was on the high seas en-
route homeward when his father died.
He is on board the steamer Majestic.
which Is due to reach New York next
Tuesday from Southampton. and he is
expected to reach Toxic, January Is.
Chichibu, Japan's sports prince"
has spent the past Is months travel
ing and studying in England and on
the continent. The Prince. who is
"a years old and unmarried, was a
student at Magdalen College, Oxford
University, from last October until his
departure this week.
The Prince was familiar figure at
Oxford as he passed about in the
execution Of his academic duties,
carrying his books under his arm and
wearing the rough sports clothes
which are popular among the stu
dents. He specialized in the English
language and literature, also eco
nomics and politics.
Chichibu was keen oarsman, being
a member Of one of the oxford tours
He played tennis and golf rode horse
back and participated last year in
Winter sports in Switzerland until
he contracted the measles.
The Prince had planned to visit the
King Of Spain this month, but his
fathers illness compelled him to
cancel the arrangements. He hopes.
however, to return to Oxford for the
Summer term.
