The experiences of the past season
and the indications of the coming
year are that there have not been and
are not likely to be any fundamental
changes in radio receivers which
would justify Il prospective purchaser
of a set in waiting any longer for
developments.
These facts are taken as being
mostly responsible for the large
Christmas sales of radio equipment
which are expected this month.

CHEVROLET co.
BUYS MAMMOTH
IRON FOUNDRY

W. S. knutson, president of the
Chevrolet Motor company, announces
that Chevrolet has taken over the
mammoth gray iron boundary of the
Saginaw Products company at Sagi-
nav, Michigan. The newest plant ac-
QUESTION Of the Chevrolet Motor COM
pany adds S4,500,000 institution to
the company's rapidly developing
manufacturing operations and pro-
vides Chevrolet with boundary facili-
ties second to none in the industry.
Mr.. Knudsen recently completed an
inspection tour of Chevrolet plants in
Detroit, Flint, Toledo, Saginaw, Tar
rytown and Bloomfield and points out
that the acquisition of the Saginaw
plant brings Chevrolet manufacturing
facilities to the highest point of COM
pleteness and efficiency yet attained.
After the first of December the
Saginaw foundry will be devoted ex-
clusively to the pouring of Chevrolet
castings. A new conveyor system and
other labor saving devices, recently
installed, give the plant melting ca
pacity of 300 tons of metal daily and
make it one of the most up-to-date
foundries in the world.
Outstanding among the features of
the large plant is the ingenuity with
which machines have been made to
perform the vast bulk Of foundry
work Specially designed mechanical
conyeyors shoulder practically all the
heavy burdens. Core manufacture, as
sembly and baking, the charging and
discharging Of the immense cupolas,
the pouring of moulten metal and the
cooling, cleaning and finishing of cast
ings all rely upon machinery more and
more. Human effort has been reduced
to minimum, resulting in increased
capacity and higher factor Of safety.
Buildings are of brick and steel con-
struction and allow 100000 square
feet of floor space. The plant en-
ploys 5000 people when operating on
capacity basis. Arnold LEM, one of
the foremost foundry experts in the
country, is in general charge.
Every day we hear of a Wall
Street broker getting broker still.
All the people who think they're
paid what they're worth could hold a
convention in an upper berth.

1928 SETS HAVE SAME CIRCUITS

The hundred or SO radio set manu-
facturers who have come out with
their 1928 specifications show that
there will be few important circuit
changes in the new models. Also the
majority of the sets will employ five
and six tubes as in the preceding sea-
son. The tendency remains to use two
or three stages of radio frequency
and two to three stages of audio fire.
quency and two to three stages of au-
dio frequency amplification.
The greatest feature of the new
sets is that they may usually be had
with or without the light socket
power arrangements. The percentage
of soeket-power sets in the newer
models shows a rapid rise in the pop
ularity Of that type.

Oh. I. asks: Can an ordinary
B battery eliminator be altered to
supply the C voltages also?"
Ans.-It would be possible to do
this by placing a tapped resistance
of about 1000 ohms across the output.
The B minus tap should be taken off
comparatively near the minus end of
the resistance. Then all taps ON the
plus side would be B plus taps and
those on the other side C minus taps.
The taps used should each have a by
pass condenser across them to the B
minus terminal.

GO T R. says: 81 have been us
ing by UV2O1A's for little over
year now, and while they are still
working well, I find that I have to
burn the filaments lots brighter than
l used to. Is this due to the ageing of
the tubes ,"
Ans.-Your tubes are probably get
ting older so that the electron ennis
sion is not as high as formerly. Have
them tested by some dealer. If they
need regeneration, you can probably
fix them up so that they will give lots
more good service.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Q-S. F. G. asks: "How does the
range of a set using an indoor loop
antenna compare with that of a set
using the regular outdoor aerial?
Ans.-If there are no unusually
poor conditions for either of the sets,
they should give about the same
range The advantage, if any, would
probably be with the loop set.

Transfer of Dorothy BeclxIey,
teacher, to Randall Junior High
school. from the Shaw Junior High
School. some weeks ago, and which
the teacher alleges is a demotion,
was made for the good of the
school system, and at the teachers
request.
Such is the reply Of the Board Of
EDUCATION, filed today in the Dis
trIRt Supreme Court.
The teacher has asked for a man.
damus to compel the board to re-
scind its action. She claims that she
was illegally transferred from the
Shaw Junior High School and given
history to teach instead of English,
Iii which she was better versed.
In q reply through Attorneys
Rudolph. II. Yeatman and May r.
bsgelow. the teacher denies that the
transfer was at her request. She
asserts that when she asked for q
change from the Shaw school, 1t was
that she might have q senior hign
school.

SUNDAY To END.
BALMY DAYS

Trees and flowers are getting a
little too rash to suit nature and
the weather man, and the conse-
quence is that we are going to see
an end to this balny weather by
Sunday.
Cold rains, March winds and a
general return to normal March
weather" is predicted by the Weather
Bureau, starting probably tomorrow
night or Sunday morning.
The fruit trees are much to far
advanced for safety" 1t was said at
the Weather Bureau today. There
is still danger of frost or winter
freezing spell, and If that comes. it
will do large damage to the spring
vegetation.
The warm weather now covers the
entire United States, with the excep-
ton of the Northwest.

FOR
|. CIVICAVVARDS

District Commissioner Sidney r.
Taliaferro today Endorsed the plan
for making annual awards for out-
standing public service by private
citizens, proposed recently in the
editorial columns Of The Washington
Times.
."It is splendid idea and deserv-
ing of serious consideration, Com
missioner Taliaferro declared.
1.-THE idea has been carried out
TO some extent in the past by nam
ing public schools after individuals
who have performed outstanding
public service.
1.-THE plan for giving awards to
living citizens for their outstand.
ing work is a new one to me and
so I have not yet studied the de.
tails of the plan, but I believe Il
would work"
Commissioner Taliaferro ez-
pressed the opinion that the plan
should be worked out entirely as
an unofficial project and that the
city government should not have .
part in it.
The civic award plan was pro.
posed editorially by The Washing.
ton Times last Saturday.

TRAFFIC LIGH I

Large quantities of traffic light
equipment ordered by the District.
but not used, and shipped in excess
OF the contracts to make up for
previous shortages, are on hand
here, it was revealed today when
the Bureau of Efficiency resumed
its examination of officials of the
company.
Bureau investigators are working
to determine precisely how much
of the material has been shipped in
excess of contract requirements, and
how much was ordered and was
not used.
We will check every single item

William III. McReynolds, assistant
chief Of the bureau.
MOIler to Be Called
At the same time, it was an.
nounced that Col I. G. Moller. sus.
pended assistant traffic director,
will be called before the bureau in.

pany until s o'clock this evening or
later" Mr.. McReynolds said. I'VE
had expected to conclude our, work
with them last night, but so much
information has been developed that
we cannot possibly close this phase
up yet
The shipments in excess of the
contract were made after the Con-
gressional investigation of the traf-
fic light scandal began last Deem
Der ,today's inquiry showed. At
this time. about % traffic control
lights were shipped to cover a
shortage in the first contract. the
evidence shows.
EIdridge Involved
The bureau has before it the origi-
nal copy of letter written by Col
onel Moller to the New York COM
pany advising it that much of the
equipment being shipped could not
be used by the District now and
might never be used.
1t has not yet been decided
whether Traffic Director nj o. Ed
ridge will be called before the inves-

more deeply implicated in the al.
legged violations as a result of the
discovery of letters to the Grouse
Kinds company, signed by him, di-
recting that the terms of the con-
tracts be ignored.
