RUSSIA
OFFERS TOPAY
FRENCH DEBTS

PARIS, Sept. 23 QP-The soviet
proposals on debt payments and mer-
chandise credit upon which the de-
claration was made in Moscow that
the French and soviet delegations had
agreed, were delivered in Paris to-
night. y
The lS"oposals show that the soviet
government wants one and two third
times as much credit as it pays on
the debts during the first six years
while the French say that the Rus
sian note, indicated that their limit
was credits equal to payments during
a five year period
The note, which came from Soviet
Ambassador Rakovsky, was dated
Wednesday, but was delivered only
this evening to the French economic
delegation. 1t included none OF the
assertions made by Maxim Litvinoff,
chief Of the soviet delegations abroad,
who stated yesterday in Moscow that
full agreement had been reached
The ambassadors note, however, in
dicates that the proposals ought to
be acceptable to the French, although
(there is a wide divergence in the
amounts of credits provided for.
The soviet proposal is that 30,000,000
gold francs (about $6,0O0,O00) be de-
posted in a French bank within six
months as the starter on 81 annuities
OF 60000O00 gold francs on pre-war
Russian securities held by French
citizens and quoted on the Paris
bourse provided France grants total
of $12O000,00O commercial credits in
six equal yearly installments bearing
interest with each installment repay
able in six years.
interest on these credits would be
guaranteed in a manner yet to be
determined and 8 the : merchandise

NEW YORK, Sept. % tP)--College
football makes its 1927 debut ON
more than 100 oridirons throughout
the country tomorrow.
Hundreds CT new players, many new
coaches and the operation of a

exceptional interest for the getaway
and the annual claim for new at
tendance records stands in fair
way Of being fulfilled.
Alive in intersectional games, newly
drawn athletic relationships between
'intraSectional teams, the seasons
schedule appears to be the most at
tractive ever formulated. Only one
of the time honored perennials, the
big eastern spectacle between Har-
ward and Princeton, was missing.
The most drastic alterations to the
fundamentals of football, effected
last winter by the rules committee
present perpleXing problem for both
player and spectator in tomorrow's
games. The playing field has been
renodeled, the goal posts being
moved ten yards back OF the goal
line. A timing system has been
placed ON Rays, shifts and huddies.
Under this regulation only 80 seconds
may elapse between plays, is seconds
between the start of the huddle and
the start Of the play, and one second
between the shift and the start Of
the play. @
The Kicking team may recover a
fumbled kick, just as :; has been
permitted to do il the past, but
the player making the recovery no
longer is allowed 70 pick up the bali
and run with it.
Under the new rules governing the
lateral pass, which heretofore has
not been protected, the ball was to
become dead on incompleted lateral
or backward passes at the spot the

that they have mastered the elemen-
tary phases of radio theory. One has
to understand the meaning OF super.
heterodyne by regarding circuit so
named as frequency changer" cir
cult. Heterodyning does not mean
frequency changing but in hetero'
dyne circuit there is frequency chang
ing.
This may seem like a paradox but
1t should be obvious that when sig
nal is made to fit into the needs of
the circuit by playing off a locally gen
Grated beat against the natural beat
of the incoming radio energy, there is
a change in frequency. In that sense
a superheterodyne is n frequency
changer and 1t does this. as con
trasted with other frequency changes.

other with the special feature that
there is developed resulting beat to

Three Kinds Of Current.

It clears up a number Of radio mys-
teries to know that there are three
kinds Of electrical current. Briefly.
these are direct, alternating and pull
sating. Each plays part in the con.
ventionaf radio set, and in number
Of instances there are interesting and
complex combinations of these cur
rents.
Direct current is the source that
travels in one direction only during
its period of flow and which Is con.
stant, assuming that the source of
this current is similarly constant.
Alternating current. as its name sug-
gests, reverses its direction of flow
many times per second, ranging all the
way from alterations Of go cycles
per second. as in the case Of current
coming in over the house wires, to
over 1000, 900 alterations in the case
Of the carrier wave for broadcasting
purposes.
When alternating current Of high
frequencies comes in contact with di-
rect current, as in the case when radio
frequencies applied to the grid Of a
detector tube control the direct current

RADIO CODE TOPIC
OF MEETING HERE
International Radio Telegraph Con-
ference to Receive Report of
Special Committee.

One of the important questions to
be discussed by the forthcoming inter-
national Radio Telegraph Conference IN
Washington next month is that or code
language as used in commercial tele-
graph and radio telegraph communlca-
ton. Actually, this question Is one
left by the plenary sessions OF the IN
ternational Telegraph Commlttee at
Paris in 1925 for the next radio or
telegraph conference to decide. fol-
lowing the international telegraph ses-
sions a special committee to study the
code language proposals was appoint.
ed. 1t was composed of Is natlonal
representatives, headed by Giuseppe
Gneme, the Italian delegate, and met
last year at Cortina d'AmpeZzo. ltaiy:
The recommendations of this speclal
committee have now been filed with
the United States delegation for pres
entation to the delegates OF the Inter
national Radio Telegraph Conference py
the French government, which olrects
the Bern bureau Of the Telegrapn
Union. 1t is probable that the radio
telegraph delegates will discuss TINS
question prior to the regular sessions
of the radio conference, which opens
October 4. The proposals agreed TO
by IA representatives recommend tnat
code words be composed of no more
than five letters taken at the sender s
will without any conditions, the unit
rate applying to each and every woro.
This suggestion would take precedence
over the old use of words composed
of un to 10 letters and supposed TO
have been pronounceable. Inc onIy
country objecting to this proposal was
Great Britain, the delegates OF Whlcn
proposed the continued use or the ~
letter word code and the rule ABOUT
pronounceability until 1882.
According to the Cortina commlttee'

The Radio Division Of the Depart

publication of its annual list of COM
mercial and Government radio stations
In the United States. This list is cor
rected only to June 30, the end of the
fiscal year. and while practically up.to-
date for other stations Is not correct
as far as broadcasting stations are
concerned. A list of the latter stations,
arranged by frequencies and wave
lengths, however, has just been COM
piled by the Federal Radio Commis-
sion and may be procured by address
ing that organization.
The new commercial and Govern
ment list is available at the Govern.
ment Printing Office, through the
superintendent of documents for 25
cents. 1t includes all commercial ship
and land stations licensed on June 30,
as well as Governmental stations

stations, which are compiled in an

to their daily problems and future

Fortunately the Federal Radio Com
mission Is a firm believer in the value
IF radio broadcasting as an educational
auxiliary Of great promise. especially
in the agricultural districts, where
there has been real demand for re-
liable service. For this reason the
Radio Commission has looked with
upon the applications Of Middle State
and Western broadcasters for better
channels and higher power; in several
instances where 1t was possible both
improved wave lengths and higher
power have been granted for use in
the day time and early evening and
sometimes during the popular nightly
periods. Several other applications
are awaiting the pleasure and ability
of the commissioners to place them on
more favorable channels and perhaps
increase power. Naturally the farm.
ers, as we'll as urban listeners. and
probably more so, will benefit by the
general ALLEGATION made recently and
now practically established on sound
basis.
