The Trouble Shooter Says:

What sort of troubles Is the other
fellow having with his set?
II you've never considered this point
it's a good one to think over. You
never may have the other fellows
trouble with your present set, but
what of the set you will own next?
Some time ago ] made this sugges
ton to a friend and he turned it down
fat. Later he bought a set identical
with the troublesome one owned by
one Of these other fellows" in whose
affairs he had displayed no interest
whatsoever.
That made a difference.
A whole group of radioists may be
having certain difficulties. One manu-
facturer. for example, was obliged to
take back a number of sets because it
was found that they would not work
Any one of these might come into the
hands of a radio owner who wasn't
privileged to know about the general
difficulties. He would be a puzzled per-
son if that happened.
You seldom hear about the troubles
that other people have, and that is
why ] advocate looking about and
keeping your ears open. You can save
lot OF worry by having an advance
idea as TO the situation as other people
see 1t.
one advantage in this plan is that
it tends to show up human mistakes
as we'll as mechanical faults in the
sets themselves. The latter generally
are fewer by comparison.
One owner was having all sorts of
troubles, chief Of which was a hum
ming sound in the loudspeaker and a
harshness of reception that was any
thing but pleasant. Investigating this
I found that he was using too much
b power and also burned the fila
ments too brightly. That excused the
set.
Any other owner Of such n set might
experience the same trouble. But
would he solve IL promptly without
knowing the story / have just men
toned?

HOW TO PUT AWAY SETS,
Care Necessary to Keep Radios in
Best Possible Condition.

While putting the radio set up for
the Summer is about as unpopular as
laying up car for the Winter nova
days, nevertheless there are instances
where persons who are planning on a
lengthy trip, for example, wish to
leave their sets in the best possible
condition while they are away. A few
suggestions, therefore, may be in
order.
The storage battery should be sent
to service sta ton for care. The set
should be disconnected from the an
tenna. The receiver itself should be
placed In some part of the house
where 1t will not be subject to damp.
ness nor too great an amount of heat.
Ut should be kept in the light, but out
of the sunshine. II dry batteries are
used for the B current, they might be
sold to some active radio user.

TONE CONTROL EASY.
Rheostat Regulating "B" Elimi-
nator will Serve Purpose.

Some of the new sets feature what
is known AS a tone control. This is a
small knob usually located on the in
side of the set. While your set may
not have anything on this order. never
theless you have a very effective tone
regulator in the form of the rheostat
controls OH the B eliminator.
The one that regulates the cur
rent for the amplifier tubes often Is
sensitive. Just try adjusting it when
the set is running and note the differ
ence in tone. Where line voltages tend
to vary widely it is we'll to make an
occasional adjustment during a broad
cast just to be sure you are getting
the best from the set.

Private Transmission Claimed.

A new radio system, in which
strict privacy or secrecy may be MAIN
tanned for all transmitted news, has
been invented by Prof. ajorana of
the University OF Bologna, according
TO an announcement recently made.
1t is understood ultra violet rays Of
great wave length are employed.
Experiments in such transmission be.
tween Bologna and A station 10 kilo.
meters distant are said to have been
entirely successful.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1927-07-31

Gated this method as a standard for
several years. pointing out the bene-
fits of thus eliminating decimals and
having each frequency end in zero, the
listeners were slow to accept it. pre-
ferring to think in meters. But with
the recommendations of the Federal
Radio Commission. the adoption of
the 10-kilocycle separation between
frequencies and the added simplicity
of even figures, the fans are gradually
swinging over to use of frequencies.
Many publications also are adopting
this Technology in designation of sta
ton channels, Radio Broadcast having
Endorsed this scheme as early as in
August, 1925. The editor says he has
never received an objection to this
policy and believes the change was
an entire success.

KilocycIes Becoming Popular.

Apparently radio engineers and sci
entists have won their battle for the
use of kilocycles of frequency instead
Of the earlier method of designating
radio channels by wave lengths i'm me-
ters. Frequencies and meters. when
used in this manner, are compliments
of each other, in that when multiplied
they equal the constant speed of radio
waves, roughly 100000 kilometers per
second. This figure divided by meters
or kilocycles gives the other recipro-
cal.

Radio Accessories Due.

due to the crowded state of the ether.
Radio Accessories Due.
The day of the radio accessory Is
about to dawn. if it has not already
popped over the horizon.
Accessories IN the form OF new ana
interesting devices play a great part
in keeping the American public inter
ested i'm the automobile, and it is only
natural that with the radio industry
keenly alive to the need for constant
reawakening of interest on the part
of the public there should be many
new and useful devices in connection
with radio receiving to keep the ball
rolling.
Already there has been devised a
midget loud speaker which will play a
part in sick rooms. bedrooms and other
places where persons like to have Il
little radio. do not want it loud and at
the same time do not want to he both
cred with ear phones. This will illus
trate the new trend. Radioists are
interested i'll power accessories and
other important units only i'll so far
as they contribute to the actual better
ment of set operation but they do not
want to buy things which require a
lot of attention and which are not
seen by their friends Genuine novel;
ties in connection with radio receiving
will have a wide market at this time.
Among the new things which are
just around the corner in this connec-
ton may be mentioned various attrac.
tive lighting devices to add new pleas
ure and novelty to tuning in. Another
scheme would be a device that would
tell. by registering on dial, how far
from the receiver the station is when
it is being picked up. Also, just as
many homes carry barometers. Their
mometers and various other weather
telling pieces of equipment. so the
modern radio set in the very near fu-
ture may have static prophesier.
All these devices may be frills, but
that's what the public wants when
it's appetite has become somewhat
faded. There was time when few
wires. crystal detector and cheap
set of ear phones sufficed to thrill the
listener, but times have changed.

Fascism's Achievements
Fascism constructed in two years
the Rome-Ostia electric line, a project
planned for twenty years, designed
to give the people of Rome access to
their own seashore. Fascism con-
structed the Apulia aqueduct to sup
ply forty communes with an aggre-
gate population of 1900, 900 with wa
ter; is building the longest tunnel in
the world between Florence and

projects to be brought to success

tive and drive.
l came into Office q young man,
SO, the youngest premier Italy ever
had. I arrived with the force Of
youth. 1t was natural for me to be
able to undertake greater burdens
than the ministers of the old regimes
They could not stand the intense
physical strain-they were so. 20 and
sometimes 80 years of age. The com
bined ages of the men in my cabinet
total slightly over 200, while in one
of the cabinets of Signor Giolitti.
the total years of the ministers
reached LOO.
American Presidents, alas, suffer
greatly from the strain of office.
Roosevelt, however, during his in
cumbency stood II we'll and came out
of office a very strong man, for he
was young. He was, too, a believer
in g disciplined life and so am I. He
was wielder of the big stick"
which Is a fascist trait. He also was
man of quick decision and rapid
execution. He was an untiring work
err, too-a great administrator. He
was truly one of those who stood out
in bold relief in his generation and
cast his influence upon the entire
world.
My collaborators are all young
men. l have three under secretaries
of state, who have hardly passed 80.
There is a great advantage in youth.
1t is filled with enthusiasm to achieve.
1t may be argued that it, lacks ex-
perience. but it more than compen-
safes in it's intensity of spirit. 1t
will attempt the impossible and often
1t will succeed. Youth and the domi-
mating spirit of oneness with fixed
responsibilities and policy have been
of marked assistance to me, achiev-
ing what was never dreamed of I'M
